Ottawa having hard time re-signing Shologan, Johnson, Cappicotti...
Cappicotti-Shologan-Turner-Westerman would look great. Do you go all-in with Laurent as well? $600-700k on the DL and then sign cheap import OL?
Titus Ryan!!!
Ah, the good old days where Mike Kelly kept cutting our best receiver but also bringing in new guys who would have two great games and disappear... Otis Amey, Dudley Juice Jr
Even if its 5 @ 7.5 thats only 2.5 million extra each season - basically, Pardy and Clitsome's contracts...
Would love to see
Trouba-Buff
Morrissey-Myers
Enstrom-Kostalek
(Chiarot/Postma)
Trade Ladd - sure Jets could still land a 1st round pick for him... Shop Pavelec, Enstrom and Stuart
Oilers destroyed Justin Schultz, no doubt... but I'd contend that the D core is a bit stronger now - Sekera, Nurse, Klefbom and Jones wouldn't have to carry the load alone
Problem is that Washington would mean a 30th overall pick... that's not much trade bait to start, you'd have to get Bowey in the deal, maybe Barber as well
Okay I might still criticize Ehlers for being a bit of a cherry picker... but he's 19
Our bottom six are already exhausted... this is a little scary
Love the Trouba-Buff pairing
If Buff and Ladd get contracts, they should give 15% to Helle
Brutal call on Little...
Ladd has to be injured - at this rate we'll be able to sign him for three years at four million
I'll stop criticizing Ehlers now...
Sask lives and dies with Durant... if he doesn't get hurt last year, Taman and Chamblin are still there... same goes for Jones - if Durant comes back, he's gold, if his career is over, Jones is probably gone after three years
Wow, how do you pass on DeLeo or Petan and call up Cormier... So weird. Must just be extra bodies.
I think I would try before anything else...
Ehlers-Little-Wheeler
Ladd-Perrault-Armia
Thorburn-Burmistrov-Halischuk
Lipon-Copp-Peluso
But that's still pretty ugly...
