Thread: Prospects with high chance of busting from each team

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Silkysmooth42</b></div><div>Lmao guys wtf is the deal here. Propeller is 100% correct and mhockey has no clue whats going on

Studnicka was a 2nd rounder, if he is even a 3rd or 2nd line guy he wont be a Bust so <a href="/users/Cdn_bacon" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Cdn_bacon</a> take Studnicka off of this list and put Senyshyn on 9obviously
Also Studnicka is literally projected to be a top 6 center (by like 99% of hockey websites) so yeah 1st or 2nd line is correct, NOT 2nd or 3rd like mhockey said

Why do these arguments happen, Im glad I can be here at least to dispel the argument and just point out once and for all who is right here

Again an opinion is an opinion as Propeller said, but no need to be rude about it or try to say someone else is wrong lmao mhockey</div></div>

No lol

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>Well, that’s why Yandle negotiated that no move clause. Of course he turns that down.

Side note, thats a ridiculously lopsided trade. Yandle has more value than James Neal by a long shot. Yandle for Neal 50% retained and a high pick? Maybe. But then again, yandle blocks it.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhockey91</b></div><div>Yeah I don’t see how this is fair at all. Yandle actually has some positive value, Neal on the other hand doesn’t. And the fact that FLA retain on Yandle??? Yeah right</div></div>

There's a lot of reasons to not play in Alberta but taxes aren't one of them.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ajp_18</b></div><div>It’s all good. Murray is a Top 4 LHD, I’d say Nuttivaara is too. That’s just how deep Columbus was on the blue line last year when fully healthy and why we could so easily move both of them this offseason.</div></div>

Peke probably earns a full time job making them THAT much deeper, it’s an underated blueline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ForsbergForVezina</b></div><div>Based on last season, I don't think Savard is really an upgrade on Cole. But even with Cole it's really, really good.

So yes and no would be my answer.</div></div>

I think you can get more out of Savard paired with Girard. On CBJ he's been given Murray and Nutivaara mostly. Plus Cole has been playing on his off-handed side.
