Thread: Keeping youth after injuries

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Icedragon4405</b></div><div>Oh yeah. That would be one of the best first pairings in the league once they both hit their full potential</div></div>

❔

Carlson isn't even elite in his prime already 31

Fehervary doesn't have elite potential

It wouldn't even be pelech/puloch

Not elite either

Thread: Keeping youth after injuries

That's a really ironic appraisal of Oshie given his ridiculously cushy situation, heaps of PPTOI with an elite unit, year after year like :rolleyes

Sprong and he are probably very similar level players

Also unfair to Sprong these players have more PPTOI

Eller
Protas
Michael freaking sgarbossa

If the NHL is going to cast Sprong as all offense

Then at least they should allocate him as that

Ugh

Thread: Leafs-Coyotes Coyotes Side

I don't think Roussell has any value

7 pts in his last 55 games

Fitting that the GM who is the reason for him having such a relatively high cap hit just got fired the legacy of bimbo jenning still hanging around

Thread: Leafs-Coyotes Coyotes Side

I think you've crafted a really good Chychrun return with the Toronto assets perfectly flippable and some useful RFAs added, refreshing to see

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>The Blues have no use or cap for that, and you've asked too much anyway. Besides, that's a weak Chych return.</div></div>

That's basically the Eichel return

Possibly even more

So🤨

Thread: Trash Oilers TLD

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>evelutions2</b></div><div>These have got to be jokes right? Barrie is useless defensively and is only good offensively when playing with McJesus and Draisaitl. Pulju is overrated. Bear and Jarvis have been excellent for us, so why would we trade them. Jarvis also wasn’t being considered in an Eichel package so why would Carolina trade him for what would be a useless player of Barrie if he came here, and then Pulju.</div></div>

Barrie is still the 29th highest scoring D in NHL history and only half of his career has been with elite forwards, his xGA numbers ~30th percentile

So he's just meh defensively

The fact that he drives play helps that a bunch

Why so reluctant to research?

The barrie narrative on this site is lazy at very best

Thread: Jakob Chychrun

Both are like half the value for each player

Neither team desperate to sell

Both players pivotal to the franchise also...

Thread: A full retool

Expecting the most analytically friendly GM to pay a 3rd for a 35y/o (at that point) D with mediocre underlying metrics is really questionable

Especially when he's not league minimum like...

How could tml justify that given their cap situation

Forum: Armchair-GMDec. 6, 2021 at 9:35 a.m.

Thread: A full retool

I like that WSH save some $ on that deal, but I think for that return PHI should sweeten by also taking back hagelin and kempny to ultimately bury

Thread: Three way blockbuster -- NYR WPG VAN

The LW situation has to be better after this, either moving kreider back there, or Chytil up or something. Gauthier underrated too. That helps 👍

Or signing EStaal to help shift folks around there

Whatever works best

Thread: Three way blockbuster -- NYR WPG VAN

Fascinating

I had too crazy a weekend to assess this fully

But either way this by far one of the most impressive and coherent 3WT ever posted here... really sets a standard for the site overall in that sense

Thread: This has to be playoffs

Maybe

A lot to ask from those young D to varying degrees

Goaltending still very questionable with the jury still out on gustavsson given small sample sizes in every phase of career so far especially at NHL level

How so exactly?

Very lateral moves type AGM

Oesterle being underrated and cheap especially tho

Thread: Next step The Cup

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Aasen6</b></div><div>That probably doesn’t even get you horvat, so not sure how you figure Hoglander is coming with him</div></div>

Vrana being much better at scoring and Corsi than bo and having an extra year of contract until UFA makes it really wild to suggest his other qualities are valuable enough to make it so DET would have to add Zadina and a mid 2nd just for him... he's not magical

It was tricky to word that concisely

Mainstream players always get overrated

Forum: Armchair-GMDec. 5, 2021 at 11:53 p.m.

Thread: 2023-24

A bit more complexity in the Murray situation though with his buyout staggering much later than sooner which may well cut into their cup window

Rare type of buyout in that sense

But yeah not too bad for this scenario naturally just maybe the last year of his deal may be a bit of sticky wicket for them to the tune of costing a 2nd

Thread: Why Vancouver is fine if they just have patience

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>They just really need a Moritz Seider type RD and it’s so hard to get him unless it’s top 10 in the draft</div></div>

With the depth of the draft this year I wonder if someone might drop lundell style but heck at 5th overall right now maybe just nemec / jiricek

Forum: Armchair-GMDec. 5, 2021 at 11:36 p.m.

Thread: Trash Oilers TLD

Yeah it's really really underrated how McDraisaitl aren't a big enough cap hit to preclude quality depth like 20M for two players at that level is a bargain

60ish win team should be the expectation

10 NHL teams similarly have at least two players making 20ish million, rarely both elite, often one of them is a terrible contract even

Then most other teams have 3 at 20M so

Yeah it really sucks whenever the gaslighting malarkey machine tries to spew up stuff to try and defend the mediocre work of Holland and especially chiarelli

Forum: Armchair-GMDec. 5, 2021 at 11:23 p.m.

Thread: Why Vancouver is fine if they just have patience

I agree overall

Retool >>> rebuild for them

I'm a bit lower on the poolman situation as he's 3x league minimum not overly young either, but thanks especially to burying, not too terrible

🤨

Those players aren't imbued with mystical powers

Irrational homerism on this site really is unfortunate

Edit:

It's also hilarious because a GM recently traded a 1st line W in prime for a STL depth player who was considered special also lol like 🙄

Monahan isn't really positive value on his deal

Paid like Kreider

Results like Josh Bailey (almost same pts/g since 2019)

Typo.

Thread: Scoring help if were buying

Well as someone who advocates for them to go all in while they have Saros on a wonder contract I support this AGM a bunch but idk still doesn't sit quite right

Especially with how nifty an asset Farrance is

Unloading him for likely a year of Smith 😬

Thread: two buyouts - a deadline and a refresh

I'd just say that if Ottawa decide to buyout both they'd really have to make it worth it given their situation and shoot for the moon... this is a solid attempt

But doesn't really get there

Puts too much $ on the books for their key window
