We can more than afford the cap hit, and he's only getting paid $2 million in real dollars this year. Leddy - Hronek Dekeyser - Subban Cholowski - Seider Lindstrom Better yet, maybe you convince NJD to retain 50%. Now he's only $4.5. Then we retain half at the deadline and trade him and now he's only $2.25 for the receiving team. Not sure if you can retain twice on one contract.

I'd take him if they're incentivising us, absolutely. Pass on eichel for that price. Maybe for bert, and two firsts.

They're the same age, same size, make the same money, same contract length, both steady players that don't do any one thing particularly well... I guess D is slightly more important? But then again we have two prominent RHD now and like no decent centers.... Yeah but Phil ate pizza on camera one time I don't care if we lose Stecher or Namestnikov. I just wanna see if anything comes of Cholowski. 1 amato reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But not by much I guess For me it's a toss up between Namestnikov or Stecher. I wouldn't put Cholowski in that same group though. He, unlike the other two, still has potential, regardless how likely you think it is he hits that potential... 16 minutes ago, BarkBurgerman said: I find it funny that folks are high as balls on Stecher, but totally cool with chucking Namestnikov. 4 minutes ago, BarkBurgerman said: I'll never understand the bend over backwards affection for Troy Stecher. Who is high as balls / bending over backwards for Stecher? He's a solid depth defenseman, but hardly worth getting upset over if we lose in the expansion draft. Very replaceable.

If I said something similar about your boy Ras... Zadina's on track so Mackel's just trolling. My intent with Veleno is never to troll. I really like him. But comparing Veleno and his so-far 5 game NHL career to a player that had one of the best individual shutdown center runs in recent playoff history? How can I not make fun of this? How? Tell me?

Nobody is accusing Veleno of being at that level in the NHL yet. But based on his play in other leagues, it is what is he is expected to grow into. Hence why locking up Denault would not be all that great. Short term would be fine, sure. But we are starving for an offensive-minded center right now. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, if he did, I suspect it would be to free up Larkin to produce more offence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
