I don't think that we are going to re-sign Vats. Greene will ride off into the sunset. I think Mueller will be around, Butcher too. But those two guys may be it when it comes to who is still here in 2 years. Severson has the contract, obviously, but I still feel like at some point, he's going to be on his way out. I'm interested to see how everything plays out. The Carolina/Fox stuff wouldn't happen until after Carolina is eliminated so it'd still be a while if there's any truth to it. It's only April 15th and I'm already getting impatient lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted April 15, 2019 Author Share Posted April 15, 2019 Our draft ammo. #1 #34 #55 (Nashville) #60 (Boston) #70 (Anaheim) #80 (Dallas) #96 I still can't believe we got #55 and #80 for Boyle and Lovejoy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2 years, if we re-sign Hall, we could be legitimately stacked (also assuming Mac pans out) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 I am hoping the isles do even better in the playoffs and we can work some trade magic to have them take on someone like zajac for the remainder of his contract while we get a good prospect. If they get close enough, they may decide to go for broke after the season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted April 17, 2019 Author Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) Gilles Senn is coming over to the US next year. Officially signed his ELC. Gotta figure he'll be the main man in net for Binghamton. EDIT - Forgot about Evan Cormier. That'll be a fun duo to follow.

If we're not going to be in play for Panarin, Skinner, Eberle or Dzingel, I'm still pounding the table for Miles Wood and a 2nd to Minnesota for Jason Zucker. Had a down year but he's still only 27 and is under contract for a reasonable $5.5 Million until 2022-23. You were pretty on with Zucker. Was almost traded to Calgary, expected to remain out there Per Michael Russo at the athletic Quote While it would seem to be a huge risk to trade one of their fastest players a year removed from scoring a career-high 33 goals and from a team that’s downright pathetic offensively, trading Zucker seems like just a matter of time. Fenton is committed to building through young players like Fiala and Donato, so it would make sense to try to get them on their natural left side full-time. Trading Zucker opens up that spot for achieving the former or pursuing somebody like Anders Lee in free agency. Also, Zucker, for the first time, will submit a 10-team no-trade list July 1, so trading him beforehand allows Fenton to talk to 30 teams as opposed to 20. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 I got a "I'd like to keep Wood" response to that deal on Hockey's Future. Like...they almost had Frolik and a 1st from Calgary for him. They aren't taking McLeod and a 2nd lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, Casey masisak thinks wood is nearly untouchable. Or as likely to be traded as bratt. I don't understand the love affair with wood. Dude is fast. Great. He's not skilled and he is undisciplined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get Zucker for him, there's no ******* way you can say no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They always treat their own pieces as though they are Crosby and give them way too much value 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 It sucks that the Sharks aren't up against it cap wise. I'd throw a lot to pry Timo Meier from them if they were really hurting for cap space. I love that kid's shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I saw a couple of contract projects for Zacha and Butcher. Both 2 years, Zacha 2.1M, Butcher 2.3. I'm fine with either of those numbers. Zacha is probably worth that figure on his defense (particularly his penalty kill) alone. Butcher I'm only sort of lukewarm on as a player, but that's an easily palatable figure for what he does. I will say though, seems like Butcher still has a huge fanbase in the analytics department. I don't know, I'm just not fully seeing it on the ice.
