Thread: Bunch of moves
Question is this... car prob declines but Jake Bean is being blocked so CAR does need to move a Dman and NYR Need a top 4 LHD. Haydn Fluery OR Gardiner is who NYR should go for. I also don’t think giving CAR another D prospect would make much sense for them.
Don’t see Anaheim moving 6 especially for Trouba who’s making $8M. I also do think NYR should move ADA if possible as I personally think Trouba is a much better dman. Goligoski is a very good stop gap for Nils and it’s just 1 year, love that move. I do think Stepan is a shadow of what he used to be as he’s now a 30-35 point player, but it’s worth a shot IF management is ready to give Chytil a final chance to prove he can be a 2C on this team before ultimately moving on from him or permanently making him a winger.

Thread: on the fly
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HOCKEYBOY448</b></div><div>I feel like long term would be really tough when having to sign Laf, Mika, Kakko, Fox, Shesty, Miller, Lindgren in the next three years. I do agree the price to acquire Nuge seems high, but I don’t think Edmonton would consider doing so unless it was an overpay. And they would probably value Chytil over Strome.</div></div>
Of course they’d value Chytil over Strome, but feel like Buch who just was on pace for 55 pts and is a young top 6 RW would help EDM a lot as he gives McD a player who has top line experience and is only getting better. McD doesn’t have great wingers that’s why I think Buch helps them a lot, a 2020 later 1 can help them and Strome is good enough to be 3C or 2nd line RW with Draisaitl.

Thread: Calgary Jersey
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>masterjuddi</b></div><div>I guess the value is there in the trade, but Calgary simply doesn't do it IMO
Strome would need a new deal, while Monahan is way better and under a nice contract for a 1C
Deangelo has a long way to go IMO to be what Hanifan is now. plus the headache of being an RFA
I like the idea of Georgiev and maybe a deal can be made on the side, but the rangers need him if/when Lundqvist retires
draft picks are nice, but the flames are competing now</div></div>

Rangers HAVE Wall, Huska, Lindbom was drafted round 2... they have goalies. Igor potentially gets a 6X6 type of deal soon. They don’t need to continuously pay $9M on goalies as AG will get in the 3X3 range or 4X3.5 range if elsewhere...It’s too much on goaltending in the cap era, need those sub $1M backups while you can.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nikolay_Zherdev</b></div><div>Pass on that Calgary deal</div></div>

Respectully, why? NYR need a top 4 LHD and have an abundance of RHD. NYR need a 2 C and Monahan is a 1C. Strome had good chemistry with Panarin yes but he’s 18 months younger and had 8 pts in 10 playoff games. NYR has a VERY deep prospect pool, but lacks center depth. Look at Monahan contract 3 years at $6.375M for a 1B C. If Hank doesn’t retire, you give him 1 more year as backup to win. This team is very winnable. Perhaps NYR are giving too much but you aren’t getting a top 6C and a top 4 LHD without overpaying. TDA honestly is very replaceable. Nils will be up soon enough and it’s 3rd pair. TDA isn’t a top 4 defensive dman. He’s an offensive powerhouse on the D end but a 2/3 pairing defensive player. NYR need a real top LHD.
