Thread: Got our C and RD
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Billy739</b></div><div>We're ok with trading him just not for Timmons
If we're making this deal we want a potential #1 RD who's still young
Give me Soderberg and i'll make this deal as he's superior to Ghule (as good as he is)

Dvorak and Soderberg
for
Lehkonen
Ylonen's rights(Top AHL Winger Prospect ARZ born his dad played there 5 years)
Ghule
Primeau (Top Goalie Prospect still 21 i think and lead Laval to its best seasons since Price was in the AHL)
2nd round pick - Conditional pick becomes a 1st if Soderberg plays 50% or more games in 2021-22
5th round pick - Conditional becomes a 2nd if Soderberg plays 50% or more playoff games in 2021-22

NHL Ready:
Lehkonen - They can play or trade him and there's value either way

Prospects:
They get a Winger with a strong work ethic, Starting Goalie Prospect and Future top 4 LD

Picks:
If Soderberg busts out they have a 1st and a 2nd coming there way
If he stays to develop in Europe or the AHL then its a 2nd and a 5th

Bill Armstrong is stock piling picks and prospects
Taking on players to fill out his roster while he sells all its assets
I think Chycrn and Keller are the only untouchables at this point
Given Armstrong was more successful then anyone else including Trevor Timmons when it came to the draft
I'd expect to see a short rebuild process as he nails quality all the way into thedepth rounds (Parayko ,Dunn, Binnington, Kyrou,ext)</div></div>

I'm assuming you meant Victor Soderstrom not Soderberg. Solid deal if so.

Thread: habs Eichel
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OlegP</b></div><div>Add Romanov and Guhle for me. No go. Montreal needs puck movers and goal scorers. Eichel is not going to make the Habs better especially considering the return cost. No point being another Buffalo. Eichel is supposed to be an add. Listening to sabres fans you'd think they demanded to trade teams</div></div>

I agree entirely. Jack Eichel is a franchise cornerstone player but as Buffalo has shown thus far, a franchise caliber player requires an at least decent team. Losing Suzuki, KK, or Caufield in a trade for Eichel just doesn't work. Sure we get a great player, but at what cost. If Buffalo would consider Romanov, Guhle, a player like Armia/Byron/Lehkonen, and a couple high picks as a legitimate offer, then this would make sense, but with the current offers on the table, it just wont work.

Thread: Draft as it happens
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>Big winners: Detroit, Columbus, Boston

Big Losers: Montreal, Edmonton


As a Sens fan, I'm skeptical, but can see the appeal of Boucher's skillset. Big mean power guy who skates really well and has shooting instincts. If he pans out as they hope, could be a Josh Anderson type.


I REALLY hope Ottawa can land Aatu Raty in the 2nd round. Isn't the 1st overall guy he looked like prior to his draft Year, but if you get him back on track, he could be the steal of the draft.</div></div>

I really don't think Montreal should be considered losers. Of course I'm biased and overcompensating because it's not the pick I would've made but with that said, this was a big PR move to show the league and fans that they believe in second chances and they picked a player who was projected by lots of pro scouts to go in that range. Also, how on Earth are Ottawa, Dallas, and New Jersey not losers for their swings at 3rd-5th round players?
