Thread: Connor Center
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bunzy1034</b></div><div>I think the Copp, Perrault, and wheeler should be the only guys shifting to center.</div></div>

Copp. Copp plays a possession style game. Excels at cycle and roll down deep. Neither Ehlers nor Laine play that style of game yet. Yet to see a one player cycle work.
Perreault. Not going to be around for much longer at salary at depth position on the team.
Wheeler. Performed admirably at Center... though would breakdown too fast if had to play that position for a sustained period of time. Likely never see that again.
Little. Little has played his best with powerful wingers.(Wheeler, Ladd). Hangs back in offensive zone. Unfortunately so does Laine. 2 Fwds hanging back in the offensive zone too easy for opposition to breakout.
Roslovic. Waiting and waiting and waiting. Would like to see offensively.. though has struggled at getting puck out of def zone when at Center. Seems to get hemmed in. Think why he is spending so much time on wing. Hopefully learning.

Thread: 16/17 - Trouba, Rieder & TDL

Which is why the Flyers would have to add something to the trade. I am not saying MDZ = Trouba.</i></div></div>

Both of you have been posting this for weeks. Think it needs explaining why you are getting no traction.
MDZ in his prime now. Played best season. Can play him powerplay though likely needs protected minutes on 5v5. Wpg is looking for a #1 Left side D man. For 22-24min against competitions best. Summation Wpg would be doing Philly a favour. Then you add a second round likely 15-20% chance to make NHL let alone be of top value in 4-5 yrs and only 1 good prospect Dman who is likely 2-3 full seasons from trying to play top minutes.
In closing You would be willing to trade S.Gostisbehere for T.Enstrom (2M cap retention) and 2nd Rd draft pick and Morrissey. How about Wpg just offer that and look to trade Trouba elsewhere for value.
Both of you have been pitching this for weeks. Try again.

Thread: Making trouba work

But that is what it takes to land a number one defenceman.
Otherwise you overpay a UFA for a serviceable year or two then live with the remainder of the contract.
Top pairing young Def. value has been set in the market place. Det. Lacks the LHD value in an even up trade of age and value and lacks the Johanson or Hall proven top line forwards so #1 prospects would need to be added to the trade. Andreas Athanasiou or Anthony Mantha with (Tatar and Smith) or (Dekyser).
Wpg is not in a position that Trouba has to be moved...Wpg has 4 more years of retaining Trouba's rights. By then his value will have decreased enough to accept the trade without AA or AM.
Step up to the game show of the (Trouba) Price is Right or watch from the back row seats. There has been a lot of Holland bashing on this sight though no Det. Fans have stepped up either with proper value. The job is tougher when value has to go back the other way.

Thread: Standing Pat
You are talking all rhetoric. I showed you data of the offence ability of Wheeler and Scheifele together. You deny this and then later say all about pushing offence??? I don't follow your thoughts because you are defending the original quote. So I will close with this. The BEST LINES are &lt;60% possession. Meaning 40+% of the time they are playing without the puck. That is defending. You refer to Penguins as your proof. Penguins wins when they put Crosby, Malkin, Kessel together or in combinations not well. Instead they spread the offence through there lines so teams can not expose any one line. Because of depth scoring they preservere and wins begin to pile up because of consistency. Not by stacking anyone line. Why is this important. Because odds are only 50% of your games you get last change. The game within the game. JrGM...RookieCoach.
