Sujet: Why Parise
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rokk</b></div><div>Lou's not going to roll with the kids in a win now situation, be thankful Dobson and Wahlstrom got playing time. If you want to see the kids play wait until the rebuild in a couple years. I'm not saying they don't deserve a chance! Lou's just not willing to take the risk of them not panning out this season, he's trying to win the cup. When they're ready they'll be ready.

As far as enough injury depth, you mean like Komarov on the first line?</div></div>

Are we really in a "win now" situation? Barzal is 24, Beauvillier is 24, Wahlstrom is 21, Brock is 29, Pageau is 28, Pelech is 27, Pulock 26. Sorokin is also 26.

We have a year or two with these guys, so winning THIS YEAR isn't necessarily the goal. Wahlstrom isn't going to put up a 30 point season, anyway. I think he's more then capable of being a top-6 producer NOW, maybe moreso than Parise. Panik is a fine third guy; if we plan on throwing him away for a pick or something, I'd like to see Parise in his place. If we keep him, I don't see any real reason to sign Parise imo.

Sujet: New York Islanders signed AJ Greer (1 Year / $700,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Orr28</b></div><div>You think they'd alternate Greer and Ross the Boss? And surely this ends speculation that Martin will be brought back.</div></div>

Martin can still easily come back. He's a fantastic locker room guy, although I agree that a Greer/Boss alternating combo would be better. Give Greer a chance to prove himself and replace Martin on the best fourth line in the league. If Martin does come back (on a cheap deal), I suspect Komarov is gone for cap and the fourth line remains intact with Johnston and Greer as scratches. I'd rather play Greer over MDC any day, although realistically we should have Bellows/Wahlstrom or maybe even give Holmstrom a quick shot this year where MDC would play, and get rid of MDC.

Sujet: (CGY / NYI) - Hamonic for 2018 1st, 2nd round picks
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Daoloth</b></div><div>Islanders took a step forward trading for Eberle only to take 2 steps back dealing Hamonic. They needed to at least get Ferland who had 15 goals if they were going to ship him to flames. Bad move by Islanders for a team who missed post season by 1 or 2 points depending on if had a tie breaker or not. Shipping a guy who has an upside with a contract under 4M cheaper than Russell, Muzzin, Martinez, among many others wasn't good for NYI. Flames need to win now going with Mike Smith or whoever in net, now they have a nice top 4 D with Doogie Hamilton who always liked from Boston days, TJ Brodie another guy like, then the big name Giordana or however spell his name with Hamonic rounding them out. Lucky for Islanders they at least have Mayfield along with Pullock or whatever whoa re right shots to play behind Boychuk. Not happy about this deal, hoped they could get Trouba from Jets if were shipping a right shot D :)... Now if they don't sign Shattenkirk or Cody Franson their D will probably not be as stellar missing post season by 5-10 points. At least Garth Snow is still himself, backing from his desire for 2 first round picks for Hamnoic.

I think much of this was motivated by him wanting to be traded closer to Winnipeg for family reasons. Kings cry about stuff instead of making deals for a right shot D-man... They could have signed Cody Franson, kept Schenn for a total of 4.25M or so. Either way teams in the West are getting better while the Kings are lucky Vancouver is there to keep them from finishing last :). I had wanted Vegas to take Ferland but he was protected. Islanders will probably botch these draft picks anyways knowing them :). Must be tough for their hardcore fans anytime they seem to move forward they spring backwards ;).</div></div>

Dobson, Bolduc and not having Hamonic make me very happy. :)
