20 goal scorers should only get paid $2M, obviously.

 

[Stelio Kontos]

Reading y’all’s replies and looking more at the line up with gourde and Bjorkstrand in it the more I’m ok with this trade..

If we move Guentz to the 3rd with those two that’s an elite elite top 9

 

[Sky04]

I was just saying it sucks we're in the position where we have to spend a first rounds pick on retention instead of filling another hole in the lineup, like the ones we still have in the bottom six.

It sucks that we have so many good pieces the only thing we have to worry about it is filling out a 4th liner and a bottom pairing defenseman? yeah it sucks

 

[Flat Ronnie]

Practice lines were interesting.

Guentzel - Point - Kuch
Hagel - Cirelli - Paul
Gonclaves - Gourde - Bjork
Girgensons - Glenn - Chaffee

Did Gourde and Bjork play on the same line in Seattle?

Need another defenseman who is better than Perbix/Raddysh/Lilleberg

That's what guys like Geekie are for.

Hey, if he can find us a few of those 20 goal 2M people like DM me, I can make some phone calls

Do you also own a T.A.R.D.I.S? This can be achieved pretty easily.

Luke Schenn trade coming soon

 

[Peacefool]

Luke Schenn trade coming soon

uuuf I would be happy. I think this is the only one D who I saw is making his strenght (use of his body) covering his weakness (skating abilities) also tough can fight stand for the guys, bring him fo Perbix

 

[Tampa22]

Love to have Schenn here, he plays like all the d-man should play the game of hockey, but Cooper never use him like a needed player. He scratched him lot of nights and always was the player with less time on ice. I don't think they bring him back.

I would be shocked if the Pens flip him right after acquiring him. That move is surely Dubas thinking he's a keeper for a bit

[OffBy1]

That's what guys like Geekie are for.

That was my first thought as well, but he has 1 goal and 3 assists in 10 games with Syracuse. Still is probably the best we have to bring up.

I spoke of multiple holes in our bottom six (which we do have), but you've never been one to limit yourself to responding to what was actually said.
