Thread: What is trouba worth in trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Birtle34</b></div><div>Maybe a pick back to buy some retained money, kinda interesting, trouba stance makes it tough to make a deal, would be nice to grab a little higher pick, going to be needed In a couple years when buffy and wheeler start to age out</div></div>
If he was cost controlled with some good term/AAV then we would be talking about a whole different story... he is in the driver's seat of any contract talks at this point in time since he will be a ufa next summer so that, in my opinion, drives his value down. So that was my reasoning with my trade idea as kreider is also 1 year away from ufa but already signed and is pretty cheap for his numbers and then the 20th overall to make up for the value being a defenseman, they tend to get a little bit more value...

Thread: Ranger fans would you like this - Trade with Toronto
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>underlying numbers....ya, I don't have much use for that when it comes to defensemen. I watch the guy play, and he is inept in his own end. It's not really a surprise that teams get better once they get rid of him. He can't play.</div></div>
Ok well good luck getting a dman for 3.5M cap hit that can play on the right side and be used on the pp without giving up a kings ransom. Listen by all means I am not a shatty fan, but the idea that this guy at 3.5M per year isn't good considering that leafs fans are always trying to trade away zaitsev and he makes 4.5M and shatty is better than zaitsev IMO and would than be much cheaper. So put that in perspective that at 6.5M per year, shatty is awful but at 3.5M, that is pretty good value and can help out a team. Not saying he would put TOR over the edge but considering the kind of cap troubles and lack of defense options available, this might be a decent route

Thread: Kaapo Kakko and Thomas Harley
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>math731</b></div><div>You need more depth then MTL need... Having a guy like Podkolzin whom potential is close to Kakko's + a guy like Broberg, Soderstrom or York to help your defense + Juulsen + another great pick would be more helpful for you...</div></div>

If the deal is such a steal for the rangers then why would Montreal pay that... the rangers are in way more of a need to add a franchise altering player like one they WILL get at 2 rather than 2 or 3 shots at descent players. They have already added several players to the prospect pool from the 3 1st rounders from last year and they will possibly have another 3 this year if Dallas makes it to the CF so this makes no sense from the rangers perspective...

Thread: McDavid trade lol
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aspina25</b></div><div>That seems pretty one dimensional (Colorado). Your top line can only play so many minutes a game and I'd rather have multiple strong lines than one powerhouse</div></div>

I mean, Colorado is moving on to the next round of the playoffs and beat a pretty damn good team in the process. As far as the rest of the lines goes I feel like it gives you some pretty good depth and role playing lines with the 4th line being a good agitating grinding line. The 3rd line being a skilled offensive line that can chip in some depth scoring and then the 2nd line is pretty skilled imo as well. You can add some guys here and there through free agency to balance it out. The rangers are a team that will spend up to the cap to put together a championship team unlike some of the other teams out there that dont pony up the dough. The only thing that I would be worried about is the defense but that is a whole other story.
