Mostly just box score watching. Holloway has put up points. I don’t think the other 3 have done much.

We had a sens poster come in and ask about jarventi and said XB has been bad.

Color me shocked. Oiler drafting strikes again.

I'd assume Janmark and Pod are penciled in at #3/#4LW, but Lavoie being able to play LW would let them use Janmark at #4C which is probably a huge upgrade on the alternatives.

Seems kind of counterintuitive to break up the third line, but if Lavoie wins a spot, that might be the best bottom six they could ice.

How exactly is Janmark an upgrade over Ryan as 4C?
Call him small, old, slow but Ryan will just continue to work his ass off. The coach knows it, the players know it.. Ryan is as valuable as Brown, Janmark and Henrique in our bottom 6 if not more.

Because Janmark is a better player

Because Janmark is a better player

He isn't a better C.. better player is debatable as well. Both could and likely will see some time in PB this season.

Cup contenders don't gamble on some kid who has played 30 NHL games total, being able to play top 4 minutes

all our hopes are tied with Emberson…

Are we talking about Emberson or Broberg… just checking

If it’s Broberg, yeah, all of our hopes would be tied there.

With Emberson we have 2 times ~$4.5M in cap flexibility. One player can be added with our $945 growing to ~4.5 at the deadline…

Then LTIR Kane and use his ~$5M on another new addition.

Nobody is tied to Emberson. He gives us huge cap flexibility.

Broberg did not.
