<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jesus</b></div><div>C'mon man he's 33 years old, he's 5' 11", he's less than 190 lbs and his game is to go to the net and be physical. We'd be lucky to get another 2 years out of him. Look at what's happened to physical guys like Andrew Ladd and Wayne Simmonds as they get into their 30s and those guys are much bigger than Hornqvist. He's already missing a lot of time due to injuries now and its only going to get worse as he ages. I love Hornqvist and don't think we would've won those 2 cups without him but his body is going to give up on him sooner rather than later. The fact he's doing good this year is all the more reason to sell high on him as some veteran leadership and a guy who has stanley cup experience. He'll be difficult to replace with his energy and locker room presence but you don't want him to become the teams first buyout either</div></div>

Dont get me wrong, if we can trade him for a pretty good return im all for it. I love the guy and hes one of my fav players but you are right, guys like him do fall off into their 30s. I was talking more about if he would be traded by GMJR or not. Also, if JJ is not getting bought out, I find it very hard to believe this team will ever buy out anyone lol

What'd you guys think of this team?</div></div>

Agree with everything except the fact that hornqvist will be dumped as a salary dump. he has a NTC and has been performing pretty well compared to last season. I think you can write off last season as just a wack season for a lot of our players from Horny to Malkin to Murray etc. Imo Bjugstad will likely be traded if he shows nothing after he returns from injury.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PensGM2019</b></div><div>Couple of things:

Jake and Zucker won't both play with Sid. One of them will for sure play with Geno and I'm guessing Jake since that line was out of this world pre injury to Jake.
Jarry will laugh at $1.25M a year. You can't do that to him, especially after keeping him in minors an extra year and post the numbers he has put up this season. Guy could legit be a Veznia candidate if he started more games (which he should be).
I think one of Poulin or Leagere could be here next year but they won't start with Geno. Probably more a ZAR spot if they start in the NHL</div></div>

Murray hate is unreal with this fanbase. He has posted better numbers than Jarry recently and yet Jarry should still be starting more games? The every other game model is helping both goalies play at their best so Im not sure why you think Jarry should be playing more games so confidently. Also, do you mean start Poulin or Legere where ZAR is currently slotted in the lineup? A 4th line checking role? Way to find a way to ruin a prospects potential. You dont start your prospects playing 4th line, especially guys like Poulin and legere bruh. Also if Malkin and Rust are clicking then I dont see why you cant play guentzal and zucker with crosby. Nothing wrong with that, it seems like a situation if one line goes cold you can flip guentzal to the other line to keep it going and then do it again if he gets cold there.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dennisb</b></div><div>Rodrigues-Blueger-Tanev is a scary 4th line. They can check and they can score.

I think they will try to play Marleau with Malkin first. Simon is useful only with Crosby. No room for him now I think.

And Marleau can improve situation with the face-offs. They are both skillfull players who can take advantage of the skillet and style of play I hope :halo</div></div>

You are right about Simon, I think Simon and Sheary will battle it out for the spot next to Sid. ZAR is great defensively and should remain part of the blueger line i think unless that line with rodrigues shows something spectacular. I was thinking about Marleau on the second line but lets see. i think both Rodrigues and marleau both could fit on either or as role players.
