Has there been any insight as to what habs will do? I am assuming very little which is disappointing. If not for our recent streak we'd have a lot of guys on the move for assets and we'd give a lot of the laval crew a crack at big leagues.
 
You don’t think the worst 5v5 player on the team and a rookie could use a responsible 200 foot player as their centre?

Also his salary is manageable if you find an even better option for 2C, that he can play 3C no issue

In that case, Jake Evans could do that too. Its definitly a better option than Beck, but we're far from a Cozens type of player. Demidov and Laine needs an offensive stimulant, but yeah also responsible defensively for sure.

I think it's pretty clear we have a need for a 2C and a 3-4th D with terms. We're not in the market for a loan player and we're not in the market to trade players for picks.

Only way we make a trade is a hockey trade IMO.


And of course, help for Laval
 
We do not have a center to trade to Buffalo. Norris is a hell of a player the 12 games he plays per year. If Buffalo wanted a center back to replace the center they were losing in Cozens, then we never had a chance to get him.

Except Evans career high is 29 points. Zacha is a 60 point player.

Yeah they gave an oft-injured productive centre. We only have an oft-injured non productive centre who might not actually be good at centre.
