Thread: 3 way wOttawa and Buffalo
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>You're very wrong on Pominville and Guhle and Pominville wouldn't be taking Callahan's spot. Tampa has 2 top 4 LHD already signed for a long time, Guhle, as you said is top 4 at best (he's definitely a top 4 dman), would be locked into a bottom pair role anyway with rfa control for 5 more years.</div></div>

Actually, you're pretty wrong on both. &amp; I'm willing to bet that your a bias Sabres fan. Pominville is at best an average defender. He's more of an offensive guy. Callahan is one of Tampa's key PK guys that plays physical, that's not Pominville's game. &amp; Pominwille would probably be playing 4th line RW as Joseph plays 3rd line RW and the 4RW is Callahan's spot so he's literally taking his spot and not providing the same role.

&amp; again, you're wrong on Guhle. he may be a top 4 in the future, that's not a lock. if there was a better chance, he'd be in the NHL already on a consistent basis. He's not a lock for any spot on Tampa with Hedman, McDonagh, and Sergachev already on the left side, sure one of them can play the right side, but it doesn't make sense to play one of them on their off side when they already have Stralman and Cernak in the top 4 on the right side.

All this does for Tampa is clear cap space when they don't need to yet. They can move Miller, or Killorn, or Johnson or someone at the draft and get much better value cause there will be more teams bidding on them.

so again, you're not making any sense. Tampa declines with ease as I've said all along. Please stop replying now. You're wasting my time trying to prove your bias, untrue facts.

Thread: Saddle up pt 1
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BStockHockey</b></div><div>... I like the CAR deal but Canucks fans need to realize that to get rid of Eriksson's bad contract you have to take on those other bad contracts &amp; won't get the draft picks coming back the other way ... probably just better to keep him at this point</div></div>

I agree with you about taking on a bad contract to get rid of a bad contract. Would it make sense for Edmonton &amp; Vancouver to do a deal like Lucic for Eriksson straight up? For Edmonton they are lose a year of a bad contract and Vancouver gets a hometown guy who adds some physicality to the lineup. Maybe Edmonton takes on $1M of Lucic's contract because Vancouver is taking the worse of the contracts. Just a thought.

I really like the Carolina deal. I think it works perfectly for both teams and fills needs for both teams. Well done!!
