It would be pretty funny if Sakic signed PTO's with 8 "veterans" just to ice them against Minnesota in that back-to-back with a few AHL scrubs.James Neal Pto incoming.
Okay see, this is an example of wearing burgundy-colored glasses.
Yeah, it's just a PTO, but if--heaven forbid--JJ actually signs, then it's an indictment on Joe's (and/or the Pro scouts') ability to adequately evaluate talent.
Jack, as much a his personal story re: his parents f***ing him over financially breaks my heart, is not a good NHL hockey player anymore. Hell, he might not even be a good AHL player at this point.
Obviously the games have to be played, but to me it's looking more and more like last year might have been their best shot at a Cup, and what we're seeing is Joe hanging on to this MacKinnon-contract window before having to re-tool when he re-ups.

Even if he did get signed there’s no way he’s making more than basically league minimum.Relax, Sakic hasn't signed him to an actual contract. The capspace is still very much available.
Besides, even IF he did get a contract his caphit wouldn't be higher than other 7D's so the impact on our cap structure would be zero. The only issue would be that he's worse than our other 7D options.
At least Nuke was like 24 at the time. JJ is old and past it.Let’s hope this goes like the Nichushkin signing in 2019.
That thread and this one is running in parallel.
Newhook is not Saad's equal. An 8 game sample is not indicative of a full season and playoffs.Well, he's only 34, so who knows, he may be inspired to give his all. At least see what he's like in a few pre-season games.
I honestly feel this current roster is more balanced than last season. Not sure losing Saad (and point per game Newhook was his equal pretty well), and Donskoi are really going to hurt us too much.
I snorted coffee. *sighs* Stupid son of a bitch....It would be pretty funny if Sakic signed PTO's with 8 "veterans" just to ice them against Minnesota in that back-to-back with a few AHL scrubs.
Kulikov.You're right , but out of curiosity who's next on the list ?
Avs assalytics department finally got their guy.

Came just to say goid on your GM for not blowing significant cap on a guy literally no other GM was signing. Then I saw this post..It's a PTO...The same things were said about Nichushkin. How about we just wait to see what he looks like in camp/preseason?
