Thread: Saw on flyers end wanting to see what Canucks fans think

I love the idea with Couturier’s shutdown abilities. But 7yrs remaining after back surgery scares me. Granted, I have not seen him play in a long time. Curious how his skating is.
Interesting proposal though.

Too much insecurity with this deal. If Couturier can come back healthy, this is absolutely terrible for PHI. If he can't, then he spends a lot of time on LTIR and Philly would just prefer that. This offer would just never be on the table.

Couturier is a heck of a player, but that injury Hx is too much to deal with, as well as the fact that he has 7 years left after this, OEL only has 4

Sure they do but Ryan 0'Reilly is a 31 year old pending UFA who's off to a terrible start this year with 2 points and -12 in 11 games.

Thread: GHOST ON THE MOVE

I just barged in my mouth. I wouldn’t even give a 3rd for Ghost. We’re set a LD unless we can acquire a top 2 LHD that can play with Weber for years to come, Ghost is most definitely NOT that. He isn’t really good when he plays a lot of minutes and he’s basically a 3rd pairing PP specialist. Would much rather play Romanov. We don’t have a big need for LHD rn i like most claim. Please stop linking Ghost and MTL, it won’t happen.

The issue isn't about who's better (it's marner) but who's going to be better. Marner is improving and gaudreau is probably done getting better and seems to be tailing off honestly. I would do this trade with nylander instead if you changed the picks.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsFan9</b></div><div>ok, then. You can keep his contract</div></div>

Sigh...JG is not better than MM and your idea of a first and Mitch for JG is absolutely ludicrous.

Besides this trade would never happen because it doesn't address any of our needs. Is the contract bad? Yep but doing this wouldn't help at all.

Fleury would just retire if this happened

Thread: The Golden fix

This could work. It’s obvious that both Gustavsson and Søgaard need time to develop, so Fleury as a bona fide short term bridge guy seems ok. Besides, sens are one of the only teams who can comfortably take his cap.
For VGK, it’s essentially a cap dump. Fleury doesn’t have much term left and is hella expensive, so dumping him on a team in need of a starter makes a lot of sense. Daccord helps their bare goalie prospect pool, and the third evens out the value.
Just hypothetically, does anyone see CGY taking a swing at Fleury? They’re always mentioned in goalie trade rumours.

Ya I get that I was just saying Fleury didn't post it, but I think it'd be smart for Vegas to stay with Lehner and trade Fleury in the offseason and help their line-up even more. They don't need two goalies that skilled. That being said IDK if this is the assets they would want back. They need a 3C (no AA is not a C) watched him enough as a Red Wing he's a better winger. Also, if they traded away Fleury it'd be a clear sign they'd want to stick with Lehner so no need for Koskinen. A top 4 LD could help them as well I think. Bare this in mind I'm a Red Wings fan and haven't watched many Vegas games so this is just going off player knowledge and stats so my team needs for Vegas could be way off base!

So, I was going to say a bunch of stuff about this trade...but then I saw that the Leafs were 6 million dollars deep in cap poop. That pretty much sums it up
