we have a 4th line LW spot for Howden, Gauthier and PDG. Someone is going to get the short end of the stick and it's not Howden.

What happens when Barron gets a call? It's a clusterfruck

I guess we get to keep enjoying Kravtsov on the 4th line and constantly bouncing around.

We also get to enjoy the play of Brett Howden...
 
Speaks volumes, too, about what he thinks his NEXT contract is going to be.

Yowza.

Not really. He loses out on that money regardless. Like whatever he gets paid to play next season is on top of any of these calculations. And it will be a small prove it type deal. No one is going to pay him more than 2m at this point.

The calculation Tony and his agent would need to make... would signing and playing like 8-10 games this season (and maybe some playoffs) help increase the value of the next contract? Maybe, but likely not by much. If this had been something the NYR would consider, they should have offered this to Tony like two months ago. Then, there might be real value to Tony to play half a season or more with a team. that could really help his next contract.

Kakko

Just wont happen unfortunately. Quinn doesnt think he needs to alter his PP units.

But as an aside, Jones should absolutely take Miller’s PP minutes. Miller does not look right out there. He has a hard time coming up the ice with the puck and making the right decisions. He also seems to panic when receiving passes at the blueline. Just doesnt look smooth. Not saying he cant be a quality PP presence in the future, but for right now I would try Jones

Does anyone remember how long the mandatory quarantine period is before Jones can join the team, Ten days?
