If Ullmark opts out, we get that 2.6mill back for cap purposes right.

Agreed but I’d say Hoffman does more at EV.

When Curtis Lazar and Tobias Reider are getting more shots and chances 5 on 5 than you, it’s an issue

- sbroads24


Olofsson would probably do more at even strength to if he played with Eichel instead of Staal

Hoffman had Stone in Ottawa.

Spent time with the likes of Barkov, Huberdeau, Dadonov in Florida.

Both Olofsson and Hoffman are elite PP producers whom get caved in at even strength.

Perhaps a slightly worse Swedish Hoffman ?

deadline to opt out has passed

Know that I see it, Staal is slow, unless he picks it up, he's not helping that 2nd line.

What did you expect he's 36. Anyone think Cozens could move to centre anytime soon?

really?


in 2 of the three losses we allowed 5 goals

we played 2 backup goalies and scored 1 goal in both games

if this team is putting up 3 or 4 goals a night we have 3 wins right now, not one


if we had hasek in his prime we are 1-3 with the goals we are scoring

- homiedclown


Couldn’t have said it better myself. You are right on. Score some goals. All we heard before was how much secondary scoring was better and now we would have to win games every night with 4 or 5 goals. Maybe try 1 or 2 to start.

I think he’s capable of it but I don’t think Kreuger will do it.

We already have the scoring help we need,
unless u think Jack & Hall will continue at their current pace of only 1 combined goal

Staal, Skinner & Cozens all without a goal so far as well
And don’t forget 20g TT either 😂

I’m 100% sure hall and eichel will deliver starting tonight. I’m also not as sure but hoping Ullmark has good weekend as he is capable of.
I’m not at all as concerned about the goaltending as I am with the secondary scoring. I know it’s a small sample size but the secondary scoring is what will make or break this team in the end. We need Staal, Skinner, Olafson and I believe Okposo to provide the most behind the big guns which includes Sam.

Let's see how Ullmark responds tonight, could push things forward quicker.

Ullmark is going to play. He must not have a way home and or it isn’t practical enough with all the hoops to jump. I really feel for the kid. Praying this team plays it’s ass off!

He’s been incredibly bad at 5 on 5 this year

It’s not impressive to score a few points when you’re on the ice with Eichel, Reinhart and Hall when the other team is missing a guy

- sbroads24


I think you have a good point to some degree.

Goals beat the other team. Goals are scored by goal scorers. Olofsson is a sniper goal scorer.

I think a shortened rookie season plus 4 games this year is a pretty small sample size 🤔

Although he missed a few opportunities and hit a post last game, olofsson has has been noticeably good.
I guess we see what we want. Both of us 🤝

Surprised they announced it, unless they had to, would have kept the Bill's guessing.
