There’s a rumor that Chicago may be shopping Dylan Storm. The former 3rd overall pick is in the final year of a $3M AAV deal. I have to wonder if early talks about an extension are leading Bowman to shop the centerman. His qualifier will be based on the 3.6M in actual salary this year, and he has arbitration available. At 24, he’s certainly a good age for the group in Detroit. Let me know if you think it would be worth pursuing.
Theodor Niederbach finally got his first 2 points of the season with a goal and an assist. He’s averaging under 10 minutes and in 9 games has just 9 shots on goal. Soderblom is getting better minutes, but Niederbach seems to be struggling. Both, if they came over, would probably project at a 4th line in North America at this point.
The Denver pioneers had a big opening weekend and won 8-3 and 4-3 over Arizona St. Carter Mazur, drafted this year, scored his first 2 goals of the season. Neither Shai Buium (2021 draft) or Antti Tuomisto (2019 draft) made it on the scoreboard. Tuomisto had 4 shots in the first game and 1 in the second. Buium had 6 shots in the second game, none in the first.
