Line Combos: CBJ Roster Discussion/Line Combos/Injury Report

While I think this is a playoff team, there is no way they should be buyers for a big piece.

For a rental, I agree but if it's for a long term piece, why not.

The (only) silver lining with his injury is that we get to see how Fantilli does with two really good wingers

 

[MoeBartoli]

Maybe the club was brutally honest with him and said that they will continue to bring up Jet to be the goalie when Elvis needs a break and that if Tarasov hopes to play he needs to accept the assignment with the expectation that it will help him and the club in the future

Or make it clear there’s no worry about him clearing waivers.

Well, didn't see the game but Tarasov's numbers were not good tonight stopping just 25 of 30. Ouch!

Hearing Waddell allude to wanting to make a hockey trade with regards to Provorov in the event of a playoff race in his interviews with Marek and Scheig got me thinking.

There have previously been talks of Provorov to Utah. If Utah too want to push for the playoffs, would a deal based around Provorov for Kesselring be at all likely? Utah have Durzi and Marino on the right-hand side that should be back soon as well as Lamoureux coming up. If they could add and re-sign Provorov, that would strengthen their left-hand side significantly, while Columbus get a young up-and-coming RHD to play in the top 4 moving forward.

I suppose Utah don't really need to rush anything and, since Kesselring is cheap, can keep him on the third pair or as a 7D. But that's a trade that would intrigue me.

Kesselring would be amazing but there's no way Utah trades, he's turned into an incredible young dman.

Id seriously kick the tires on Durzi in the offseason but that's unlikely too as he just signed a deal there.

I wonder what the Islanders would want for Dobson.

Yikes, not good.

I'm telling you (not just you Doggy) for this season we just need an experienced back up that can fill in, and let Merzlikins rest up.
And that guy is Jack Campbell.
He'd be an easy get, and would fill in perfectly in that role.
Let Jet get more playing time, and help Cleveland.
Next season, Jet takes the back up role.

Durzi is the kind of offensive D that we don't seem to have the minutes available for. And I hear much the same about Dobson, that he's the offensive guy and not so reliable defensively.

If only we didn’t panic with Jiricek and could have used him as a trade piece.

People throwing Brindley’s name around as an add-in on trades have me punching air rn

Jiricek at this point is more of a niche product, not a general commodity we could have spent at the market when we wanted something.
