Zadina just turned 22. He should have 300 goals by now. We have to dump this bust.

To Vancouver: Kane + 100 million To SJ: 7th rounder

not at this stage? this is the ONLY stage where we CAN pay big money. We currently have 9 forwards, 4 defenseman, and 1 goalie tied up for 2022-23 at 41 mil. Add Fabbri, Berggren, Soderblom, Pearson, and Hirose. 48 mil. Add Edvinsson, Johansson, McIsaac, Lindholm. 60 mil. Still lots of room for Seider, Raymond, Larkin raises.

Zadina will be fine. I like the guy.

its ok to like our team!

i think Blash is an Yzerman guy.

Unless you want to compete for the stanley cup, of course.

He's 22. Wait til Vrana comes back.

I disagree. We have exactly 0 games LHD NHL experience going into next year for top 4. Seider - ? Hronek - ? Lindstrom - Oesterle Lindholm and Edvinsson would give us possibly the best d corp in the league. We have the cap space. This is what you use it on.

if we make the playoffs, he will be back.

Lindholm is only 27. 8 years, 56 million is what he will get from the Ducks as an offer. Gonna take 7 years, 56 million from the Wings to even get a conversation started. I would be looking hard at him if I was Stevie.

i know. I just thought Id say it, since all the Zadina hatets seem to think someone said it.

yah, stevie has his work cut out for him.

Can we get Hampus Lindholm? I think he's the top UFA available. He's gonna cost us 8.5 mil per for 7 years. I think we should take a run at him. He'd look fantastic next to Seider. Lindholm-Seider Edvinsson-Hronek Johansson-Lindstrom Osterle Thats a good 7 to start next year.

When Vrana comes back, Zadina-Names-Vrana will be agood 2nd line.

He has good players now, and he's playing them. When Eddog and Aljo replace Dekeyser and Leddy next year, we are going to be a very tough team to beat.

Raymond is the right handed version of Zadina. We are lucky to have 2 good scorers.

yah, seems like most want him to be a ppg player. thats gonna be tough.

You are wrong. He plays and processes a DIFFERENT game. Raymond has free reign out on the ice and can do what he wants because Larkin and Bert will cover for him if he makes mistakes. Zadina is trying to play a game where he is never out of position. That LOOKS like he's not processing the play correctly, but it actually is just him covering any potential mistakes instead of playing carelessly. I am all for Zadina scoring 40 pts a year and playing great defense.

both make 3-4 times as much.

So what if China gets beat. China knows hockey isnt its thing.

watch the ot goal last night. he does not and will not play the body. he puck watches and allows forwards all the room they want. its crap. im not saying dekeyser is better.

Leddy is so weak defensively. Im ready for the Nick Leddy experiment to end. Bring in the Swedes and lets get the youngsters in the fire.

Yamamoto is Zadinas measuring stick. Not Brendan Shanahan, Glen Anderson, or Boom Boom Geoffrion. Zadina haters are so high right now. Kaller has .46 ppg playing on the best team in the league, playing with the 2nd best center in the league, and is a year+ older than Zadina with conparable NHL experience. Zadina has .42 ppg playing with much less talented center talent (no offense to our guys), playing on a bottom feeder team (so far), and plays responsibly per his coaching (unlike 2 former whipping boys we shipped out recently). There is absolutely nothing to dislike right now about Zadina other than he is misding Vrana to make his line more efficient.

Mo is a German. He will be fine.
