Because he's solid piece that would've been extremely useful to this team next season... even if in a Brendan Smith role
Who? McLeod is the only player we’ve lost over the last few years that I don’t see any clear replacement for. Maybe Tatar too?
I don't understand your question. I'm saying I've seen it about guys who, yea in theory are easily replaced. So not Mcleod. I'm talking about the ones, who by all accounts, yea? could be easily replaced, but have not been. Bahl, on an individual basis in a vacuum, I would not argue against someone saying he is easily replaced. But hearing it about so many players over the last couple years and having them seldomly replaced, it starts to lose it's meaning. So I'm just saying I understand where Jim is coming from when brushing off the "easily replaced" line.
Well I just don’t know who fits your definition? Sharangovich was replaced by a far better player. Graves, Severson -> Luke, Nemec. I don’t really know who else is in the conversation about being replaceable or not?
I'm not going to go down the list, because every name in theory isn't a world beater and can be picked a part as "that guy?!" like I'm making a big stink about said player. But my point is it has been said many times about a lot of players, most of which in a vacuum makes sense to say it. But saying it over and over with out doing it starts to add up.
I could be well off in my assessment. I figured a 22yo who scored 16 while playing very low minutes would be valuable to teams who would take a chance on him
Mr. Bad Fit who led our team in goals had a much larger role than Yegor in his final year. He was traded for a reason!
He's really putting his Devils GM position on the line there by letting Rogalski remain, especially if the Goaltending bombs again.
Keep protecting that 35 year old goalie champ, let that one sink in deep.
You think it’s almost over?
But you don’t understand how respected those posters are.
