Quoting: Hammerwise
Possibly too much from PHI, but both teams are competing now and not necessarily just in for futures. Both still carry value to moved elsewhere, but ultimately its about team fit and they both might fit better and benefit from the new location.
Also about cap space, PHI would have to do the JVR deal for nothing back and already have Provorov, Sanheim, Yandle playing well at LD.
I agree with what you're saying
I just think looking at my Team if a Sanheim was on the market they'd pay for him
Sanheim in MTL could be top guy beside Petry
This will allow Pressure to come off Savard and also allow Chiarot to shoot more giving us a big slap shot from the point again(currently he's been playmaking for Petry and its not worked)
It also gives Romanov-Niku better match ups
That's just MTL
A player like Sanheim hasnt lost as much value as Gostisbhere did for the same reason Girard hasnt
Theyre both good overall players in systems that have outgrown them as simple as that.
It happened to us with Mark Streit back in the day as he broke out then left us due to a limit role being offered as the system out grew him
Im not saying you'll get a kings ransome but something that works for both teams
A TDL deal wouldnt see a 1st and a prospect out of the question as long as its a late one from a contender
I mean if he was a RD under 25 maybe it would make more sense
But COL has LD depth and Quality LD depth at that which is why Girards expendable
Thats where this becomes a lateral move instead of acquiring them a forward they want.(that said they did want one NHL ready but last i seen Obrien was thriving in NCAA maybe he'll be ready sooner than later)
