Nuge has been hugely disappointing in a contract year playing with the best player in the world.
I'd love if we could move him for a dman.
It would be tough unless nuge doesn't take a raise and hall settles for 7.Hall-McDavid-Puljujarvi
RNH-Draisaitl-Yamamoto
This would he great.
I have heard reports from insiders like Chris Johnston that Hall wants to come back. It seems like Nuge enjoys playing in Edmonton as well. We might be able to get discounts tor them.It would be tough unless nuge doesn't take a raise and hall settles for 7.
Buying out neal doesn’t open up 6 million. Dumping Neal with nothing coming back doesn’t even open up 6 million.I have heard reports from insiders like Chris Johnston that Hall wants to come back. It seems like Nuge enjoys playing in Edmonton as well. We might be able to get discounts tor them.
To allow cap flexibility, we will have to buyout Neal which will open up nearly 6 M. Holland should dump Kassian's contract which will allow 9 M. (-9 M)
7 x 8 M for Hall. 7 x 7 for Nuge = +9 M
So a net zero
Hall-McDavid-Puljujarvi
RNH-Draisaitl-Yamamoto
Kahun-X-X
Ennis-Khaira-Archibald
Buyout Neal. Dont resign Larsson.
HuH and I thought Kahun been one of our better playersPart of me wonders if negotiations have gone badly behind the scenes, leading to resentment that’s leaking into his game. I’ve never seen Nuge this disengaged in all facets, and he doesn’t have the natural skill to make an impact even when he is not playing at full pace. Even Kahun has been a more noticeable player the last couple nights.
Honestly I think our best chance at a #1D anytime soon is Hamilton in FA. And even that is pretty unlikely.Honestly I think we need to patient with our defence. Its extremely unlikely we are going to find a #1 in a trade.
Bouchard looks good. Nurse has really upped his game. Bear is good. Lagesson looks solid. Jones has more to show. Broberg is probably on the team next year. Samurokov isnt that far behind. I think we are in decent shape.
Finding a goalie would be huge.
Dubnyk was traded for.They should have signed Dubnyk in the summer, they probably can still acquire him but now it will cost a pick.
He's back to putting up solid numbers once again, his dip in play was only because of his wife's medical issues.
Yes.
Not saying it wasn't an option. I brought him up in September. Just correcting you when you said he should've been signed.Not really sure what Holland's thought process was here, that is a nothing cost.
This division isn’t hard. Every team in this division was below us in the standings last year.COVID kinda screwed us by putting us into a harder division, I think.
Vegas, Calgary, Edmonton, 1 of Arizona or Vancouver (Pacific)
Colorado, St. Louis, Winnipeg, Dallas
Would have been better for us in a traditional season setup. We probably make that top 8 fairly comfortably.
But yippie we get to play the Leafs and Habs and Sens 500 times this year and Canadian sports writers get to jerk themselves off. Whoopity doo.
It’s funny to see everyone pumping Bouchard and still make offers to trade Broberg. Just last year most posters had Broberg over Bouchard in the depth chart. You don’t trade D with the upside he has without seeing what he can do in the NHL.

This reminds me of all those that were willing to trade for Karlson and were willing to give up Drai and Nurse. Unreal. May enjoy the benefits of this for 2-3 years but would regret it for 20 years after that.I’d ship Broberg + Lavoie + 1st for Gibson.
