<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SupremeBone</b></div><div>1.) Because Middleton is a LD that the team can't invest more assets or cap in than they already have.
2.) In line with the above, they'll already likely be looking to divest from Kulak despite his effectiveness.
3.) Broberg is a talented, young, and likely very affordable option for a team focused on winning to have.

As for him "leaving in FA", he's only just now going to be an RFA for the first time so he can't just up and leave. He'd need to either be traded (which I believe would be against EDM's best interests) or be offersheeted, if he's even eligible for such (which I don't think he is).

Lastly, he's 22 and there doesn't need to be this panic about him not being on the team already. 22 and 23 are completely normal ages for Dmen to secure a spot in the NHL.</div></div>

Edmonton has never spent the time and effort to develop a high end young defensive prospect. What evidence aside from "economics" is there to suggest anything else?

We’ll look for a better backup goalie &amp; not have to trade Krebs to get it
We are happy with Krebs &amp; your commentary just shows u know little of what’s going on in Buffalo
Maybe stick to your own team sir?
Bc this is just absurd for the Sabres
ZERO CHANCE</div></div>

Everyone outside of emotional Buffalo fans knows exactly what is going on with the Sabres. Krebs is just a guy in hockey, won't move the needle on any team in any way. I know who he was traded for and where he went in the draft but he will have a long career in the bottom 3 or 6 and that is about it. There are far better prospects that will have that spot next year.
With that said, Buffalo has been one of my favorite teams for 30 years. The bull**** has to stop with this team, get some proper veterans for the stack of young skill.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pens1991</b></div><div>that's hilarious.

You don't quite understand that you have to give up assets to acquire someone like Guentzel.

If the new rumor is a Giroux like trade then Perfetti would be about as comparable as you can get. 22, 10th over all, has played around 100 games in the NHL. Tippett was 22/23 when traded from FLA, 10th over all, about 100 games with FLA.

That's about as on the nose as you can get in comparison to the deal.

I put Chibrikov in because you don't have a 24 1st and would have to make it a 25 1st.</div></div>

Sorry, TIppett is not comparable to Perfetti. Straight up would be a debate that would only be won by the Jake camp if WInnipeg has a lot of playoff success. One for one might be a good hockey trade. I am not one to have fantasies with young players. Sports fans obviously love gambling.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mr_Gardoki</b></div><div>Typical quantity over quality

It's amazing that people seem to think Jake would somehow get LESS than Monahan and Lindholm when he's the superior player.</div></div>

I think the problem with Jake getting traded is that everyone knows he is signing in Pittsburgh this summer. What Phili got for Claude seems to be the price, the Montreal 2nd is basically a playoff team 1st, Pittsburgh wants Winnipeg 1st next year instead that would be the pick. Maybe another prospect name. Anyway, fans think they know prospects but they just spit out what they read from another source. Also, Winnipeg fans will also **** that they don't need another winger...but they do need another scorer and I am sure the coaches don't give a **** if that scorer plays goalie haha

Thread: High End Future Contenders
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aedoran</b></div><div>I guess when you know nothin' about hockey, correcting my punctuation is the only way you can feel superior. It's a f****** message board! Now if you couldn't understand what I was trying to say, then by all means call me out. Otherwise it really is kind of bush league and it makes you look petty</div></div>

Are you really that slow to think the post was about trading the top 8 prospects for each team. It is an obvious example of the prospects that should make these team contenders for years to come, as the title said. So, if you do not want a reply to a dumb ass question on a message board....do not post a dumb ass comment.
If you assume that I know nothin' 'bout hackey, and I am as emotionally unstable as you; that comment would lead to a lot more examples from me in regards to how superior I feel compared to you.
