I mean if you don’t want to resign Texier, you can just slide him over to Edmonton… I don’t mind.. I want him anyway!

Would think that they would just run with Merzlikins, and Tarasov again. No need to boot Tarasov out of the lineup!

I'd be stoked about landing Levshunov, Reinhart, and Rossi. But the changes I'd make:

1) Chinakhov + Jenner > Rossi + Gustavsson, so the picks are a nonstarter, and may need to flip sides to make the currently-unavailable Jenner available.

2) If you're adding Gustavsson, an Elvis buyout or trade would be necessary. He's not necessarily better than Gus or Tarasov, but he's definitely not playing 3rd-fiddle.

3) You should absolutely re-sign Texier, just throw him on the 4th line instead of TFW.

Overall, I'm not a fan of the leadership vacuum, but this team is definitely better than last year's IMO.

yeah places that are clearly on the top of Reinhart's signing list.... columbus.

CBJ takes Lindstrom in the draft.

They aren't gong to waste time pretending a 5'9 guy is a 2C in their future.

Tampa Bay declines. Can't afford that cap hit.

Retain 1/2 TB does that. Otherwise easy pass

Retaining half on Provorov is a foregone conclusion in my mind. Columbus absolutely will retain, the return doesn't need to change here.

I would think Minnesota easily accepts this
