How do you hate Gionta but want Stoll? Stoll is an even worse one season wonder than Gionta. At least Gio continues to at least reach 40 points a year. Stoll only did that the year they went to the finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devs4LIFE Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Parise-Vrana-Gionta Elias-Zajac-Zubrus Malone-Madden-Langs Tallackson-Rupp-Clarkson Campbell-Martin Oduya-White Fraser-Vish/Greene I think that's pretty reasonable. And I think we can get 4 solid lines out of that, maybe alternate Langs and Zubrus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelastonealive Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Parise-Vrana-GiontaElias-Zajac-Zubrus Malone-Madden-Langs Tallackson-Rupp-Clarkson Campbell-Martin Oduya-White Fraser-Vish/Greene I think that's pretty reasonable. And I think we can get 4 solid lines out of that, maybe alternate Langs and Zubrus. I really don't like the idea of Vrana as a first line center right now. He didn't exactly light up the AHL. I know the surrounding cast was weak, but I don't see anything that says he's a number 1 center right now. And Tallackson has gotten enough chances and shown little. I'd rather plug Pelley or Sarge in his place. Also, no love for Pando? That makes me sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestevens Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Elias - Langkow - Gionta Parise - Zajac - Langenbrunner Pandolfo - Madden - Clarkson Zubrus - Holik - Rupp Martin - Oduya White - Liles Vishnevski - Mottau 7th man - Greene Realistic. However, im not positive on Holik and i would like another offensive defenseman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOULAM1 Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 (edited) Mottau Kidding right? Rupp ... Nice guy to teach the new AHL players how to adjust to the NHL but not a Devil next year. Edited May 18, 2008 by LOULAM1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the others we are no better off scoring wise than we were this past year. I don't like the thought of losing Oduya, but you have to give up something to get something. Unfortunately, I don't think a package of Gionta and Johnny would be enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceThief Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 With the way I've watched Lou operate over the years, it wouldn't shock me one bit to see Holikenstein reappear in a Diablos uni. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That package sure isn't bringing back Olli Jokinen. it's not enough: zajac & gionta, greene + 3rd would do it though. i'd have to swallow hard on giving up on zajac, but seeing how much the atlantic has improved itself, the devils cannot make a minor cosmetic change and hope they catch lighting in a bottle and another Marty year like this one. parise-elias-hossa zubrus-jokinen-langenbrunner pandolfo-madden-vrana clarkson-rupp-brylin pelley martin-oduya white-liles vishnevski-salvador mottau brodeur weekes the aforementioned jokinen trade hossa - 8/56 liles 6/28 pando 3/5 salvador 3/8 mottau 2/1.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC Devs Fan Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I still love the optimism of a major FA coming here. Lou will let the market shake out and try to pick up a bargain later. I think trading Gio now would be a waste; in our minds he's still the Gio that scored 48 but to every other GM he's just a player who had a career year. If we deal him that's what we can expect to get back, not a bona fide scorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triumph Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 lou can't bargain hunt this year, last year he could. he doesn't have to get hossa or campbell but he has to get one of the top 15 players without a doubt. my dream team includes hossa who is possible but almost certainly foolish. so i won't put it here.

USC09 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 If Elias stays at center than Malone/Elias Elias/Holik Malone/Bergfors/Vrana Parise Zajac Langenbrunner Pandolfo Madden Gionta Zubrus Rupp Clarkson Notes: I wouldn't mind bringing back Bobby Holik for Vet experience Oduya Martin Vishnevski Smith White Liles Extras: Corrente, Mottau(I would bring him back with a 2 year/$900K-$1M a year) This would be a reasonable roster for Lou's standards. But realistically those moves would not happen. I mean I definitely think Lou will be active this summer, and yes I expect some movement on July 1st and not the sit back and enjoy every good name being taken off the market by the Flyers and the Rangers like he did last year. Right now we have to focus on June 20th, thats when the Draft is and who we will pick at #21, my prediction is John Carlson of the Indiana Ice.
