Teams that did something and were not delusional about in the room

Many teams did something, but not Adams.

a idea, not sure if it works ?

I think we should be there in his M-NTC, and why would Pens trade him now.

I think the idea that Dylan Cozens is going to fix himself and raise his value above what’s being talked about is hilarious and will never happen. Take it and f***ing run. Stop trying to imprint best case scenarios on disaster players. He is far more likely to lose more value continuing in this environment than raise it.

Cozens is a big disappointment, he is nowhere near as good and he doesn't have the IQ of Eichel or Reinhart, even Casey was smarter. I watched the game yesterday and didn't understand what this guy was doing.

If only we could get a great player like Pettersson for our tin soldiers.

I can cherry pick things too, Joe.

Borgen is playing second pair minutes for the Rangers and is playing very well.

Kakko with 3+4 in 10 GP.

Sometimes a change of scenery for two players works.

Adams:

"No one wants to play in Buffalo".

"Hard to find deal."

"I'm an idiot".

"Terry is happy."

Someone develop an all-season palm tree so we can get some players here, would ya ?

We can get some players without a palm tree, but Kevyn just doesn't know that.

I mean McLeod in the vacuum was even better than Cozens, Compher is probably as good as Cozens now. We're not talking about Cozens as a great two-way player who is very good and scores 65-70 points.

You either try to restore Cozens' game without trading him cheaply, which is reasonable. Or you trade him in a big deal where we get a better player (Pettersson, etc.).

They liked Kasper in the draft, they probably see him as an Austrian Lundell. Compher is a stopgap and an experienced guy for the room. I'm not saying it's a good deal, but maybe they think about it that way if they don't have much faith in Cozens and that he will return to his 22-23 form.

Compher has three years left at $5.1. So, we would need to feel pretty sure he can be useful for a few years.
