Thread: URGENT LHD
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Salzy</b></div><div>Comparing a number 1 Dman in Lindholm to a number 1 Dman in Jones is terrible?

Lindholm is much closer to Jones than Muzzin.

Play style when looking at #1 defenseman doesnt alter the value that much.

Saying those trades dont affect Lindholms value is an insane concept to me, all had one year left, all were on basement teams, all were the number one Dman on their teams?

They have more in common than not in common

Not sure what makes that comparison terrible but glad to see you're in a good mood this morning :tearsofjoy

Have a good day!</div></div>

Ah yes! The guy who has a career high of 34 points (which was 7 seasons ago btw), and is coming off missing almost 70% of last season due to injury is most certainly worth the same same as the 2 other main defenceman that got traded just because they all had 1 year left on their deal. Great logic!

Try not being bias. Lindholm doesn't carry that much value, and just because he's a #1 d-man on Anaheim doesn't mean he's a #1. I can name 32 defenceman of the top of my head that are better than him, so how is he a #1 if he can't even be ranked within the top defenders of the league? Just because he plays top minutes on a terrible Anaheim defence? That's not how it works.

But have fun waiting for 2 firsts and a top prospect! You're gonna be highly disappointed when Anaheim doesn't get anywhere near that kind of offer!

Thread: Suter seeking term
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wrigley29</b></div><div>can I ask where you saw him asking for a 4 year deal?
yesterday, one of the reporters had him deep in talks with Dallas.</div></div>

Thread: How I think Lou going to navigate the Offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kawhislaugh</b></div><div>No it’s clear that you can’t afford Carla move at his price and sorokin on a new deal so you need to move varlamov. There’s no value in giving up multiple picks to help you out of cap issues. Cap space is the most valuable asset this off-season, wait and see, teams needing to dump contracts will have to PAY UP. Even for guys who have performed.</div></div>

This is not a cap dup Varlamov put up vezina caliber numbers this year, he has two more years on his contract. If the isles don't want to move him they can move Leddy. Varlamov true value is worth a low end first but because there are so many goalies on the open market I lowered it to a second, I also put a third to replace a B prospect. The oilers help is not necessary and all the agms made on Varlamov in the past agree that his value is between a first and one second.

Thread: Garland
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wrigley29</b></div><div>Didn't say he wasn't. That price though, he is not for the NYI. if that were really the price, CAR or COL, who have a young team and great prospect pool are the teams that would be in a on him.
That kind of move for the islanders, all of those high pieces for 1 player is not their move.
I'm not against making a big move. I'm not against trading picks or prospects, just not everything you have to move for 1 player.</div></div>

I still think it’s worth it because we’re not giving up Dobson, wahlstrom, beau or sorokin. It is highly unlikely those picks turn out to be better than garland and we’d lock him up long term. I’m not a fan of giving up picks + prospects for forsberg because he’s only signed for another year and he’ll likely walk, but garland is a star and he’s still young.
