Player Discussion Jake Evans (Part II)

[Mrb1p]

I don’t want them to keep Evans at all cost especially depending on his ask for his next contract. Depend also on what they could get for him. But he’s a good stop gap between the younger guys and the present. Some vets are still needed.

We need to keep Evans because Dach is so trash. We can't afford to let him go.

They definitely can let him go and call up Beck. Do they want Beck in the AHL for a complete season is another story, we’ll see.

Ah yes call up Beck, because he's a guarantee to be better like Dach was a guarantee to be better, right?

We need good players not 2nd round picks.

You can make that type of comment all you want, they’re not winning this season or on the short term. They’ll decide what they do with him.

Dach and Evans don’t have the same role, btw.

Yeah clearly since Dach is an AHL winger right now and Evans is a 4th line C.

It doesn't matter if they're not winning this year, we need to start accumulating roster players and not just futures. Evans is a good one, hes young, he's homegrown and he's not going to get worth a whole lot. All good reasons to keep him around. We're not scorched earth anymore, we're building. Evans is only 3 years older than Suzuki. It's good to have players that grew up together.

Evans is a 4th line center who will want to sign and be paid as a 3C and the average 3C runs anywhere from 3.1M - 4M.
The truth is we might have to bite the bullet on Evans to acquire a 2C which has clearly become far more of an issue at this point.

He's not gonna ask for 3+ that's crazy he has 100 career points. He's a 2-2.5 range player.

If he wants to be overpaid, sure let him walk, like every other player.
