So this pretty much means that we are done right? Obviously shit can change quickly but other than that?

He said there is another move possible
We will see

So Berggren and Edvinsson are basically confirmed as locks for the roster next year. Which we all assumed, but it’s nice to hear that Steve is thinking the same thing.

Sounds like AJo is gonna start in AHL. Not a guarantee but didn’t make it sound like he’s gonna play until the first guy gets hurt

RECAP:
3 goalies will compete in camp assess keeping 2 or 3 then, sounds like Husso isn’t fully healthy yet
Not an immediate trade in the works but thinks that another move could happen
Expects more from Cat/Raymond, Cat shooting percentage was lower than average he expects that to improve
Likes D core right now expects big role from Edvinsson
Berggren got a shout out as a possible contributor
ASP back to SHL
Has numbers set aside for the RFAs for both short and long term, question of when not if they’ll get signed, all comes down to term
Stressed patience with prospects it takes time to put together the core and he’s still piecing it together
Berggren, AlJo and Ed will all be in the lineup
End of last year was a little misleading need to fix a lot of things to be a playoff team, pressure isn’t affecting decisions, stressing this takes time
Feels like they’re in that group of teams that are close, expectations are similar to last year
If Lucas can continue his trajectory he believes he’s an impact player
We were in on one big free agent but it’d have required “surgery” and would be a challenge to get done, had to adjust path
Perron and Ghost talked up until FA opened just couldn’t agree to a deal that worked out
Expected the big names to get big deals, the interesting part to Yzerman was the term and money given to role players, wasn’t our model, but the term was “attention grabbing”
Doesn’t seek out Michigan born players but those players indicate they want to come home and it starts a conversation not all Michigan natives make sense contract wise or the role they’d play
When we traded Walman, we needed to move out money on backend, also mentioned what role the player would be in, sounds like he wanted a path for AlJo and Ed, highlighted how cost effective those guys are
Gustafsson can play right side he’s the Ghost replacement
Pleased with D Core right now, ask him again in a few months, has a vision for what the pairings will look like
Fischer popular in the room, very versatile, for the role he believes we got good value
Husso injury history played a significant factor into us adding in net, have to see how he performs in camp then we’ll make a decision
Larkin is training doesn’t believe he’s back on the ice yet
All players who have been injured will be ready for camp
Spoke on how much more information and resources young players have now in terms of development

When Steve speaks we listen
Well, now I guess we are done. For a while.
