Yup.

I doubt that Dahlin/Powers ever become available, but I could see Byram, Samuelsson, Tage, and Cozens all potentially being on the table if things go really poorly.
Not going to lie. I was imagining this when I posted that:

Total and complete head scratcher. No idea what they were thinking.
From repeating "no goal" to the post-1999 Cup press to calling out his Devils by name to post game press. He's seems like a whiny baby.

Peyton Krebs’ name has come up on this board before. Anyone still have interest in him?

He’s not a flashy name like some of their other guys but he’s still a young former 1st rounder that might do well with a change of scenery. Wonder if he could be a buy-low candidate that could help us out at the Center position.

I wouldn't mind it. Gives us a 2/3 Tweener who can play 2C until Dvorsky forces him into the 3C spot.

Tho, his production leaves a lot to be desired

Every time I see or hear Peyton Krebs, I always think of the Krebs cycle in the mitochondria. Glucose, dude.
 
No Four-giev tonight for the Avs as they pull him after he allows 3 goals on 9 shots. He's cooked.

First goal wasn't his fault. The next two were brutal goals to give up. Credit to Johnson and Fantilli, they were great shots to come with speed, an pick the opening with a hard snap shot, great shots. But they were shots that just absolutely have to be stopped from that angle, position, etc..
 
Husso sucks ass. I remember when some fans were saying we kept the wrong goalie. That convo didn’t last long because it’s not even close.

In fact it’s interesting to look back on all those trades with Detroit and how people thought they were making such good moves with us. I mean now, the only trade they won is the Fabbri one and he’s not even there anymore. The Leddy trade is looking real good for us especially since we got Sundqvist back anyways, and they had to give Walman away.

I must admit, I thought we handily lost the Leddy trade at first, but it’s turned out good for the Blues.

Husso is a case study on the unpredictability of goalies. He looked so damn good that one season, well until the playoffs. He was up and down his first year in Detroit and it sounds like he's been lost since then. It's a shame too because he seems like as cool guy and I want him to have a productive career. But I fear he's already peaked.

Walman is another case study. I bet a lot of players would look good if they got consistent ice time with great players but sooner or later their true colors will come out. I always felt like he was just a guy when he was with the Blues and turns out he is. He also seems like a good guy though and I hope he can grow with that San Jose team.

Samulsson if healthy, is exactly a fit. Under rated and solid in all defensive aspects.

Plus, he's had groin and core injuries, which has completely sapped his quickness.

Oh me too. I thought it was an overpayment and I was wrong about that trade.

I’m really glad we didn’t let one slip away in Walman. It looked like we might have for a short bit but as someone else mentioned, he’s JAG.
