He's older than Guentzel, certainly, but he's been an elite tier forward for the longest time and they tend to age better
Stamkos with Pettersson could be absolute money
It wouldn't surprise me, but I can very easily see him hitting UFA. Toronto connection or not, Dallas is the better built team and they couldn't get a deal done.
Doesn't hurt for him to at least hit July 1st and then weigh his options.
Maybe, maybe not, but I'm sticking to my long held stance of not liking giving big money and term that takes guys into their later 30's.
I understand why Guentzel appeals to people, I just don't see it the same way.
Maybe not, but nothing ventured, nothing gained. I do think we could land him, it just might mean the forward we bring in for Pettersson isn't as sexy an option.
I'm not keen on Toffoli for similar reasons, I like him but I question his speed. I'd rather bring in a forward who skates better.
I think Marsh will cost too much, but he'd be intriguing on a shorter term deal as a guy who can probably still produce.
I like Stephenson best, I think he'd be a great playmaking center or winger for either the Pettersson or Miller line.
Probably Toronto, which is fine
They traded for Tanev too but I won't be surprised if he hits UFA, I'd rather look for someone younger than Tanev on the right side though
Maybe, they'll have to jockey with every other team that wants D though too
I like to think so, regardless of which other teams are after the D that will hit the market I think we'll have a good chance at landing some players
We just had a very impressive season, I do think players will be intrigued if Vancouver offers fair deals, which I reckon we will
I don't think he'll be back, and as much as I like him I'm fine with that tbh
His not signing with a better team in Dallas is a good indicator that there's a solid chance he hits UFA imo
The Treliving familiarity is a bit of a wildcard, particularly if they're willing to do something ridiculous with a contract
