Thread: A realisitic offer for Jaccob Slavin
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Slavin is a LHD, not a RHD. But you need to look closer at this, Aho and Teuvo aren't "goal scorers" and Svechnikov is a rookie. Anderson in Columbus had 40 goals, does this suddenly make him more valuable than Slavin too? No, 1 year means nothing, especially on a line with Kane and Schmaltz/Strome</div></div>

No theyre not, but using your argument they have below average shots? You mean Atkinson? He's always had about 25-30 goals on an offense starved blue jackets team and when he finally got some good forwards (PLD, Panarin, and Duchene for a short while) since 2016 he had a 35 goal season, 24 goal season (in 65 games he would have EASILY made it to 30 and scored more), and a 41 goals last season Considering he has a resume of consistent goal scoring that makes him very valuable and one of their best players so yeah he alone could get slavin but they dont need defense so the trade wouldnt happen.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Slavin was eliminated in 4 games in round 3 and was 3 points behind Pietrangelo, who set the record for points in the playoffs by a D man, Slavin is a top 10 D man, and almost anyone with an above average shot had 40 goals last year, Cal CLutterbuck had 20 ffs, I would need to see him do it again before I'd give him the edge in value. Slavin does his thing, and he's been doing it forever. Slavin is on a STEAL of a contract that lasts until the end of time....</div></div>

So if "anyone" with an above average shot can get 40 goals then how come Aho only had 30? And how come Teuvo and Svech only had 20? Guess they must have below average shots. 40 goals is no joke and downplaying it by saying someone else got half that one time is just downright buffoonery. I never said I didnt believe him to be a top 10 rhd. He is that good, but Debrincat one of the top wingers.
