maas_art Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Eklund says we're talking to Edmonton about Lucic. So here's my thoughts: 1) its eklund so dont worry too much. 2) MB was shunned by Lucic once - generally speaking that means he will never ever had interest in that player again, so i really question it 3) IF there's any truth to it, you have to think we'd be sending Alzner (at very least) the other way, if not a couple of other negative contracts. Edmonton had better be sending us a top flight young player like Klefbom to offset Lucy's horrendous contract. 4) Weise + Lucic = very interesting team dinners.

Ive always though of Weal as Peca 2.0 Is he in the minors right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTed3 Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Weal is a bit smaller, but he's faster and more useful than Chaput. He's also a right-handed guy who can take face-offs if ever we need it. The problem is the logjam on the 4th line with Weise also recalled. So that's now Weise, Weal, Thompson, Peca, Hudon, and Deslauriers all sitting there. No room for all of them, so almost guaranteed Hudon is being traded and/or there's another move or injury to announce soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to assume at least 1 player is on the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess you could say that right now, with the logjam, our new acquisition is a bit of a 5th Weal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the roster limit no longer applies after midnight last night, which is why they could recall him (previously he was waiver-exempt, so he was one of the few guys other than JK or Mete we could demote without losing). But still, no need for 6 fourth-liners counting against the cap for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H_T_L Posted February 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Kinkaid went for a 5th in 2022 and Howard still sitting there with apparently no takers. I'd still throw out that 4th for him and see if they bite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are talking abou 4th line players, the fact that he is right handed and has more points than Chaput is enough for me 28 minutes ago, maas_art said: Eklund says we're talking to Edmonton about Lucic.

Its Eklund, I hate even commenting but if Alzner goes the other way and we can pick Puljujarvi too, then I wouldn't HATE it... but I'd still rather not. If we get Klefbom, I am all in!

Is there anybody out there that's available that could come in and do a better job? No, I see Mete as our #1leftie. In fact, I think you could convince NYI to sell low on Leddy and put him in that #2 lefty spot beside Petry and hopefully see a resurgence in his game.
