Hes in a good spot now and id suspect the hawks would retain the younger lehner or maybe keep both at cheaper options and, cant see crawford getting 6 again I'd take Lehner on a 4yr x 4mil deal but that's my absolute max. The others are 2 years and 2 million max deal guys in my view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,767 Report post Posted November 27, 2019 I know he "fought" Simmonds the other night, but for the last two or three weeks I kept wondering when he was going to punch someone. Maybe he wouldn't have been waived if he'd been more punchy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's time to move on from Howie... https://thehockeynews.com/news/article/money-men-a-quarter-season-look-at-the-seven-best-pending-ufa-goalie-options I like Markstrom the most and hope we have a chance at him. I doubt it because I am sure he's done with being apart of rebuilds and maybe wants to try and win. My gut says we sign Domingue. As for D, any interest in Edmundson? I think he would be solid if CAR doesn't lock him up. Edited November 29, 2019 by xault 1 mackel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your gut is probably pretty right It's just depressing that what we probably have to look forward to is basically another Bernier and another Nemeth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mackel 767 Report post Posted November 30, 2019 Tankathon is up to date with this seasons data... Ran the sim 20 times... highest finish 2nd, most common finish 4th, in almost every run 1 or 2 low odds teams make a huge jump and snag a top 2 pick. If that's the way it plays out, after this abysmal season I'm not sure I could continue to watch the next few seasons. I'm not a bandwagon fan but another 2-3 years go by without significant improvement the likes of Larkin, Bert, Mantha our older core players will likely want to move on. This next draft is critical... we need a top 3 pick or this is gonna get even uglier. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This next draft is critical... we need a top 3 pick or this is gonna get even uglier. You ran it 20 times and you didn't get a single 1st overall?!?! I'm not sure that's even possible. I mean, you're bound to get a lot of 4th overalls, because that's just how the odds work. But no 1sts in 20 tries is "glitch in The Matrix" territory. The good news for us (maybe) is this is looking like it's gonna be a pretty deep draft (maybe). Lafreniere and Byfield are the guys who will probably be ready to make an immediate impact, but there's going to be other really good players. I do think you're kinda right tho -- we need to pull something wonderful out of this draft or s*** could get very, very, very disappointing ugly. I'm hoping for Lafreniere/Byfield and a couple of big UFA signings. And a coaching change. And Seider. If we get all those things, we might have a shot at the 2021 playoffs. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like, you'll get a really rough run and then you may get a really great run and then you'll get kinda meh results and then you'll get a bad run and a great run etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
