Thread: Allvin and the Chipnucks
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BigTramFan</b></div><div>So true....I mean Poolman is clearly inferior to those Norris candidates...

Zaitsev on $4.5m, 22 games, 2 pts, +/- = -3
Brown on $1.2m, 24 games, 3 pts, +/- = -4
Poolman on $2.5m, 39 games, 3 pts, +/- = +3</div></div>

Yeah they're all ass, that's literally my point. The Sens are building a really good D core. Chabot, Sanderson, Zub and Brannstrom is a great core 4 long term, Holden is a great short term vet, and both JBD and Thomson have looked comfortable in the NHL this year.

The point I'm making is that where the Sens can go wrong from here is with these loser Dmen that drag down the team. They already have two of them that need to be gone this summer, adding another anchor is not at all worth it. I think Vancouver is gonna just have to stick it out with that deal.

Thread: TDL moves with next season in mind
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BigTramFan</b></div><div>Yeah we should move Dickinson</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Knuckl3s</b></div><div>No, just because he had one off night doesn't mean immediately throw him out the door. Can't be this reactionary to succeed in this type of business</div></div>

We absolutely should be looking to move Dickinson and not because he had one off night but because he's too expensive to not be playing C, he doesn't fit with the Canucks new staff wanting a fast team, he's good defensive forward but an absolute black hole offensively.

We shouldn't pay to move him but if we can't find a trade partner I wouldn't be shocked to see him be bought out this summer to create cap room. His buyout is very team friendly.

Thread: Chychrun realistic
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafs_and_Sens_Fan</b></div><div>Toronto isn't giving up all that for 2 years of JT Miller. That's approaching what Vegas gave up for 5 years of Eichel.</div></div>

This just isn’t true.

Krebs &gt; Amirov
Tuch &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Kerfoot

Also worth pointing out that Eichel has a $10 million cap hit where as in this scenerio Toronto would only be hit with a $3.25 million cap hit for JT Miller.

This trade and the Eichel trade are not comparable.

Jt miller is currently tied with Nylander for points per game which would rank 3rd on the leafs.

He’s also averaging more short handed ice time than any top 6 forward on the leafs.

He’s an all round player who would easily fit in on either the matthews line or the Tavares line. This represents a significant upgrade for the leafs while actually saving total cap dollars vs kerfoot
