ARMCHAIR-GM TEAMS

Forum: Armchair-GM8 hours ago

Thread: Post camp lines

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DeadWingsv2</b></div><div>I think it really comes down to "learning to be a pro". Personally, I think it's a bad idea to have 18-20 year olds in the NHL, as I don't think they're mature enough, mentally, to handle that life, responsibility or pressure yet.

EDIT - Before anyone even points it out, Seider will be 21 before the season is over, has already been playing in pro leagues for a couple years and has a head on him unlike most 20 year olds. In other words, he is the exception to the rule.</div></div>

Lucas Raymond has been playing professionaly against men for two full seasons.

Thread: Balanced scoring sprinkles in youth - A pipe dream I know

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bannedforlife</b></div><div>Vrana - Larkin - Zadina
Fabbri - Suter - Bertuzzi
Berggren - Veleno - Raymond
Rasmussen - Stephens - Erne
Smith - Namestnikov

DeKeyser - Hronek
Leddy - Seider
Staal - Stetcher
Oesterle - Lidstrom</div></div>

Berggren doesn't play the left side and Raymond is better on the left so swap those two and you're spot on.

Thread: The Wings are probably a true playoffs contender now

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>villenash</b></div><div>If the defensive prospects pan out, that could be one of the best home-grown defenses in the league. Reminds me of NSH from a few years ago.

Edvinsson - Seider
Wallinder - Hronek
McIsaac - Lindstrom

Really exciting future on defense.</div></div>

Albert Johansson is currently just as good as Edvinsson is and he's much, much better than Wallinder.

Thread: goalie options

Detroit only have two retention slots and 5 players on expiring contracts they may need to trade at the deadline. There's no way we're going to trade away a retention slot that we need ourselves.

Forum: Armchair-GMThu at 1:14 am

Thread: Tarasanko mediator

Detroit declines.

Losing a retention spot for two years for only a late 2nd is an absolutely no way when we have 5 players on expiring contracts that may have to be traded at the deadline. Leaving us with only one retention slot would be a disaster during trade talks at the deadline.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed at 10:30 am

Thread: Finally getting EK65 a cup

Buying a retention slot for 6 years will be expensive. Very, very expensive.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed at 10:25 am

Thread: Whats the value

If you make that offer at the trade deadline and Fabbri isn't already resigned then you have a deal.

Before the season even started it's a no.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed at 8:54 am

Thread: Eichel to MIN

Detroit declines. We already have 8 defenders for next season.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed at 8:52 am

Thread: Tampa TDL moves

Detroit only have two retention slots and they need them for their own players. They are not going to give one up for a mere 4th.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed at 8:50 am

Thread: Tampa goes mentally insane at TD

Detroit only have two retention slots and they need them for their own players. They will not give one up for only a 4th.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed at 8:47 am

Thread: Whoa the McDonagh buyout works out beautifully

Detroit declines.

You're not getting a top-6 player, with retention, for a 19 year old kid who haven't played hockey in over a year.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 20 at 6:47

Thread: Technically possible btw

A 3rd round pick isn't going to get you both a retention and buy two years of cap dump and Stienburg isn't going to get you Fabbri.

Thread: On Brand TDL Targets

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>UpsideDownQue</b></div><div>Value wise Stecher is probably worth a 3rd and Namestnikov probably worth a 4th. Avs dont have a 4th though so they would have to make up the value some other way. I dont think the Avs would move any of their waiver exempt prospects except for Henry, Clurman, and Keaton, but other non-waiver exempt guys and reserve list players could be on the table

probably 3rd + lower level prospect for Stecher + Namestnikov if Sakic was to go after both of them</div></div>

That's strange - You have Namestnikov playing 2nd line on your roster.

If you don't want to pay for a 2nd-liner how can you expect to get one?

Stecher and Namestnikov will, of course, be sold to the highest bidder if they are to be sold at all. I guess it won't be to Denver.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 17 at 1:46

Thread: On Brand TDL Targets

What are you offering for Stecher and Namestnikov? Detroit wants waiver exempt prospects back.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 17 at 1:39

Thread: Canadians

Detroit have no roster spots open for defenders. Come back at the TDL.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 17 at 10:35

Thread: Sharks rebuild year one

I'd love to see Hertl in Detroit but not if we have to give up Johansson. If you make it Eemil Viro or McIsaac instead no problem.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 16 at 2:56

Thread: Three-Peat

Detroit will take Somppi, Raddysh, and Katchouk off your hands for a fair price so you don't lose them on waivers for absolutely nothing.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 16 at 5:30

Thread: If they are hurt long term

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>You don't need to pay that much for Stetcher but I'll take it.</div></div>

It's not much.

The pick is a late 3rd rounder, Der-Arguchintsev is a B-prospect, and the rest are wash-outs.

This trade would also make Detroit a weaker team this season and maybe for longer.

Thread: Namestnikov to PIT

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sonnnk</b></div><div>a third round pick (what they will get at the deadline) and a roster player they can use and flip at deadline for a 4th for a team wanting depth for playoff run.</div></div>

Namestnikov will get a 2nd at the deadline if a contender needs him.

The trade you proposed makes us a worse team this season and in the future.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 15 at 11:42

Thread: Big Change

Detroit declines.

Thread: Namestnikov to PIT

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sonnnk</b></div><div>Idk what your smoking to ask for all that</div></div>

Please tell me why Detroit should accept a trade they gain absolutely nothing from?

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 15 at 11:37

Thread: Namestnikov to PIT

Rodrigues is of no use to Detroit.

If you want Namestnikov before the trade deadline you need to offer us something that makes us better, either immediately or in the future. Hållander or Légaré in combination with Clang and we'll listen.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 15 at 8:14

Thread: More Ideas

I don't like you using up all the retention slots when we have players like Leddy and Greiss that are much more expensive and may have to be traded at the deadline.

I especially don't like it when all you get back are Engvall and Komarov, players that never will be top-9 on the team when Berggren and Raymond are ready.

Another reason I don't like those trades is that there's a waiver season coming up in just a few weeks with players like, from Tampa, Raddysh, Katchouk, and Somppi as possible targets to be had for nothing and several more interesting players that other teams are unable to keep.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 12 at 9:29

Thread: Trade Deadline

Detroit cannot retain on three trades, we already have Pánik and only three retentions are allowed.

The washington trade doesn't make sense for Detroit due to him being signed another year and with the salary retention on Namestnikov the price should be higher.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 12 at 7:14

Thread: Is Larkin for sale

Chytil + Kravtsov + Lundkvist would be much more interesting.

Strome is a rental and Jones is a LD of which we have more than half a dozen good prospects.
