    Eh I think thats probably the most bold one of my trades.

    I tried to find a good comp for value and Hagel and Jeanot deals are what I am looking at.

    But look, Holloway has 9 career points in 53 NHL games on the leagues best offense. If its the TDL and he still hasnt produced, EDM does not have a lot of picks and he may need to be moved.

    Flyers fans have been on here crapping on Hart for years. He hasnt done crap in years. Last year was his best year of his career and it was very mid.

    Plus im not a Hawks fan lmao so idrc what you say. Im unbiased in all of these deals anyways.

    This may be crazy, but maybe he just doesnt want to sign in Toronto... crazy ik!!!

    Hes a ppg player. Forsberg got 8.5 as one of those, Nylander is a pretty good comp for that. Maybe 9.5 if you wanna be crazy but thats it. To get over 10 as a player in their prime is crazy. Thats superstar money, not 1st liner money

    Dude what im incredibly high on the Flyers future lmao, i j think their team is garbage rn and very overrated. Sorry I said Provorov sucked when he was w Philly, Hart isnt super good, Tippett and Brink arent A prospects and Cates isnt gonna win the Selke this year... sorry!

    What do you think Hart is worth? Seriously? A top 20 pick? Like what lmao. Okay add a late 2nd if you want idgaf

    I’m ok with the Vegas, Edmonton and Nashville trades for Chicago but I would pass on the Philadelphia and L.A. proposals.

    The Hawks have several talented young goalies in their system, I would prefer to let them develop and see what we have. I also think Philly fans would look at that as an underpayment for Hart.

    The L.A deal I have no interest in, I personally think Byfield is showing himself to be just a guy, nothing special and therefore I’m not giving up a promising prospect in Greene plus a 1st and 2nd round draft pick for him.

    See that’s what I mean lmao you genuinely just don’t know what ur talking about with the Flyers. Provy did suck but they gave him 3rd liners to play with he never had a good partner after 2019. Hart has been putting up league average stats on like some of the worst defensive teams in recent history lol, he would be a top 10 goalie if he played on any playoff team. Tippett was drafted like 5th overall he’s absolutely an A prospect. Brink won the NCAA player of the year lol and he’s already having a solid start to the year when he had loads of injuries the last few years. Cates already had Selke votes as a rookie in a new position for him, he isn’t gonna win it but he’s one of the best defensive forwards in the league. I’m tired of debating with you when it’s obvious you don’t like the Flyers. It’s easy to just mute you instead of seeing you troll the flyers at every given opportunity lmao it’s comical.

    Sorry not everyone is a blind Flyers fan.

    I could do this same stuff with islanders players. Bolduc is an AHL All Star hes an A prospect!

    Idc where players get drafted. Is Nail Yakupov an A prospect? A future HOFer?

    Tippett is turning 25 this season and has yet to crack 50 points. He gets hurt quite a bit and hasnt proven much defensively to me. Brink won NCAA player of the year at 22 lmao idgaf bro. I hope he does that when hes going against 18-20 year olds on a stacked team. 28 points in 41 AHL games as a 21/22 year old? Okay lol that nothing special. Simon Holmstrom did tha.


    I could go on. You are just so upset that I am not blindly high on ur entire team. Cates is gonna be a great middle six defensive piece. Michkov is a future superstar. Fedotov is a future all star goalie imo. I could go on.

    I am realisitc, youre blind and bias

    LA deal is based on Byfield performing that way. Two seasons of healthy Byfield with that production should easily get that imo. And it would be well worth it.

    Goalies are hard. Not super high on gajan but I love Commesso, but imo you need a starter in front of him. Could be someone else but should def get someone else who is a bit younger there too imo

    LA is good, they didn't move Byfield or Clarke for PLD or Fiala, can't imagine it's Ryan Greene who moves the needle.

    Also, Byfield has come this season ready to play, already has a goal and his Coach just said he played his best game as a King.

    LA hasn't really sold low on too many of their 1st round prospects.

    Dude, no way Raddysh has the same value as Hagel and Jeanot. Sorry, but that's a bad comparison. I like Raddysh too, don't get me wrong.
    Holloway averaged less than 10 mins a game last year man. He played primarily on the third and fourth line, and had no special teams time. He is a lot better than his stats suggest. Holloway is a pretty important piece, so very unlikely he gets moved. Add to the fact that he's on a ELC, he is a cheap body, for the cap-strapped Oilers.

    Chicago has a handful of Forward prospects that should be able to contribute to the NHL roster come 2025, Obviously you need to surround those players with some experienced NHL players.. Some prospects will be moved for NHL talent, but there are some prospects missing.

    No to Carter Hart. One of Soderblom, Commesso or Gajan will have the net.

    Kaiser, Nolan and hopefully Rinzel will be a part of the d-core by 2025
    Ludwinski, Greene, Dach and should be a part of this team. Lardis, Marcel and Misiak are longer shots.

    Again, not everyone will become full time NHLers, and some of these prospects might be traded for NHL ready talent.

    I’ve been saying for a while he signs 9.5x6 but after last night I’d even pay him 10

    Holloway as a rookie that hasn't spent hardly anytime in the top 6 or on the powerplay and is on his ELC you're talking about here, lol. what?

    Holloway vs Raddysh 5v5 per 60

    Not even for Eichel.

    They should’ve traded for Eichel but Byfield was untouchable. I bet that was a huge sticking point for BUF.

    Byfield has looked very promising in the 2 games he’s played. This is the first year that he begins the year healthy. People who don’t watch the Kings hardly know this.

    He’s shooting the puck more and actually putting it on net.

    Doubt NSH would be willing to move 10OA, considering it would the first time they have had a top 10 pick since Seth Jones. I won't rule it out, as it is dependent on who is left, but I don't think that move is likely.

    Raddysh wouldn’t put up 20 goals with the oilers though in fact I don’t think he would make the team he had a 1.2P/60 5 on 5 he also put up 20Pts 12 goals 5 on 5. Derek Ryan arguably the oilers 12th forward had a 1.3/P60 5on5 with 11 goals. With all that being said there is absolutely zero chance raddysh would be the same player on the oilers
