we have a very similar situation and TB has the no state tax advantage 

 

I want Guentzel just as much as the next guy but TB is a really heavy weight to compete with

I mean, Florida would be a great place to live were it not for all the people who live there.

Stamkos

JG

Marchessault 

Reinhardt 

Toff 

Stephenson 

- all going to market likely 

Out of that group I would want Stephenson and Stamkos assuming Guentzel isn’t available.

TB just traded for RFA JJ moser who was ARZ no.1 d man past 2 yrs 

I doubt jj signs at less than 4 mill 

So then that’s 12.5 mill to spend on 6 players 

they cannot afford to throw 9 or 10 mill at someone - unless they have sone trick up their sleeve 

 

 

we have 19 Nhlers signed only big spot to fill is a forward 

we could easily throw 11 mill at someone and still fill out our roster

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.

I just dont think Management will want to commit that much money to the right side of our defence. We will see though!

 

JM will definitely depend on term.

 

things are gonna happen sooooooon!

a smallish one dimensional forward…  yeah call us when you want to retain 50% to move him out. 


You haven’t seen him play much and it shows.

how are we in a very similar situation? they need sign minimum 7 and we need sign 4 for max roster? but technically we just need 1 forward 1d and a backup goalie

Nope I haven’t the he had success with the pens . 

 But I hope I don’t see a 29yo tiny offensive forward that’ hasn’t played a complete season in 5 years. 
the rumours of 9 mill is a no thanks especially for a guy who’s been sheltered with Crosby malkins his career.

 

hope the canes keep him.

All of this. Vancouver already has an albatross contract with Petey and will have a bigger one when Hughes is up for a new contract. I can't see them giving Guentzel $9M and especially not for seven years. Somebody will pay him, I just hope it isn't Vancouver.
