Thread: Trades Trades and maybe another trade not sure
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>Ok the value to dump Nemeth might be accurate, however Montreal is not in need of draft picks. We already have 23 over the next 2 drafts with 33 out of 50 contracts to sign. We have 15 FA's or RFA's to resign to fill out the Habs (3) and Rocket (10) roster spots. Of those FA's and RFA's we are definitely resigning Romanov, R Pitlick, Primeau, Schueneman, Pezzetta, Brook, Vejdemo and Montembeault (7). We may also consider resigning Clague, Ouellet, T. Pitlick, Perrault, Dauphin, Lagesson. That is 13 out of 17 available contract spots. We quite simply do not need more picks, we need prospects under contract who will make resigning some of our AHL players (Clague, Brook, Vejdemo, Ouellet, Dauphin ect...) unnecessary.</div></div>

Yeah you’re probably right I just selected a random low placed team that’s rebuilding … he’s so bad I don’t know if we could even move him at all

Thread: Boston needs Young Talent
L<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>whos time at C is Chytil stealing in the middle 6....Newhook or Jost. Unless they abandon 1 of them being a centre or want to convert Chytil to a winger, seems a bit redundant</div></div>

I don’t think Jost is very good. When Kadri was removed from the lineup it should a huge issue, their bottom 6 centers are not good. I think a high 1st round for Chytl is 100% accurate seeing that he was exactly that and has established himself as at a he very least a decent 3rd liner who is young

As for the Boston trades, I’d love to see how Boston gets younger on D with moving cap while not being terrible ... sure I agree Howden and Hajek are crap but honestly Boston’s system has allowed them to win (and their top 6) but their D is awful and old and the bottom 6 is bad too. But I’m not a Boston expert so to each their own

Thread: Small Moves Big Results
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NYR1983</b></div><div>So you want to pay him Binnington money after playing less that 50 games? And you think it’s justified. I don’t disagree he is a high caliber G, but so was Hank, what was his contract?? Let me tell you..

05/06 ELC 53GP
06/07 ELC 70GP
07/08 4.25M bridge 72GP

Then 6yr x 6.7M</div></div>

I’m not arguing with you that the price is scary but at his age and with his career already I think he’s going to get paid or maybe walk away. Don’t forget he was paid handsomely in Russia and would be paid even more now. He’s also 25 years old. Hank was also grossly underpaid then cost us a fortune in his later years so this could be a way to build some good faith and maybe save some millions down the road ... there’s no wrong answer here. We will see what happens

Thread: Too many D
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Skeating622</b></div><div>Tony D gets bought out after they expose him in the expansion draft , the mutual termination ship has sailed.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Why would the Jets make that deal? Neither Ranger player is needed or wanted by Winnipeg.</div></div>

You are correct as to the buyout, sorry I forgot. So minus approx 375k from cap. As for the Jets, their defense is not good, without Helle they are not good. Sure they can score but defense is not a strong suit. Hajek is capable and Howden has improved tremendously on defense and would provide them with much needed bottom 6 depth. I am not sure how highly touted Henri is but it doesn't seem like he is anything special as of yet. With the signing of DuBois and with Schilefe and with Cole Perfetti ready to make the NHL next year along with Adam Lowry they have all 4 center spots tied up for the foreseeable future. But hey I am no expert, who knows. I doubt it happens but wouldnt it be fun.
