Thread: Not a fan of either team but random trade idea
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tonyhzs</b></div><div>So you're saying Detroit doesn't want to add 11 million to the cap on two below average players? Chiarot is not as good as Petry, but the cap hit is lower than both players coming back. Granlund is at 5 million for another 2 years, like Petry at over 6 for 2 years.

Detroit can handle 1 bad 4.75 million contract for 3 years. It won't be hard to move if it becomes troublesome. Worst case he gets put in the minors for the last year if he can't be traded. A better scenario is if he is the 7th D , albeit way overpaid. His contract expires just as Edvinsson will need a raise.</div></div>

Also: We lose Chiarot and we are the softest team in the league. Chiarot is not here to be a Elite defenseman, but we need good leaders on a young team. I think his stats can certainly be better, but the eye test...I dunno, I think he's a lot more important than the stats would indicate, and Lalonde seems to agree.

Thread: Lucas Raymond for Brett Pesce
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>evelutions2</b></div><div>Raymond straight up makes the team worse defensively, as he has been shown to do in Detroit. The Canes aren’t moving Pesce for an extreme liability. Besides, the Wings either don’t have or would be unwilling to give up the pieces required to land Pesce.

The Canes might have interest in Raymond, but it won’t be at the cost of Pesce.</div></div>

You are a troll also? Obviously Pesce is more valuable for the Canes, because they are Cup contenders. But you are seriously talking trash about 21y old Raymond. There are many young guys in the league who are still developing their two-way game. Can't Raymond make it better? He has the 2nd most points from the 2020 Draft, more than Jarvis. We don't have the pieces to acquire a 28y old UFA? C'mon. We have four 1sts round picks in the next two Drafts + a Top 5 prospect pool in the league.

Would you trade Seth Jarvis, 2nd round pick + for Jake Walman? Similar comparison.

Thread: Bolts offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dtd_tank</b></div><div>What's the allure? Zadina is 3 years younger and has a higher ceiling. At Zadina's age, Colton wasn't even an NHL player. I don't understand why people want to give up on him.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jfstompers</b></div><div>Colton has back to back 30+ pts seasons on a team playing 11 minutes a night, very limited pp and prime offensive opportunities. He's been very productive and I like his skill level. Given a bigger role I think hes primed to be a top 6 player. Zadina just hasn't played up to his ability. He does some things well I like how he transports the puck but he just hasn't produced and he's just fallen down the depth chart. Idk what his roll is.</div></div>

I am in the middle. It would be a risky move to trade Zadina in the offseason, because there are always ”Busts” who becomes good suddenly. Kotkaniemi, Tippet, Hayton, Vilardi, Dach…I could list 10 more here from just this season alone. I would rather trade a LD prospect or a pick than Zadina.
If Zadina starts poorly again next season, Sure, trade him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dan_the_Man</b></div><div>What the allure Carter Verheaghe wasn't in the NHL at Zadina's age buried in Tampa Bay,What the allure Yanni Gourde wasn't in the NHL at Zadina's age buried in Tampa Bay, what's the allure Jonathan Marchessault wasn't in the NHL at Zadina's age buried in Tampa Bay Colton is FAR MORE PRODUCTIVE THAN EITHER WAS WITH LESS OPPORTUNITY. You don't have to worry because NO F***ING CHANCE JBB is this Stupid . When are people going to realize he doesn't give a F*** about picks.
You see TB IS WAYYYYYY BETTER THAN DETROIT and have the luxury to properly develop players Detroit is getting there. Zadina wouldn't be in the NHL were he part of the lightning organization he'd be riding the bus in Cuse</div></div>

Thread: Package deal for cap space
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Why in the world would Detroit need more cap space when they have $30 million to spend on 8 open roster slots and no significant RFA deals to pay for, now that Larkin's new contract has been signed?

They can afford to trade for David Pastrnak and sign 7 more players to an AAV contract of $2 million.

Dumping Lucas Raymond to save cap space is the epitome of idiocy.</div></div>

100%. Trading Chiarot now makes zero sense. Unless somebody wants to trade for him (which is not happening). Chiarot is not here to be a Elite defenseman, but we need good leaders on a young team. Take Chiarot out of this team and we are getting bullied. Maybe we trade Chiarot in a year or two, but right now we have no need to that.

Thread: Small Ball
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tonyhzs</b></div><div>Cmon now. There is zero chance Fantilli goes 3rd. Dvorsky is a poison pill in that his draft ranking us way overblown. Outside of Carlson and Benson (and Mitchkov), there arent any wingers that I feel are so good they should be top 10, and by the 9th or 10th pick, the wingers will be marginally better than the other centers available, and unless Pelikka or Reinbacher are still there, the wingers are mountains better than the rest of the D. I can see Moore falling to 9th, but not much lower. I really don't know how team scouts feel about Pelikka vs Reinbacher, but to me Pelikka is better, despite expert opinion. Pelikka would not be too much of a reach at 9 to 11, but with how shallow the D in this draft, the two good ones might go in the 5 to 9 range. That likely leaves Moore or Benson available at 9. I'd be ecstatic over Moore, but I'd just be ok with Benson. If Detroit falls to 10 or eleven, it might make more sense to trade back a couple or a few picks.</div></div>

People don’t factor in the competition Reinbacher plays against. Swiss NL is as good as the AHL. Auston Matthews had a 1.28PPG, Reinbacher (D-man) 0.48PPG. And the league has gotten much better since Matthews played there.
