that's fine, blood him slowly with Miller as his caddy. But you can't have Demelo, Ristolainen and Pionk all signed for 2+ years. Seems like bad roster management. Should be fine with DD, RR, Miller and Salo going forward.


What does JFresh say about Farabee?
I've really come around on Ristalainen. I'd make that kind deal and let Pionk walk but that's me. Not how our club typically does business.

Farabee's metrics this year have been awful, after a couple of decent seasons. Not sure the Flyers would sell low on him, though.
 
How long has Risto been good in Philly? This is last season...

If they do trade for a RHD with term, like Risto, Pionk's on his way out.
You realize that if we did actually acquire Risto the more likely scenario is we still re-sign Pionk and in 2 years people around here are complaining about how Chevy blocked Salo with the Risto trade.

Tuch doesn’t want to leave the buffalo area.

Sabres don’t have a lot of top players who want to stay and play for the home town/region team

Don’t get me Wrong - I’d welcome tuch
And no one is untouchable, trades can be forced etc

But if he has his way - and his current situation is he does have his way - he’s not going to move or be moved

He has a 5 team NT list. Even if we are not on it, do we want a guy who wants to be someplace else? A guy who will be a UFA after 1 more year?

How the Jets do business is they are very okay letting prospects develop at lower levels on their ELCs. Risto's contract perfectly aligns with Salo's ELC, so they can acquire Risto and never risk losing Salo to waivers. If they acquire him with retention he becomes a very affordable and above average 3rd pairing RHD for the next 2 1/2 years.
 
So apparently, at this NJ / Philly game this afternoon, there were 14 teams, 15 scouts present. Winnipeg was the only team that sent two scouts rather than one.

Scouting both teams. :laugh:

Edit: We'll take Kova off NJD hands so that they will have room for Nemec and Frost from Philly so that they will be free to find some other dog to kick.

I thought I heard last season that Chevy had some interest in Morgan Frost?

If you're going to keep Ehlers with Lowry and Iafallo/Appleton, you could run a bottom 6 of:

Nino Frost Perfetti
Names Kupari Iafallo/Appleton

Not sure why Chevy would be looking at a RHD with term unless either they know Pionk is walking or they want to slow-roll Salo
 
I'm taking Pionk over Risto all day long.

If we are trading for a RHD, why don't we pay the price and go after Andersson from Calgary?
That gives us DD to play on the 3rd pairing with Stanley/Heinola/Fleury and really shores up that 3rd pairing. It also makes Miller our 4RHD and that's not bad depth.
Then, I'd pry Cozens out of Buffalo at 1m retained. We might have to give up DD in the Cozens trade.

KFC Scheif Volare
Nino Cozens Perfetti
Names Lowry Ehlers
Iafallo Kup Apples

Mo- Andersson
Sammy- Pionk
Fleury/Heinola/Stanley- DD

You rate Chibrikov higher than Yaeger and Lambert?
I'd agree with him there.

He just seems to have a more pro style game than Lambert. Just a grittier player.

Yager I'm not sure I'd say he is probably more important to us because we need a 2C and he could be that one day.
 
Good first period. Jets were moving well.

Kadri is still a weasle

Feels like we might get goalied type game.

Flames neutral ice set up on the PK was unique. Really high, two layer above the blue line

Atmosphere wants to be fun.
