Thread: Seth to Utah

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>boilermaker</b></div><div>I agree Seth is a capable player, though overpaid by a couple of million. And playing 25 minutes is important as the younger defenders learn their way. I'm just looking forward 2 or 3 years and would want Levshunov and a good forward prospect on the cusp of making the team at that time instead of a possibly declining Jones. I have a feeling Seth's contract isn't going to age very well. He probably has 3-4 years left of good play, then the wear and tear of playing all those minutes will come into play. He'll be a boat anchor for the last 2 years, so trade him now while he has value (ripe opportunity if you ask me with Utah) and obtain a future asset that will be coming into his own when the team becomes competitive.</div></div>

But even if it is 3-4 years. He's still going to be capable of 2nd pair responsibilities and we're still going to have plenty of cap space with all the prospects coming up. I much rather have proper prospect development with veterans on the team than trade away all the veterans.

Thread: Leafs need players with playoff success

I 1,000% believe the Penguins should tear it down, but it won't happen and not for Marner. If you trade Crosby it's for picks and prospects.

Thread: What a trade down might look like

I don't see this happening. The Habs and Hawks are in similar positions when it comes to prospects. Both are near the top in the league for overall rankings. Both what high end vs quantity. So it boils down to the Habs have to think the #2 is far better than #5, but the Hawks have to think the opposite. That #5 & #2 aren't very far off.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>By the time the 6th overall needs to be paid , it’ll be 4 years. Even then a bridge is possible and then Jones expires.</div></div>

I just want to keep Jones. I think he's one of the most underrated players in the NHL considering all the Leafs fans saying hes worth $5M...crazy! Yes our team isn't good right now. He's still 25atoi playing against the opponents top pair and was with essentially a rookie the entire year last year. Yes Vlasic is good, but rookies are still rookies.

Bedard with another Goal already today...I think he HAS to be on any team Canada going forward. Like always and forever. Even if he's on wing. Even if he's in net.

But it's not Brady vs the 19th. It's Brady vs the 2nd. Those are the core pieces. Now the 7th and 19th.

Oh, 100%. If Brady was available, he be 1 guy I'd strongly consider though. There are a handful of players you just can't replicate. The Tkachuks are 2 of them.

Thread: Brady Tkachuk would be your 2nd best player

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>Nope . We have a ton of 2nd liners / 2nd pair guys except for Stutzle/Sanderson and we likely won’t ever bottom again if we retool. We need young high end pieces</div></div>

I'm jumping on the hypothetical bandwagon because I don't actually want to trade Seth Jones, but IF he wanted out...which I'm pretty sure he doesn't, but IF...could he headline this trade? More pieces involved? Just talking for discussion sake.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but if you're trading Brady...aren't you kinda retooling at least? In this hypothetical scenario, couldn't this be one of the rare times when quantity of picks/prospects might be ok for quality of player?

Would you trade him to the Hawks? This is one of the few guys I'd actually trade pieces away for despite our current building process. I believe we could get him to sign another deal here.

The same exact amount as if they have Marner and Rielly. The Hawks are just starting their build. Let them just build at their own pace.

Ah yes, a team in need of cheap effective centers that has expensive wingers would trade away their cheap effective center for another expensive winger that they can't afford.

Thread: Sabres

I really just don't want Skinner almost regardless of the price the Hawks are getting. That 3rd year is an absolute crusher. We can take 2 year deals all day long, but 3 is too much. I'm much more in favor of Anders Lee and JGP. They also provide more leadership and the meat/potatoes work for a 200' game.

They view him as a potential Andrew Shaw. We'll see, but that type of player has a role on teams.
