The Fucking Season Thread - Redemption Tour '22

[LeafOfFaith]

Cool, so we can add...nobody. : )

We could move literally any player to make room if we need it, and most likely they'd go as part of any trade to even up money.

Well we picked up Carter Hutton for future considerations. Already cleared and will go to the AHL.

 

[mbow30]

I think He was on a one way, so this is balancing out the $$.

 

[mbow30]

Or maybe we go hutch - Hutton in the playoffs

Yep there is more to the story. The trade that preceded it.

Balancing out how? They already lost the other two guys, so this is extra money going out for them.

They need to pay Ritchie 3.3m next year.

Instead of retention on mimsy we just pay for someone to play for that org.

Leave it to Bettman to declare that as cap circumvention or something and ding us ... but it's phoenix so it'll be allowed.

Muzzin is going to miss the playoffs again, isn't he? LTIR him the rest of the year.

 

[zeke]

somebody else make the gamethread.

 

[Preston]

Jer?

 

[LeafGm]

We play Columbus tonight? Really?

Two straight nights of the ghosts of playoff series past.

 

[Hoss]

Sportsnet app also has to send out a tweet or update that today is the David Ayres anniversary. Fun times.

Guh

he's been brittle before and getting older doesn't help that. it was always going to be a risk pinning your defence's success on older guys like Brodie and Muzz.

but maybe we can pull a Tampa and use his cap space to get an extra guy at the deadline, then bring him back in for the playoffs.

 

[Hoss]

I'm glad (in a small way) that this has happened now with 4 weeks remaining until the deadline. Muzzin's injuries in the first round provides no time for adjustments.
At least now, you can see exactly what you have... you can learn to play without Muzz and if he comes back... then you have a third pair ready to go and you've filled the gap with a player or Sandin and Lill step up even more. Holl as the 7th D or Holl redeems himself.

Whatever happens, in the long run I think it is a better situation for this to take place now despite the gong show of it happening after the deadline and or during the playoffs.
