We can't make that move (moving out another forward) without then bringing in another forward though. We are already running one forward fewer than we had.
possibility to bring montroy back for the remainder of the year or did we cut ties with him?We can't make that move (moving out another forward) without then bringing in another forward though. We are already running one forward fewer than we had.

So I’m not sure if this defines “aggressive “ at the deadline at all.
He shortened our forward core and did not strengthen the d.
If it’s all he does, it’s not enough.
Still 2+ days to make something else happenSo I’m not sure if this defines “aggressive “ at the deadline at all.

There has to be another move in the making. i can't see moving forward with just this group. we are one injury away from disaster. even bring up montroy now that the younger kids have gone. he's a decently skilled 18 year old that already knows our systems and will playSo I’m not sure if this defines “aggressive “ at the deadline at all.

Would hope he'd have an instant impact and wouldn't take away from what we have going this season though if he is brought upThere has to be another move in the making. i can't see moving forward with just this group. we are one injury away from disaster. even bring up montroy now that the younger kids have gone. he's a decently skilled 18 year old that already knows our systems and will play

Id throw him on the 4th line with Hayes and Martin if that's the case, give that line a bit of veteran presenceTo be fair, i'm not even really that concerned about the impact he would make statistically. as long as he isn't messing up all the time i'd be happy. but he had a pretty decent training camp and pre-season. just got caught up in a numbers game. i always liked his skillset. thought he'd put it all together this year.
All this Montroy talk is crazy talk. If Montroy was part of the plans he would have been with the team all year.

As for trading Virgilio, at this point I would be pissed if he gets traded. You don't negotiate a deal like the one that Raftis did for Hayes, keeping all our 06s and 07s save for Kostov, to just go and trade Virgilio now. We don't need a top pairing D. We need a 4/5 D. If we have to trade Virgilio to get a fourth D that is not good asset management.
If Raftis prioritized getting a defenseman, he should have made his OA upgrade an OA defenseman, and in the Hayes trade he should have moved a defenseman instead of 2 forwards. But he didn't. Which tells me it was not a priority for him.
Still possible he adds a depth defenseman, but not for Virgilio, and I'm not holding my breath on it.
i can't see them bringing in another 07 dman for a playoff run. doesn't make much senseView attachment 798736
I agree on Montroy talks, he would have spent the entire season here if so.
It’s more likely to slot in Solomon on D than call-up Montroy on F to fill holes haha
i dont know if virgilio has the market value that you guys think.All this Montroy talk is crazy talk. If Montroy was part of the plans he would have been with the team all year.

All the more reason to keep him theni dont know if virgilio has the market value that you guys think.
he may not. but those that watch him every night are excited for what he will bring as an 18-19 year old. he's already playing very good as a 17 year old. i'd rather we keep him anyway.i dont know if virgilio has the market value that you guys think.
in fairness you said the same thing about kostov.i dont know if virgilio has the market value that you guys think.
did i? where? i may have said brown for surein fairness you said the same thing about kostov.
