Contract up after this season. Very replaceable just like most of our bottom six
- MCGUIZZY



Replaceable, sure
But unless his salary spikes, I'd still project him in the lineup over Carrier, and maybe Fasching. At least as far as the 4th line goes. Fasching should either be in the top9 or hopefully traded to get something back. He's a waste of an asset on our 4th line

Not necessarily. Doesnt mean he stays there. he can be eased in..

And I would like to do better than Larsson once we are good

You're going to have to be more specific. Ray Rice? Greg Hardy?

He has not come over for any of the dev camps (was eligible for at least two so far). Oloffson on the other hand has. There has been speculation that he doesnt have any desire to come over. Kris baker has hinted that he thinks hes very comfortable in Sweden and just may simply want to stay there


Dvorak was a notable player that we could have drafted over Karabacek as well

- MCGUIZZY



Idk about this one, but he was injured for the last one
Maybe he does wanna stay in Sweden, but at this point I'd say we're jumping the gun assuming that
Time will tell

Damn, I'll have to check it out. It looks really funny, and Walton Goggins is underrated funny. If anyone watched Justified they know.

- MCGUIZZY



Idk... If we have to "ease" in Fasching I think I'd rather just trade him while his value is high. Seems like the kind of prospect that's hit or miss

As far as Larsson goes,
For a 4th liner, I think he's perfect. Good defensively. Enough offensive skill that he can chip in here & there and move up when injuries occur. Pretty good skater, possible PK guy.

His value is not very high. Personally i think he'll be a 3rd liner with potential on the pp

No you are right. I mean i would certainly love for him to come over. He reminds me alot of Pomminville. I just have higher hopes for Oloffson

Disagree on his value
He's a pretty good prospect. Probably the #1 asset we have as far as making a trade
Murray is really high on him though, so he might be off the table in any deal

Possler looked so good that year after he was drafted. Then he got hurt & struggled for a bit to re-gain form.
This will be a big year for him IMO
Olofsson too though
If we could hit on even just one of those 2 it would be great

It was funny, Walton Goggins is a good actor. It's on again tonight at 8:00 eastern time.

He signed a new 2 year deal I believe
But like I said before,
Many NHL teams are ok letting their prospects develop overseas. Especially in Finland & Sweden where the league's are pretty good.
I think we might be reading too much into it is all

I hope they don't go the Bush or Rice route. I'm fine with Gillislee and hope McCoy can stay healthy. What's Karlos's deal? He had some kind of personal medical injury around this time last year too. Didn't miss 4 friggin games though. I want it to work out for him. He was great in a spell role. Scored some awesome touchdowns.

If ur looking for a backup call the Jets...probably could get Zac Stacey on the cheap

Now that would be awesome. Maybe a camp casualty. I can't stand all the hiring of ex Jets that started with the Rex hiring, but that one I wouldn't mind. Little bit more of a bruiser. Good change of pace from McCoy. Great call
