Thread: Better looking Sens 2024-25 roster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TJTwolf</b></div><div>Avs decline. They aren't trading Girard who is under contract for longer for one year of 400k cap saving, even with a first attached, to then have to find a way to sign Chicken Run at the same time as re-signing a plethora of other players. They may have to trade Girard but it won't be a deal like that, probably purely for futures.</div></div>

They don't resign chychrun they flip him to another team that needs defense for a cheaper option, off the top of my head I'm thinking toronto as Ottawa probably doesn't trade within Ontario and leafs have the cap space after moving marner...

They turn Girard into a 1st and possibly minten or or another high pick.

Leaves them 5 mill open to sign walker or drouin or trenin.. whom ever they like and allows landeskog a return.

Saying that Ottawa would never trade chycrun and a 1st for girard

So from what I've heard is that briere is upset that johansen wasn't able to be sent down because of injury, that had not been disclosed by colorado.

Now that isn't necessarily colorados fault, sounds like ryjo is playing up an injury so he doesn't have to play in the ahl..

Anyway I'm hearing philly and Colorado probably aren't going to be friends while their current GMs are in place

Thread: Whats the difference between early Nichushkin and Kakko
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rags21</b></div><div>It’s always been good since he was a teen coming into the league. It’s obviously better than his offense. Maybe above average but not elite, just yet?</div></div>

Well nuke had to redefine his game after his time in Dallas, the reason he's so effective is because of his speed, added with a motor that doesn't stop, being the first guy to the puck and winning puck battles.. his shot isn't very good and his deke move is always the same lol. So paired with other skilled players he's the "hyman" of the line, he's getting better at deflections and is picking up a bunch of assists from mack and rants.. while slamming in pucks from the front of the net

Mostly he's just an effective big bodied puck carrier that doesn't quit on anything
