Yes, we don't absolutely need Kubalik. It would be nice to have him but everyone should know that "you can't have everything in life"

You can't have Tarasenko, Korpisalo, Pinto, 5 M$ in dead cap and Kubalik. Simple as that

And I don't want to be a debbie downer but MacEwen is going to be on the roster. Dorion signed him to a 3 years contract, for some reason

But anyway, I'd rather have Jarventie as the 1st line C in Belleville than 4th line Winger in Ottawa

Kubliak is a good 3rd liner who can slide up the the 2nd if needed, getting him for next to nothing is tempting!

It would probably be more like a 4th but the Sharks could make a nice profit with him. Not only he'd play for you this season but with good linemates and some PP time, you'd get a much better return at the deadline, teams will pay to get a good secondary scorer or to replace an injured forward.

They do have an open forward slot with Lindblom being waived! How about a 5th and we split the difference! Only because we know how desperate you guys are to clear cap space before the season starts.

Lindblom is waived? Oh really? His game had continued to regress I guess

Then it’s a match made in heaven, use Kubalik this season, sell him at the deadline
