Lots will also point at Athanasiou, but I think they'll do everything they can to keep him in the fold.
Weber
6:59
Do you think a contending team would trade for him at the deadly ne, if he is back and on his game
Gavin Lee
6:59
Shea Weber? No.
7:00
That contract is too big.
No contending team can fit it in.
Well...not "no" team..but not a lot of teams.
It would be super difficult to trade.
Under the radar

Who is the best player not in the nhl
Gio

who is the best player not playing in the nhl right now
Gavin Lee
7:01
Do players that haven't made their debut yet count? Dahlin/Svechnikov/Heiskanen/Makar/Hughes?
(Sorry Vancouver...Pettersson too)
7:02
If they don't, I'll say Kaprizov or Gusev for forwards..
7:03
Maybe just for anyone.
McKenny
7:03
Assuming no major injuries, are the Panthers a depth player or two away from having a big season this year?
Gavin Lee
7:03
They don't need anything to have a big year.
They're a good team and should be pushing for the playoffs without a doubt.
7:04
I'm a big Mike Matheson fan.
SJ

What’s the latest with Patches? Thought he’d be moved by now...
Gavin Lee
7:04
So did I.
If the Skinner trade shows us anything, there isn't a huge market at the moment for scoring wingers.
Montreal can't trade their captain for a second round pick and good (but not great) prospect.
Sneak
7:04
Do you see the Wild making any add/trades
Gavin Lee
7:05
They'll make moves for sure at some point, but Fenton won't get rushed.
Hard to come into a situation where they've done just fine for a long time, and go scorched earth.
You're bound to make mistakes that way.
SJ

Have the Karlsson rumors come to an end this offseason?
Gavin Lee
7:06
They have not.
Just wait until a few days before training camp.
Remember Duchene showing up in Colorado?
I love the Sabres
7:06
I think they had a great offseason....will they make the playoffs?
Gavin Lee
7:07
I won't bet on it just yet given their division, but they'll be in the hunt a lot longer.
I really liked their offseason too.
Knocking one of Tampa/Boston/Toronto out of a division spot, without letting Florida jump over you will be tough. Getting a wildcard spot is a crap shoot.

What’s your feeling on whether or not Terry and steel start with the big club? Do they? I know it’s not carlisle’s style to rely on too many rookies, but their bottom six is mostly unexciting..
Gavin Lee
7:08
Yeah, I wrote a piece about how many battles there are in Anaheim this year.
7:09
If I were to handicap it before camp starts, I'd say Terry earns a roster spot (but not necessarily full-time starts) and Steel goes to San Diego.
Alright guys, I'm going to shut it down right there.
Thanks again for coming out..these chats are getting me through the slow offseason.
Hockey is coming...
