Core 4 No More: The Motherfucking Off-Season Thread

So Tre kinda looking good here. Targets the best defensive d avail, locks up lilly, wants zadorov (good player) but not at an inflated salary, looking at Roy (biggest value play avail).

Lol fuck I think presto and I share an algo.

Roy the American may have no interest playing here. I get it.

I had this terrible dream where this guy was in the lineup for a 7th game in a playoff series and was one the ice for the game deciding goal in the 3rd period.

Was fucking terrible.

Forgot he was on the ice. Wasn’t it off hisnshitty wrist shot too.

Good point

So not a nightmare offseason but underwhelming considering they could have signed Tanev + a higher tier guy. Balance sheet gonna continue being clean. The Tanev deal isn't a big deal.

Is it a deal at all?

 

[Preston]

So Brossoit or Stolarz still to come. + A depth puck moving d.

And maybe a depth forward or two if the depth d is cheap enough.

 

[mbow30]

I see the logic. Puck mover and clearly defined role running pp2 (maybe even pp1). But I just wish they'd aim higher. I don't think he'll be that cheap.

I think it’s fair to say Tre likes d




Who can move the puck effectively

Let’s order a skinner margarita for $1m.

 

[axlsalinger]

lower expectations, then sign one of Montour or Skjei out of the motherfucking blue

Stamkos.

There’d be something gross to me about letting him crawl back to us at the age of 34, only after he emphatically rejected us in his prime and then got rejected by Tampa this time around.

Especially since he wants real money.

 

[mbow30]

I’m on board with skinner. I guess the question there is if he wants another pay day or to win.

With him it may be the former - his dad was Paul Marner before Paul Marner was Paul Marner (maybe even worse)

You’d think that after banking $50M over the past five seasons with Buffalo and with them paying him an additional $15M over the next several years to not play for them, that Skinner’s priority would be going to a good team instead of searching for the biggest payday.

Dom trying hard to get some LOF respect

Lilly staying on a great deal, props to Bundy so far. Tanev, Domi contract and Lilly deal are all solid moves. Let's see what else happens

Yeah but like why not aim for 100

The dumbest folks on twitter are quite upset by this. Probably a bullish indicator.
