LW Matej Blumel (2019, 100th, EDM unsigned; signed by DAL)

He could be an NHLer, but not in Dallas. Too one dimensional to play on our 4th line. Other teams with poor depth could play him in their top 13 tho.

2 cheapshots in one post.. well done.

Too much AHL. He got cooked IMO. Not his fault Dallas is so deep and good but I feel like he was NHL calibre.

 

[De Montreal]

He's a UFA now. Wonder if he signs with a team with less depth willing to give him a chance.

Exactly. I hope Pastrnak "nudged" him during IHF.

I think he just needs a proper chance. More than 10 games.

Alex Steeves is another guy in a similar boat.

I believe each scored the most AHL goals in a regular season - in like the last 7 years.

His name has been thrown around by alot of Penguin fans to take a chance on him . Low risk by Dubas with possible high reward.

 

[La Bamba]

Time to come home to Edmonton

I hope he signs somewhere... But I don't think he should sign a 2 way contract. 1 way and league minimum or back to Europe IMO.

Preference would be Boston (some Czechs and they need forwards) and Edmonton (we don't have many young forwards and lack depth going forward). Then non playoff teams.

But, I think it is over. Hope I'm dead wrong.
