Please, no Dano. Been there, done that.

Danault is just an older version of Evans. If he's in your top 6 your team is garbage.

 

[Habspatrol]

That's absurd. Danault's considerably better than Evans and is a bona fide 2C.

Placeholder for two years. Would take all the potential PK pressure off 14 and resolve LH draws by replacing Dvorak. It’s not terrible.

Different role. Dans la bonne chaise.

 

[Krustchev]

HuGo have been clear: not interested in place holders. That’s why I knew they had no intrerest in Granlund (and his size). Anyway, there’s a better chance that Ivan Demidov wins the Selke Trophy next season than Dano being repatriated by HuGo.

 

[lecoqsportif]

I agree it’s 99% unlikely.

But I think 14 is exposed right now, and they will address in some way before training camp. He has his most productive year will lower TOI, MSL needs someone he can trust on the PK (hopefully left handed.)

Holland may be desperate to do something stupid. Dan o would be sweet.

That's absurd. Danault's considerably better than Evans and is a bona fide 2C.

Evans had 13 goals last year to Danault's 8. Neither one of them are top 6 forwards on a credible team. They are plugs. They block shots. They kill penalties. Dat's h'it, dat's h'all.

Matheson’s value as Plan B just skyrocketed..

You’re forgetting something very important: he’s still Mike Matheson.

Still need Reinbacher to make the team out of camp, or soon thereafter.

It’s always about supply & demand…

Doesn't matter. You dont need to be the best, merely the best available.

Depending on the cost, he should be a great stop gap 2C for us.

Until we trade for Crosby. Then Kadri can center the 3rd line.
