This is my fault, but I didn't mean those would be the only assets going to Columbus. I just meant that we needed to send them at least one roster player to make the numbers work. I'd assume we would send them futures for the actual trade value
I live in Ottawa, so I've seen a lot of Zub. He would be an awesome addition and would likely be a perfect partner for Nurse . However, he is heavily used and relied on by Ottawa. I see no scenario they would move him except for a crazy overpayment, which we are in no position to give. All the things that make him attractive to us (contract, skill level, handedness), make him invaluable to them.
That's a name, lol. Imagine that Bobby Clarke grin in a Quakers uniform, lol.
No obsession, he's just a not an NHL player. This team went to game 7 of the Stanley Cup final, why are they running this kind of player out on their roster. This team should be better than this nonsense.
Hes not a full time NHLer just like cags. He’s here to munch some minutes until we get healthy. I’m sure we will add another D by the playoffs so stetcher or something becomes the 7th.
He switched up threads after getting embarrassed about being wrong about browns usage, and then moving the goal posts only to be wrong again
Brown has been fine in his role so far. I don't think he should be up here long term as that won't last, but spot duty with an edge isn't the worst thing in the world.
Look he's sucks at hockey and it's embarrassing that you guys need to defend and he gets ice time on this team, period. He got time after Ottawa quit, and he was sat in the previous game because he was f***ing useless.
He doesn't have "an edge" he has a "will fight"
He seems to clear net front ok too. Look, I'm not his cheerleader. Ideally, he isn't playing as he's clearly the 7th or 8th best defender available (Depending on your view of Dermott). But with us being depleted, he hasn't been quite as bad as I'd feared when they called him up. I wouldn't call that a ringing endorsement, lol. Just mild surprise he hasn't shit the bed completely for us yet.
No one is saying he’s great. He’s our number 8 d-man. He did exactly what was asked of him.
Oh no problem at all, after I posted I wondered if you meant that as just a part of the return. Hopefully it didnt come across as too snarky lol
With Provorov you can only do 50% retention from one team. So the cheapest he can be had for is $2.38M.
Yeah how did that amazing regular season end, by the way. They've won one more Cup than we have in the last 30 years.
I mean I see lukewarm defense of him because of your overly heated disgust at the fact that we play him. Without Kane and Nurse the only other person who provides some physical pushback somewhat regularly is Old Man Perry.
A cup within the past 15 years and ultra competitive lineups almost every season. How many organizations have that beat? 3?
Serious? An inanimate rod would be an upgrade on Josh Brown.
