With EDM out, DAL has the chance to swoop up a solid LW for a deep run. Hansson (3rd rd D) + 4th in 2018 would give EDM 2 assets for a potential rental. Solidifies the 2nd line for DAL, & gives EDM cheaper assets in support of building a team with salary cap challenges moving forward. Win-Win. Thoughts?
I’m so lost as to why anyone wants maroon? He has a good cap hit but what does he bring to a team besides size?
68 points (40 of them goals) in 129 games, he hits, stands up for his teammates and is an agitator when he has a cap hit of 2 million. He's shown he can play with top level talent (McDavid) and get (almost 30 goals). I do think a lot of people or over hyping him but he can be extremely valuable. The 8 points in 13 playoff games doesn't hurt either

Well when playing with mcdavid he just can’t miss the puck. Most of his goals are tap ins created by mcdavid. He’s gotten to play with getzlaf and mcdavid. I don’t think whoever picks him up is gonna play him on the top line. I just don’t see him creating the goals I guess is mostly my point. He’s the recipient of others playmaking.
I'll reverse youd offer maroon an a third for nichuskin
Not sure I could let Nichushkin go. Feeling is he'll return next season, and we'll likely need a winger if we end up having to lose Roussel. Maroon for me is a rental first, and only if he shows a fit do we consider bringing him back. Nichushkin's full potential is high, and with Rads I believe we've brought a mentor to help him get there...I'd like to see a little more before I consider moving on if I'm Nill. All things considered though, not a bad offer to throw out there.
