Cheatin on CBJ w TBL
Yeah, and I'd forgotten Hofmann too...since there's a lot of chatter, if we move seth for marner, there's another spot gone...
Assuming zero roster moves, and since you have Robinson there I’ll just give Seattle Kukan.
W (locks): Nyquist, Laine, Atkinson, Bjorkstrand, Bemstrom, Hoffman, Robinson
C: Roslovic
Hybrid: Domi, Jenner, Texier
Fighting for a spot: Chinakhov, Danforth, Stenlund, Sherwood, 1st round pick
11 locks.
yeah I think there’s room. But it likely forces Chinakhov back to Russia. I put Hoffman in lock because there’s no chance he would come offer without assurance he’s starting in the NHL, but at the same time Chinakhov was maybe given the same promise.
- I think the forward locks don't include Hofmann (There is one "f" folks). So I have 10 locks.
- Fighting for 2 playing spots and one spare roster spot:
Chinakhov, Danforth, Hofmann, Foudy, Dunne, Angle, Stenlund, MacInnis, TFW, 1st pick, etc...
- I wouldn't sleep on Dunne and Angle here.
- I don't think those promises ever buy a player anything beyond a few games. After that they can sit in limbo if they have a no-AHL clause, either way if you're not one of the best players you won't play in the NHL.
- Chinakhov seemed willing to go to the AHL, and I don't think it's likely that he could be loaned back to the KHL at this point, there are some burnt bridges behind him.
Again I don’t think Hoffman () would be coming over unless he was given some sort of assurance he was starting in the NHL. At least going into camp I would place him as a lock. This isn’t a Jakob Lilja situation where he wanted to give the NHL a go, Hoffman () was totally content with staying in Switzerland.

I think Nick will want to chase a cup, not a rebuild. I think he'd be great to have back but the signals seem pretty clear we're full rebuild. The Seth move will determine a LOT about path forward regardless of the press conference today.Does the Larsen hire mean they could use Nick’s leadership and familiarity or does it mean they need an even more clear break in leadership in the ‘room’ or does it not really matter to the possibility of Nick coming back?
1.Sign him to a one year contract. 2.Trade him to a contender at the trade dedline. 3.Profit.
I don't think it matters. If Jarmo & JD offer and he wants to come back he will. Personally with from 7 to 11 locks(as "reported" above) from last years lousy team I prefer not adding another.
So how long until we name Cam Atkinson captain since he's the only dude who wants to stay here and is tenured

Jenner. Cam will have an A.
How bout we just don't have a captain next season. Jenner's probably gone after next season anyways, maybe even by the trade deadline.
Jenner can be renewed in July and that may tell us how CBJ sees him. If he re-signs for, say, 4 or 5 years, he's your next captain.How bout we just don't have a captain next season. Jenner's probably gone after next season anyways, maybe even by the trade deadline.

Soft inconsistent players can't be captain.

I think only players from Columbus can be the troo captain. /sYea I wasn't actually serious about making Cam captain lol
