The 2024-2025 Roster Thread

[truthbluth]

I know it’s crazy, but I’d trade Tage, Power, Cozens, Quinn and Peterka. None of them play defense. A really good team can carry one, maybe two guys on the roster that don’t play D. We have 5 high minute guys that can’t defend. Probably hold on to Quinn until his value can slightly rebound. The other 4 gotta go.

I would even trade Tuch tbh, was thinking about Tuch+ for Larkin.

Trade Cozens, Power and if you can, Samuelsson(or buy him out in the summer) and bridge Quinn and Peterka. Make them earn a contract. We MIGHT see better results, we might not but at least we have a team working for a contract instead of it being handed to them on a silver platter.

Lindy post game, This isn't about UPL, Lets be real

We could not get people off the ice because of bad decisions

There is a fine line with the young guys right now

A Nashville win tomorrow afternoon against the Kings and the Sabres will be dead last in the NHL before puck drop in Boston.

 

[toddkaz]

Patrik Laine 6 goals in 7 games.....Skinner 2.0 right?

What a steal for the habs.

 

[TommyDangles]

Patrik Laine 6 goals in 7 games.....Skinner 2.0 right?

What a steal for the habs.

7 goals 1 assist and a -5

more Olofsson 2.0

 

[toddkaz]

Yeah, he plays just like Olofsson.

Its amazing how people frown at players who score goals when this team can't. Why would have wanted a guy who has 6 goals in 7 games and traded for pennies on the dollar.

Olofsson has 9 points in 12 games and 7 goals.

Hows Quinn doing?

Olofsson has more goals than
McLeod
Quinn
Krebs
Benson
Greenway

And tied with Cozens and 2 behind Tuch and Peterka in about 1/3 of the games.

 

[OkimLom]

Anybody that loses to this organization has legitimate grounds to fire their own head coach and/or GM on the spot

 

[TommyDangles]

Hows Quinn doing?

Have you ever watched Laine play before?

I'm not frowning. Just laughing at a dumb comment. Look at Olofsson's start to the 22-23 season and tell me if it reminds you of anything?

Quinn on Vegas would probably have 20+ goals already

We don't need no stinking goals.

I prefer to watch Peterka, Cozens and Quinn float around the ice anyways.

Team is 3rd last and you think we don't need goal scorers

 

[Dreakon13]

It's kind of amazing just how bad this youth experiment ended up. I won't say I had sky high hopes going into the season, cautious optimism maybe, and a want to believe in this group... but holy shit.

It's also kinda amazing how quickly and catastrophically this unraveled the second they sniffed being over .500. These guys are literally allergic to success.

Granted it's mostly Adams fault for doling out those contracts and assembling a team of kids to play in the NHL, but f*** these guys and their hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars to be terrible at their jobs for 7 months.

 

[Dubi Doo]

We need to make moves, but man- it doesn't feel like a few trades are going to right this ship. The rot runs so deep. When ownership is one of your biggest issues, youre in big trouble. It just feels like this playoff drought is going to last a while.

Then why did you say Olofsson was dead weight last season? I thought it was all about the goals baby.

 

[MarkusKetterer]

God damn Marcus. Some of these people have a family. No need to drop a tactical nuke on them

 

[Fjordy]

Yeah, this whole youth movement has completely gone down the drain, it doesn't work that way. Your young players need to play alongside good players and vets, like other teams do.
