Andersson has been crushing it! Definitely standing out offensively and defensively and from what I've heard Valimaki is even better. Going to be a good looking group next year.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Johnny is no playoff hockey contributor. We should trade him and quit pretending this team has any chance to go far in the playoffs in their current form.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I'm just going to enjoy it 1 game at a time if that's alright with you.
I agree Johnny's been below average come playoff time, but who can you trade him for that will make up for his production and cap hit?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Trade him for picks if we can. We currently have a 1st round, 16th overall and a 2nd round 49th overall which is OK considering we are in the playoffs. Not sure how deep this years draft is after #1 and #2.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Otherwise, just a quick look at 2020 UFA's. Taylor Hall, Carl Soderburg, Tyler Toffli would fit right in. In 2019/20 Johnny had 18g and 40a so he's not irreplaceable with those production numbers.
We have tons of cap space for 2021 so lots of options

Getting picks for Johnny would be good if they're top 5 and ready to jump into the lineup, otherwise you're admitting that your window to win now is gone and just waiting for the draft picks to pan out.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Soderberg is going to be 35 and Toffoli is a decent complimentary player and will probably be asking for at least $5M on the open market. If you can get Taylor Hall, that would be great, but he will likely cost $9M+ as a UFA and I can guarantee you will see the same deficiencies in his game as you would Johnny's. It will probably be more magnified since he'll be the highest paid player on the team by a good margin. I really hope Treliving has learned his lesson on chasing UFAs.
You still need that cap space to round out your defense. As you can see from the Oilers and Leafs early exit, you can't just have a top-heavy lineup without a decent defensive group to keep the pucks out of the net.
All I'm saying is before suggesting we trade Johnny in the start of the playoffs after only 1 game, let's see what he brings the rest of the way. He's on a very friendly contract for the next two years, so there's no rush in running him out of town.

When Tkachuk left the second time was it still from being bagged? I didn't see anything leading up to that one...

f*ck off, Perry has such a punchable face.
How many years left on gio contract?
That was NOT a kicking motion... he was in the middle of being taken down!

You spelled Gaudreau wrong. Hopefully the trade hm, sign Hall rumours are correct.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
(Gaudreau fan until playoffs hit) But rumours that he won't re-sign mean we need to get something of value and not pull an Iginla etc

Although I don't think it was intentional I can see where the ref is coming from because he was looking at it. But come on, he was being pulled down by his jersey and he was trying to stay in the play!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Looks like Matty might be entering concussion protocol
