Thread: New York Rangers signed Anthony Deangelo (1 Year / $925,000 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AwesomeMatthews</b></div><div>Good job holding out their buddy</div></div>

He's probably got a handshake deal he's going to sign on Jan 1st. Similar to Kevin "1Mil" Lebanc.

Thread: Philadelphia Flyers signed Ivan Provorov (6 Years / $6,750,000 AAV)

proverov put up 26 points. marner put up 96. according to paul marner, this means he should get around 23 mil aav for 20 years

Great comment, thanks. Can you comment on a potential return for Connor?

Thread: Would Chevy consider trading Connor

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TanSor</b></div><div>I've always held the stance that GM's are fools if they refuse to listen to offers on any of their players, even the "untouchable" ones. Just because you're listening doesn't mean you're actively shopping, but maybe a team offers you a deal you can't turn down on one of your star players.

Anyways, I don't know enough about Nurse to comment on the trade, but Connor is a damn good player (he has two consecutive 30+ goal seasons as a 22 year old), so the Jets better be getting a king's ransom for him.</div></div>

Very true. I see hundreds of AGM's with Laine trades on here but rarely do I see a Connor trade, so I'm wondering why. Most WPG fans seem to think Laine is more valuable than Connor, so why not trade the less valuable player?

Thread: Who would have to add

Tough call. Given their contracts, I'd say it's pretty even. You said it in your description: McDavid is the better player, but MacKinnon isn't too far behind at half the price.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ShockingReality</b></div><div>While I do like the idea of Toffoli coming to the Canes, the return is just too much. I would honestly not go much farther than a 2nd round pick.</div></div>

Toffoli is a massive upgrade over Martinook. The question is whether the price is worth it.

These teams don’t matchup real well as trade partners. Flames are gonna need Andersson, as good as Kessel is, Andersson is the future on for back end for the Flames

I do like the Zucker trade except I’d rather give someone like Ho-Sang or Bellows who are both ready for the NHL next year IMO. I’m not ready to trade our best players best friend. All the other trades are good and make sense

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ShockingReality</b></div><div>The Stars probably just don't have the assests that Pittsburgh wants to trade for Kessel.</div></div>

Agreed. We shouldn't be trading for a TOP6 forward, I'd rather go after one as UFA.

Thread: Stars Going All In

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ShockingReality</b></div><div>Close but not very good for Pittsburgh. If they want to trade Kessel to Dallas, it would start with Lindell, a prospect and a first/high second. Pitts wants some fresh legs on that blueline so they'll definitely be inquiring about Lindell.</div></div>

Lindell's not going anywhere. Way too important for us. Our best defensive D by far.

They’ve also indicated they aren’t going to tear down the prospect pool and trade off youth they’ve invested time in to do it. JVR can go sure. Voracek needs to stay. Nothing drastic needs to be done.

Thread: Philadelphia Flyers - Rebuild is Underway

Don't like the moves besides Rieder. Potential 20-20 guy for a 5th is fine with me. The other 2 are just big steps backwards. The "new core of young players" you mention in the Jake trade is already here. TK, Patrick, Provy, Myers, Sanheim, Lindblom, Coots, Ghost. Plus you can add Frost, Farabee, Rubtsov in the next couple years.

Fair, I guess I feel KK is worth at least a 1st (he is worth a 1st & 3rd at @ a $4.06m salary) with the offer sheet rules.
