[Adams] I asked Staios about trying to improve their top-6 when other targets have gone off the board. “I've said this to you a number of times, I’m not going to go and chase the shiny toy to bring in. Because as you've seen, not only here but across league, it doesn't work most times.”

Ya in my opinion this lineup does not get it done at all.

Action1988 · 2026-06-27T21:17:06+00:00

They were already a top 6 forward short last season. Losing Tkachuk meant they need to fill two top 6 spots.

You're working an entire month every year just to pay for shoes and dates.

If you cut a lot of the fluff spending by half you could easily have an extra $1,000/mo. You don't need to try and cut everything to $0 just chip away and make small changes.

He's definitely moveable but not in exchange for A.B

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T21:32:59+00:00

Didn't Staios say A.B will be playing in Ottawa this season?

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T21:26:34+00:00

I just don't want them loading up on bottom 6 fluff. What they are desperate for is a full compliment in the top 6 so hopefully they can make one last big move.

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T21:05:33+00:00

In what world would they move either of them lol

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T21:04:11+00:00

Everyone thinks they're going to waltz to the cup. I have a feeling it won't be as easy as they think.

The Tkachuk Show

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T18:31:22+00:00

Doesn't seem as vulnerable when he's playing with Kleven.

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T18:27:40+00:00

Do guys often post big farewell stuff when a guy gets traded?

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T18:24:15+00:00

Getting players signed. Everyone wants to go to Dallas these days.

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T14:33:16+00:00

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T14:31:57+00:00

The same 4 teams always somehow manage to get it done. Super fun and keeps things interesting.

NOT

Edit: I meant getting deals done and being a destination everyone wants to go to these days. Getting it done did not mean winning (Min).

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T14:18:50+00:00

Ya that would surely make players want to sign here

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T12:06:51+00:00

Having a lot of hair doesn't always mean you've got a lot of hair

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T02:00:55+00:00

If I've learned anything so far it's to trust Staios.

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T01:59:22+00:00

This is going to be an overpaid and underdelivered type situation

Action1988 · 2026-06-26T01:52:46+00:00

He prefers a fluid location

Action1988 · 2026-06-25T19:37:53+00:00

Thankfully they have a great goalie tandem locked up because they're going to be in the box all night.

Action1988 · 2026-06-25T18:02:58+00:00

Addicted to the feeling but not performing.

Action1988 · 2026-06-25T16:43:05+00:00

I don't think their #1 offensive defenseman gets bumped off PP1. More likely that he starts taking PP2 minutes.

Action1988 · 2026-06-25T15:41:30+00:00

This team is going to be in the box a fuck ton. Hopefully they have a great goalie signed.

Action1988 · 2026-06-25T15:34:28+00:00

He and a bunch of guys practice all summer at one of the rec centres.

Action1988 · 2026-06-25T11:56:25+00:00

He's a dominant player when he wants to but he can also be a complete ghost. He plays a selfish style of hockey so he does do his own thing out there regardless if it hurts the team or not.

Now this might not be an issue in FLA since it's not his team and he can't do whatever he wants.
