Hall and Mikko will play tonight for the Canes as well. 
 

The Canes will have 35-40m in cap space to fill out the team. Mikko wants 8x14m, give it to him. Let burns and Orlov walk and play nikishin and the younger guys on defense and/or make a smart signing in FA. 


go get a goalie and fill out the rest of the wingers with 10-12m in cap space. 

I have a feeling burns will be back on a one year deal   If he plays less minutes, I’m all for it.  Nikishin and Morrow will be up next year to replace Orlov and maybe Walker. 
 

Depending on how Freddie does in the playoffs, it will be him and koochie or someone else and koochie. 
 

we still need a center.  Badly. If that’s one of prospects, wonderful, if not, I fully expect them to go get a good one. $30 plus mill is a ton to work with. Esp when we already have a solid core. 
 

and yes, I fully expect moose to sign with us. We have the money. Pay him. Yo I don’t get top 6 to top 10 NHL players often. We now have one. Better than anyone on this team in including aho. Better than Guentzel. On par with prime Eric Staal. A true ELITE star.

They could put Mikko on the second line and run something like this and fix the center issue. 
 

Sevch - Aho - Blake

Hall - Mikko - Jarvis

Marty - Staal - Jaaska 

Robinson - KK - Roslovic

That’s four strong lines imo and Jost and Carrier coming back for the playoffs gives some movement wing wise.

I think we bring Burns back on a team friendly deal if he doesn't retire.

Definitely a possibility for sure, I was just saying that even if they give Mikko 14m AAV, they would have 9 forwards, 4 defenseman and 1 goalie with 26m in cap space left over. If Nikshin comes over like expected then that’s 5 defenseman plus a ton of youth that should be ready to come up.

I just hope we keep our farm system top tier with the new GM. It is such a nice thing to have guys constantly coming up and contributing.

Yeah, Rantanen is arguably a superstar level player, which we don't have.

It's not really arguable he's been Mckinnons Draisaitl.... top 5 in points the last five years, 55 goal season will probably have his fourth 40+ this year. 

 

He's a superstar he was PPG plus even with Mckinnon out.

 

We have that now.

 

This guy CAN SCORE

KK seems like an obvious option to move but he really has to start humming so we can sell high like we did with Necas. I love Necas but I don't think you will see him blossom into a consistent 100 point scorer like Rantanen is.

I think he has a shot of that in Colorados system him feeding Mcdavid he's gonna rack up assists. Rantanen is a pure goal scorer who can also distribute he won't get Rantanen numbers but I could see him putting up 30 50 with Colorado

Robinson and Roslovic are both UFAs after this season.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, if Moore really wants out, then it would behoove the Bears to make it happen sooner than later. X is a lot younger and cheaper, and may be a better fit for Johnson's musings than a disgruntled, unnecessary, overpaid vet. If they can dump his salary and maybe get a fourth or so in return, it may be worth it to them. As for development, I'm not concerned. You're talking about a seeming bust, a day three guy and a UDFA. They are developing relative to their ceilings. I doubt any of them will ever command the coverage, money, or the respect that Moore has acquired. He's a tier above them. Yes, even X.

      OK, now it's time to discuss a couple of yesterday's problems. Let's talk "Evero."

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      IMO, if Ceedee plays against us, the game probably goes the other way. Same with Tyreek Hill and the Dolphins. Our team just isn't designed to beat teams with two high level receivers like that. But when you look at the league, how many teams really have two guys of that caliber?  There's nothing wrong with defensive adjustments, but sometimes I think a lot of fans want Evero to call a different play like a game on madden, and defensive football just isn't like that. That said, I thought we did a much better job this season against the Cowboys of flipping Jaycee and at least making them work for it, opposed to last season when they literally just lined CeeDee up on the other side of the field every single snap.  For us to just straight up switch to consistent man coverage, or a different zone, or whatever, we likely would consistently need different personnel on the field. Doing it a few times a game is a gamble and can work, but if we consistently run man coverage against the Cowboys, eventually a RB is going to beat a linebacker, or something of that nature with our personnel. Part of the reason Evero likes this scheme is that, while we have our defaults and presets, what we do is very multiple, and you can do a lot of different things pre and post snap. We are a challenging defense to read. But as you said, if guys are getting beat, it doesn't really matter what you call.
