Thread: This team needs a rebuild

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>An equivalent for Girard is Hronek who was just traded for a 1st and 2nd, Olausson was a recent 1st, and you want to include another 1st, hence 3 1st rd picks and a 2nd. You trade that haul you aren’t doing it for a rental and YES Scheifle is a rental in COL. Tell me why doesn’t COL just sign ROR for 3x7 and save all the assets because that makes a lot more sense than the proposed nonsense.</div></div>

Maybe because O'Reilly isnt as good and may not want to go back there.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>So you think COL is going to pay the equivalent of 3 1st rd picks and a 2nd for a rental? Yeah that isn’t happening.</div></div>

They paid two 1st for Lekonen. Don't know where you are getting that 2nd from. Also just because a player has 1 year left, doesnt make it a rental because they do have the ability to resign

I wouldnt do these moves either but im not the canucks. I wouldn't trade 9th overall for OEL either. But the canucks love screwing themselves

Olofsson is a cap dump is quite the hot take. 28 goals and 40 points for 4 million is pretty good. If you would like the sabres to retain im sure they are willing

The little green arrow disagrees. I wouldn't say they are "so done" with him. Hes shown good flashes and bad flashes. Hopefully in the offseason they can coach that out of him. Would I be surprised if hes moved? No. Would I be surprised if hes dumped? Yes.

I disagree. More balanced bottom 6 + development from good prospects. We don't have to do anything huge to get better.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>If you think he's actually gonna hit his potential, don't trade him. There's your safety net.
Not adding a conditional 1st, or even a 2nd, on to Greenway just because you want to focus on Greenway's one down year of the last four. Guarantee we can get a better offer elsewhere than a third line center, especially if we're adding conditional 1sts.</div></div>

You wouldn't be giving a 1st round pick for a 3rd line center because 3rd line centers don't get 65 points. Not to mention lets say he only hits 60. You trade a 2nd and a guy playing his way out of your lineup for 60 points. And we trade him because we have enough skill in our top 6.

Thread: Keep building

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caerii</b></div><div>No chance in hell you're getting a conditional 1st for Mittelstadt, let alone on top of Greenway.</div></div>

This year:
Greenway: 31-2-4-6
Mittelstadt: 50-7-21-28

And the condition most would say is way out of reach. Are you saying you wouldn't give up a 1st for a young 2nd line center that give you 65 points? You are insane to turn that down. Most teams spend more for a rental. The condition is a safety net if he actually hits his potential.

You can resign Olofsson. Mitts is on pace for 50 points and he would have an opportunity for 2C depending on moves. You can sign Portillo. And again he is more a placeholder for the cap then an actual trade for the player. Just playing with the new shiny toy

I wanted to see how much cap space we have when looking at the team long term. Overestimating is always better then underestimating. And its not necessarily about the players, but rather the money that would go into those spots while again overestimating.

Kulich, Ostlund, Portillo, Mitts/olofsson, 1st round picks. Plenty still there. Im also not saying we trade for him, hes just the new shiny toy sabres fans are getting their hopes up about and probably won't get.
