Siegs, pushes Bahl down. Luke will only get better. Having Siegs taking second pairing or shutdown and letting Luke take easier matchups to let his offense fly all while only costing 3.5 mil for the next few years, is better than having Hanifin and whatever his contract would be IMO. Especially looking ahead to Luke and Nemac contracts.
I know people get upset talking about any contract that is more than a year out, but it would really suck to have Nemac and Luke turn into absolute monsters and have to pay people to take contracts or let go of depth to accommodate right in our serious window. Right now is exactly when we should be looking ahead. "Too many good players" "good problem" all that is fun to say, but throwing away assets, to create problems, ones that won't get us a cup, and only makes us give up more assets to fix, is a dumb way to go IMO.
We have really good players locked up through their prime and for a while, we are soon to do it with a few more. Not need to rush anything, the depth and asset throwing will be a fun thing very soon.
It's just my Hischier SS jerseys and the hat I grabbed too. It's a green, red and white winter hat with NJD on the front.
