it's just a matter of whether or not a prospect and 20 positions in the draft ffor a good 4th line goon was paying to much.

Yeah. That's what we're basing it on when we say the trade was bad.

Especially when reports are that klim kostin could have top ten talent.

yall are really concerned about who is going to play 4th line for a team whose biggest obstacle to a 3rd straight Stanley Cup is fatigue

Nobody cares, except calling it a bad trade. But go ahead and recite your narrative of everyone else freaking out when it's PAS writing the paragraphs.

This is a weird FA season where it's just all of us in here hoping our team doesn't sign anyone of the available players.

I think this is a situation where the GM is going to basically be saying "this guy has got to play don't gently caress him around"

Oh yeah, locked up a forward at least which was traditionally considered hitting his prime (26-27 years old) who can play 1st line minutes and has averaged 57pts/82games over the past four seasons.

Good Soldier Svejk posted:

For some reason I thought he was supposed to be a defensive stalwart but it looks like his shot suppression has gotten worse every season so unless he's the second coming of Marty he's going to be like every other tiny guy and fall of a cliff when he hits his late twenties.

Palat is the defensive stalwart you're thinking of, and as a matter of fact MSL was terrible defense-wise too.

I don't think that teej is a good Player to compare to MSL. He's more of a shooter, and I think that he's had one good year, been injured a lot, and the league has basically figured him out.

But $5 million for a 45-55 point guy (of which I think he still is) that turns it up for the playoffs is an objectively fair contract, and in three years it will not be a "buy out" it will be completely forgotten.
