And we counter with Roby Jarventie and a 6th for Guentzel.

Ehh...

Pinto is pretty mid. had 35 points this year. he isn't a difference maker

6'3 21 yr old Center that has had 20 goals and is good in the faceoff dot and both ends of the ice?

If that is Mid then I hate to see the rest of your standards. At 21 that is a better start to a career than most players.

20 goals isn't that elite. taylor raddysh had 20 goals. so did andreas athanasiou

I can't see Dorion turning that down!!!


Looking at Jarventie in camp, you do your best to never bring him in trade talks. Actually, Dorion said so last year and people understand why now :

Bruce Garrioch @SunGarrioch

Dorion says five or six names come up in discussions about trades. Ridly Greig, Shane Pinto, Jake Sanderson and Roby Jarventie are among the names that other GM's ask about. Doesn't want to trade any of those guys. #Sens

Pinto's value has barely anything to do with "35 points this year". It's completely non-productive to mention it when talking about his value.


Let's completely ignore the ages, 2-way ability, and the fact that Pinto was a rookie thrown into a very difficult role he was not ready for after missing a full season due to injury
