Core 4 No More: The Motherfucking Off-Season Thread

[Wayward DP]

I think he's no longer waiver eligible but i'm not sure.

honestly I kinda hope he isn't

 

[trujaysfan]

Patches can't be much more than $1MM?

Kampf, jarny or Reaves wrapper to be the most obvious.

could see him wanting some sort of bonus structure too

 

[JackBurton]

Dreger using heh offersheet stuff again?

 

[zeke]

Puckpedia has him listed as waivers exempt but i think they'll change it. It's 5 seasons since he signed his elc i don't think anyone can be exempt for longer than that.

 

[zeke]

Ok puckpedia already changed it. He's not waivers exempt.

Knies is the only waivers exempt regular.

Max PAC and Robertson probably means Reavo is done.

I am fine with that

you cute little optimist you

 

[zeke]

Would be cool if Brad pulled the plug on Reavo after 1yr of a 3yr deal but i dunno.

And i dunno that Berube wouldn't want him around.

If Max Pax gets the min and Hakanpaa gets $1.5, sending Timmins down only gets them to $875 over. One of Revo, Dewar or Krok would have to go.

Tricksy move by Treliving.

Wait until after Berube’s sold Robertson on his opportunity here and he’s safely re-signed before bringing in the shitty broken leaderbean that’ll be placed firmly ahead of Robertson and the other young guys on the depth chart and in the lineup.

How do you walk away from a playoff warrior like that tho...

A Swiss Army knife ( in that in can do so many things poorly, including knifing)

One of the things that could actually make this regular season fun and interesting for me is if we had a genuine youth movement.

Robertson, Knies, McMann, Cowan, Holmberg, Baby Nylander, Minten, Steeves…give as many of these guys as much ice-time and opportunity as possible.

Of course, instead of that, we’ll surely get MOAR Pacioretty, Jarnkrok, Kampf, Dewar, Lorentz & Reeves. With one of the kids tagging in for occasional spot duty on the 4th line if and when injuries have given us no other choice.

 

[leafman101]

I don't know that I'd dump Pacioretty in with Krok, Kampf, Dewar, Reaves. Last year was the first year of his career he didn't score at a 30 goal pace. Even in his shit year last year, with a 4% shooting percentage, he scored at a 40 point pace.

Having that guy on the 4th line is more like Spezza.

 

[Slinger 48]

Should put to bed any Pacioretty nonsense

I would hope so.

I didn’t lump those guys together because I think they’re the same, necessarily.

Moreso that they’re all players that don’t excite or interest me at all, as a fan. I couldn’t give two shits about watching to see whether or not we can squeeze another 15-20 goals out of the rotting corpse of Max Pacioretty in a sheltered even-strength role with 2nd unit PP minutes.

Give all that ice-time and opportunity to one of the younger players on my list, please, and see what they can develop into. That’s far more interesting.
