Actually, Murray and Muzzin on LTIR would give us the space to carry that, but them being on LTIR right now doesn't suddenly make overpaying "marginal roster players" we don't need a good thing, much less doing so in the past when they were healthy.
Yep, a mistake, as I said. And even Holl wouldn't be in the lineup with everybody healthy, so I don't know what you think that means.
yeah and Tucker Sundin Roberts Cujo were huge losses lol
i feel like there isnt a non goalie player that has left via FA that i miss being on this team .The LTIR space is only temporary, so we're obviously not going to be buying free agents, let alone overpaying "marginal roster player" free agents we don't need.
He might be but depends how they use him. If they keep him as number 6 that plays 12 minutes a night he might be fine. If they played him 20 minutes a night he would be a whipping boy.
Which summer free agents would have been worth that LTIR money? Even with hindsight I can only see 1 that might fit with that extra money who's been worth a damn.
They would either use him too much or he'd make his mistakes in that lower ice time and everyone would be mad we're paying 2.75mil for 2 seasons for a bottom pair guy with meh skating and brain farts. He's a more physical, slower Holl once the shiny new toy effect where's off.
I wouldn’t want him back at 2.75 for the exact points you made. If he was making 1.5 million playing bottom pair minutes he might be okay.
Soup is 2/2 over the last 2 games - 4 points and looking like great chemistry with Kuz and Petey... Guy is a difference maker on the ice from what I've seen.
That's literally the story of this entire off season...
