Perfect has trouble finishing chances just what we need
didn’t you want us to pursue foegele?Perfect has trouble finishing chances just what we need
It’s it not what they had roster-wise was getting it done. Change was inevitable.If NJ ends up with Pesce and Marchy to go along with the Markstrom trade.... Yeah, we are going to have a very tough time keeping pace with that. And looking at the Metro, things could get dicey for us with NYR already being better than us last year and not really losing anything, the Devils loading up, the Flyers bringing in Michkov and us being in a complete roster upheaval.
If we don't absolutely nail it in FA, we might be in a dogfight for a wild card spot next year.
Robinson is mostly being brought in for his PK acumen. Pesce/Skjei was the first PK pairing, with both leaving the forwards are going to need to be better.Perfect has trouble finishing chances just what we need
That much??The NHL seems to care as much about tampering as they do about officiating
In that case I’d say make the same pitch I was arguing for with Necas: Jarvis and Stamkos compete for 2C and 1RW.He isn’t a center anymore.
we will give Z the 6x6 deal, maybe keep SkjeiWatch the “big” move today be them trading for Chychrun or another D
no, no...you misread my comment....it's not Guentzel, its the Dundon "process" that is associated with buying a car at a traditional dealer.Interesting side Gold puts on the “car dealer”
Given Pittsburgh had reports that Guentzel was always going to 7/1 to test the market and Guentzel turned around and said he wanted to stay but Pitt didn’t talk to him about a long-term deal and then seeing what happened here (late repeat of his salary demands, met, went 7/1 anyway) my conclusion is Guentzel doesn’t just look like a used car dealer.
Play the kids, get a high draft pick next year/perhaps 2, and look for '26 and beyond as the next highly competitive window.If NJ ends up with Pesce and Marchy to go along with the Markstrom trade....

TT no no no
Pesce has made every partner better--given Hughes' currently trajectory, if Pesce makes him better Hughes will join his brother in the Norris conversation soon.Pesce is a bad fit for NJ imo. Yes they need a good partner for a couple of young defenders but he doesn’t move the puck or join the rush. Seems like a bad system fit
Who's going to convince the coach to go with that approach?Play the kids, get a high draft pick next year/perhaps 2, and look for '26 and beyond as the next highly competitive window.
good move for them....TT's lack of physicality won't matter in NY and his defensive acumen will help.
Yes, but in this case it was a dealer trying to sell to a used car salesman.no, no...you misread my comment....it's not Guentzel, its the Dundon "process" that is associated with buying a car at a traditional dealer.
huh, good move for next few years.Pesce is a bad fit for NJ imo. Yes they need a good partner for a couple of young defenders but he doesn’t move the puck or join the rush. Seems like a bad system fit
TT no no no
or the player got tired of dealing with the car salesmen and went to another dealer (and got a better car). Normal people walk into dealers, get pissed and walk out....it happens everyday (well I don't...I never buy from dealers anymore)Yes, but in this case it was a dealer trying to sell to a used car salesman.
And as soon as he had a deal locked in, he shopped that deal around to try and beat it.
I don’t think timing would have mattered here; Guentzel and his agent would still have shopped that 8x8 around and ended up elsewhere.
