the obsession with a token net-front guy drives me crazy. having one guy whos really good at that is far worse than having your whole team working together to crash the net, look for tips, and tap in rebounds. that job shouldnt be done by just one player.
When its a missing piece on a power play, and everything else is there, then its worth looking at adding.
Also, its not really a substitute for crashing the net, playing rebounds, etc. Every team should be doing that.
Its a compliment to it.

If you are patient, Pavelski could be available around the TDL. We are not a PO team right now and I doubt this will change since we are basically the same team as last year…playing the same way as last year.
Pavelski would be great as UFA signing.
I was really naming him (and JvR, Hornqvist, etc) as the type of player I was talking about.

Copp is going to cost a top prospect
Probably. Wouldn't make sense for Devils to trade for rental...even if they are close to playoff bubble.
Maybe as UFA in off-season.
I trying to think of more under-the-radar alternative.

For our best net front tippers. It’s Wilson and oshie. It’s incredible how they do that. Also are you giving us Nico
Oshie too. Should have included him with the Pevelski, JvR, Hornqvist. Wanna find an Oshie-lite.

He's on our team right now...DAWSON MERCER
Well, of course. Guys like McDavid, MacKinnon, Matthews and Mercer can do it all...
