Speculation: Potential TDL adds we can get?

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Yeah I'm ok with no goalie trade this year? I don't really get the urgency, if most teams' #1 goes down they're screwed. Driedger has been terrible since he tore his ACL and honestly doesn't deserve the call up but can he go 4-4 in the 8 starts he'll get and open doors in the playoffs? Yes. Definitely need a 1B for next year though.

Thanks, I'll try it out

Go get Brad Marchand please Zito

Since we have lots of cap space now - if Chucky stays on LTIR until the playoffs - and dwindling trade resources, one option would be to use a retention slot to help someone else (Western Conf) facilitate a big trade. We could greatly increase our return and/or use less assets to acquire.

I don't see using all of the available cap space on acquisitions so this would
leverage our space to maximum effect.

Do we know what’s wrong with Chucky? Seems kind of quiet.

Rumored to be groin, but so far just a LBI.

retention for a first. is always an option but i doubt it

That would be the end of Boston. The meltdown would be glorious.

Their “I’m happy for Marchy but I hate Benny” dichotomies would spool endlessly

 

[Gentle Man]

Cooper doing everything to get Benny the f*** out of Sunrise.

Chucky's regular season officially over. I'm hoping this is a Stone/Kucherov injury (which I think it is) but we won't know till playoffs.

 

[Lundell4Prez]

Verhaeghe for Rantanen (assuming they’d know if he’d sign for a price we’d be okay with)?

 

[iam76]

should we check in on brock boeser and arthur silovs

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

Boeser would be a fun pickup but say goodbye to Mackie.

I'm expecting a Duclair reunion.

In before Reilly Smith and 98% of the people here blow their shit.

The 2% is I am not exposed

Reilly Smith sucks, though. Don't want that loser.

Yeah I mean, we'll probably ride Bobrovsky in the POs like we did last year.

Dreidger should probably get a decent amount of starts (particularly near the end of the season) if only to rest Bobrovsky for the POs

How many 5 or 6 of 21 remaining, at best?

Verhaeghe for Rantanen (assuming they’d know if he’d sign for a price we’d be okay with)?

No he doesn't. Barkov, Tkachuk, Forsling, Reinhart have all signed below market value contracts. Carolina has offered Rantanen something like $13m AAV. That is not a ballpark where Zito would like to operate.

Hard pass.

Let's go for Reilly Smith instead!
