Gavin Lee

Figured he would get a long-term deal, and he is like the perfect Ken Holland player
6:19
Do I think it's a terrible idea? Yes, very much so yes
One More JAGR
6:19
What are my Pens going to do?  We have some cap but need to fill some losses on the 3rd lines as well as some extensions and add a goalie.
Gavin Lee
6:19
The goalie thing is the biggest question I think
Nothing works unless they have a goalie
6:20
Doesn't matter if they have Tanev or McCann, if Jarry can't stop the puck
And who knows, maybe he WILL stop the puck a lot next year
But that's a heck of a gamble in my eyes
Baker
6:21
Who does Hextall go after?
Gavin Lee
6:22
This is a good question and not one with an easy answer
Frederik Andersen keeps popping into my mind, but is he a better bet than Jarry?
Mrazek has similar inconsistencies
6:23
Raanta could be an interesting option to actually pair with Jarry, if you want to keep all three goalies
Steven
6:24
Any news on Hamilton? Return to Carolina since he’s apparently an awkward locker room guy?
Gavin Lee
6:24
I think Hamilton might not even be a day 1 free agent signing
I don't think that camp is rushing to do anything
He's going to get paid
And lots of teams are interested
But with this expansion stuff, teams weren't able to make all the moves they would need to fit him in
6:25
That stuff will happen in the next week, and we'll see where his best market opens up
BabyYodaPenguins
6:25
Carolina has 3 goalies but all UFA I think... perhaps Pens make a deal with them for a goalie?  Penguins then sign goalie to one year "let's see how you do" deal
Gavin Lee
6:25
The thing is, the Penguins can't afford to do that kind of a deal
6:26
Their window is closing (if not already closed) with the core guys
They can't waste one on "Well, I guess Bernier wasn't the answer after all"
Dean
6:26
What else does Dallas need to add to make a Lindell for Jones trade work? 2nd round pick + Nick Camaano or Adam Mascherin?
Gavin Lee
6:26
We talking Seth Jones?
6:27
I certainly don't think it will be a contract like Lindell going back in a Seth Jones trade
What does that do for Columbus?
6:29
I think we're looking at almost all futures for Jones, or young players on cheap contracts at least
Not a 6 million dollar defensive defenseman
Rags Fan
6:29
Does Drury have an actual plan? Or is he making stuff up as he goes... I think he overpaid for Goodrow. No? What's next, bring back Jack Johnson for 4.5 to be a veteran presence? Idk... what am I missing?
Gavin Lee
6:29
I hate the Goodrow deal, personally
6:30
Like the player fine, but there's no reason to go six years for him
I mean, he was playing with probably the best linemates he'll ever have, and he generated 72 shots.
I know that's not his thing
6:31
But for 3.6 it's going to have to be part of his game
John
6:33
Would you go on spittin chiclets if given the chance?
Gavin Lee
6:33
Certainly, if they'd have me
Brian Burke
6:33
Am I upset or happy that Seattle took Tanev?  I love toughness and grit, but that contract...
Gavin Lee
6:33
A little of column a, a little of column b
