<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CCM46</b></div><div>And if prorated cap you can get him on a multi year type deal I think it would be worth the risk......... Also if were in a position come near the deadline and he hasn't signed anywhere yet I'd reach to PK88 and see if he'd sign a one year deal to win one last cup and put him with Geno and bump Smith down a line. Could also make a trade with Ari to bring back Zucker either I'd be okay with tbh</div></div>

That could work. Honestly at this point he'll probably just take league min anywhere I'd imagine. But that's just a guess. Either way - I agree, I think he'd be worth the risk of throwing a low amount at him.

If Kane comes in for like league min I'd have no issues. I know a lot of people don't like that idea - another old guy lol. But I think it'd be worth it as well. I'd gladly take Zucker back at the deadline as well - not sure how they would get him under the cap though.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CCM46</b></div><div>So I just read about it after looking..... This seems to be a similar surgery that my best bro had roughly around the same age that Puljujarvi is now. He says he wishes he would've done this years earlier cause he can actually move without pain (he played hockey not at NHL but still skating is skating at the end of the day).

Again as you said not sure how it would affect the contract negotiations given he won't even be skating for 4 months and then it'll be another month or two before being game ready, but 25 years old and with our prospect situation still think it would help diminish the overall high risk as when he is playing who would he be blocking from coming up?</div></div>

Interesting. Yeah I feel like sometimes getting a surgery like this to fix a nagging injury actually has the player come back even better. Especially at his younger age. I was looking at Puljujarvi for a bit but got nervous when I saw he had surgery. But the more I think about it it's probably not that big of a deal.

And I agree. It's not like he's some old guy that would be blocking some great prospects. Just like Nylander/Poulin/Puustinen. I don't want to say it's no risk - because anybody coming off surgery has some risk. But I can't really think of a reason not to do it. I guess the actual worst case scenario is you can just bury him in the minors - which doesn't seem that bad. But best case is a serviceable 25 year old who does the little things well and can play up and down the lineup. He scored at a 42 point pace in 20-22 when he played with McDavid - not too bad for a good forechecker and great defender. Maybe give him a shot in the top 6 like you said which would move Rust down and improve the depth

Sujet: Daily Nylander move
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CCM46</b></div><div>its more so the carter for Robinson that makes it funny..... Robertson the Pens can get for multiple years to be part of their next wave, and Nylander accomplishes the win now so first im okay giving up I just think the return is very light for Nylander</div></div>

No I hear you, I totally see that for the pens helping them more to contend this year maybe Robertson makes a splash this year also but both players are known well by dubas and help out like you said but I truly think Toronto benefits too and the other thing Nylander will be moved if he doesn't sign no matter what and I think this return might seem light I think any team will be hard pressed to help Toronto knowing they could let Nylander walk to FA so working with dubas and maybe taking what he is willing to move becomes the best option.
