Rumor: Planning Ahead: 2019 Off-Season Part 2

[Raccoon Jesus]

I'd offer that to Carolina, but I'd want the first to be top 5 protected. We could probably offer a pretty substantial package to them, actually.

Hell, I'd offer a 1st, 2 2nds and a third just to break the 'standard offer', there's likely nothing there that's going to be better than a 21-year-old PPG playmaker. If it weren't for the culture thing I'd trade any of our prospects for him.

If we could shelter him behind Kopitar, that would be pretty wild. I'd offer Kempe, a first, and a second.

Aho can't be traded. Once a player signs an offer sheet, he's locked in for a year.

Good point - he's either a Hab or a Cane this season.

Dion Phaneuf must be weighing his offers.

He's been on hold for four hours now trying to get through to Dubas

Caps just snagged Leipsic.

I really like Leipsic, he looked like he cared the most out of anyone on the Kings last year, but he's a fourth liner on a contender at best. Wish him well. Too bad he was one of the many mediocre wingers on this team. Would have liked to see him stay.

Just read the Ice Capades folded in 1997. There goes one option...

Needed a decent defenseman so they wouldn't have to force too many young guys into the lineup at once.

 

[Yog S'loth]

There we go.

At least we found a couple pieces of stale candy at the bottom of last year's Halloween bag.

A hardened piece of caramel and black licorice

Hahaha Blake sweeping the leg. I liked Ryan generally, he helped Burns a lot.

SJ going with the "All offensive D plus Vlasic" strategy with the departures of Braun, Ryan, possibly Dillon.

LaDue - 27 in Sept
Ryan - 26 now
MacDermid - 25 now
Walker - 25 in Nov
Roy - 24 now
Brickley - 24 now

If Carolina can’t afford the offer a lake should tell tell them to match and immediately send them a better offer than a 1st 2nd and 3rd.

I'm more referring Clague, Durzi and Anderson, whatever gives them more time to develop is a positive.

Aho can't be traded. Once a player signs and offer sheet, he's locked in for a full year. He can only play for the Canadians or the Canes.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Such minor signings I didn't get any notices on my phone. Oh, spoke to soon. There they are.

Totally forgot about that. Well I guess we will see if Carolina is a real NHL team or not. To get a stud like Aho in his prime for 5 years for under 8.5 you take that and run.

 

[KingPuckChoo]

Joakim Ryan

LA got Sharked yet again

Marleau, Thornton are next

surprised we didn't sign Donskoi to be honest

 

[riznat]

Any chance Ryan is better than forbort?
