Speculation: Roster Building Thread XXXV: Calm Before the Storm

[GoAwayPanarin]

Sometimes he throws shit up there just to f*** with people, but he gets shit right too.

Trochek is a center and a pretty damn good one.

Adding him gives you every reason in the world to move Strome this offseason.

Eh, he was. I'm very skeptical of him since the injury. This is back to back seasons now he has had a "down" year.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

You fool. I'm timing my gym visit this afternoon for ~2:30pm. Get back sometime between 4 and 5, when we should start to hear the new trickle of rumors and perhaps a couple of the "wanted to get this out of the way before tomorrow" deals.

I've got a second session planned at 3 because why the f*** not?

Do you think K'Andre Miller will be ready for nhl in October?

probably not. He may make the jump to pro but to count on him wouldn't be the smartest decision. But odds go up when you only need 1 from Rykov, Hajek, Miller, Robertson, Jones, Reunanen etc

We really just need another Lindgren to step up. Doesn't have to be an offensive dynamo

LoL he was hilarious last year telling everyone to pack their shit

Yep. For another LD.

 

[duhmetreE]

Trochek became a dad in 2018... he seems extremely family oriented... wonder if that affected his training.

No.

I just got back from my workout and not a damn thing is going on other than some rumor about the Avs and Chicago discussing Saad.

So weird. Things had been trending in recent years to have most of the moves made before the deadline. It looked like it would continue like this earlier this week. Maybe tomorrow will be interesting after all.

 

[Gardner McKay]

I think it makes sense tbh.

Doesn't mean that it would happen, but it makes sense. Trochek hasn't been the same since getting hurt, but there is bounce back potential there and even in his current state, he isn't overpaid.

Oh for sure it makes sense. But I just put zero stock in what that website says.

 

[haohmaru]

Talk about a nothing tweet.

 

[bobbop]

Really? Brooks says otherwise lol. But yes nobody here or a part of the rangers organization expects that to happen

No he doesn’t...reread the article.

 

[Chalfdiggity3]

No he doesn’t...reread the article.

This article yes. Past articles no.

And I dont read his articles anymore. He is moronic in his takes. I used to like reading him bc he had inside info. Now he doesnt and just writes articles for clicks

Talk about a nothing tweet.

Commodore has been a Twitter troll around the deadline but he still has connections within the CBJ organization.

Talk about a nothing tweet.

Just posted another one saying Milano got traded to Anaheim

Won't be a happy camper if Kreider is dealt for Jost.
Better have a lot of picks attached to him along with someone like Kaut or Beaucage.
Jost would be like trading for a slower and banged up Lias Andersson.

Have you watched him play ? Besides obvious skating / athleticism nowhere near ready . Does not look very instinctual or comfortable dojng anything but pushing the puck up ice by skating . Someone mentioned he defends the rush well . I’ve watched some Wisconsin And the tournaments and all I saw was a project at this point. Another year at UW and then finish season in AHL on PTO is the likely timeline

This simply isn't possible

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Jost's wheels are pretty good.

He's a tertiary piece for me though. I'd MUCH rather have him than Kamanev who is straight up waiver wire material.

Avs fans love Jost and would be disappointed to see him go but there is too much depth in front of him to get a real chance.

I have watched him only at WJC. That was very small sample (and not very impressive). That's why I asked. Thanks for the answer.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

Where are all of our board members with inside connections? It is trade deadline time. Everyone man their stations. This is NOT a drill!

Are they? Everyone says he’s awfully slow
