Thread: Blockbuster with BUF
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>V1NnY2</b></div><div>Mitts has virtually the same numbers as Caufield this year and would have been second on the team in points last year by a mile. Is he a true elite/all-star caliber player? No. But is he a young quality top 6 player with decent size? Yes.

I’d be curious to see what you expect as a return in a legitimate offer for Reinbacher.</div></div>


Don’t get me wrong, i like Mittlestadt but he isn’t a top tier forward. He would be a nice addition to Mtl roster that for sure but not at the cost of a futur top righthanded defenseman. Buffalo didn’t even received a prospect of that caliber in the Eichel trade.

A late first and Logan Mailloux or Justin Barron would be much more a return to expect. Historically if you look at similar profile player in a similar position then Mittlestadt this is the return. Fiala deal is probably a great start to what the return would look like.
At the time of the trade Faber was a good prospect but he wasn’t a high profile prospect with the 19th overall pick. I think that this is what to expect in a trade for Mittlestadt.
As for Reinbacher, 5th overall pick aren’t traded a year after being traded. Unless you are talking about the top tier players.

Thread: Trade deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TkachukNorris79</b></div><div>No way Ottawa bites on that</div></div>
I'd be happy to get Bourgeaut + 2nd for Tarasenko

Ceci is not a cap dump, since he can't come back to Ottawa, I'd flip him right away at 50% to get some more value

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bobrick</b></div><div>So... you want the Sens to basically trade Hamonic for Ceci (who makes 2 million plus more) and who isn't wanted back in Ottawa. And Janmark who doesn't help Ottawa in any way. A late 2nd round pick and Bourgault who also isn't needed. And you want Vlad at 50% retained? Ottawa can do better by just getting a 1st from another team.
Also there is no way SJ touches that deal. You're not unloading Campbell that easily.</div></div>
Flip Ceci at 50% right away and the deal looks good

Janmark is UFA and Hamonic has one more season, that would be beneficial too

Thread: Draft
-This trade is tough. Guenther has had NHL success but Hutson feels like a higher ceiling guy. I think Montreal would blink on this one and keep the higher upside play.

-I don't think Allen gets back a haul, but I think someone will bite this summer. Sharks feel unlikely because they will still be in rebuild mode, but there are teams out there looking for a solid 1B and Allen can pull that off reasonably well.

-I think Calgary would take a swing at one of your excess D over Ylonen - they have a ton of UFAs and a guy like Jayden Struble is probably more valuable than another bottom-6 forward. I don't think this is a bad trade, but it feels like one of those trades that fans of both teams are mildly annoyed by.

-The easiest no here. Both players are overpaid against their production, but Lee is actually still a somewhat useful NHL player. Add in the fact that Lee's overpaid deal only has 2 years left after this while Anderson's has 3. Oh, and Lee is the captain of the team and has a full NTC that turns into a 15-team over the summer.

-Florida would be selling low on Lundell if they moved him right now. He's still young enough that I wouldn't want to trade him right now. This package is nothing to sneeze at, but I still think the Panthers keep Lundell and hope he can look more like his rookie year self again.
