Thread: My Deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BleedOrange23</b></div><div>So the Laughton deal is fine. The deal with the Oilers is way light. To buyout Campbell would add a min cap hit of $1.5m for the next 6 years. Holloway is interesting but hasn't proven anything at the NHL or AHL. I would say Peterson has to be going back in this deal and EDM would need to throw in more (especially if they aren't taking Peterson. The Krebs deal doesn't make a ton of sense to me, yes they want a project but I doubt they want to give up picks for him.</div></div>

I must be higher on Holloway and Broberg than you are. Think Holloway still projects as a Jordan Staal type. And Broberg is a big body that I think Torts and staff could turn pretty quickly. Krebs deal would be like the Newhook deal but slightly cheaper. Just Think they need to weaponize the cap space before the cap goes up so three A-/B+ assets is enough for me to eat Campbell.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>You're acting like Eichel was a healthy player in his prime that Buffalo elected to sell out of the goodness of their hearts to see him succeed elsewhere. Eichel had a reputation as a locker room cancer, a 7 figure contract, and a very public drawn out battle with his organization over a treatment course for a spinal issue which was seriously affecting his game at the time. Buffalo had lost any semblance of leverage and Vegas was taking a huge risk that Eichel wouldn't return to peak form.

TL: DR, using Eichel as a trade comparable is asinine because it ignores the context under which Eichel was traded.</div></div>

You can try to talk yourself into that value for Zegras all you want, but there’s zero percent chance you get the return you think you should. Especially from Philly. Lol. Needs to work on the defense in his game and never cleared 65 points. Hes a 2C, not a superstar.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NickC1988</b></div><div>I don't think any of these deals would be accepted by the other team. Atkinson is a cap dump, hawks could just sign free agents to hit the floor or get paid to take bad contracts like they have been for the past 3 years. EDM can't afford to move Holloway as he's their best hope for a top 6 F prospect. The only way they move Campbell is if they retain at least $1.25M, and he's flipped with additional retention by the receiving team. Late 1st and Brink for Zegras is a lowball offer, they'll get something better. Don't think Risto is worth a 2nd and prospect either. Tough to evaluate with his injury history.</div></div>

I don’t think anyone takes Campbell unless it includes Holloway. So not sure it happens anyway. I think Andrae is getting a little disrespected for the value he has as a prospect in the Ducks deal though. I don’t think Risto is what the Flyers need, but his metrics have been above average in the sheltered role he’s played, plus GMs still get hot and bothered for guys with his build. I am tired of hearing the Flyers expect a 1st though for him. Same with Laughton. Brieres just leaning on the media to try to drive up value.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SlickWilly</b></div><div>I think Atkinson is an interesting case, similar to a Taylor Hall situation. Overpaid guy with skill who is potentially a cap dump, Hawks take him for free so Bedard doesnt get mental boomed playing with enforcers. Theres an argument to be made that if Hall isnt gonna be full force after this knee injury, Atkinson could be a good replacement. Decent points last season, decent pace this season. Not a whole lot going on in the FA market this year outside of the top guys. Only guys I would target would be Vrana, Zucker or Eberle, that would potentially be available on a shorter term. If Davidson doesnt feel theyre available, Atkinson could be an interesting pickup, assuming Nazar spends a year in the minors, Tyler Johnson walks, and if we dont get Celebrini our 1st this year doesnt join the roster. Something to consider, at the least, I feel</div></div>

Spot on to how I was thinking. Think he could be a skill guy and some experience for Bedard or Macklin.
