Thread: Trade Deadline Preview
Schenn is playing decent in Vancouver so may need more then the third.

Konecny seems more like an off season type trade then a deadline deal. Bunting is doing well on the top line with Matthews and Nylander.

I would think one of Domi or Motte would be alright but not both.

Team is playing well so likely not looking to make a ton of moves and throw off chemistry. I would probably look at something like this.

Bunts-Matthews-Nylander (playing well)
Jarny-Tavares-Marner (Playing well)
Domi/Motte-Kampf-engvall/kerfoot (whichever is kept and traded for) (Need that one play driver on the line)
ZAR-Holmberg-Malgin (Play well together in a shutdown role)

Rielly-Lilly (Lilly proving to be a top 4 D man so far)
Sandin-Brodie (Brodie steadies Sandin's game)
Gio-Schenn (Shutdown pairing for tough minutes)

I would also prefer giving Knies a look over Domi or Motte personally and wouldn't think he would be top 6 ready right away.

Thread: Lines Due To Injuries
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kster34</b></div><div>Between injuries and line shifting, I think Keefe just looking to see what options he has.
Post TDL, I think lines should be as follows:
Bunting, Matthews, Nylander - looking good
Jarnkrok, JR, Marner - looked good b4 injury, &amp; really doesn’t matter who plays LW given How good Marner (&amp; JT) are
Kerf, 3C, Engvall - need to make trade, high acquisition cost, for impact 3C (O’Reilly, Horvat, Toews); we need another matchup line with some scoring threat
ZAR, Kampf, 4W- need to make trade, low acquisition cost, for heavy 4th line winger (Hathaway, McCaron); matchup forecheck cycle line</div></div>

I agree with this. I just also like the idea that ZAR could potentially be put up when needed in a defensive aspect. Which you dont get out of Robertson, Engvall, Kerfoot

Thread: Not realistic
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoreHitzSeider</b></div><div>Suter is playing each night. What are you talking about? Red Wings don't need Engvall. We'll keep the better player in Suter until we get some bodies back from injury.

We'll take a 3rd. There's no need to clog up the roster with rental Engvall. Red Wings aren't obligated to do favours for the Leafs.

I don't know why Leafs fans keep offering the same garbage for Vatrano. Verbeek isn't trading a player he just signed in UFA. Otherwise he'll not be able to sign any future UFA's.</div></div>

Oh I thought I read on an article that he was healthy scratched but I just looked and ya he has played every game. Also I never said Detroit needs to do favor's I thought Suter was healthy scratch so it was for both to have fresh starts. Engvall to hopefully find his game and Suter to play (which obviously I see now that he is)

There was literally just a 32 thoughts on the leaf's interest in Vatrano and the Ducks looking to move people depending on if the money and return works for them which my offer may very well not.

Thread: Changes to Round out the roster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GMBL</b></div><div>Not necessarily, they probably don't want to trade Horvat for futures, so getting an elite player like Nylander is probably the best they can do. You might have issue with downgrading Garland to Engvall, but it seems like no one wants Garland's contract, Engvall can fill a 3rd line and PK role. Holl can do what Schenn can, sure he's getting paid 1.1m more but overall the trade is pretty cap neutral.

So, Vancouver losses trade value here for sure but whether it's a horrible deal for them really depends on what they have been offered for Garland and what they will get offered for Horvat. The way Horvat is playing, they can probably get a good futures package, that gives them a chance at getting at least 2 high end talent, but that's probably not what they would prefer.</div></div>

Schenn had 12 hits in the game against the Leaf's on Saturday and has the most in the league currently. Holl has 7 all year so far.... They are two completely different players even though Holl should be able to throw hits he just doesn't. As a leaf's fan I would love to have Schenn back but Holl and Schenn can not do the same thing.
