May I say that I almost had a heart attack at first glance

They might as well start shopping him
I understand ROR is an attractive trade target for other teams, I just dont see a world where we deal him simply because hes literally the only Top6 C on the roster right now. We have the worst C depth in the league so unless the return is a young NHL ready C to replace him, I dont see us moving him.
I’ve said it before but if we can find a nice return we might as well deal him even though it would be really heartbreaking. He’s one of our movable pieces and we might as well stick with tanking this season, especially since Pittsburgh has randomly decided not to tank
I really do get the temptation to try and trade him for something while we can, but I also feel like he’s the pseudo-captain of our team currently. Plus he’s the only competent center we have.
If we move ROR then I think Trotz has officially embraced a rebuild
Put a “C” on his chest and keep him with the kids. We don’t have enough center depth otherwise.
There are so many random slop ai articles by tiny blogs and sports journals that Google throws at you that are just massive clickbait. Stuff like “Stunning blockbuster trade happens” then you click and it says “In an EA Sports Simulation” or “In hypothetically discussion I had in my own head”. Things like that, it’s just ad revenue grabs.
With Josi being out and more injury-prone, ROR has really been the heart of the team. He’s stepped up (unofficially) as captain and actually lives for the game. That’s the leadership we NEED for our younger guys now that we’re letting them play
Also I have a soft spot for him 💔
Heavy Sports is just clickbait bullshit “””trade pitches””” all the time. They get you with those headlines and then when you actually open the article, it’s just someone saying “it could be interesting if…” I finally had to block them from my homepage.
Martin Erat netted Forsberg. OReilly is a proven wins-at-hockey center at a time where every team desperately needs centers. If we can get another Forsberg for him we have to do that
This is ridiculous. Some of you have LOST YOUR MINDS.
You can either watch him for an extra half season with the Preds and then he walks and we get NOTHING. Or we can get SOMETHING for him and we can all find a new favorite player and honor him when he comes back wearing another jersey.
Get SOMETHING for him. Picks. Young talent. Money. This franchise needs ALL of those things more than a 35 year old vet that’s good in the locker room and a fan favorite.
This is what we, sadly, should have done with Juice in the offseason before he resigned. If we had, we MIGHT already be turning the corner in a rebuild.
Sentimentality is gonna kill this franchise. I still can’t believe how many of you shed a tear over Tomasino and Glass. Glass had 15 points last year. Tomasino has played 4 games and been healthy scratched all season long.
