ARMCHAIR-GM TEAMS

Forum: Armchair-GMMon. at 2:52 p.m.

Thread: How much would they cost

You asked for Boone. You already know the answer.

Forum: Armchair-GMMon. at 8:07 a.m.

Thread: Make room for young players

Hayes is not the sort of veteran center Columbus needs or wants. We need glue guys who are good mentors and Hayes' reputation in that regard is dubious at best.

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 10:01 p.m.

Thread: Keller

We're in no hurry to give up Kuraly as we need more glue guys; <strong>if</strong> he's traded it'd be at the deadline for picks, not during the offseason.

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 10:00 p.m.

Thread: Attempt at some upgrades

Works for the Jackets if it works for Ottawa.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>Boqvist is terrible, absolutely unusable defensively, and doesn't do anything offensively either. You'd be hard pressed to find a player who is a worse fit for what Ottawa needs.</div></div>
Don't be absurd. He's got a lot of weaknesses defensively to be sure (though he's looked better when he's played this year), but offensively he's been a really good contributor, especially on the power play. His biggest issue so far for the Jackets has been injuries.

Whether or not that skillset is actually one Ottawa needs is unknown to me, but you're selling him short.

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 9:57 p.m.

Thread: Georgiev to the Yetis

The 3rd in that Wood trade is going to the wrong team. Either that or you need to retain quite a bit and even then it's unlikely 'cause Wood isn't good enough to justify that kind of term for the Jackets.

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 9:53 p.m.

Thread: Would Ottawa do it

Guys I don't want to move for an asset we have virtually no chance at getting. Put me in a box, why don't you...

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 9:52 p.m.

Thread: Werenski to Detroit

The Wings fans around here have largely figured out Werenski's staying.. There's no need to torment them further. They got the memo.

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 6:43 p.m.

Thread: Rossi Jiricek

Not even remotely close.

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 1:33 p.m.

Thread: Best Case Ontario

Mikheyev is neither needed nor wanted on the Jackets, so the only return you're likely to get is "pay us to take on your cap dump".

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 8:30 a.m.

Thread: What to do what to do

I think the Jackets would rather just keep the pick. There's too many youngish wingers without waiver exemption in the system already.

Forum: Armchair-GMSun. at 8:29 a.m.

Thread: SLC offseason

If you want to trade for Laine, you need to offer a package commesurate with that of a top-line scorer. Whether or not you believe he currently is one is irrelevant; unless that is offered, the Jackets are better off keeping him and hoping he rebounds, and there's no cap crunch here to motivate dumping him.

Forum: Armchair-GMSat. at 11:44 p.m.

Thread: 2024-25

You asked for Boone. You already know the answer.

Forum: Armchair-GMSat. at 7:13 p.m.

Thread: The only pieces the Sens would consider for Tkachuk

I appreciate your not asking for Fantilli. ;)

That's probably a fair ask for the guy but I wouldn't want to pay it.

Forum: Armchair-GMSat. at 7:11 p.m.

Thread: San Jose Sharks

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dopplsan</b></div><div>Alexander Chemel-who ski?</div></div>
Someone who's scoring in the KHL; presumably being offered on the basis of us having success bringing over Voronkov and Marchenko. Personally I'd rather we just use the pick on a longshot of our own rather than someone else's overager.

Forum: Armchair-GMSat. at 7:10 p.m.

Thread: No georgiev

Blankenburg doesn't get nearly enough credit for how well he does. Trading him ought to be a nonstarter.

Forum: Armchair-GMSat. at 7:07 p.m.

Thread: Let a man dream

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dopplsan</b></div><div>Agreed, but I don’t think this is selling low - A (likely) lottery-pick, a high-2nd and 3rd is a pretty good haul for Laine, IMO. Sending RR out for another good asset is just a cherry on top, particularly if it’s a move that is predicated.

It’s legitimate to wonder if his value has already peaked, and I think it’s fair to take what you can get if it’s a good deal. This definitely isn’t on the level of some of the face-slaps we’ve seen around here.</div></div>
I would not be inclined to judge this based on so low a bar to clear, myself. :)

Thread: Ducks 24-25 possibility

I will see the whole world burn before any Strome ever wears union blue. No.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri. at 11:25 p.m.

Thread: Contenders

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Friendly_Cannon</b></div><div>Depends where the pick falls tbh. If we can get a right shot defender in the draft plus pick up geekie, I don’t hate the offer.</div></div>
At the moment they're two picks behind us. So it arguably depends more on who falls to those picks and whether or not we think we're getting a RD that's better than Jiricek with our own pick. If we can, it's arguably a no-brainer. If not... I think we'd have to turn it down even though that's killer value, because team construction reasons.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri. at 11:23 p.m.

Thread: Big moves in 2025

It's a very nice daydream.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri. at 11:21 p.m.

Thread: i know they wont trade him but what would it take

Ownership of our own 2nd next year is a bit up in the air as it may be going to the Flyers (depends on whether we keep it or this year's 2nd). But assuming we can work around that issue, I imagine Columbus would be in favor. Bit rough cap-wise but we've got maneuvering room.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri. at 11:19 p.m.

Thread: Blockbuster Offseason

I tried to compose some kind of Dr. Seussian rebuttal for the Marner trade w/r/t we're not trading Jenner (and it's silly for Toronto to move him to begin with) but I've been driving all day and am more sapped as a result than I realized. So you'll just have to settle for a "no". Sorry.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri. at 11:17 p.m.

Thread: You cannot tell me this wouldnt be funny

That's probably not enough (or not the right kinds of assets) for Ottawa, and too much for the Jackets. DOA concept.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri. at 11:16 p.m.

Thread: Marner for Werenski PLUS adding depth

That Marner-for-Werenski deal would get you deservedly crucified by both sides.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri. at 11:14 p.m.

Thread: 1727

Literally no reason for the Jackets to pay any asset for another depth prospect of that age. We'd rather just draft some other project center.

Forum: Armchair-GMFri. at 11:13 p.m.

Thread: Let him cook

You asked for Boone. You already know the answer.
