Canucks give up Hronek for less than they paid despite the fact he's having a career year. Where is the logic behind that? (Hint, there isn't any, Allvin laughs and hangs up after not even considering that offer)

The Guentzal Lindholm three way
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jfkst1</b></div><div>They should completely give up on this season. I'd prefer they flip DeBrusk.</div></div>
they should not give up in this season per say, we need to win to make the pick to SJ worse, we sell off assets and get younger but if we can extend debrusk, id try to.
However, I still think this package is a bit light, Id prefer Raty over Podkolzin and would add a pick or 2

The Guentzal Lindholm three way
Not a fan of any of these teams and don't have a ton of info on the situation, but man that would be a crazy framework for a deal. Never seen anything like that that I can remember with so many big-name pieces involved in a 3-way trade. That would be insane and so much fun.
Pittsburgh gets two high-ceiling AHL guys that look to be pushing for the NHL very soon, plus a good middle-sixer with time to decide whether to extend or flip him.
Vancouver spends a quality asset to go from a great rental to an elite rental.
Boston gets their center now, upgrading the current roster and without spending picks.
Very creative, I like it. Seems like a fit and a decent framework.

In 2-3 years he's probably going to be playing more then 39 year old Letang and probably at least fighting in ice time with 36 year old EK. Might as well move Yager too because he's behind Crosby and Malkin in the C depth chart

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>again you don't watch him play and your still talking.
No I don't watch every WHL game, nor do I need to to know Yager is the penguins best prospect. It's not like that's a hard assessment. It's also obvious he plays a position of more pressing need for the penguins.
Again you are continuing to argue on a player you don't watch. If you bothered to watch and you knew anything about hockey you would know that his defense is a transition game, based on his skating.
While that may work at the NCAA level, at the NHL level where everyone is a good skater and many better than him, that isn't going to cut it.
You read some hyped up report and you believe it. Instead of actually using some judgement and realizing there is a difference between NHL and NCAA play and what one does on one level isn't going to transfer to the other.
But go ahead, keep reading reports from guys who hype everyone up and give no realistic view of a player.
Maybe you can read some great reviews on Yakupov while your at it. I hear he was going to be an all star and had a near flawless gave due to "scouting reports" but you know, those scouts said it so people who played hockey at the NCAA level shouldn't be honest about players.
But hey instead of writing another comment, try watching games instead</div></div>
Just, to be clear. You don't watch Yager play. Yet despite not watching him you call it "obvious" that he's your best prospect and claim it's an "obvious assessment?" Yet I don't watch WIllander play so the mere idea of calling him a good prospect that can play solid defensively (what 99% of people who *do watch* him would say) is a ridiculous statement? If you can't see the hypocrisy maybe you should take a step back

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>no one is out to lunch.
Like I said, stop reading what other people say and go WATCH.
His defensive game is only in transition. He will not be able to play that way at the NHL level.
Your like all the other so called experts on here.
Like the same ones in EDM who talked up pool party while those who watched him play said he can't play north south and won't transition to the NHL.
But they went on too.
You don't watch, you read and then come comment to people who have watched a guy play. Sit down.</div></div>
You said Brandon Yager is your best prospect, are you sitting down to watch every WHL game too? Every single other person who has watched him play has described him as good defensively (along with analytics about him) but that should all be thrown out the window because "LuckyMoneyPuck" says otherwise?

After a blockbuster deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>Buchenvich isn't an equivalent to Jake. Jake is a repeated 40 goal pace guy. There is no other forward this year on his level available.
If you think someone is going to pay out for a rental you don't get the NHL. The vast majority of time a trade like this happens the other team signs the player long tern.
So if Jake is moved you can expect shortly after he gets an 7 or 8 year deal from that team.
As for Hanafin, you are talking apples and oranges. Defense on the market has no bearing to forwards on the market. Defense in general is always at a premium. Where forwards move rather easily for the most part. Usually because they are 2nd or 3rd line guys on expiring deals. Where teams tend to not move defense as much because of the dire need for it around the NHL.</div></div>
Self evidently untrue just looking at Lindholm. Big package traded for a pure rental. Especially now that Pettersson is extended. Thinking Buch is less valuable than Guentzel is homerism. He's a PPG winger with more cost control. Some teams have interest in both W and LD so it is not an unfair value comparison between Guentzel and Hanifin.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>I know exactly who he is because I watch way more NCAA hockey they you do.
He is not a strong defenseman, he's an offensive one.
It's so sad you don't even know your own prospects. Probably because you never watched them play.
It's not his offensive game that needs work, it's so sad you don't get that. But you will when he gets to the NHL level and realize his light frame for his size is going to end up with him getting pushed around alot.
He won't be able to play the same way in the NHL that he does at BOS and will most likely be hidden in the Ozone.
but go on..... tell me more about what you don't know.</div></div>
Every scout in hockey that watches him described him as a two way/defensive D but I'm sure they're all insane and only you truly know him

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>no I won't be.
People said the same thing when OTT traded out EK.
But they turned it into Norris and Stutzle.
It is really rare that a player of Jake caliber hits the trade market. Who ever makes the move is going to long term deal him. The penguins will be paid nicely for that chance.</div></div>
Buchenvich is at least as valuable, probably more given he has two years remaining. Hanafin is a quality 2D. Guentzel isn't the only high end talent being considered. If he goes in a sign and trade I could see it being strong value return. If he is a rental and especially if Dubas is adamant about getting another roster player back, I'm expecting disappointment.

You need to stop trying to dump Mikheyev on the penguins. They aren't taking him.
No one is rushing it to take a guy with an almost 5 mil cap hit who has 2 years of contract left. No one.
Furthermore, the return for Guentzel alone would cost more. Willander isn't exactly an exciting prospect.</div></div>
You might end up very disappointed on what Pittsburgh actually gets at the deadline. And I say this is a penguins fan.

It's basically a trade of two first round picks for Guentzel which would be his maximum return anyway.

Byram
I don't think that is the best use of Byram as an asset. I don't want to trade him, but if the Avs did, it has to be for a player with similar term and RFA control (see Frost, Morgan). I DO think that pulling Gourde out of Sea is ideal (even if Sea seems like they dont ever trade anything of value), but the cost is probably shocking. Sticking him between Nuke and Lehcky is an absolute nightmare 2nd line.

Vatrano and Lybushkin
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mediumyeet</b></div><div>No disrespect but that is not accurate on Truscott.
Aman just turned 24 a couple weeks ago and is signed to 2 more years at 825k. He is a reliable 4C that has been one of our better penalty killers. He's been in the NHL all year but has been healthy scratched a couple of times. For the most part he's been a regular though. Nothing special but responsible youngish C with some size and decent skating ability.
Truscott is a LHD that plays in Michigan. He's likely nothing special. Turns 22 in April and is 6'1 and just an all around reliable dman. He is the captain at Michigan and prior to this year was paired with Luke Hughes there and Owen Power the year before. His player type is kind of like a Tanev but highly highly unlikely it is at that level ever. Probably a depth or AHL dman.
I would be fine with a mid round pick instead of these guys but figure they might actually be a bit more interesting for Minny that a 4th rounder.</div></div>
Man, I have heard the exact opposite on Truscott! I even looked him up on the CapFriendly scouting reports (https://www.capfriendly.com/scouting-reports/players/jacob-truscott) and they also say he's needing to improve hid defensive responsibility to translate to the NHL.
BUT, I haven't watched him play; I'm basing what I know of the prospect on various podcasts / talking heads regarding VAN and various scouting reports. Based on what you think, I'd be more inclined to keep him and send a mid pick.
