GDT: Trade and Free Agency Thread - 2021/22 PART II

[Kiwi]

Though Chicago might be a good team to offer Timmy L the chance. They aren't an offensive juggernaut.

Holl and Muzzin are drowning, I think we need to start feeding Liljegren minutes with Muzzin no matter who we are playing against

If he doesn't crumble under the pressure continue to up his minutes and competition

It would be nice to know what we have before the TDL and we need to start buying

As I said in the PGT, TL is growing, his confidence is increasing, and while there's a risk involved - confidence appears to be the one area that he struggles with when transitioning - when he does gain it his game steps up and he plays well. I also think he's a good compliment to Muzzin, skills wise.

I've liked a lot of Keefe's post game comments, tonight on Liljegren, "I think Lily has done a good job here. I don’t know if I would say he is taking advantage. I don’t think he is off and running with it or anything like that, but he has shown us he can play and help us no matter how we have used him or where he has played. He was another guy today whose execution was just off. I thought with all of our defense, for the most part, their execution was just off with the puck.Before our injuries and everything, Lily had done a good enough job to stay in the mix and for us to want to keep him playing and sit other people out in order to make that happen. He is earning confidence here."

An honest appraisal that Liljegren is improving, while keeping the kid grounded in the moment.
