Neomaxizoomdweebie 3,083 Report post Posted July 18, 2021 (edited) 22 minutes ago, BarkBurgerman said: Bear in mind this was the 52nd pick given up for Leddy. We still have the 48 and the 38. Most expect Nielsen to be bought out and become UFA. Leddy mentioned him twice. I think the bigger question is Nielsen playing out his contract? Yes but he is still on the roster for one more year unless he gets bought out later. And yes, I would buy him out if Seattle does not take a forward. Figure that's what SY is waiting on.

Maybe so, but it would appear that SY is waiting to see what happens with rhe expansion draft. If he is even considering it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neomaxizoomdweebie 3,083 Report post Posted July 21, 2021 Maybe it was a form of "Mandela Effect". In some parallel dimension, maybe Mandela was a famous athlete who helped to bring about change thru sports. Who are we to question which alternate timelines Bernier has experienced.? 1 hour ago, Akakabuto said: Disappointing. Don't think he'll do any better on the open market tho. Contenders will want him as a backup, so good luck getting paid. If he wants to be a starter, his options will be limited to bad teams like Detroit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 5,129 Report post Posted July 21, 2021 Re: Nielsen. Popular buyout candidate. I'm all for it, but with Brome splitting, Svech probably not bring qualified, Filppula, Helm, Gagner, Ryan, Glenny all UFA, it's quite possible Yzerman will need him to fill out roster and get to the cap floor.
