Thread: Restart Rebuild Retool

Maybe, but Krebs isn't in our future imo and Coronato is scorching the AHL.

Markstrom isn’t worth that price at this point. The time to trade him for a high value was the TDL, especially with no retention

Thread: Next Flames Finds

Your evaluations look fair to me. Van extends Blueger at that price though, and I don't think COL take Kadri. Another team will want him at that price, but term and NMC are an issue.

Forum: Armchair-GMMar. 15 at 7:38 p.m.

Thread: Next Flames Finds

Giving up Kadri would hurt but that trade would be very tempting. The main hitch is Murray Edwards almost certainly won't allow the retention.

I wouldn't trade Mangiapane for a 3rd either. It'd be better to wait until next year's deadline and either extend him then or sell him off as a rental with 50% retention. Similar story on Kuzmenko.

The Marky trade needs at least Holtz replacing Clarke.

You beat my edit. I'm assuming Stillman and the retention on Marky would be removed too because like I said Murray Edwards probably won't allow any retention on Marky.

That's a terrible take, you're going to nix a deal for a 1st and grade a prospect over Duehr? He's a 13th forward on our team.

I can tell the TDL is getting near, the posts get increasingly more deranged by the day.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 25 at 10:48 a.m.

Thread: Markyanafinanevpane

Even with the injuries to Viktor Arvidsson and Carl Grundstrom, Los Angeles doesn't need a $4 million winger, no matter how productive.

Roy is too valuable to exchange for Tanev in light of the injury to Mikey Anderson. <strong>Adding</strong> Tanev for LaFerriere and a second, but not a first, would make sense.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 25 at 10:14 a.m.

Thread: Markyanafinanevpane

An expensive goaltender with term and a top 4 rental defenseman are probably at the bottom of Colorado’s list of needs. Avs are also trading away multiple assets they have control of for the next several years. Not a great partner for that kind of trade with Calgary.

Thread: Calgary conserative selling

Have there been any trades in history that have been an ‘8 for 1’ deal? Seems like something that no modern GM would consider.

Thread: Hanatanevstrom

Flames fan who wants the Oilers to win a cup? That's a whole lot of junk and 2 late first rounders coming back from Edmonton. Campbell alone costs 2 1sts to dump. Value isn't even close to being there.

Dallas deal feels more even but don't think Dallas trades Stankoven so not likely.

Thread: Hanatanevstrom

Would rather keep Freddy, but I understand the desire for him to be involved for Hanifin, someone on the BOS roster has to go, rather it be a Dman with more prospects

Vanecek is worth more than a 5th. ANDERSSON is not going anywhere yet. Mangiapane just extended so not yet

He didn't use it on Lindholm, They've only retained on David Riitich 2 seasons ago. Calgary has made it known that they don't like retaining on players.

Avs decline. Coleman costs more which the Avs can't afford before going into anything else like age, term, fit etc.

Way to many pieces. Boston is not moving Frederic.

Take out everything but Hanifin from Flames.

Take out Freddy and Shatty, add a mid prospect.

Thread: Appreciate respectful feedback and advice

In-season trades virtually never have that many parts. Contenders aren’t moving multiple roster pieces out like this.

Also Columbus passes. They’ve got plenty of mediocre goalies better than Vanecek already.

Thread: TDL Push 20

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Westerner69</b></div><div>Maybe, but the bigger issue is there is no way the Flames take a deal for a potential prospect like Harrison, and I stress potential..... and then have to wait for 2 years for the picks on return. They will get offers for a prospect(better than Harrison, or more picks if not), an immediate lineup fill-in and a first this year or next at the very least..solely IMO however as I am not a real GM or would ever try to pretend I was like 90% of those Armchair GMs out there. I love all the picks but way too far in the future for a team having to make the type of rebuild they have to do with Hubs, Kadri and so in.</div></div>

It’s why I think Boston is going to wait until free agency and save their picks for next years trade deadline. Maybe a small move.

Hanifin would be a great get. The question is what teams will give if the rumors of him wanting Boston is believed.

Thread: Knight of Flames

Replace Girard with Johansen and Calgary considers the Colorado trade... Remove the retention too and they do it for sure.

The Arizona trade is a definite no, the rest aren't quite enough to get it done but are close enough to get talks started.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Westerner69</b></div><div>And what would you feel a good return for Markstrom? Please don't say you are good with Gorgy taking you to the promise land this year.</div></div>

For better or for worse, the Avs have their starter and cannot pay for another, and certainly cannot afford $8.3million for goaltending beyond this season. Feelings aren't getting in the way of numbers here.

And just in terms of actual trade, there is just no way you're getting Girard or Ritchie for a goaltender they will not re-sign.

Thread: Simpler realistic

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Westerner69</b></div><div>I did this assuming that they would sign him to an 8yr extension :)</div></div>

NJD would wait and see on how hanifin fits before an extension.

But again even extended, Hanifin is the type of asset that can be acquired without sending Holtz. Holtz level prospects/young players are virtually never traded especially with 2 years left on his ELC

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 3 at 3:48 p.m.

Thread: One pick one prospect

Replace Holtz with Clarke, Bahl, Vilen, or Stillman. Hope this helps.

I would however take yegor back for a 2nd+Ethan Edwards if that is the ask.

That Colorado trade isn't in the realm of possibility
