No way on Namestnikov. We're not wasting precious cap on that. The rest is at least reasonable-adjacent.

I’ll be honest - don’t know a lot about his game. Know he was highly touted several years ago. Was just looking for a versatile player around $2m so could tinker with lineup and look at ROR on wing with RT

Interesting for Philly

Why on Earth would we want ROR and RobTom on the same line? That makes no sense at all.

Because they are both super smart. If put Tarasenko or maybe Perron with them could be one of best lines in league. Just wanted to see it. Armstrong mentioned playing them together in an interview awhile back and have just been intrigued by. Realize prob won’t do but again just wanted see.

It's a wretched idea to 1) move Thomas to wing & 2) to put our two primary set up men on the same line. They barely even play them on the PP unit.

Again - the idea was the GM’s of the team and he said ROR at wing and Thomas at center. Imagine O’Reilly would be taking most faceoffs tho.

Moving ROR to the wing would be 10x worse than moving Thomas there. Chief is not doing anything like that. Obviously.

I really like that Flyers deal. Maybe they want a hair more but I think this is a good idea
