Hopefully there are a few more tricks up Botts' sleeve.

I would start with Beaulieau, Larsson and McCabe. Botts will need to move a few guys.

I don’t understand the willingness to throw McCabe away.

He’s done pretty well in his role the whole time he has been here. Why turn on him how?

dahlin, scandella, guhle all LD

plus all the ones we drafted and signed in the last 2 years


scandella guhle or mccabe will need to go in the next 12 months, so pick your poison

I feel we get a better return from mccabe due to his contract

Bjorkqvist is a mix of Hornqvist and Chris Kreider are you sure he's even available? I think the cost would be Jake McCabe and a second

mccabe fills a need for the pens now

He was fifth on the team in goals, which he did mostly at even strength. He's overpaid, but he was actually decent last year. 16 goals is nothing to sneeze at
-jcragcrumple


Sure, but he had like half those in the first 3 weeks with that great start he had
After that, he was pretty mediocre

It’s pretty unlikely he will play much with Eichel this year
It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Pominville is right around 10 goals this season

Guhle might get the best return bc he’s still an “up & coming” prospect who’s thought highly of

After that...
Scandella has the better resume than McCabe
So even though he has the bigger salary,
I think Scandella would fetch us more in a trade
A team who’s close to the Cap would probably prefer McCabe though

*i hope we extend McCabe BEFORE this season starts
His price tag is only gonna go up

He was our 4th best forward last year. Certainly not a good thing.

I’m thinking Pominville starts as RW3 this season,
but likely gets jumped at some point by one of the kids (Baptiste, Bailey, Nylander, etc)
