Thread: (OTT/VGK) - Stone for Brännström, Lindberg, 2nd round.
Allow me for my verbage in response to why I think Ottawa won this one, k. Firstly, you need to remember Stone's contract is coming due. Period. You also have to remember McPhee told Fleury, that Fleury was the most important player and was going to be paid as such, the 7.0, right. Stone's contract is currently at 7.35. O Lindberg, although a bottom 6, might fit in pretty good as solid forward? time will tell. Brannstrom, is currently a 19 y.o. defenseman with a .5 in the AHL, Chicago Wolves. Looking at that team, he's the number 8 scorer on the team. 2 more years left on his ELC. I'm going with Ottawa on this one, considering Stone most likely will want a payraise from 7.35 which means, Fleury etc might also want pay raises. Gotcha.

Thread: (OTT/CBJ) - Dzingel, 2019 7th for Duclair, 2020 2nd, 2021 2nd
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>drewjenks</b></div><div><strong>Ottawa still only has 7 picks and 1 first rounder in the 2019 draft .... </strong>

And if they tried to trade all 7 to Colorado for their 1st overall back .... Colorado would say no.

And this is after trading away <strong>Karlsson, Duchene, Hoffman, Dzingel, Brassard, Turris, Bowers, Wideman, Bergman, Dahlen and Lazar.</strong></div></div>

it's okay this next year n allow me to explain: they've selected previous defence besides Chabot, Lajoie, et others, they've selected forwards from around the leagues, if they only use their 1 first round and 2 second rounds, they'll be ahead of some other clubs rebuilds with half their payroll immediately avail. 7 in 019; 8 in 020 - 3 r 1st rounds; 9 in 2021;

Thread: (EDM/VAN) - Spooner for Gagner
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>YvanF</b></div><div>Obviously you've not updated yourself with his situation. Gagner fell out of favour with the Nucks and they were sitting him out most games until they simply demoted him to the ahl. Out of respect for the player, they allowed him to report to the ahl affiliate of the Leafs (Marlies) so that he could be closer to his wife (who's a doctor in Toronto).
Now with regards to "falling out of favour with the Nucks"... to me this doesn't say much because I continuously see coaches such as Boucher (favours Borowieki, Pyatt, Smith) in Ottawa, Hitch or even McLellan (Manning, Petrovic, Brodziak, Lucic, etc) for Edmonton as well as Green (Roussel, Beagle, Schaller, Gudbranson) in Vancouver continuously prefer to play heavy/grind it out type players reminiscent of 90's and 00's era hockey. These guys are idiots for not adapting to the new style and pace of play in the current nhl and their resulting standings speak volumes.</div></div>

okay I see but it doesn't explain if he was as good as people think he is and the way Dubas has been throwing money around and considering Dubas spends time watching Marlies this should have been a warning, since Dubas would have signed him immed.
