Othmann won't sit as a scratch. He's gonna keep developing in the OHL. No use in burning his ELC before he's NHL ready

Habs accept

have to think Arizona wants a better package than that. Also, seems like Drury isn't budging on his Georgiev price which is apparently a decent pick and solid prospect

re: SlimTJ100 - jschultz18 is completely right on all counts. I'd love to bring up Othmann right now, Give it time, and you'll get fine wine! The rest of your proposal is a decent effort. If your going to go youth movement drop Chychrun and bring up Lundqvist and have him compete with Jones for 3rd LW. Personally. I favor Lundqvist (jschultz18 is already aware of my bias). That means Tyler Motte at third LW at $1.8-$2M). Evan Rodrigues at 2nd RW for $1.5M provides better value at slightly less cost. If Kravtsov falls on he face (that is my contention) Brodzinski to 4th RW and Sammy to 3rd RW. I like Charlie Lindren as backup netminder too!! You can get him for $80K. Filip is not ready for # 2 C. #3 C is where he belongs with Motte taking 3rd LW of Drouin. Rydahl is certainly and option, but I think bringing back Rooney at 85K for 2 yrs is a better option, Bravo on Reaves. May take a buyout based on the lack of interest I've been getting about moving him for a draft pick. Finally, re-sign Copp at $5.5M for five years. He should provide 6-70 pts playing a full season with the Breadman. Good Job!
