Saad looked fantastic with the blue jackets. His defense has still been solid this year, and he started hot- his down season might be more of a symptom of the team's failure than anything. He would look great with Backlund and Tkachuk
Obviously Tavares would be magnificent, but what chance in hell do we have to actually land him? Everything he has said indicates he wants to stay in NY, and even if not we'd be competing with Max bids from many other teams. With the local tax rate and the middling results this season, we are at a severe handicap in that race from onset, nevermind the canadian market thing.
