moulson plays really decent d for a slow forward

keep the expectations low and he is fine for 3rd line and second team pp

it's a bad contract, but not a bad person in the locker room and does show consistent effort

Not for $5 million per year and a no movement clause, he isn't.

Wait..... Sooo... He's bouncing back like Samson or he's a total waste of money and embarrassing like Leino...

his only option is to have a good summer and bounce back next season or he's moving his family to Vegas, Moving his family to Rochester or to 29 other NHL cities if he can be offloaded to one of them.
Unless a team NEEDS a $5M cap hit, I have no idea why anyone would take him off our hands if his play continues the same way.

Does for me. Means that we can put him in the expansion draft regardless of what the NHLPA agreed to today, and that if worst comes to worst we can dump him in Rochester and save ~1M. It's not a ton but it's better than buying him out and getting that penalty. Only player after this year that will have an NMC is Bogosian. I don't believe Murray has handed one out yet.

Hard to say but MR. 7 Letters is their prime focus as of now but, we all know how Murray is.

4th in west this year
best in west last season
best in west season before
second best in west season before


all regular season of course

team is not bad, IMO they will make a few tweaks and assume the coach can fix it

And yet we should give up on a certain 22 year told former first found pick who skates well, hits, can play center or wing, and is still very cheap, just because he had a down year goal-wise?

I know we are stuck w/o MM but no way do I want to get rid of 28, even with Larsson on board. We are too soft even with both.

Couple of points. Girgensons sounds like he needs a new change of scenery fast! We need to trade him now. I don't want a guy on the team talking about how he doesn't like the coach or the fans. Obviously he didn't use those words but we all know what he meant.

Expansion draft... I'm curious to see what happens with Bogosian because Murray last time he spoke on the matter seemed as if he didn't have any NMC players on his team. So it's possible Bogosians NMC deal was voided? Not sure on that but I'm not officially sold on the fact that he has a NMC
