ARMCHAIR-GM TEAMS

Forum: Armchair-GM24 hours ago

Thread: Blues assuming CBO

Also not allowed to buy someone out and sign them I think for a year or at least until January 1st.

Thread: Pavel Datsyuk in his prime was better than Ovi in his prime change my mind

I love Datsyuk, but Ovi could possibly score the most goals in NHL history. Think about that.

Thread: Prepping for the final years

Panik just had a terrible first like 15 games, after that he's been on a 40 point pace. He's very good and we should keep him.

Not paying that much for Bernier or Manson. People need to jump off the Manson train, he's not that good.

Also let Gudas and Dillon walk. They are too old and we have amazing D talent coming up.

Thread: Rebuild

Don't think SJS has to add anything to move Karlsson. They'd get something good for him. MAYBE have to eat a little but the return would still be real good.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri at 4:27 pm

Thread: Kirill Kaprizov

MIN should trade Kaprisov to the Caps for a 7th round pick. It's fair.

Forum: Armchair-GMThu at 4:09 pm

Thread: Would you do it

If for some reason this happened it would probably be a straight up swap. Don't think BOS would add more then McAvoy. Maybe a bit more b/c TOR is eating cash.

Forum: Armchair-GMThu at 4:07 pm

Thread: CAPS 2020-21

Didn't Allen have a great season? Think STL could do better in a return. Think we need to keep Johansen for another season hope to goodness he stays healthy then try to flip him next summer for something.

Same with ARI, they can get more for Demers probably.

Man, people are going nuts out there.

This def wasn't made by a Caps fan.

Good defense weak offense.

Thread: So eichel

The VGK trade is more unrealistic.

Thread: Part 2 - 2020-2021 Pittsburgh Penguins- 85m Cap - AfTeR WHAT WE SHOULDVE DONE

ANA and LA say no.

Thread: Having fun

Don't understand the FLA trade. Why are we paying so much for a 3rd liner?

And I know this is for fun but OTT obviously says no.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar 23 at 2:39

Thread: playoff lines

Would be a shame if the season is cancelled.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar 23 at 2:02

Thread: Caps Forever

Poolman is bad at hockey. Don't need him. Jensen is much better.

Ovi and Samsonov won't cost that much.

Caps should definitely not trade Siegenthaler. Beast top 4 defensive defensemen that's young and cheap. He's better than Kempny.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar 23 at 10:08

Thread: SAN JOSE NEEDS TO REBUILD

This isn't a rebuild. Maybe a retooling, but not a rebuild. And NJD has Blackwood, they don't need a bad goalie on a bad contract.

Thread: Hornqvist

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MitchMarnerElite </b></div><div>I don’t think teams are willing to give up a stud defenseman for Marner.</div></div>

He isn't elite or anything but at least get Marino from PIT. He's better, cheaper, and younger than Gudas.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar 20 at 11:58

Thread: Hornqvist

PIT take that deal and runaway laughing. What a terrible trade for the leafs. If want a stud defensemen then trade Marner for one.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar 18 at 5:56

Thread: Looking at this team

Jensen has been playing really well the last 1-2 months. Doubt they move him now.

Thread: Lines with Barzal

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Edmonton got McDavid, Jones, Bear and Marino in that draft. It's not close.</div></div>

Just imagine if they grabbed Barzal too.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar 18 at 3:55

Thread: Lines with Barzal

Don't know who handled that draft worse: EDM or BOS with 3 picks right before Barzal.

Exactly. Very few on that last are top 6 or top 3 D players. I found Kunitz, Gionta, Schmidt, Krug, maybe Bozak and Iafallo. And this doesn't include the thousands of college players that haven't done jack squat over the last 20 years.

False. A NHL drafted player has a muuuuuch better chance of being a top 6 or top 3 D player than an undrafted college player. It's not even close. Every NHL draft you can find dozens of those guys. 1 out of like 500 college free agents become anything.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gregb569</b></div><div>Pittsburgh has a good track record of attracting + developing NCAA players..
There also has been a lot of NCAA players to go on and have very successful careers, idk where you guys are A) getting those #'s + B) making those assumptions.

There are TONS of draftees who never see an NHL game.</div></div>

Like we said, sure they become depth players, but rarely anything more. Go find a list of players that become top 6 forwards or top 3 defensemen. It's really rare. Even ZAR, who had freakn 63 points in 38 NCAA games his senior year has a total of 36 points in 116 NHL games. A scout once told me, if a guy isn't drafted it's usually for a reason. Of course there are always exceptions, but the chances a college free agent is more than a bottom 6 or bottom 3 D player are very very low.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>Don't get excited for college free agent signings until you see at least one pro season. 95% of those guys never become more than depth players.</div></div>

Exactly. It's rare they ever become anything of value. The best college UFA forward the last 20 years is Bozak and the best college defense UFA has been Schmidt. Super rare they become much of anything.
