Thread: Kane and Kadri third line

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CJets</b></div><div>Kadri is asking for a long term contract worth $9m per year, no way he’s gonna sign that</div></div>

I personally believe he should take 750k x 8 with the Coyotes

Thread: Dallas gets their Klingberg replacement

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Why would Edmonton make this trade? It makes their roster much worse.</div></div>

Hakanpää would be a better partner for Broberg's development and Bouchard looks ready to take the next step as Powerplay #1 QB

Thread: Dallas gets their Klingberg replacement

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>Dallas got their Klingberg replacement in Colin Miller...</div></div>

Miller had had 1 season where he was at least half a point per game player and that was in 2017-18. Klingberg and Barrie are in a different tier of offensive puckmovers

What if Foegele was removed?

Thread: Klingberg

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Pensman69</b></div><div>Ain’t getting Klingberg for that low on a 1 year deal</div></div>

Market has dried up and he gets another shot at FA next year. Either gets to run a Powerplay on a competitive team or gets sold as a rental at the deadline to a contender.

Where is a better team that could offer more money and a better role than 5M x 1?

The entire blueline market looking thin but LD especially.

Thread: Kane for Brisson 2 1sts Dadonov and Brossoit for salary reasons

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>20 man roster won't work.

I would also switch kane and stone in the lines</div></div>

I mean it might with Henderson so close by. But you are right because a few injuries deep and they would be playing short handed.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MellowK</b></div><div>I could definitely see Kane being another shiny thing that Vegas goes after if he's willing to waive.

Cap definitely doesn't work though, they'll need to move out a decent amount more money. 20 man roster and it'll definitely take more than that to re-sign Roy. Hague has also just vanished here.</div></div>

Cap definitely does not work. IRL They need to shed salary just to get 12 F 6D

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aedoran</b></div><div>Detroit declines. Detroit doesn't need any wingers at this point and they aren't giving up a 2nd for a winger that has never hit the 20g mark.</div></div>

Thread: Giving Kravtsov a real role

One would hope. Both teams going in opposite directions standings wise.

Thread: A lafreniere trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TrueCanuck</b></div><div>Rangers pass.

Start talking Toffoli and Lafreniere in the same deal and you'll get further. It fits both teams needs better - you haven't offered anything to New York of value or of skill really.</div></div>

In what world is Toffoli a core piece for a Laf trade?

Thread: They Need Nemec

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>christianyog</b></div><div>If we continue to play the way we are then win a lottery pick, 100% we will take Nemec.

I do agree, he is exactly what we need. A true No. 1 right-shot defenseman who plays a well-rounded game. If the draft were to happen now, Winnipeg would have to make a trade to select him. I currently have Nemec at 6th in my custom draft rankings but we will see what happens.

My draft rankings are here: https://www.capfriendly.com/mock-draft/202728</div></div>

Hey man this is great stuff, I enjoy the player comparisons next to each prospect!

Thread: Struggling winger swap

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oilersguy</b></div><div>no way, Benson is 2 years younger and from Edmonton and is an actual NHL not AHL player</div></div>

He's not producing, it doesn't matter where he is born I think both players can benefit from a change of scenery.

Thread: Slight reload no Giroux

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DH28Hockey</b></div><div>Love Nemec as a prospect but I don't think he's NHL ready next season</div></div>

He has the highest NHL Equivalency of any first year draft eligible defender the last 20 years since Ryan Ellis who also happens to be on the team. You might be right, he does need a year in the AHL but he could also impress in camp.

Thread: Kessel

Minny has been playing so well that I'd be reluctant to make any moves. That being said, Boldy is currently the 2nd line RW so do you value Boldy's growth or the veteran experience of Kessel?

I totally agree, that's what I'm trying to make this guy understand. Until it's publicly announced we won't know for certain.
