Quoting: Pens3lieve
Agree. I don’t think Hamilton is necessary for this team. Marino has showed he’s more than capable of handling 2nd pair minutes.
Once again, highly unlikely Hörnqvist is waiving to go to Calgary. I don’t think it’s a popular destination. Ex. Kadri blocked a trade there from Toronto then went to Colorado. A trade next year when his full NMC changes to a modified NTC with a 8 or 10 No Team trade list ( I think) would be more possible or pay Seattle to take him. Or a buyout(stick tap to pharrow) is an option.
We don’t need Staal back, and I’d take Blueger 100/100 over Thornton. Marleau I’m not opposed to bringing back at the league minimum, but as strictly depth.
I can't imagine trying to move Horny with that 8 team no trade list.
I mean first it gets larger by all the teams who wouldn't help.
Then all the teams that are tight against the cap.
Then all the teams that don't need a RW.
Then he blocks like everyone else.
Like Kessel did. It will be hard to move him with him restricting those 8 teams.
They should buy him out if they can. I mean at the least they can then send JJ to seattle next year. You remove all three of them after 1 season and hope for a cup push.
It's the one saving grace of JJ contract. There is no protection on it......other than having to listen to Crosby whine about it.
