Getting bigger isn't going to protect him from crashing head first into the boards on occasion.

Using his brains to stay away from those situations when there's 1 1/2 minutes left down by 2 will. It won't prevent other times, but to minimize them would be prudent if he wants to have a long career.
 
Anyone imploring the team to sell isn't grasping the concept that they're still in a playoff spot and can control their own destiny.

Yes, it's easy in fans' shoes to just find the nearest life boat and jump off the ship when it's starting to leak. But I'd rather see my team actually go for it. What good would selling do? What do we even have to sell that is of any real value?

I know I'm an optimist, but come on people.
 
I feel like I've been kicked in the nuts by heel John Cena.

The only bright thing of the year is that this guy will finally f*** off forever soon from wrestling. I've always hated him and can't wait to never see him again. Won't watch any shitty movie or TV show he's in either.
 
If NJ offers him a fair market contract I expect he stays. I don't think he will refuse to sign if they treat him reasonably. The team has been good to him and he has teammates from his home country and appears to have good relationships with the team and management. If they lowball him then sure, he might get angry and want to go but I'm skeptical they do that to him.

Probably. I just won't stop banging this drum. I've been saying it for the past two years.

If (when) we miss again, that'll be one single playoff appearance since he signed that contract.

I'd be having a long think over the summer about where the f*** this team is headed. If it were me...

I don't know. Maybe I'm just a miserable prick.

Multiple people should find a new team. Dead serious.
 
A wildly pointless thing to do for a team multiple points up in a playoff spot two days before the deadline.

3rd round picks is not what the franchise needs.
That's if Fitz stands pat and does absolutely nothing. He is not going to do nothing. He's either going to buy or sell. I hope it's to sell.
 
Sucks a lot but this was bound to be coming. I think the best move right now would be to make a splash on someone with term preferably a center. We have the LTIR money no reason to not use it while in a playoff spot but I think it has to be with an eye on the future as well. Would imagine the seconds and Casey/Nemec would be on the table at this point to help out at forward.

There’s no reason to sell. Also no reason to buy.

A minute and a half is a lot of time left in a 2 goal game to try and tie it. Maybe Hannifin shouldn't be a reckless moron with his skate?
 
I’m glad the devils are still going to be buyers as they should be. If your just going to wave the white flag when Jack goes down then just punt next season to because chances of him getting knocked out are likely.

What exactly would we sell anyway and what would we get a couple 2nd 3rd round picks
