So what does everyone think it takes to land Laich?
- hereticpride

4 million and 3 or 4 years, in which case i would pass.

Jesus Edmonton has man amazing talent pool there! Like holy poop! Get a dman, and they're a 7th-9th placed team next year!!

It would be overpaying, but i still think he would be worth it.

Hes a 20-30 power forward who plays in all situations, stands up for his teammates and has great leadership... think poor mans Primeau

Hartnell- Briere- Voracek
JVR-Laich-Giroux
Simmonds-Schenn-Versteeg
Powe-Betts-Sestito

I dunno about you guys, but I reallly like those lineups! And that's without Nodl or Couturier!
- FLYERSROCK!

I like the lineup to but I cant take Hartnell another year, just makes me depressed.

Notta chance in hell.. mybe 2-3 years down the line... they will proably miss the playoffs again next season.

It does give them a ton of options up front. I see no need to rush Couturier. But he could probably play in the NHL next year if needed.
- Jsaquella

I was thinking 1 more year in the Q and then AHL for seasoning, but since he's 18 i guess that means 2 more years in the Q?

Devan Dubnyk

All picks.
- Jsaquella

24 for 35 & 48

I think Konopka is over-rated to an extent IMO.

But he is a heart and soul guy that this team could definitely use as a 12-13th forward, but thats all he is.

He is, imo, not better then a healthy Blair Betts.
- mochoson

I want konopka on our 4th line. Great faceoffs and gritty.
betts will never be healthy again.

Nodl is gonna be a heck of a player next year.. I see 20-20 potential and a lot of defensive responsibilites
SC will be back in the Q.

Schenn is here to stay. And it's the AHL next year I believe.
Trade Versteeg. He is extremely expendable. Trade him for a prospect.
And Detroit gets fleeced. Not like it matters.

Does Bettman have Parkinson's? Why is he always shaking his head like that?

courteir was ranked #2 in the world till january
- mydoglicks

Then got sick. Oh well, I guess that means he's going to be a bust because he can't play while ill.

It could be. I think he plays next year in the Q and then we see where they sit with other pieces up front.

Is anyone comlaining about the trades now? It seems like we got alot of great talent and we got young as heck as well.. I think when we got courturier it was a nice cherry on top. I think homer set this team up wel and is gonna put the team together for lava.. It seems like these players will play into his system and I foresee la bieng the coach here for some time. It just seems like homer is going to get guys that will fit into lavas system

I dont understand how a routine 50 pointer who plays in all situations is expendable. What happens if a top 9 forward gets injured

The new Penguins.

Growing up he was the family remote. When they wanted the channel changed they would smack him in the back of the head.

Dubnyk. A .500 goalie on a well below .500 team. Not quite as good as Bob, but he's gonna be good.

The new Penguins.
