<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DavidAyers</b></div><div>I don’t think Krejci is gonna leave Boston, but if he does I don’t see CBJ as a destination.
Sharks could say yes, Korpisalo is a good starting goalie, and they get a 1st, but that’ll really hurt there offence.
Carolina says no, Trocheck has been great for Carolina, and Stenlund and Kenner are bottom 6 options, and there a contender, so the 2nd means little
Defence is a bit concerning although</div></div>

Meier's performance has been less than stellar of late, and if he doesn't improve, his high qualifying offer is going to make him a headache to deal with. I can see the Sharks flipping him for this kind of package at some point during the offseason.

Thread: hopefully reasonable

Boqvist doesnt have to be protected. Our defensive protection list is likely going to be Keith, Murphy, and Zadorov if hes not traded before then. It would be beneficial for the Kraken to take De Haan, so no reason to choose the 8 skaters option, bringing us to the 7-3-1 option where it will be easy to protect Strome as well. Most likely guys to be taken are either David Kampf or De Haan, which probably doesnt force the need from a trade for us. But if MN finds the need to trade Dumba for a center, its probably not Strome without more addition on our end.

huh, thats actually a good observation. What you said is right, 17-32 is reserved for playoff teams. My guess is just that capfriendly has it based on league record at the moment. Assuming they dont make the playoffs, I would imagine theyre 15 or 16

Thread: Rebuild

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Sovzil is arguably a better prospect then Lambos and regularly overlooked. Also would take Evidsson if outside of the top 3 as he is a big stay at home defender with 1st line potential and that is exactly what we need to pair with guys like Boqvist or Mitchell.</div></div>

I actually did forget about Svozil. He's definitely a guy I would consider too in that Lambos range but I dont think I would take either of them higher than 12th or so, which then goes back to the trade back solution if we land in that later end of the top 10 range. Edvinsson has been interesting to me. I've seen him ranked all over the board, with some people ranking him in the 20s, and I personally haven't watched him a whole lot. If Stan and Kelley evaluate him as a top end talent, I won't argue, but if they decide he's not high on their board, I also won't be mad.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stan_Bowman</b></div><div>I like Kubalik, a lot, but I think trading him for Seth Jarvis makes sense for both teams and their timelines. I'm not an expert on the draft this year, but in this scenario I would love getting a LD, RD, and C from the three picks.</div></div>

not really an RD that I like outside of Clarke that would go in the 1st. If we are in top 10, probably take a winger or center first (I'm quite partial to Lucius and Johnson). Top 5 take 1 of Hughes Clarke or Power. Top 15 take Lambos (hopefully). Rest of the draft depends on who we get with the 1st pick realistically. An ideal haul for me would be Hughes and if we can move up again into the 1st I'd like to snag Robertsson or Chibrikov in the later 1st. If we don't get the D we want with the 1st pick, I'd trade back a bit for Lambos and then reclaim some more assets.

If history has anything to say, then he won't. If a TB player gets a suspension in the back half of this season, I will eat my words. Until then, the league fails to punish players who make dirty plays that don't result in serious injury.

not once did I say we were clean. I admitted we were dirty. But the league actually gave a crap back then and suspended the players that deserved it. There's no accountability anymore. That's the issue.

You gonna cry about Buff when the only significant season he was apart of was 2010? And yes, they were dirty, but for the large part, those dirty plays went punished.

Yeah and Tom Wilson got 7 games for it. All we have to show for it is an interference call and it likely wont get much more than that. All I ask for is accountability.

I agree on not needing another center, but I think Guenther would be the better choice at this point (over Eklund if youre choosing a forward). I think his skill set fits here better. Either way, one of those two on this team would be really dangerous in a few years

It could work if they feel they want an older D-man right now. The value makes sense though, just don't know how Devil's fans feel about the timing of it.

Thread: Offseason big trade with Devils

I don't know why NJ would make that trade. They clearly like Foote, getting him in some NHL games at the end of a lost season, and that first is going to be pretty high, I would imagine, where they could draft someone who projects similar to Sergachev and fits their future contention timeline better

Thread: If the Blackhawks want Boqvist

Not really interested in adding Boqvist for a major piece. He's 22 and hasn't really produced at the NHL level, so he's basically in the same spot as Nylander. I'd probably give you a 3rd for him at best just because we don't really have the room for another Nylander.

I am excited to see Hughes take another big step forward next year though!

I'm usually pretty unbiased in my opinions of Blackhawks players and their values, or atleast compared to other fans on this site, but Murphy's is a hill I'll die on. And I get it. By no means am I saying Murphy is better. I just think when it comes to the best defenseman on a ****ty team, its pretty easy to undervalue him. But as you said, agree to disagree.
