Ovechkin may be retiring, so the need to both convince him to stick around another year, and replace him moving forward.Washington definitely doing work on their wings
What did he say exactly.
Part of why I have never taken rumours of our interest that seriously. Plus he's a C. Seems like he would need to change his game a lot to fit in here.Anaheim fans have speculated that one of the reasons McTavish might be getting moved is that he “doesn’t fit the coaches fast paced and up tempo style of play”
That’s exactly how we play sontjays concerning
I was very unimpressed by him against Montreal.Glad we aren’t in on Tuch. 30 years old, wants 10+ and rode the coattails of Thompson.
He was also invisible in the playoffs

Nah mate that’s giraffe.Y'all thinking about it wrong. Tyler Myers is pretty much from Vancouver. Beef.
I interpreted it as him trying to soften the message vs him just saying no.Not that.
I was 100% of the impression that the team is willing to spend to the cap to compete but won’t do it just to blow their brains out.
Pettersson (retained) and Mctavish both avaliable and both much superior optionsNot a lot of first liners are available unless you want to trade Stutzle or Sanderson.
Like, what are these absurd expectations?
Look for a tough 4th liner, RD.Outside of Ullmark (maybe Foegle?), it seems like the players Staois has brought in have been out of left field. Cozens, Zetterlund, Jensen, Eklund. We need to be thinking outside of the box. We need a #1 LW who has shooters mentality.
Alex DeBrincat. Only one year left on his deal but I'm sure he'd extend.
Eklund was avaliable last deadline as they tried to move him for Nemec. Def unexpected but he was in rumours. Cozens was also avaliableOutside of Ullmark (maybe Foegle?), it seems like the players Staois has brought in have been out of left field. Cozens, Zetterlund, Jensen, Eklund.

Debrusk had more goals and points than McTavish last year. He makes half of what Pettersson does.Pettersson (retained) and Mctavish both avaliable and both much superior options
Debrusk is a 40-45 point winger who is going to be 30 when the season starts. What are we talking about here?
running a first line with Eklund and Debrusk (40-45 point winger who thrives mostly on the PP) and calling it sexy is wildDefinitely don't want to pay what the Canucks will want for DeBrusk (likely #25+) but on the other hand this forward group is damn sexy:
Eklund - Stutzle - DeBrusk
Greig - Cozens - Batherson
Zetterlund - Pinto - Amadio
Foegele - Halliday - Giroux
Mctavish is a better option due to his potential and the way he plays. he goes to the middle of the ice and will score around the net and tip in pucks more of a PFDebrusk had more goals and points than McTavish last year. He makes half of what Pettersson does.
Cozens was available for sure but we never really got linked to him. It’s true that with this regime if a player is mentioned repeatedly as being of interest to us it’s probably not who we’re gonna land on.Eklund was avaliable last deadline as they tried to move him for Nemec. Def unexpected but he was in rumours. Cozens was also avaliable
It's deep though. It makes me tired for other teams just looking at the depth.running a first line with Eklund and Debrusk (40-45 point winger who thrives mostly on the PP) and calling it sexy is wild
Yes to McTavish. Exactly what we need. 25th, Florida 1st in 2029 and let's f***ing go.Mctavish is a better option due to his potential and the way he plays. he goes to the middle of the ice and will score around the net and tip in pucks more of a PF
Mctavish is 23 and Debrusk is going to be 30 when the season starts. I mean the differences in potential is obvious
Ye don't think anyone thought that Buffalo would actually want Norris with his injury history. I remember a lot of the talk then around sens land was that norris was not super moveableCozens was available for sure but we never really got linked to him. It’s true that with this regime if a player is mentioned repeatedly as being of interest to us it’s probably not who we’re gonna land on.
