Other than bringing Kane back...every offseason move SY made came up short. Compare that to Trajan Langdon and the Pistons. He brought in Beasley, Hardaway jr and Tobias Harris and all three of them contributed mightily to the team's record improvement. Huge offseason for SY...he needs to make some moves that are more than just stop gaps

Thought they might backslide a bit this year...and they did. Only real bright spots were the emergence of Kapser, Johansson and Edvinsson (lead the team in +/-). They desperately need a top LW to pair with Larkin and Raymond. Improving the D would be nice...but I don't know that they can with the current number of guys under contract

Doubt we can afford to add Forsberg. O'Reilly would be cheaper low hanging fruit in terms of $$$ and the assets needed to get him

Nashville is interesting...they could be looking at a full on rebuild. A guy like Ryan O'Reilley might be worth inquiring about as a top six F with some size and scoring. Two years left with a 4.5 mil cap hit

I think that's a bit much

Cossa has been trending down since the deadline when they went out and got Mrazek...maybe he's bummed at being blocked for a year.

Mize gives up a HR...what a bum

Good stuff from Doc Rivers

He might be...

no...1C's don't hit the market very often..but that doesn't make Larkin any more attractive.

That and Larkin and Raymond coming back from Four Nations a step slower. We may need to look elsewhere for a 1C. Larkin has the talent..but he lacks the durability you want from the guy ostensibly pulling the wagon

They both contributed a lot tonight...I think physically Stew was a better match up on KAT in the paint...and I think he got in his head by bodying him one on one.

He's definitely missing that high gear...Raymond appears a step behind also.

Old line CCHA guy from my college days...was disappointed when my BGSU Falcons didn't follow Western and Miami into the NCHC

That was a playoff atmosphere...

Quit watching in the 2nd period...Pistons are so much more entertaining this year

He probably wouldn't..but he needs to be open to the concept

Should have signed Moniak when they had the chance

6-3, 230lbs and 20+ goal scorer who's 22? Yep..1st and a 3rd would be cheap

Toronto is intriguing...they have Marner and Tavares as UFA'S and Matthew Kniess as an RFA. Offer sheets are generally frowned upon...but I might load up a poison pill to go after Kniess. He's young and has the size we lack

Next!

Nikolai Ehlers would be a nice FA if the Jets don't sign him

Bring back Kane. Buy out Tarasenko. Obtain a top line wing to go with 71 and 23. Cat, Kasper and Kane are your second line. Copp, Compher and Ras is your checking line..or 3rd line if you must. Elmer, Danielson, Mazur and Lombardi can comprise the 3rd line with an extra fwd. In a perfect world, Lombardi dazzles everyone and earns time on the top line The defense is seemingly locked in for next year. Be nice if ASP forced Holl onto the healthy scratch list

Tork!!!
