Captain insano Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Seeing a fair amount of Rumours swirling around McLeod today thought I’d leave this here and see if anyone has more info to shed on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rekker Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 My guess is the Devils would want Hogs in return. I don't think I do it, but if Tochett really isn't into Hogs I could see where this may happen. Or Buffalo would want Pods. Again, I don't think I'd do that either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I do it, but if Tochett really isn't into Hogs I could see where this may happen. Or Buffalo would want Pods. Again, I don't think I'd do that either. I'd send a draft pick their way. He hasn't exactly produced offensively as a former first round pick. So no to Höglander or Podkolzin. Mcleod also in his 20's, I don't know what his contract status is like, but if he's looking to be paid, then no. We need cheap ELC players that can make an impact on the roster. Trying to fill out the roster with players who continually want to be paid more and more isn't going to get this team anywhere. Need those younger players to produce on the roster. Now if the Canucks can get McLeod for cheap (like Lafferty), then I'll all for that of course. With that being said, it's probably not happening right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesauce Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Nah, he's one of the non-deniers from the WJC team. The Devils aren't getting rid of him because they can't keep him or because he's playing horribly - quite the opposite in fact. Easy pass. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Duke Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Peripheral distractions aside, this is the the kind of potential “long term upgrade” I’d like the see Allvin pursue. Younger RHC that we can hopefully lock up for a reasonable rate. We have Suter next year for a good amount but Bleuger was just a 1x1.9 and Joshua and Laffrety are also up in UFA. An RFA C with cost certainty would go a long way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allvin and JR are in the know. They’ll steer clear of “those” players. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elias Pettersson Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 McLeod is the best faceoff guy in the NHL. He's also a great skater and likes to hit and scrap it up once in a while. He'd be a perfect fit on the 4th line in a Tocchet system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty obvious along with Katchouk, Batherson & Formenton at this point. Probably 4 other non-WJC roster players currently in the NHL also involved too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is Jersey shopping a guy they clearly need? He’s one of their few abrasive, hard to play against younger guys. Hence the questions about “baggage”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly didn't like how they vetted people (Colliton, Tocchet, Doerrie), but 2 out of 3 of them have done very well performance wise.
