Me too 36.
I think he is the most reasonable in terms of acquisition cost, production, age.

BTW, remember about 6 weeks ago someone posted that Strome was playing Wing rather than Center and posted a link to a website that listed Kane between DeBrincat and Strome as the rationale? https://frozenpool.dobber....com/players/dylan-strome
Ya, I later determined the site listed players in alphabetical order across the line-combos, lol.

I now use CapFriendly's Depth Charts page under "Fantasy Tools" tab....find it to be much more accurate.

Like the idea 39, but who are we trading to get Bonino, Anderson and Strome.
- Buff36


Defensemen, both on the roster and prospects, along with the 2021 1st round pick, and more if needed.

I would think that Cozens and Tage are gonna take spots in your middle 6, so basically we need a stop gap 2C and probably another RW. I would expect atleast 1 compliance buyout and that would be used on Okposo, unless he gets talked into retirement, then I would use it on Hutton, and bring in Greiss or Markstrom short term. Resign Larsson and Girgs and Lazar with the money saved from Okposo.

What’s your lineup looking like then?

I literally just got this exact console. It works great and games are easy to download.

If your into lord of the rings/game of thrones time of thing I would HIGHLY recommend Witcher III.

- feetontheair22

My son wants the new console, don't know if I will buy it or make him use his own money. I don't know it's weird times, kids don't talk to each other anymore, even when there together they are all still on there phones. I mean atleast when I was growing up we would get outside to do things or even meet up at Great Games or something to talk and try to hook up with girls. I took my son's phone away and he didn't know what to do with himself.

Buy one used or try to spend as little as possible on one.

The new system comes out in November.

Buying a system now is throwing away good money on a bad investment.

I have a hard and fast rule when buying consoles. Always wait til next black friday. You'll spend at least $100 less, and in the mean time your current console will still be able to play all the new games that come out.

I have a PS4 personally. Can’t go wrong though with either console.

I just took my PS4 out and played it for the first time in almost a year because of this Quarantine

If Anderson is healthy would love to add him to the roster, he can take Tages spot on the 3rd line.

Tage and hickey to Fl for Vatrano
- Michael Pachla

Who is Hickey? I think Vatrano would be missed by FL, and I hope they keep him. He brings some grit and a good shot and he is also pretty damn fast. I think Tallon and Q value what Vatrano brings to the team, but if the offer is too good to refuse....who knows?
FL got Haula in the Trocheck trade, he'll be a free agent this off season. He's only been here a handful of games, I have heard nothing as to FL's long term thoughts on him. Q seems to like him, though. I imagine Haula will be listening to offers whenever free agency actually begins this year.

Hmmmm....
Idk about Kahun at Center?
I’d put Cozens at 3C i think
More responsibility, but easier matchups too

I don’t have faith in Tage amounting to much
A guy like Craig Smith could be nice in that spot
Or anyone we know can score 20goals

Sure, then enjoy watching all 82 games from the press box then. Force them out. If you want to play hockey again, it won’t be in Tampa.

Trading a guy who will be on the ballot for the Selkie for the next 10 years because of being scared guys wouldn’t waive their NTC would be bad business.

- Pegullaville


They’re gonna put all the guys that won’t waive in the press box?
They can’t afford to bring in guys to replace them
Gotta figure they’ll find a way to make it work out
But hopefully teams will make it a bit harder than Vancouver did ffs

Tage is only there if Anderson is not healthy, if Anderson is healthy then he would be in that spot. And Mojo and Kahun were splitting C responsibilities the games they were together. Want Cozens to get comfortable, only reason he is starting on the wing. When he is ready he goes to 2C and Strome drops to 3C
