Blackhawks have too many forwards at the moment.

-Donato is off to a great start and can play all over the lineup for 2 million.
-Reichel has 2 years at 1.2 and upside.
-Craig Smith can play everyone and only 1 year at 1 million.
- Joey Anderson is a viable NHLer right now. Hes 2 years at 800k

Anthansiou and Mikheyev are probably too expensive.

What’s the ask on Reichel and/or Donato?

What kind of extension is he looking at you think? 2-3 year bridge type deal at ? He’s a guy I would assume any suitor would be looking at extending for a few years.
He's 26 and next year DOC is a UFA. He has never made more than a million dollars.
I'd expect him to get as much as possible.

This year really will determine his value so it is hard to say. I think he would sign a deal like 2.75 to 3.25 x 5 years with no trade protection. Maybe a signing bonus of 1 million first year.

DOC would be awesome on the Avs

Probably less expensive than he should be, 3rd or something like a 4th and sweetener probably gets it done

Probably target players who are currently a scratch with teams. Just as placeholders

Leafs have an abundance now with Dewar coming back soon

Lol, a fan of another team trying to act like they know more about Landys situation then Avs fans. Good stuff.


Will be sure to come back to this post in the next couple of months after Landy returns. What a clown post.
So you're mad I posted about his injuries and another NHL player not some NBA one for timeliness and what not?

What a clown reaction.

It'd cost more than that. Doc has been a fantastic penalty killer and is far better than the usage Sullivan has him in.

Oskar's issues are not Doc's, his game away from the puck is strong and he's a very good forechecker and uses his size more each year. He's also an incredible skater for his size and he can line up at all 3 forward positions while being a very good cap hit.

Humphreys and the Rangers 2nd wound be my ask.

Oooh you’re just jealous, I get it now.

No worries.
Nothing to be jealous of. You have two covid Cups, a superstar, and a bunch of solid role players. I love the city of Tampa. One of my favorite places to visit as well as fanbases.

We have the reigning MVP and the current generational dman. I dont even mean it offensively, but none of your players are better than ours.

MacKinnon at best you can argue is equal to Kucherov, but obviously voters think otherwise so as of today MacKinnon > Kucherov.

Makar >>>>>>>> Hedman
Rantanen > Point
Mittlestadt as of today is better than Guentzel or Cirelli. Well see what happens when he has real wingers vs random rookies.
Nuke is on par with the other of Guentzel or Cirelli, assuming sober lol.
Toews>>>>>>>>anything after Hedman

I dont really dont understand the logic saying that any of Tampa's roster is better than the Avalanche outside of goaltending.
