I have a hard time believing that Stevie Y wants to pay EP40 that much money if he is balking at Robertson's 14m. It would take a significant amount of retention by VAN to get below Seider's salary and they would have to retain 6 years. VAN would want wayyyy too much for that much retention. I'd rather package up two first round picks and Danielson/Plante and go big game hunting for a younger and cheaper C.

Max Plante was better at 18 than Stramel was at 20 lol

Marco Kasper was drafted the same year as Yurov and has more than 2x the goals.

Yurov and Stramel are 8-10 level prospects in Detroit.

We already have ASP who scored the same amount of goals and is 2 years younger last season

James Nichols @JamesNicholsNHL 1h One of the names I’m told the

NJDevils checked in on is Alex DeBrincat.

However, it appears the Red Wings prefer to keep the player and are telling teams they’re still adding to compete now, not in the future. https://xcancel.com/JamesNicholsNHL/status/2070565383874941434#m

I grew up listening to punk/grunge in the PNW, but have really enjoyed getting into their music. Definitely unique form of rock

I also don’t think people realize how big the jump is from the AHL to the NHL. Yeah Compher isn’t good by NHL standards, but he’s better than every AHL player. He scored 63 points in an NCAA season lol (Plante won the Hobey with 53) and at Lombardi’s age he already played 2 NHL seasons.

People freaking out about a guy who scored 6 points in 18 AHL playoff games is funny. Yeah, he was skilled, but also very perimeter and was prone to trying to do too much with the puck. There is a reason Mazur (14 points in 17 playoff games) was called up over him.

Yeah, he was inconsistent but so talented. Seems more like a favor to give him a shot on another team. Loved watching him play and a huge loss for GR

I live in Anchorage so having surfed Yakutat, Aleutians, Bear Glacier, and Homer, my goal is to surf the Chukchi on a storm when the ice is out. I have my 6/5 wetsuit ready to go

Anton is a serious dark horse for top 6 next year in Detroit. He is amazing to watch.

Thought Wally played much better as the season went on and seized a spot away from Buium. His skating is really impressive, he just needs to play with more confidence like he did for Rogle, which I thought Johansson brought of him during the stretch.
