Ok I’ll elaborate but won’t show you up with intelligence. I’ll play on your level lol

You said not me Dries or Aman not I. I’ll paint a picture for you…

With wingers this roster has it’s a very simple concept. C’s play 200’ responsible hockey & use their wingers strengths. Sutter is gone. He was a black hole C. Wingers are fed head man passes & push with speed & skill. Get D on their heels keeping the wingers wide. Zone entered. From their it’s onto puck possession & grinding. When achieved it wears down Ops & the lines that follow have a leg up to continue that. 1st & 2nd scoring lines become more dangerous & lethal now. All of this can fall apart with turnovers or poor decisions. Smart hockey is always a trait of winners. It has to be a team mentality such as RT harps on. Any mistake can be overcome it’s when more mistakes follow up the 1st. Dominos leads to bad hockey.

Skate & work hard & play smart for each other. Hockey is all about team.

Another name I've heard with the #Canucks and NCAA free agency.

Max Andreev

He is a centre with Cornell.

There you go that’s better than more costly retreads. If he pans out it’s better competition.

And he never texted me first?

I just trolled him.

Odd that his tweet's aren't showing up lately, I see them retweeted by someone else and go to his page and they aren't there.

I lean towards 1st deal more with the cap then sign 1 key UFA D eg Gavrikov or Soucy at a decent price. If 2 D then more trades for cap are needed & tbh it could rankle the fans of what that price could be.

NJD up on Canes 2-0. NJD is my example of straight on speed that can break down a team like the Canes. Get them outta their comfort zone.

Yup & comes down to price & if he would sign. Left shot but plays both sides. A year or 2 ago someone brought him up when in Minny.

Hughes Soucy
Gavrikov Hronek
OEL Bear
Cheap Cheap

Myers has to go for this to be even possible. Will be very pricey oof 🤪

Bear has to be grinded on his next contract. Say 3/1.75Mish

Soucy was 2.75m might take 3-3.5m

Gavrikov said he’s testing the UFA market so no bargain to be had here if open to leaving the LAK. Was 2.8m so maybe 4.5-5Mish?

That's Jett Woo laying the body on 6'6" Keaton Middleton.

I've said it a lot over the past two months...

Jett Woo is playing the best hockey of his pro career lately. He's still pretty far from being an NHLer but recently, he has been trending in the right direction.

Link to provide a potential idea on next seasons roster & how cap would work.

https://www.capfriendly.c.../armchair-gm/team/4050900

Not betting on this but just using what UFA’s are out there. Agree or disagree is fine by me & even better if you choose to tweak & adjust more to your liking.

He’s had so many setbacks along with slow to adjust. Still some hope.

Bottom pair d in the top4, soucy cant play 20 minutes the guy is a solid bottom pair player but thats it. We really dont need more of those. If schenn comes back, same player for half the price.
