You weren’t paying attention if you thought they would be trying to acquire Marino. They feel they've rounded out the top 4 with Byram. I’m skeptical thats the case. But it doesn’t matter what I think or anyone else. They didn’t come into this offseason looking to add someone like Marino.
I wouldn’t get too bummed out. Many seemed to have anticipated a bunch of big moves for some reason.
Why not, as physical as Malenstyn, he scored almost 30 points for the Preds. Makes sense.
And in the same breath (more or less) he said that his focus was on the bottom 6, becoming harder to play against and heavier defensive depth.
He said it in TDL. They just wanted to add Ehlers or Necas. I think it's obvious.
He can also play in top 6, I would like Teravainen.
I think it's not very good and not quite what we need.
I am not convinced they will if Skinner isn't bought out. It feels a bit like they tried to get some guys like Necas and Ehlers, but failed, so they will stick with Skinner instead.
After everything Adams said it was terrible, it seems he was angry that Jeff did not give up his NMC.. Kevyn is painting himself into a corner.
And he only costs $3.57m aav for 2 more years. +118 in face offs as well. Hard to beat that for a bottom 6 center for the next 2 years.
This team will not make the playoffs.
