Honestly how I feel about Josh Yohe down to the salary lolI don't understand the hatred towards dogthateats honestly.
I hate him with a passion. I hate him on GDT’s.
I think he's perfectly fine as a middle intelligence guy getting paid for 0 mil.
I'm against Bertuzzi as a Zucker replacement. If we're ditching Zuck because of injury concerns then he's no better. He's missed 88 games the last 3 years.Think they let him go and move Granlund up to 2LW or make another play for JT Miller. Could see them being interested in a guy like Tyler Bertuzzi to fill the Zucker role since he's younger.
If I had to guess what the FO does is give him a similar contract to Raks. 5x5Give him 5x5.5 and be done with it.
I don't, for all we know he can get injured the second game of the season to miss 47 games. That's the legitimate concern for me. Again I understand he's tremendous hockey all over the ice for us. generates chances gets on the forecheck, hits people finishes off the chances he garners and that Geno sets up for him, but you're paying for him At His Highest Point and I'm just not interested in that. If he would come back and say sign 5 mil for 4 years I consider it. But I'm not going to beyond 4 years and I don't really want to go on much more than 3 years tbh.His final contract year. Do we really want to pay for what's to come, after?
@dogthateats Good for you. I've always thought you had that silly goose vibe going, and embracing it speaks to your character. Sure the strong son is very proud. Takes a man to own up to a collection of Madagascar gifs also.
It's a no Brainer if he takes under 5. My take is if he stays it'll be in the Rust/Rak 5M realm. He makes 5.5 now and is having one of his best seasons all around.I swear you guys deliberately try and give me headaches....
Anyways. I am all for bringing Zucker back, to a certain point. Id start with a smaller amount over more years 4mil and 5 years. I think you could possibly get him under 5mil for a 5 year length. If he wants more up front than the years come down to 2-3. Malkin and him have found their chemistry. Rak or Granlund on the other side make for a great 2nd line. Weve been screaming for a heart and soul guy on this team for awhile, lets not toss the one we got without trying to keep him.

We'll see but no matter how much a player says 'I love it here' that love only carries so far in reality. I don't want him walking unless we have a plan to replace his skillset.
Also I'm pretty sure LW free agents aren't good at all after Meier and he's likely resigned in NJ...Yeah give him 5x5 and it takes him to the end of the Rakell and Rust deals and it has him making the same yearly salary as those two. If he wants more than that, let him explore the open market to get that.
Like Granlund lolI’d rather let him walk, try and dump some more salary and wait for a legit difference maker to be available and pounce.
Like Granlund lol
We can't have humor while discussing the player who sprays water on opponents and Dan Potash before each gameI posted an offensive meme that said “I bring a sort of silly g**se vibe to the HFBoards that serious g**se don’t really like”
