Aznjsn Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 6 hours ago, Nicomo said: Not to mention Timo is exactly the type of player this team needs. Power forward with good size who is right in his prime, and lines up with their window perfectly. Gaudreau would have obviously been a nice pickup, too, but he’s 5’9 165 lbs (we are already a tad on the small side as it is) and about to turn 30 this offseason. Exactly. I'm so glad we didn't end up with Gaudreau and that contract. We don't need another smallish forward, possibly exiting his prime in the next two years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nessus Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 People are assuming Holtz was told he would be traded, and then was sent down so that SJ could evaluate him. To me, this makes little sense. There's no better way to kill a relationship with a player than to tell him he's about to be traded and then for there to be a chance he isn't. I think it's more likely that he was told he is being sent down to stay, and he's a little frustrated by that, so he changed his bio and profile picture. The way he was handled this season has been just awful. I would really like to see him go on a tear down there, and score some nice power play goals teed up by Nemec. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Ottawa Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Was he really mistreated though? He was given the opportunity several times on a fast dynamic team in the best league in the world and he choked hard. Some guys just can't cut it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holtz might not be ready, but he deserves more chances than freaking Wood. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Ottawa Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 That's true. But we don't want a first rounder on our fourth line anyway, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be honest, I’d take you or I out there right now over Wood. At least we’d be pylons and statistically less likely to take an offensive zone penalty than him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than not playing at all. And I’d much rather have Holtz on the 2nd PP unit over whatever this version of Miles Wood is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was given 10 mins a night with Miles Wood or Erik Haula usually after not playing for 3 weeks straight. He has not been given good opportunities. That said, when he did come in his effort level didn’t look to be there so he can’t complain too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lateralous Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Hate the leafs but that actually seems like a really smart trade on their part. I think adding those two players does more for them than giving up more assets for Meier. Also, I’m selfishly glad that they are out of the Meier sweepstakes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevils1214 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 (edited) F the leafs but it beats the Rags winning(if it comes to that). Edited February 18, 2023 by NJDevils1214 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerrydevil Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 I guess Minnesota felt that it was worth the money to spend $1.8 million for a 4th round pick. Is that the equivalent of buying a lottery ticket? Maybe the 4th round pick hits big and it only costs less than $2 million? There's probably a chart somewhere showing what draft picks are worth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicomo Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 ROR is definitely the type of player who can help them actually see the 2nd round of the playoffs. Similar to the Devils adding Palat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
