Super high floor. Super low cieling. Youre getting an almost guaranteed NHL player, but hes not really good at aything besides positional defense. He'll be a low scoring 2nd pair key that never wows you but is acceptable. Kinda like Brad. Safe choice. Id rather go hard n fast.

Reinbacher is the next Brad Stuart. Hard pass. Willander is good. Sandin-Pelikka is better. Beau Akey is the best.

I dont think Brad touched those kids

Michkov also intends to play the next 3 seasons in the KHL according to his agent last month. I'm thinking Yzer wants a guy he can use in 2024-25.

He's trying to be friends with the players again just like Blash. That's fine by me in a rebuild, since our rebuild basically restarted when Yzerman came on. But after a few years of that, when Seider/Ray/Ed/Kasper are entering their prime, he should be canned for a hard nose winner.

Dan Watson, longtime Walleye coach, is the new Griffs coach. The Walleye did pretty good under him so this is good I hope.

He's actually biting his tongue for Chelios in this story. And if you believe Fil he gave vets in general that courtesy. Pretty nice thing to do, considering other big coaches like Bill Belicheck were known to go out of their to yell at vets and stars like Tom Brady in order to demonstrate to the rest of the team that they run the show... And its a funny story, but Chelios is kinda being a prick himself by exploaiting that courtesy to get Babs mad for a laugh.

You can if you kno what youre looking for

Vegas makes me think Seattle is next in line.

Looking like the cup gets lifted tonight. Unrelated, but Vegas is ga-y

Victor Olofsson says he expects to be traded out of Buffalo This could be the guy for us. 28 year old Swedish left wing. Averages a 50 pt a season pace over his career. 26 goal pace over his career. I watched a lot of him when I lived in Buffalo. Not physical. Very good shot. Very quick stick. Would be an asset on the PP. The complaints about him in Buffalo are that he doesn't play defense and F's up alot, or that he doesn't fit their system. I tend to agree with the later. Granato employs a very loose system that allows players to improvise. Lot's of defensive switches and changes which requires a player to constantly read the play correctly. Olfsson gets lost in this. IMO Olofsson needs a clear assignment in a rigid system. IMO if he moves to the correct system you could see him have a 60 pt 30 goal season. Do you think Lalonde's system is rigid enough for him? He's no Babcock, but I also don't think he's as loose as Granato is. I think we could get him for cheap, throw him into the middle 6, and get his best season ever as a PP scoring forward.

Copy and pasting a Fil interview that a user on another board translated. Asked about Babcock being a dick:

I appreciate ur understanding. Carry on.

Seider is great Larkin is a ***** Berggren is a ***** Raymond is a ***** Soderblom is a *****

Connecticut is literally just a highway connecting NYC and Boston. And any fans there are already watching the booins or rags. They dont need a franchise. Gary will opt for SLC or Atlanta part deux. Also I'm pretty sure Carolina still owns anything Whalers affiliated. A team would have to buy all that crap from them, so itd likely end up becoming a brand new team like the Hartford Sperm Whales or something. Only reason Plymouth Whalers could use the name was cause Karmanos owned both Carolina and Plymouth.

To DET: Debrincat To OTT: Perron + Fabbri We also have Veleno, Zadina, and Lindstrom's RFA rights, but I doubt anyone has much interest in that lot. But maybe Winnipeg might? As it seems they're gonna blow everything up and Hellbuck isn't going to re-sign. They'd be best to just trade him now, when he still has a full season of value. To DET: Hellybuck To WPG: Zadina + Lindstrom + This years 17th overall Connor Garland is also rumored to be a free asset from Van. Maybe if we give something we can jump to the front of the pack and have him for cheap? To DET: Garland To VAN: Veleno + 4th Then for the 4th line we assemble a beefcake grindline in UFA, and grab Radko Gudas for the 3rd pair Rasmussen - Larkin - Debrincat Kubalik - Copp - Raymond Beggren - Kasper - Garland Engvall - Girgensons - Hathaway Soderblom/Mazur Walman - Seider Edvinsson - Chiarot Maata - Gudas McIsaac Hellybuck Husso Stalwart goaltending + big D corps + 3 scoring lines and a big nasty grindline + very young team (Gudas and Chiarot can be the dads)
