eating crow on lawson

I assume the Gs and either Walsh or Boqvist are a wash
That means Holtz our first and one of the others from above for Crouse.
IMO thats too much for him, salary works well but not the assets going back.

The G trade I see as something that could work with tweaks, i think Blackwood may be done in Jersey

I don't see those are a wash at all. Vej has been unreal. Its a first and holtz for crouse and vejmelka, with some redundant sweetners and a cap dump (in my head)

Vejmelka is gonna ruin their tank chances this season, IMO - dude is a very special goalie.

that being said this is a ton of crow to eat. I like Crouse but I wonder how that production translates once he's out of the desert - plus, there's something to be said for him willingly signing a 5 year deal to play in a college arena. I think that it would be a bad look for notoriously loved UFA destination Arizona to bail on a guy like that halfway through the 1st year of a 5 year deal.

It is a ton of crow to eat. But his Evolving-Hockey player card is....very compelling.
