beekay414 Posted January 29, 2021 Author Share Posted January 29, 2021 If McLeod had any hockey skill, he'd be so damn good. His tools are ridiculous. He just has no idea what to do when the puck gets to his stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I really like that 4th line. Grinders. When they score, it'll mostly be good fortune, but that's a line that will make some of their own luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Hayes signed his deal, they all completely roasted the flyers for making that deal. Meanwhile he's a better all around player than Hayes and they are okay with giving Palms that type of deal. I mean, I did **** all over that Hayes deal but I also don't want to give it to Palms so... Hayes at least brings a prime Zajac level of ability to the ice, Palms is a winger version of Adam Henrique. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, and there's the difference lol And honestly, I'm willing to bet that Hayes would live up to his contract better than Palms would. Like you said...if he ends up with a Zajac like finish to his career, wouldn't be surprised at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 So Zajac basically plays fantastic all year with a revolving door of linemates...put him with Palms and Zacha and that happens. I legit would trade Zacha. I'd offer him for Dunn in a heartbeat. I don't even care that I don't have anywhere to put Dunn right now. Seriously, what's the long term plan with Zacha at this point? Is there really any merit to having him in there over Merkley or Kuokkanen or guys like that? I really don't think that there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murray-Vatanen Smith-Severson Kulikov-Subban And, yes, I'm trading Zacha at this point. I'd attach a pick to get Dunn here. Would rather gamble on him than keep forcing Zacha into spots he doesn't deserve to be in. I'd also look into trading Palms before he completely tanks his value.

beekay414 Posted January 29, 2021 Author Share Posted January 29, 2021 Whoever was trying to trade for Letang, I'd offer them Subban at 50% retained for a ham sandwich. I'd rather pay $4.5 million to not have him on the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted January 29, 2021 Author Share Posted January 29, 2021 Wood back to being the frustrating version. He literally cannot keep a simple puck on his stick. Just no skill whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
