This is pretty funny to me because earlier this month I traded for Edmundson in NHL 19, but was able to extend Faulk for 3 more years and less per year he is currently making. Instead of Faulk, I'll trade Hamilton either the season I'm in or next since he has making a lot per month. I should be able to get a good player and pick for him.

Don’t know much about Bokk but from what I’ve read since the trade he has elite offensive potential and is a RH forward which is exactly what we need. Edmundson is a solid D and will fit right in on our bottom pair. I think I like the trade though I still think what could’ve been with potential trades to Anaheim or Winnipeg (Faulk+ for Kase, Ehlers, even Laine...). I am glad that it’s finally settled though and our roster is coming into form. Only questions now are does Necas or Gauthier get the last forward spot and which D starts on the 3rd pair before TVR comes back (probably Fleury but maybe Bean).

This deal hinges on Bokk.  If he turns out then we won the trade.  If he's trash then STL won. Either way we're not having to pay Faulk's contract.  It's unfortunate, really like and respect the guy.  

Well we won the trade...just because we were able to get assets for an expiring contract we were going to lose anyway.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
