StL fans are happy to have that contract gone
They feel he’s on the decline
We may be looking to dump him in a couple years

Cracks me up when you pull up the Islander's goalies, and see DiPietro's buyout on their books until the 28-29 season.

Yeah 3.8 was a real strain on their cap. I like the guy, always have, He's a versatile forward that can easily chip in on the offense. He had 40 goals in his last 2 seasons and only played 57 games last year. I just don't get the hate for him.

Could say the same thing about O'reilly.

Because he didn’t set the faceoff record.

Idk either
Imo, he’s been a solid player for them
But they watch him every night & i see him play a handful of times throughout the year

I guess we will find out though

You know O’Reilly is gone, right?
And yet you keep bringing him up
Why?

My one concern is he has had some injuries the last few years and at his age could be slowing him down a bit. I think if he is used properly, he could be a 20/20 guy. I certainly hope so.

If he plays with Eichel or Mitts

But I could also see him being a 10-12goal guy if he’s our defensive 3C

All last year he played LW. I would assume he plays with Mitts and takes the draws.

I could see that and then Sobatka plays the defensive Center role

Both he & Berglund play LW and Center

I'm excited for him. I think he's a very under rated part of the deal. He should be able to pot 15-18 I think. I view him as a 3C, but I get the idea of putting him at LW with where we're at.

Yes they both have that versatility which is nice. I guess we’ll see what happens coming training camp and preseason games.

If the leafs get De Haan as well as Tavares they might very well win a cup in the next couple of years.
