What are we at for contracts now?

I'd still love to get a 3rd line center with some strong faceoff skills.

RNH wont be traded away until some of the questions are answered.

Can Strome play C ?
Can another RWer click with McDavid freeing up Draisaitl?
Can RNH start producing with Eberle gone?

It would be premature and simple needless to trade RNH this off-season unless the return is great.

I agree, I likely wouldn't trade him either, especially considering his value is probably low. Maybe try letting him ride shot gun with McDavid for awhile to see if he can get some of his confidence back.

I'd hate Polak on this team, if only because he'd always make me think of that "Fat, balding Taylor Hall with a beard" meme and I would never be able to take him seriously.

Isn't that Radko Gudas?

3rd line C RNH, strong faceoffs skills Jokinen.

Jokinen-RNH-xxxx

I'd rather try to get Nuge's offensive game going, and rely on him less on the PK/D-zone. Especially if we're going to try to dump him after this season, he needs to put up some offensive production.

Maroon - McDavid - Drai/Nuge
Lucic - Drai/Nuge - Strome
Jokinen - XXXX - Kassian
Caggiula - Letestu - Sleppy

47 once Draisaitl, LaLeggia, and Simpson get new contracts. Wells and Benson won't count once they get sent back to juniors, so 45.

Stauffer seemed to linger a little bit on the "acquire a veteran player OR TWO" portion of Chiarelli's quote.

Maroon McDavid Nuge
Lucic Draisaitl Strome
Caggiula Jokinen Puljujarvi
Slepy Letestu Kassian

Would be worth a look I think.

I still think a cheap, right shot winger might be in the cards. Stafford, Gionta, Purcell... Someone that can play a safe game, has a bit of finish and can play 14-17 minutes a night. These guys might be camp invites like Versteeg last season though. Although I think he's not ready, they're going to give JP an opportunity to earn his spot.

I am 100% down for a Franson signing though. With him on board we look half decent even without Sekera.

Klefbom - Larsson
Russell - Franson
Nurse - Benning

Please Jagr please please please

I will speak this into existence

Please please please

lol.

My guess is Gionta or Stafford, like belair posted above.

I'm also going to say one of Polak or Franson. Polak more likely because of probably cap hit.
