Thread: Looking at them

From Nashville’s perspective: id rather have the equivalent value in an already developed prospect instead of having to start from square 1 all over again. This is what bothered me about the pick to begin with, saros appeared to be a legit starter. Why spend such a high pick on another goalie when there were other organizational needs? Couldve had a mercer, jarvis, or Lundell.

Personally, id pass and see what i can get for saros and run with Askarov at this point. We have invested so much time and resources into him... we might as well use him

You are correct sir 👍! New owner, but coyotes owner gets first dibs at another franchise 🙄

Thread: Looking at more spending

Contracts are reasonable and good adds, but I find it hard to believe top FAs would commit long term to a franchise with such an uncertain future. Maybe they can sign some mid to lower tier guys to short term deals, if (and it’s still a big if to me) - they loosen the purse strings in Utah. Isn’t it the same owner?

Thread: Do Domi and Bert stay

IMO, they can't keep Bertuzzi. Need to shore at RHD. Depending on Timmins and Jones to play big minutes to iffy. So instead of Bertuzzi and Jones at 6m. Maybe Tanev and a cheap or more likely Jarnkrok stays which still leaves 4.5m for a RHD by your post
Yep a 1.5m veteran goalie...who ever that might be.
Even if Domi goes to wing, Leafs need him as centre in case their is an injury to Matthews, Tavares, Holmberg or Kampf.
But you made a very reasonable post with a 22 man roster.

Thread: After the collapse

I think TK might actually end up getting traded after all with how hard this collapse has been paired with how much he's been asking for. I think trading him is the right call but we'll see.

Ostlund isn't the piece for Laughton, I'd probably do that for a 2nd rounder

Thread: Looking at them

Reinhart would be the exact piece this team needs, I just think he'll end up staying in Florida. I'd also probably rather trade Jensen over TVR, but honestly ship em both out.

If Oshie LTIRetires and Leonard signs with the caps, there's a chance they could actually be competitive next year. They're close, but they clearly are not there yet. The future pieces are in place.

TB doesn't consider this they buy Sheary out for $583,333 first and saves the picks

Thread: Would they go after him

Inject that Ullmark deal INTO MY VEINS.

I don't know if that's enough for Nelson, or if the Isles would be interested, but wow would that ever be the perfect move for Boston

Thread: Looking at them

Rather keep Pod. At least I know if he's gonna be asked to play a bottom 6 role, he can do that. Not sure Walhlstrom would bring any qualities Tocchet is after.

All else looks good except for maybe Talbot vs Silovs and then rolling Joshua top 6. Would hope for another goal scorer in the top 6.

Thread: Looking at them

I'd assume and hope one of those RD are moved and Muhk makes the team and is on PP1 since no other D is really qualified for it.

Other than that this is generally what I'd expect to roll into next year with, although Zadina should have a case for top 9.

I like wahlstrom. Can't see the hawks giving anything better than a 5th for him.

The days of taking reclamation projects are over. Hawks have too many of their own young guys fighting for roster spots over the next few years

Thread: Looking at them

Yep. The lines are definitely off. If the Hawks target Brodie, it would be as their 7th D. They'll sign an actual right shot UFA for the 3rd pair. Can't see the Hawks paying anything for Wahlstrom. Only way he ends up a Hawk is as a piece in a larger trade.

If Christian Fischer was willing to take 1x1 Detroit would've already re-signed him. Probably closer to 1x2.

Personally would also prefer Laughton, but I don't know if that would make it, agree with that order above.

This is solid stuff, I like it. It's simple and also enough for next season.

Thread: Opening night and eventual deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lights</b></div><div>That's a good point, Fiala probably is a better comparable. What teams do you think would offer a similar package?</div></div>

Colorado could be in the market for TK and they still have their 24 1st and 26 1st, but assuming the trade happens next deadline it would have to be the 26 1st and along that you can possibly get the guy they will draft depending who they pick with their 24st if they don't trade that pick, but Calum Ritchie would be a nice prospect to get along the 26 1st.

Maybe they could get another asset depending on the trade market, but 26 1st and Ritchie isn't a bad base for a trade. Ritchie also adresses the center issue they have and could have top 6 potential.

There are other teams that could be in on TK, but this is just one example.

Thread: Opening night and eventual deadline

If we are trading Konecny we better be getting something better than a 1st in the late teens to mid twenties, 4th and 2 mid prospects while retaining 50%.

I would say a better comparable for Konecny is the Fiala trade. 1st (19th) and Faber (who was at the time an ok top 4 potential d) Wild was also forced to trade Fiala because they couldn't sign him so add something on top of that because Flyers still have leverage.

Thread: Offseason moves

Flyers aren't interested in Robertson because he is undersized.

Järnkrok is a nice player, but he doesn't fit what they are trying to do.

Cates hasn't really struggled he has just been in a lesser role this season with Couturier and Atkinson returning and Foerster and Brink emerging into lineup regulars.

You know what impresses me about Dallas is how well they draft.

Take Stankoven and Johnston for example.

They just keep hitting on so many picks.

Thread: Looking at them

Would rather keep the assets, space vs “upgrading” to Saros. Not a knock on him, UPL has been very good this year. Being younger and finally found is game.

Thread: Looking at them

I think this trade makes a ton of sense for both side assuming that Ullmark is both willing to go to and extend in Ottawa. The only team we know for sure is on his NTC is LA since that's the one he apparently vetoed at the deadline. Bruins have also been interested in Chychrun for forever, so makes sense on our end too.

Thread: Looking at them

Skjei is an interesting choice. I would be stoked if a deal like this could be made. I think the AAV is low for the overpay that would be needed to draw him to AZ but the term is spot on.

I would also keep Kesselring over Soderstrom. I think Soda's time in the system has come to an end. Maybe a team like Pittsburg that needs to start the teardown/rebuild process could use a guy like him or maybe he would be a good add in asset in a trade, IDK but he has fallen to 7th or 8th on the defensive depth list for AZ.
