Big dude who skates well. Fills that Kulikov spot once we trade him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merrill has been really good this year and makes even less I don't think it has any bearing on the Kulikov market tbqh. Merrill doesn't have Kulikov's track record and NHL GMs rarely forget the past lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Dell and a few others shuffled around early but waivers has practically died since. If mete doesn't get claimed, I 100% think that's the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they aren't assets that palms was, but still, no sense in playing them for one game before the deadline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just didn't have him travel to Buffalo once Fitzy got to including him in the Palms trade and Trav notified him he'd waive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Fitz isn't getting what he wants for Kulikov or Kulikov doesn't want to sit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I had a thought on the bolded for sure, and Murray makes a ton of sense as a guy to re-sign, so I could understand why he's not going anywhere (he makes far more sense than Kulikov, at any rate) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Saint Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 You guys should pick up Mete and give him a trial run. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sense to park them both just for a game to potentially protect an asset. But we still have a couple of hours. I haven't heard anything to the contrary though. With Vats on waivers, don't think he can play today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to, but I don't think that Beekay is wrong...I think that there's probably some sort of unwritten rule between GMs this year that is leaving most guys unclaimed. Maybe there's a premade arrangement before a guy gets claimed so far this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted April 11, 2021 Author Share Posted April 11, 2021 Why do people keep saying we don't have a retention slot? I thought you were able to retain on 3 players? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
