I Miss Jim Nill

Berggren & Johansson won't get that much and Veleno will be in the lineup or he's traded.

Also: Johansson should take the 2nd pair RD spot or we sign a TRUE top 4RD. Hakaanpää is just another body that plays too high in the lineup then he should.

Columbus says no just because we can't retain 2.7 for 3 years. It's just to much deadcap for to long. That the buyout would only be more expensive for one year. Bring the retainment down and we can talk.

A rental and a LhD don't interest us as part of a Zegras trade. We'd want either Nate Danielson or Axel Sandin Pellikka plus the first, and I don't see Stevie Y doing that. (He's not really a trader, is he?)

Yeah, I’m prob a tad high on both those kids.

I just like Hakanpaa next to Edvinsson. Big, physical, defensive defenseman would be ideal for the rookie.

Not to mention that ASP being sub-6ft probably takes him off of Verbeek’s list, and Danielson has a lot to prove still. I just don’t see a Zegras trade to DET
