Thread: If things dont get better
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Right, so you're sticking to pace and don't want to admit it.

See if this helps you understand how stats work. Go to NHL.com and look at Zucker's points and Lowry's points in each of the last 3 seasons. Who produced more? See that's pretty easy. Just like I laid out in my previous post. Lowry has put up more points in 2 of the last 3 seasons.

It doesn't matter how many games it took them to do it (that's pace). It just matters how many points they produced fire their team in a season. It's not Lowry's fault that Zucker is injury prone.

Lowry had been putting up more points than Zucker in 2 of the last 3 year's and is younger and cheaper.</div></div>

Pace very much matters, you're just wrong here.

Thread: If things dont get better
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Nah. Zucker is pretty meh. Paid at least double what he is worth, misses at least half the season or more consistently. Definitely not worth moving a first for. A player of his quality can easily be had for an AHL'er or a mid round pick, or even on waivers. He's just not a difference maker to good or bad teams.</div></div>

Zucker is a good player but I just don't think this is a year to be moving a 1st if this draft is as deep as the hype it gets on here.

I just can't buy stock in a team who's top D pair is
Morrissey-Pionk/DeMelo, even if Hellebuyck has a career year I just can't see them going very far with that for a top D pair.

Zucker probably blocks a trade to Winnipeg anyway, pretty sure all the Canadian teams are on his no trade list.

Thread: (MTL/CHI) - Hillis for Beaudin
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>Placing a player on waivers is an admission by his team that said player no longer has any trade value to that team.


If nobody claims him, that player's trade value is wiped out.


Determining which team wins a trade is really that simple.


Also, I see that the Habs' fanbase is out in full force today, which probably explains why the vote is lopsided.


And why I'm being bombarded with all these comments :popcorn</div></div>

You're being bombarded with all these comments because your logic is plain dumb.

Hillis is an NHL contract in the ECHL, which says a lot. There aren't many of those and they're usually the product of a team handing NHL contract to one of their mid-round picks too soon. It's far from a positive asset, it's a wasted contract spot that would have 100% cleared waivers was he eligible this year. The fact that you're saying an AHL vs ECHL swap is a loss is beyond saving.
