Wow this is bad

Urho alone is worth more than Saad.
Research, then post

Idk I'm looking at some AGM for 2020-21 bruins and Urho doesn't even make the team, but your getting a great foward in Saad that can put up 50 points and you could resign him for less then his actual contract now.

I'm not saying you're delusional, but you're definitely overvaluing Urho. In basically all the midseason prospect rankings I looked at, he didn't crack the top 100 (best I saw was 99). I know those are subjective and very often wrong, and I do think Urho could become a top 4 dman, but Saad 1000% has more value as a proven top 6 forward. With the 1st that will probably end up being around #28-31, the value seems fair to me, maybe a bit skewed to CHI but not by much.

Bruins say "no thank you".

I think Urho is the wrong target from the Hawks point of view. They have too many Dmen right now and Rockford's Dpairs to start the season are likely below. Urho could replace Gilbert, but the Hawks still have Chad Krys that needs ice time too.
Carlsson - Mitchell (NHL ready Dpair)
Beaudin - Regula (1-2 years away)
Gilbert - Kalynuk (older guys)

First off, I appreciate both of your reasonings and kindness. I havent seen enough of that here and its led me to be much more harsh than I had to be so i am sorry for that.

In saying that, Urho is a top 4 defensive prospect and those ranking do usually stink. Just last year, the bruins had "the 5th worth future", then people started pointing out that between Pasta, Mcavoy, Carlo, Griz, Coyle, Urho, Stud, Ritchie, Kase, Debrusk, the three goalie prospefcts, etc... the bruins are perfectly fine for the future.

In saying THAT: me saying Urho alone is worth more than Saad may be false, but urho and a 1st is certainly a huge overpayment. Mind you Saad still has a 6 million dollar cap which is huge. And the bruins are doing fine without 2RW. Now if they can get a 2RW for say Zboril, Kuhlman, and a 2nd, they will (and its certainly doable at that price for the other team).

Bruins do reject that offer. But with some adjustments, it could be done

I disagree with that guy almost always, but he’s right. Vaak is worth more than saad in my opinion. Sweeney wouldn’t even discuss moving him for Stone. Maybe that’s a bad move, but it’s just the way it is.

Vaak would have been on the vast majority of NHL rosters last year. He’s behind Chara, Krug, and Grzelcyk. Three excellent LD. Not exactly his play that’s to blame.

Buffalo doesn't want De haan

Yeah agree, we don't have the need for Urho. People often forget we have Vlasic in the system as well on the left. I can't understand why people keep trading for bottom D guys when are cabinets of prospects are stacked with bottom 4 D guys.
