TOR closing in on forward Michael Pezzetta, ex of MTL.TRUCULENCE
Kings are going for it next year.
There will be nothing left for the Queefs but table scraps lol
Well they signed Perry so they’re about to lose to a team from the East in the finals no? lol

Problem with that is both Nylander and Matthews are both the primary shooters of the line. And both JT and Knies are the front of net guys. Whoever will be on the alternate wings just needs to be a half decent setup guy.[/quote]Yeah, they need a balanced top 9, so moving Nylander to 1RW doesn’t make a ton of sense there.
Almost wondering if Nick Robertson stays now, plays with Roy on the 3rd line.[/quote]
I guest he was qualified then.

I just haven’t liked JT/88 together most of the time. They’ve outscored the scary stats but generally speaking they’ve been buried in possession. 88 and 34 have been dynamite together and I like JT playing with a couple of big fast wingers …Knies and McMann?
JT’s resume was built from playing with big grindy wingers like Okposo and Moulson.

I won’t even pretend to know what the aim is, truly curious to see what the re-shaping will be.
A more balanced forward group is the target, it won’t look as special, but it will be more stable on the back end is my guess.
I think inherently I’d question Domi’s ability to hold down a top-6 job all season. This said, I’m not sure what credentials Maccelli brings to the table to get that promotion into a top-6 role either.
Ya, Tanev’s a good candidate ..and he “might” come at a team friendly number if he’s zero’d in on playing with his brother.
If Ehlers won’t take a good number to come here then ya, I think you just zero in a good middle/bottom six types and you can go with a roster like yours.
Although I’m staying persistent on my take that 88 should be with 34.
