Might as well make it Doink the Clown this yearObligatory post about wrestling avatars
Evil Matt Borne Doink? Or Doink 2 with Dink?Might as well make it Doink the Clown this year
They'll have e 11.6 million and change, with the ability to gain another 1.5-2 5 depending on how much they would spend on replacing Jeannot and Sheary(in theory). If Hanifin doesn't end up with Tampa, there will be other dmen that could make it to ufa and be available(Peace, Skjei, Walker etc). Either Stamkos takes something in the 5 range or he's gone imo, and then the team can acquire a dman and use the small amount left over as needed to fill bottom 6 spots. If Stamkos walks, they can use the 5 and change on a different ufa forward or forwards as needed to address the middle 6.I just don't think they'll be able to get any solid depth with the amount of big contracts they have now. It's just a revolving door of 4th liners we're trying to put on the 3rd line and even the 2nd line
Not to mention we're still missing a legit top 6 winger and have issues on D.
A contract or two has to go in order to create a full team tbh. Otherwise it's just more of this for a few more years
Sometimes in order to retool, tough decisions need to be made
"DONT! GET! ELIMINATED!"Playoff avatar idea: MXC (Most Extreme Elimination Challenge)
It was a show on Spike TV like 20 years ago where they dubbed over old even older Takeshi's Challenge episodes (think Wipeout).
Tubi: Tubi is the largest free movie and TV streaming service in the US. We are not available in Europe due to changes in EU laws.

Hanafin was a little different because adding him wasn't really about this year. Now that he's off the table, unless something similar is out there, I still think the best move is to either stand pat or trade periphery pieces for assets that can be flipped in the off-season, or next year."Why would we add, we're not making the playoffs"
Now.
"Why didn't JBB go out and sign guys?"
Brilliant. I wish it had been suggested previouslyPlayoff avatar idea: professional wrestling

Do you know what this song is actually about?All the other kids with the pumped up picks better run better run. Cuz we don't have none
I'd like to see Duclair swapped with Hagel. Maximize his offensive capabilities and keep Hagel with Cirelli for chemistry.Hagel - Point - Kucherov
Stamkos - Cirelli - Duclair
Jeanott - Paul - Chaffee
Eyssimont - Glenn
The top two lines at least look like top two lines now.
That could work.I'd like to see Duclair swapped with Hagel. Maximize his offensive capabilities and keep Hagel with Cirelli for chemistry.
Duclair - Point - Kucherov
Hagel - Cirelli - Stamkos
Jeannot - Paul - Eyssimont
Sheary - Glendening - Chaffee
