Just need to get a bit of health, fire Mike Matheson into the sun, and maybe a middle 6 center I guess? Idk whatever. Weird game.

My really quick take is he looks like a decent enough 2nd pairing guy with offensive upside. He doesn't seem to drive play a ton on his own but the xG splits (from Natural Stat, Hockey Ref, and Evolving) show a player that contributes positively in a consistent manner and that if you were to put him in a high event offensive oriented pairing/system there is a lot of value there.

Alex Edler, Marc Staal, Alex Goligoski, Hjalmarsson, Ryan Murray, Jason Demers, David Savard, Erik Gudbranson, Montour, Nemeth, Jake McCabe, Oleksiak, and Stephen Johns. Wow there is a veritable cornicopia of expiring not particularly great D players. I'm still on the Ryan Getzlaf for dumb but funny acquisition for the Pens. Derek Stepan, Zajac, and Backes? Not a lot of forwards available. Oh I missed Iafallo. There it is.

DildenAnders posted:Marc Staal is such a traffic cone he literally has the same coloration of one. Any team that trades for him deserves should apologize to their goalie in advance. This is a team that traded 2x2nd round picks for 1 Douglas 'dog' Murray traffic cone extraordinaire. The team now has Brian Burke as a big part of its front office. A team that willingly added Jack 'mother fucker' Johnson AND Erik Gudbranson to their defensive core. There is no defenseman lovely enough they won't think about trading for them.

inferis posted:Reinfection is rare but possible Incorrect. B117 (UK/Bristol variant) and the P1 Brazilian have significant immune escape even in previously infected individuals. Go look up what happened in Mansus, Brazil for what P1 and 'natural herd immunity' looks like. Hainsey gets a pass because it led to that awesome goal and a cup. Scuds I thought was a UFA signing not a rental the 2nd time around. Isles going for it. With that center depth and scoring add they are going to be really difficult.

Punishing the player when the team still held a full freaking practice post positive test with everything known about incubation period and infection times would be a hugely dick move so of course it'll happen.

Oh wow a no pressure zone entry against a bottom 3 team in the league leading to a goal that Sid, Byfuglien, Girox I think has a few, and Matt Martin scored. Yeah definitely something only Drai and McDavid could do.

I think that could be hilarious and maybe bad/good. Edit: tbh Hall in the Pens system could also be sweeeeeet but would be shocked if it happens or mad at what they give up.

Eric the Mauve posted:This is random as hell but Sam Lafferty always looks like a pretty decent bottom line forward when I watch him but boy do his stats suck. Might be because the bottom line is usually stuck with the defensemen who aren't Letang or Dumoulin, i.e. extremely bad defensemen. Or maybe he's just bad and he's only in the NHL because ~local boy~, I dunno. Sam Lafferty has NHL level skating and nothing else. He's fine enough for 4th line player that is a few injuries from the line up and gives you not horrific performances. But, imo, Freddy G and Zahorna should definitely be ahead of him on the chart. Sceviour too but he's making too much and this game so far aside is also completely replaceable.

I'm willing to give Carter a bit of leeway maybe in that he's getting 2.6 per and hopefully be better than Brassard ever was. My guess is/was that the Pens were shopping for a 2/3C so they can really take their time with Geno (which is why I kept bringing up Getzlaf, but I guess Carter is a cheaper similarly bad option). He'll play like the 16 minutes a night he's already playing with like Zucker and McCann I guess. If/When Geno comes back he'll get bumped down with more D zone deployments (like he had in Philly) and probably Evan Rod and ZAR as his wingers which could be a decent line....maybe. That moves Blueger to the 4th line which is with like Freddy G and probably Lafferty (unfortunately). Probably gets to be on the powerplay for some amount.
