Thread: The big one
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AC14</b></div><div>The athletic bases those solely off of analytics. Analytics for defenseman lean heavily towards what forwards you play with. The Blues for the past couple of years have deployed Parayko in a role to the tune of a 35%ozs. They are also a one-line team that is fairly underwhelming in terms of scoring. His analytics are going to be bad, especially by Doms model.

Regardless that doesn't matter. Parayko is the absolute pillar of the Blues defense. He plays strictly defensive matchups and still gets around 10G 20A a season.

There is no world they can afford to trade him if they are wanting to compete in 2-3 years as the Pres of Hockey Ops/GM has stated without a young top end D coming back.

Neither Toronto or Edmonton has that piece although there have been 5 proposals for him to go there in the last 3 hours. All include the same conglomeration of a late 1st, B/C prospect, cap dumps. That doesn't help the Blues at all.

Even if you switched both 2nds in this proposal to 1sts, it does nothing to help the Blues reconstruct their defense in 2-3 years.</div></div>

Define a "top end D" like are you talking about a Clarke or Nemec?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>I'm not interested in trading him. Like the Blues. But hypothetically, it would need to start with a strong young top 4 RD prospect/a strong reasonably young top 4 RD to replace Parayko and/or a 24 1st, neither of which the OIlers has. Your offer is miles less desirable than that hypothetical offer. In reality, though, he's just not available.</div></div>

Nothings for sure atm. there's a bunch of rumors that the blues are looking to trade him. Also I don't think anyone is going to trade a young top 4 D for Parayko. he's on the wrong side of 30 signed until he's 37 and you could probably get someone as good as him for cheaper. if it was parayko like 2-3 years ago I would say no doubt he's worth that but with his contract and age, I don't think he's worth that anymore

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Marcheesy</b></div><div>So Parise is on pace for 24 goals, stays healthy, hard worker, etc. The reason I believe we can get 2 2nds for him is because of Nick Foligno. He had 7 goals and 9 assists before being traded to Toronto at the 2021 deadline. After retention (was on Toronto’s book for 1.375M), CBJ got a 1st round pick for him. We also acquired Andy Greene in 2020 for a single 2nd round pick. Idk, just seems that the going rate is high</div></div>

That Foligno trade was terrible and so was the Greene trade. Parise would not fetch 2 seconds.

Also I highly doubt Mayfield is worth a 1st. for one Vegas doesn't really need him and if he is just a healthy scratch he def isnt worth that. also there are better D men out there teams could get for a first.

Thread: rebuild
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Birtle34</b></div><div>Helly wants out too, if they attempt whatever this is, going to be one slippery slope, might be a tear off the bandaid moment, not sure if ehlers and Connor remain happy also with all this movement. But I’m hoping the larger role and letters might get them entertained with what is coming next. Anything predicted will probably come in greater than what happens, so probably another tame boring off-season.</div></div>

Honestly I've never heard anything about helly wanting out. that's my bad. could u tell me where u heard this from cuz I love trades and rumors and would love to read more on it? And chances are, no, the jets won't make any big trade, the only possible big trade I can see is a Dubois trade but that might be pushing it. I'm Canadian and the Jets are 1 of my faviorte canadian teams and the fans are so dedicated and yall deserve some playoff success. sadly I've been hearing stuff about Wheeler and Scheifele possibly being lockerroom cancers. and as a Kings fan w a brother who's a Sharks fan, it sounds like the jets could go in the Shark direction of needing a rebuild (or retool) and their owner(s) keep pushing them for the playoffs because they want tickets sold.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>villenash</b></div><div>I don't see Klingberg signing that, but I also don't think NSH needs to use the cap on Klingberg when they have new contracts for Jeannot, Fabbro, and Carier to consider the following season.

NSH takes that TOR deal, but I don't see TOR liking it-- and why just bury him? He's fine on the 3rd pair.

The Trenin deal is low, Kunin isn't a center, and I doubt Cousins comes back (at least he isn't necessary). I'd like to see Glass on this roster as well.</div></div>

I didn't watch many preds games this year so I was basing his contract off of his numbers this season, I'm not sure how good he was defensively. I watched every leafs game this year and I've come to the conclusion that Holl is not worth what he's paid and is a defensive liability (merely my opinion tho).
