Now who will be running the defense?

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Cheap depth move, I'll take it:

Good Luck Zacha, appreciate your services best wishes!

I have a feeling we'll miss out on Jonny G, i am fan to get him after this slow offseason but of course at a reasonable price. Don't overpay!



I know i'm in the minority, but I would like to pry Kaako from NYR! lol

 

[CalamityX11]

If Jonny G falls through, go hard and trade Bratt/pkg to CBJ for Laine

 

[CalamityX11]

We extended qualifying offer so his rights are ours. Could be he's waiting to see if someone will offersheet him in which case we match and sign him. And if not then he probably signs whatever offer we have.

Example let's say we offer him $7 over 8 and someone comes in with an offer sheet of $9 over 7, well the other team essentially just negotiated a pay raise for him. That's my guess.

that's sounds right.... agent probably told him to wait and compare to the current deals being made.......

cheeky

Palat is another guy we could get

 

[CalamityX11]

definitely feels like we're not Jonny's preferred spot..... don't ante up the money any further... work on other deals and/or agents.

This Johnny G race is getting ridic... i'm pretty sure we're not his preferred choice and i rather we not buy it... if he doesn't want it, no way go higher than $10M a yr IMO.... no way...

rather trade for Laine

 

[CalamityX11]

Wtf Laine is a RFA? Just offer his ass more than cbj can afford

 

[CalamityX11]

Lmao Johnny g bailed on us, nyi n phi for columbus?????? Lmaooooo


Offer the state of NJ to Laine!!!

 

[Spam only]

But if we offor him enough, we could be losing between 2 first a second and a 3rd to 4 first round picks
i kinda like the idea of sending an offer sheet to Kaapo Kakko just for shits and giggles
if we stay under 4 mil per it’ll only cost us a second, I get he’s not jg or laine

 

[Nasty_Magician]

All I know is if we truly tried landing him and failed it's a fire able offense. We had the advantage of being his home state, we could outbid the other teams involved and we have a rising star at center. Everything was lined up for us so maybe we truly didn't want him? I dunno, weird scenario that played out.

On to Palat.

 

[Spam only]

he took less to go to Columbus
dont think we coulda outbid them

 

[CalamityX11]

We got Palat!

 

[CalamityX11]

Yea, overall I'm not happy with this off-season, truly, however not sure I could fault Fitz here with Johnny.. the freaking guy chose Columbus n less $ over us n others... its a complete mind fuck.

Still want to snatch Kaako lol

Laine would be great
