still **** lol

Both Tanev and Lehner will sign elsewhere, likely with contenders, unless you overpay. You are likely underpaying both of them with those contracts and definitely giving them too little term for them to even be interested.

Even if we get the #2 overall pick, I see Yzerman taking Tim Stutzle. Not interested in a 30 year old Chris Tanev the guy has to many health issues. And reportedly Robin Lehner wants close to 7 x 6.5 on his next deal. Doubt Yzerman has any interest in acquiring a long term goalie.

The only team who can afford a toxic contract is Ottawa

Yeah still not making the playoffs, but wouldn’t be historically bad like this year lol

If we could get Lehner to sign like a 2-3 x 7, that’d be perfect. I could see Yzerman going after Tanev but who knows
As far as the draft pick goes, i honestly like stutzle’s game better than byfield, but they do have a lot of wingers already and stutzle is a primary winger.

They got good gm tho
