Philly declines. Farabee is untouchable.

There's nothing clever about losing Mittlestadt for free.

This seems the opposite of clever honestly

- 17M$+ for vatanen reimer Cole 35yoPstastny 😐

- if they're tanking anyway weaponize that cap $

- selling quite low on Eichel and Reinhart

- unloading Mittelstadt for no reason

- a 2nd bullet point for how good Mittsy was this year

Not saying it's that bad but I'm very underwhelmed

I don’t even mind this criticism, I’ll take it over the usual “not enough for eichel”

You protect Mittelstadt. No question (unless you let him go due to the timing of the trade - still, I'd find a way to keep him).

Risto might be an overpay by Winnipeg.

On board with both the other trades even with Farabee removed (per the above), making the 2022 pick a 1st, and maybe adding a lower value prospect.

Wasn’t calling myself clever lol, just meant “something clever” for name of the thread.

I definitely overpaid for ufa but the reason was picking specific vets to come in to try and change the culture and stastny and cole have always seemed like solid guys to me. Reimer gives a solid duo. It’s why they were short term.

Middle man I chose only based on a few mocks I saw on who they might lose.

I feel untouchable is thrown around here too often

But Farabee just had a similar u20 season to

Seguin
Getzlaf
Hertl
RNH
Etc.

So hey not too wild

I was a little too low on the PHI return that's actually a pretty cool return for Eichel and we should all give Cam York more hype around here damn he's superb

It's probably Thompson or Asplund, maybe Miller. Mitts isn't going to be lost.

Maybe a bear for reinhart trade could be possible but oilers wouldn’t unload a first and Mcloed too.

York = Samuelsson, the Sabres have Dahlin Samuelsson and Bryson for the future of the left side, even if they get rid of Bryson, they can find a bottom pair dman in free agency and they have Johnson as a prospect, not to mention if they feel obligated to take Power. The rest of the trade isnt close

Of course flyer fans would say that. Wouldn't be enough to land him though.
