Thread: Few Deals before Xmas
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mikearky</b></div><div>So a cap dump of over twice what he makes and more than what he will get in his next deal( he is a rfa) and a 3rd sounds good to you. Yes, he is having a slow start, I agree, but you forget two things. One his team is depleted of alot of the players he had last year and two why does Columbus need a defenseman, they need forwards.</div></div>

gotta chime in here, lol. Sutter is a forward... not a defense man (unless it was edited). is the trade fair? no.... given anderson is younger and has more upside i think VAN would have to add... i think Baertschi might be a good fit for Columbus looking for top 6 talent.

and Ottawa is paying next to nothing for those 2 guys on LTIR insurance covers it, given their reputation, no way they give that up for an over paid player like eriksson.

Thread: Mantha
As a Detroit fan I can say Mantha is untouchable especially if they move AA. Mantha, Larkin, Bertuzzi and Hronek are untouchable, AA's slow start has moved him off that list but I wouldn't except even AA to get moved until the TDL. For arguments sake take out Baertschi Detroit has enough underperforming vets. Juolevi, Demko, a 1st throw in a RW prospect like Lockwood it might do it The value is tilted toward Detroit but I don't think Mantha gets moved for less. Like Canucks1 said he is a top line forward but a few games in to the season Detroit was forced to juggle lines because the first line was the only that was scoring. Everyone knew Detroit was going to be really bad this season it is part of the process and Yzerman isn't going to overreact and sell his most promising players below their value.

Thread: Swap of bubble player prospects
Goldobin is just turning into a player capable of playing a 2 way game after 3 years Pro.
he's trending in the right Direction at the same time VAN is so i see no reason to move him out now .

Tolvanen unlike Goldobin is playing with a higher level of expectations but is having issues adjusting to the much faster Small Ice Surface. He will in time like Goldobin adjust but it will take another 1-2 years of steady progress . VAN is better off right now with their player as NSH is better off with their's based on where their teams are.

Virtanen on the other hand hasnt progressed but declined since his rookie season as an overall 2 way player earning his ice time as a Physical net front presence becoming a steady 10-15 goal scorer.You could still do something with Virtanen but why bother when you can move him out to a playoff team looking for depth goal scorers like Virtanen for their 3rd line and VAN could re-coop a 1st in the deal

Thread: Something Something Playoffs Something
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Canucks1</b></div><div>So the Canucks have to retain on Eriksson and sutter but take Lucic who has a longer contract and a NMC in exchange, and all we get is a 3rd and junk prospects?

Yeah no thanks</div></div>

Point taken, I changed it and thrown in players who aren't signing with either team.

Although, I would not call Cave or Marino junk prospects. Cave played 20 or more NHL games with 2 NHL teams last year. He is no longer a prospect, really.

Marino is actually a decent RHD prospect, but played behind Adam Fox, who will be a star with the Rangers. Marino has been compared to Jeff Petry in Oilers circles. His coach counts on him in important defensive situations, so he will never put up big stats at Harvard.

I hope he signs with the Oilers next year.
