Pulock&gt; Rielly Defensively
NYI needs a 1st pair LD
TOR Needs a 1st pair RD
Cap hits and contract term is the same for both players.
Need for Need.
Makes sense for both teams to do.
Can't argue that.</div></div>
The islanders have their 1st pair LHD

Thread: Leafs - Isles
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HollywoodHudon</b></div><div>How is Pulock better? Best season was 3 yrs ago when he racked up 37 pts. Less than half a point a game. Same season he had his bets +/- year of + 21, the following year... +8 last year +15
Rielly has been .6 PPG or better for the past 4 years and has been a plus player for the past 3 - +24, +6, +11
How is Pulock "better"?
Both have the same cap hit, and both are expiring contracts at the end of this year. NYI needs help on the left side but has depth on the right. The Leafs have depth on the left and need help on the right.
Win-Win situation for both teams. 3 firsts and Rielly for Pulock? Good lord... SMH

As for moving Brodie to the left side... Why exactly? He may be a left shot, but he has played RD basically his entire career. And if he DID get moved to LD... who goes to the right? Dermott? please he is better off on LD where he is most comfortable, leave Brodie and his YEARS of experience "playing the wrong side" just where he is.</div></div>

Rielly can’t defend, he has one of the worst impacts in the league. Pulock has a top 15 defensive impact among all Dmen over the last 3 years.

Rielly is slightly better than Pulock offensively - points don’t tell the whole story, Rielly plays with much better finishers. Overall Pulock has been the better defenseman over the past two seasons.

Thread: Now or he leaves for nothing next year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>I respect jfresh as he generally knows what he's talking about stats wise but he usually gets his info from evolving hockey so those WAR numbers dont really make sense
<img class="for_img" src="https://i.imgur.com/lV7t91D.png" alt="lV7t91D.png">

Im not trying to argue that Dube is better or anything, just he is the most comparable player on Calgary.</div></div>

It is not based on Patrick Bacons info? No, I get that, but you also said Wahlstrom was marginally better, I dont agree at all, thats it. And numbers back that up, Dubé had an solid season this year, but compared to Wahlstrom much lower WAR and compared to their rookie seasons its night and day - you have to expect some solid development in Wahlstroms game, combined with increased QOT and TOI.

And if you dont believe the stats I previously showed for, feel free to look it up yourself from his Patreon. Because I literally wrote down what his models showed. :)

Thread: Now or he leaves for nothing next year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Here's how I see it, Lou doesnt trade for players he doesnt think he can extend (unless they are depth guys that can be replaced), 2 years in a row Lou gave up pretty big packages for some really solid players, none of those players were Gaudreau level good though. So a package like Wahlstrom + a 1st would have to be the base at least for Gaudreau IMO (again assuming extension since its Lou). Flames wouldnt do that though as it really doesnt help them

Wahlstrom is a solid young player but he's more of a 2nd or 3rd line guy, kinda like Dube for us</div></div>

I agreed on everything you said until your last sentence haha. No man, Wahlstrom is not a 3rd line guy and don’t compare him to Dillon Dubé please. If you think so, please do some research on Wahlstrom. All good!

Thread: New York Islanders signed Adam Pelech (8 Years / $5,750,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ColonelX</b></div><div>This year's a good year to be an expiring defenseman. Esa Lindell has more offense than Plech yet most complain it's not a great contract.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Joe_La_Garnotte</b></div><div>Looking at comments, I guess I didn't pay enough attention to NYI, that's a steep price for a defensive D man</div></div>
Pelech is not just a defensive defenseman. He can drive offense at a high level.
