  1. I love the Tanev addition. Mammoth fans are going to love him. It feels like we have too many D-men now. I thought that Simashev and Lamoureux would be penciled into the line-up this year, but I like your point that there are no free passes. They've got to earn a spot. Canucks goalie Silovs (pronounced "She-lovs") would be a great addition if we could get him. He just helped win the AHL Calder Cup. A third-round pick would probably do it.

  2. Turbo! Gonna be an instant fan favorite. Not the biggest scorer but he brings the energy. You don’t get a nickname like Turbo for no reason, happy to see the signing of him and Schmidt.

  3. We loved Turbo Tanev when he was in Seattle until we realized after the trade that he was somehow toxic in the locker room. The time we made trades is when my squids actually started winning games. But if the culture is good there then he will be a good asset. Still wished Utah were the Coyotes

  4. I guess I don't really see what Tanav brings that Bjugs wouldn't at a better price. Three years is a lot for Tanav and I hope he's not going to block the plethora of young #1s we have waiting their turn.

  5. We need to get Bainer signed…and really get Hayton and Cooley signed to new contracts this offseason as well. Don't want either to become RFAs.

  6. As a jets fan who had both Schmidt and tanev you will love tanev for his defensive play. Schmidt isnt a point producer anymore but his an amazing locker room guy

  7. Tanev is definitely another great adding to the team. Schmidt, we will see how he might fit into the systhem. I don't know why Yamamoto is so much underestimated. He had great games with the Oilers, a venomus, sneaky player. I can see what Armstrong is up too, he wants fighters in the team. Nice guys like Bjugsted not fitting into that scheme. Marcelli, Carconi are definitely replaceble, too inconsistent. I stay out about the keeper situation, time will tell. Have you seen that Garland hasn't signed his contract offer yet or did he??? JJ Peterka is a great choice, he will be like Cooley, a weapon. Let's see what else might happen on the market

  8. Great video. Could you potentially do an updated video of all of the prospects in the mammoths organization now that developmental camp is over as well as a handful of new draft pics on the team?
