ARMCHAIR-GM TEAMS

Forum: Armchair-GM59 minutes ago

Thread: id love this

lol. throw in Zibanejed and Lafreniere in place of Chytil, Korzak, and Sykora and we can start discussing but that's a ridiculously unbalanced trade otherwise.

Forum: Armchair-GM1 hour ago

Thread: Marner and Gus

Seattle counters with a 5th. Positional need but not really worth much more investment.

Forum: Armchair-GM1 hour ago

Thread: Sabres

Seattle passes unless Buffalo qualifies and deals with the arbitration process. Even then the devil you know is better than the devil you don't.

Forum: Armchair-GM1 hour ago

Thread: Marner to Seattle

Toronto fans need to give up on the thought of Wright, a 2024 1st rounder, and/or Larsson for Marner. it was a slow news day and the media needed something. Marner would be great but only if there was more than 1 yr on his contract which there isn't at this time.

Thread: Marner to Seattle

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>What's the incentive for Marner to waive to Seattle? Too much $$$ and term for Bertuzzi. Don't really know what the motivation would be for one year of Marner from Seattle's POV.</div></div>

The incentive is no state income tax. Can make more money with a lower AAV

Thread: Would Seattle move Bjorkstrand

Seattle's not moving Bjorkstrand as long as he's on the current contract.

Forum: Armchair-GM13 hours ago

Thread: Sway it aint so

Easy "No" from Seattle. Seattle's not trading two of their top prospects, and a first rounder, for RFA rights that are arbitration eligible.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 9:38 p.m.

Thread: off season

Please let this happen.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 9:37 p.m.

Thread: upgrade----gt2025

Kraken pass. Daccord will be Disco Dan's #1 goalie next season. Anderson is nice but not at the cost of Larsson.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 6:09 p.m.

Thread: Seattle

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>That's fair, I thought I heard somewhere they wanted to be competitive now hence the trade</div></div>

I wouldn't say you heard wrong but too many people want that Vegas experience. There is pressure to win now based on another season ticket price jump and wanting to maintain community interest. If the city gets a NBA franchise that's also another reason to be really good.

My guess is when the team becomes competitive the only expansion picks left on the team will be Larsson, McCann, Eberle, Daccord, Borgen, and maybe Gourde.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 1:02 p.m.

Thread: Seattle

Seattle's real compete window is about 2 years away so trading for a slightly older injury prone prospect doesn't do them much.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 12:57 p.m.

Thread: Gettin Bigger

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MNBassman</b></div><div>Why not for Brodin?</div></div>

Some reasons, none are due to Brodin's abilities as I am a fan of what he brings.
1) Another smaller puck moving LHD that blocks adding Evans on the roster in a regular role.
2) Seattle's not really in the best position to compete regularly in the playoffs.
3) As much as I'm not a fan of Oleksiak he does at least have size.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 10:21 a.m.

Thread: Gettin Bigger

Wright is off the table. Floor today is he winds up being a 3rd-4th liner that can play top minutes if needed (Sam Gagner but bigger), ceiling is that he shows he should have been the #1 pick in 2022. My take in watching him is that missing a year due to COVID really hurt him but you see what he's done in the AHL as a 19yo, and his last call up with Seattle, and there's a lot of promise there.

Personally I'm open to moving Oleksiak but not for Brodin.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 9:41 a.m.

Thread: Trust the Utah Process

You might be able to get Gru for just a 3rd or 4th at this point. With Disco Dan taking over coaching I think his preferred goalies are Daccord and Driedger. They'll re-sign Driedger for less than trading for a goalie.

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 9:36 a.m.

Thread: Zach Wyders DAL

As Seattle's top RHD prospect, Ottavainen isn't getting moved. There's a better chance of Seattle trading their Tanev than this scenario.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed. at 8:56 p.m.

Thread: Kraken Blockbuster

RF typically doesn't qualify RFA's with arbitration rights. He's been vocal that he doesn't like the arbitration process. That alone probably keeps Seattle from pulling the trigger. In his time in Seattle no RFA with arbitration has been tendered. Tolvanen may be the first so we will see.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed. at 4:09 p.m.

Thread: Big SEA Trade

If Seattle moves Gourde it will be at the trade deadline and not the off-season.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed. at 4:07 p.m.

Thread: Pens

Eberle's not being traded after the contract he signed.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed. at 11:44 a.m.

Thread: Turning Chicago into a Good team

Seattle takes that in a heartbeat, puts you on speed dial, and calls back to see about getting 2nd rounder for Tanev.

Forum: Mock-DraftWed. at 12:38 a.m.

Thread: Mock with 30 picks decided

Seattle takes Dickinson at 8 if he falls that far.

Forum: Armchair-GMTue. at 12:40 p.m.

Thread: How bout a different trade

Seattle would want Geekie back. Only reason he wasn't qualified is that he had arbitration rights and RF seems to do everything to avoid that process.

Forum: Armchair-GMMon. at 11:29 p.m.

Thread: Need to do something

Can't see Seattle trading Daccord now that Disco Dan is the head coach but at that much of an over pay they may have to

Forum: Armchair-GMMon. at 11:10 a.m.

Thread: Marner trade - Leafs pov

Why would Seattle move a player that's under a better contract for RFA rights w/ arbitration? Their GM already has a penchant for not offering to arbitration eligible RFA's on his own team. Francis' view seems to be all about avoiding arbitration at any cost.

Forum: Armchair-GMMon. at 10:43 a.m.

Thread: Waddell wins over Columbus

Seattle's not likely to move Gourde until the TDL. But I would make that move.

Forum: Armchair-GMSat. at 9:23 p.m.

Thread: Adding Three Good Defensemen

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoSeider53</b></div><div>:laugh 7 x $11,000,000 for Mitch Marner, he's already just about making that much. Good luck getting Marner to take less than $12,000,000 to $12,500,000 per for long term.</div></div>

I don't disagree but also no state income tax in Washington so 11M adjusts out a little better for the pocket book.
