Yotes retain some salary and take back a contract

I’m higher on Demko and Ratbones than you are. Though if they do retain a decent chunk and take Lois off our hands, that changes things. Very interesting times for sure. I have a feeling it could all fall apart though and we end up seeing all three UFA bolt and we replace them with Khudobin/ Crawford, Schenn/Bogosian and Wallmark/Wennberg. Time will tell.

Still a big believer in Tryamkin? https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdi ... pid=159881 Don't know how this translates to the NHL but
looking pretty good. Is he too comfy there?

I’m not worried. I’d be fine if the UFA walked and we replaced them with cheap depth after all the big names disappear

I'm not worried no matter what happens. If we lose out on OEL + all our UFA's it will feel like the end of the world for some, but I like the prospects of using that money and going fishing for other smaller inexpensive fish (as long as we avoid longer terms).

I've actually accepted the possibility of taking a step back this year as my timeline for this team to flourish is when all our bad contracts are off the table and the next wave of youngsters come in. I can afford more patience as long as this thing is done right. Unfortunately patience is something not afforded to JB and a bad year will likely cost him his job.

Jimmy is incredibly patient, reports indicate he has been working on this trade for weeks and has barely budged.

Again, I disagree with you that a trade like this would set us back...

OEL added to Vancouver immediately places them into contender status with or without Markstrom. This is where everybody wants to play. Van is knocking on the door people...quit cowering in the shadow of indecisiveness.

No he doesn’t. The bottom six is still a disaster and so is the defensive depth.

The kids will start taking jobs as we purge the bloated excess of an expired gameplan.

I meant the owner won't be patient, Jimmy can't afford to have the team take a step back this year.

Again, I didn't say it WILL set us back. Just pointing out the potential of how it could and really just outlining the pros and cons. I've mentioned in a couple of posts why I would be for it as well. So I could go either way on this one, just comes down to the cost.

They have very little in terms of kids that will crack the lineup this coming season.

OMG Doyle you're like Eeyore, dump that crap and pick up some scotch buddy!

This season OJ and Rafferty (if you call him a kid) has a good shot at stepping into the lineup. Hog, Rathbone, Lind not likely but outside chance. If not this season the following season there could be as many as 4-5, of course depending on the fallout of this OEL deal if it happens, but that's too many rookies to slot into your lineup in a season so best hope to start getting at least one or two in this season.

What kids are ready to step in and contribute?

How bout a couple of MacEwen, Hoglander, Lind, Lockwood, Gadjovich, Juolevi, Rathbone, Rafferty...

Or should we not even let them try out?
