Thread: Leafs threeway trade jets and sabres
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BigDog91</b></div><div>Or they played together more then any other player. You can not afford him next year. They need help on defense more then they need Nylander. The production lost from Nylander to Kapanen wouldnt be as much as the gain from adding top 4 RHD. Also sheary as shown the ability to play with elite centers and is better Defensively. Mathews struggles in his own zone and Nylander does not help at all. So, they might lose out on a couple points not having Nylander but it think they would be alot better defensively and it will improve the team. They will also save 1.5 million in cap space next year.</div></div>

Yes it's also because they played more together. But if you compare the numbers of assists with the other linemates (Hyman, Johnsson, Kapanen) it's not just because of that. But again, the top line is not the Leafs problem. If Risto boosts the defense it says enough about the core. At best, he's decent in his own zone. Risto is not the answer to their problem. If you want to trade Nylander, better add some more to acquire someone who can play defense.

Also, with the way they're all playing, that Marner contract is more of a problem than Nylander

Thread: Leafs threeway trade jets and sabres
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BigDog91</b></div><div>He has 5 Primary assist. Really He plays on mathews line. He is overrated.</div></div>

Nylander has 41 assists on Matthews' goals in the NHL including 27 primary assists, which doesn't look that spectacular but they barely played together last year. Hyman (16 primary) and Rielly (15 primary) are 2nd and 3rd when it comes to primary assists on Matthews goals. Nylander has 9 or less primary assists on any other teammate. Matthews has 21 primary assists on Nylander, and he got 6 or less primary assists on any other player lol. So you could say they have some chemistry right? Also they have a Corsi above 57% and scoring chances for % above 56%. Again, those two should be playing together. The line is the best one of the Leafs so far and trading away Nylander will likely also hurt Matthews' production unless they bring in someone spectacular on his line which would require another big trade

Thread: PIT trade value
Seabrook is definitely untradeable. His contract is absolutely terrible and it's not aging well at all. Also, the contract is basically buy-out proof. No contender is going to trade for him because of multiple reasons: his cap hit is as high as a quality middle 6 player or like a #2 defenseman. Teams rather spend that money on quality players. Seabrook isn't going to help any contender and because of the length of his contract is just too long.

Rebuilding teams might be willing to trade for Seabrook because it will basically be a trade like: a lottery pick, a 2nd or a decent prospect, Seabrook for a 7th round pick. Ottawa would be the best option since they're struggling to reach the cap floor. But Seabrook won't waive his NMC to go to a rebuilding team.

I think the trades are pretty decent. Jarry had a great start but he won't keep playing like this, so anything more than a 3rd is too much IMO. Especially with the rumors that Casey is still valued higher by the Pens

Thread: All Europe team not Russia
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>Then why aren’t they in the EU? The political point of view is the worst argument you could have used.</div></div>

They aren't part of the EU simply because they don't want to. Switzerland isn't part of the EU. Are they still an European country? To follow your logics. If Russia is an Asian country, why are they participating at the European championships?

You know Eurasia right? The largest continent on earth? Russia is part of that continent. There isn't really a border between Europe and Asia. The Ural is considered as the delimiter between Europe and Asia. By far the most Russian people live on the side which is considered European. The most important cities, like Moscow, are located in Europe. Sorry to say it, but Russia is considered as an European country

Thread: Would the rangers do this
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AJC13</b></div><div>That's not true... Puljujarvi has already played 139 games in the NHL for EDM and when he didn't make the team this year because he sucks, he went to play overseas. Saying he doesn't want to play for EDM is a flat out lie. EDM doesn't want Puljujarvi to play for them because he's not good enough to play in the NHL.</div></div>

Well you obviously haven't paid any attention this entire offseason. Here a short summary: Oilers wanted to extend Puljujarvi. Puljujarvi is unhappy about how he has been treated at the Oilers in the past years and was unwilling to even negotiate with them. He requested a trade, but the Oilers don't necessarily want to trade him because management wants him on the team. So they ask quite a lot in return, which results in him not being traded yet so he signed a contract in Europe. This contract includes a NHL opt-out clause in case he gets traded because he wants to play in the NHL. But like he said: he'll never play a game for the Oilers.

He never reported for trainingcamp. It's ok if you don't follow the Oilers, but try to stick with the facts please

Thread: Would the rangers do this
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AJC13</b></div><div>No way Gorton makes this trade... Why would the Rangers or any other wise GM trade for a bust of a 1st round pick like PulJujarvi? If Puljujarvi is such a great prospect, why is EDM trying to trade him? Why is he playing overseas instead of playing in the NHL? Gorton said last trade deadline he's not interested in other teams prospects and that he wants draft picks instead. Any GM that trades anything of value for Puljujarvi is a fool and Gorton has proven that he's no fool.</div></div>

Well the reason why the Oilers want to trade him is because Puljujarvi refuses to sign any contract with the Oilers. Oilers aren't really willing to trade him but Puljujarvi doesn't want to be a part of that team. That's why he has an NHL opt-out clause in his contract in Europe in case the Oilers trade him
