<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TxRollerhawk</b></div><div>Obviously your tunnel vision keeps you from accepting that other teams prospects may be good. Mitchell is a stud, conditional 1st round pic makes sense ( no one is giving premium pics for 1 yr rental, and alty i admit is a wild card but has a thin of upside. Spare me your juvenile takes and put some thought into your words for the first time in your life you strawberry chode.</div></div>
Mitchell is a B prospect at best in our system and hardly a difference-maker when talking about trading a #1D, "conditional on signing" isn't allowed anymore as of the 2020 CBA renegotiation, and "Alty" is meaningless noise. And Strome adds zero to the trade - he's not an upgrade on any of the centers we're already struggling with and needs a high-powered transition winger to make his game useful (so he won't fit with Laine, who needs a transition center). Doing that for Foudy alone would be questionable - we're getting more "raw value" with the pick and Mitchell, but we're trading away from areas we badly need (centers, fast transition game). Having that as a <strong>Jones</strong> trade, with Foudy included? That would be a strong contender for the worst trade in Jackets franchise history, and we've had some really g-dawful ones.

The assessment stands as written. It's trash. Every bit of it.

Thread: AGGRESSIVE off season come on Jim
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JimBenning</b></div><div>you do know my offer is more than Vancouver got for Ryan Kesler, a Selke winner and finalist for literally all his career. And it is the same Vancouver paid for JT Miller except it is a top 10 pick. You are vastly overestimating Jones value. And Tyler Myers is at least a $5M Top 4 RD. Just because he is slightly overpaid does not give him negative value. Myers lead the Canucks in ice time, was great on the penalty kill and was good at 5v5. He was the best defensemen on many nights. He is a good player and adds a lot of grit and physicality which GMs love. Take your homer glasses off and watch some hockey</div></div>
Hon, I'm not the one setting that price. That's the CBJ organization. I was proposing that kind of structure without the extra sweetener.
