Vlasic has been incredible. One of the most underrated players in the league.
I'd lock Vlasic up for eight but he'd be foolish to agree.So is the thought 8 years? It's a big aggressive when you can go 4 and then extend, for a guy unlikely to ever be a top powerplay guy and hence become a bit of an issue cap wise if he costs too much. At the same time, it's fun to see the makings of a core come together.. hmm
Yeah exactly if you extend for eight you gotta make it worth his while as well to sign away multiple UFA years.I'd lock Vlasic up for eight but he'd be foolish to agree.
He's also a rookie without offensive numbers that would lock up generational wealth.Yeah exactly if you extend for eight you gotta make it worth his while as well to sign away multiple UFA years.
Odd, they only list Brock Faber in the "just missed the cut" section....Who are the NHL’s best shutdown defensemen and why are they so valuable?
There are plenty of elite shutdown defenders who never get a turn in the spotlight because of the focus on points.theathletic.com
Vlasic at #2 on this list. Ridiculous for essentially a rookie. Pay this man his goddamn money

in a shocker Collin graf to SJ. Powers mentioned once we were not in the market for UDFA's I guess with so many picks tough to get slaggety Greene ETC to sign if we are also going after UDFA's. SJ has not even hit rock bottom yet. probably next year. We hit it the first 1/2 of this year.
Interesting read. Tinordi is huge and has reach but I think Foligno is the guy that can hurt you the most.

Uh oh. Don't let Bobby read the Anderson part...

That was a fun read, thanks for posting.

Boqvist might have been fine despite being rushed if he wasn't made of glass. He was playing on Columbus' top pair this year before his latest injury.I have no way to prove it but if you drafted Dobson or Bouchard they would’ve been ruined just like Boqvist. The team was in a bad way.
Seems as though Tinordi and Reichel have the best taste in music.

I believe that Bedard, Kurashev, Dickinson, Jones, Vlasic, and Mrazek played well this season.
Foligno, Anderson, Donato, Blackwell and Zaitsev were “ok”
Everyone else ranged from pretty bad to awful to incomplete.
