Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
I agree he has no value to other GMs and they’d be lucky to get a late pick for him. No way they’ll get a third. He is really over valued by some posters here. The best they might be able to do is flip him for another player that another GM has given up on, or a thrown in as part of a multiplayer deal.

Yup. I see more potential than most there Mick but hes more or less a longshot to make an nhl roster at this point.Cherry Picker wrote: ↑Sat Aug 17, 2019 7:29 am I agree he has no value to other GMs and they’d be lucky to get a late pick for him.

Probably because he's an affordable gamble.
Low risk with a higher potential ceiling

He can score well in Utica and won’t count against the cap. If there are too many injuries he could be called up.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
Depends. The current GM has spent a 3rd on Andrei Pedan, 2nds on Baertschi and Vey and thrown other 2nds into deals when he probably didn’t need to. It depends on how the acquiring GM sees the prospective player in terms of asset valueMadcombinepilot wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2019 9:35 am.. but it ain't worth no 3rd.micky107 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 17, 2019 11:03 amThat in itself is worth more than a 7th.Cherry Picker wrote: ↑Sat Aug 17, 2019 9:27 amHe can score well in Utica and won’t count against the cap.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
It all depends on if Gobby does what he said he was going to do this off-season. He has all the tools to become a consistent 20 goal winger, and that is worth a lot. -IF- he manages to figure out the game at the NHL level, and works on his defense, I can easily see him being a solid scoring 3rd liner with 2nd line fill-in potential. He was on a 35 point pace last season. If he takes a step forward, he could easily be a 40 point guy and earn a $2-3 million contract in a year or 2, and be a key part of our depth. Now, he easily could also be a 3rd liner in the KHL making $150,000 a year too.

He hasnt been tossing in on deals like earlier in his residency. Maybe it was lindens influence?Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2019 9:43 amDepends.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)
I think pedan was a good gamble at the cost of a 3rd, Benning overpaid to get willie and Trevor their Medicine Hat boy. One thing Benning is willing to do is give the coaches some say in personnel, hence the overpaying for beagle in free agency last year.Uncle dans leg wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2019 1:19 pmHe hasnt been tossing in on deals like earlier in his residency.

Benning and Green are looking like they're doing one hell of alot better than just coexisting like some.Richardstroker69 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 18, 2019 1:36 pmI think pedan was a good gamble at the cost of a 3rd, Benning overpaid to get willie and Trevor their Medicine Hat boy.

For me, the more they see eye to eye, the better chance the team has of succeeding.
Again, still some mopping up. All good in regards to direction.........................................so it would seem.
