$4.5M is too risky for an unproven Ruskie
Yes, better to spend almost exactly that on a proven vet. like Alzner.

Well worth the risk IMO. Plus we have the cap space and nothing else to spend it on.

I like, sorry love, the risk/reward. The cap space means NOTHING to us during the next two years.
Not when it’s only 2 years and you have tons of cap space

Bergevin can’t attract players who have a choice (UFAs) and won’t pay for players who don’t have a choice.
The parts of the team he built were laid on a bargain hunters mentality.
Tatar was a throw in
Domi was his back to the wall get what you can for AG
Byron was a waiver pick up
Dano hadn’t lived up to his potential
Armia was a salary dump
Weber was his back to the wall get what you can for PK
Weal, Folin, Kulak, etc. are part of that endless list of scrubs he loves to waste time on.
If you take an objective look you’d have to conclude this guy can’t get anything right CONSCIOUSLY. The horseshoe he hides in his left bicep has kept him in the game.
He’s basically a GM on life support.

Or to have $10m in unused cap space. Much better "usage."

McPhee on Gusev's potential- “We think he’s a very intelligent player, he’s got very good hands, he’s not a big guy and he doesn’t have elite speed. So it’s hard to know exactly what he’ll be.”
Need the cap space fir Laine.
silly Patrol, cap space is a grear asset that can score 20 goals, just ask the cult of Bergevin

he got radulov, too bad he didnt sign him to a longer initial contract
Yup, With our cap space it may have been a good gamble.
Rather take a shot on some talent than have unused cap space

Ya forgot that one. But again, that summer he strikes out and brings in Radulov which was a Hail Mary wasn’t it.
And when the player shows that he was worth it, the idiot picks a media battle with him and loses him.
When’s the last time he brought in a player in his prime, paid the price, and was the type of player we could get genuinely excited about? I can’t think of one.
