Thread: Just accept it at this point

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HatterTParty</b></div><div>For the exact reason I just gave you in the trade description. Vegas gave him away cuz they were desperate for cap. That doesn’t change his value. Meanwhile, Chicago, who’s defense is ungodly bad, has been at the heart of his poor displays. He’s still fleury though, and a playoff will pay that for a playoff run.</div></div>

It's a bad start for a 36, almost 37 year old goalie at a high cap hit. Team's will use everything that's happened since the offseason as leverage against Chicago so they'd have to at least retain to get anything of value imo. Which can't happen if they are to move Kaner & Toews like you do here with retention.

Thread: Just accept it at this point

Fleury was just traded to Chicago for nothing right after winning the Vezina. How does his value go up to a 1st rounder after the worst start to a season is his career

Thread: Im still mad about this

Mad about passing up on a future 1C level player for another future 1C player who was the consensus higher ranked and higher skilled prospect?

I get that he's not an absolute burner and is short but both those things hardly effect his game. He's still got good defensive instincts, faceoff ability, is fantastic on his edges and strong on his skates and can move it when he wants to. He's also got the higher offensive upside imo

Minnesota would never do that

Who even has interest in trading for Mailloux at this point?

Detroit is not giving you free cap relief

Larkin won't get moved, that's not enough to pry him from Detroit, especially with 50% retention and on top of that Minnesota will be just fine at center with some patience

Hard no. Khusnutdinov always was and always will be a steal. Currently on pace to be have the 6th best P/GP among 19 year old KHLers ever and it's not a shock either imo

Definitely not over these guys. He's a great Dman in his own right but I think his offensive numbers (most notably his SH%) take a dip and he's far from a shutdown Dman

I think I'd you want Chychrun in there that's fine, however I personally prefer Toews and he's already played with Makar

Thread: My lineups part 15

I'm still curious as to why the buyouts were such a bad idea.

Suter needs to be carried defensively and Parise lost his scoring touch last year. Both are still good players in their own right, but at their caphits were a liability. This made it easier to replace them. You get some similar guys for shorter term than Parise/Suter and ease in the young guys.

Trading them was a great way to screw the franchise over. Not only were they likey gonna cost a fortune to move, but cap-recapture (which only went away as a possibility by buying them out) could have killed the team. And I believe it was a fair possibility that if traded, Suter specifically, may have retired early, costing the team a massive recapture penalty.

There was never a pretty way to go about handling their contracts and this was far from the worst way to do it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>I'm always amazed at how many people think Boldy is a center.</div></div>

They don't do enough research and still want to state their opinion. So when they see him listed as a center on here, that's what he must be!

Based on who I think is better

Gaudreau
Hall
Pacioretty

Thread: Worst case scenario for Flames

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xertalz</b></div><div>people heavily overvalue prospects, especially goalies. Wallstedt probably has an equal chance at being a superstar goalie as he does being a backup his whole career or not even making the league. When you can get a proven fringe #1 center and a 2nd for that, you take it. If you're trying to win.</div></div>

The Wild aren't going for a cup right now so that's unwise and I definitely have to disagree with how likely Wallstedt is to be a stud or not. He played in imo the 3rd best league in hockey as a draft year goalie. We've never seen a tendie with as big of a role as Wallstedt. And it's not like he played bad at all either. He played quite well and has a really high upside.

Monahan; imo, is an overpaid, average 2C. So the contention argument doesn't make as much sense to me. Plus, the Wild have a very difficult cap situation coming up.
