Thread: Value is prob wrong
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Yojimbo</b></div><div>Why would the Pens do this? I realize that in video games the computer will allow trades if the value is okay, but it never looks at the why of a trade. But, why would Pittsburgh make this trade?

But overall, no, the value is not close at all. Edmonton needs to add, considerably. Guentzel is a year and a half younger, signed for 4 more years as opposed to 1, and is frankly the better player on the ice. adding a maybe top-10 Edmonton prospect dose not cross the chasm that is the difference in value. Then you can consider RNH's great track record of leadership and carrying his team to a playoff winning culture. Um... Try adding Yamamoto or Bouchard.

Even then, I doubt that the Pens actually do this because Guentzel is good, he works with either Crosby or Malkin, on either wing, and he plays with passion.

... and no one wants Yakupov2.0, Puljujarvi.</div></div>

With all due respect you are over valuing Guentzel. He may be the better player (even that could be debated, as they play significantly different roles on their teams), but Yammo or Bouchard as well? ...unless you are trying to overstate your point.
