Thread: Cooley For Rossi amp Peart
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwildfan336</b></div><div>Defensemen are a bit different but you have some good comps there. He did say that the recent vote and uncertainty are a factor though. I am curious to see what he would do if Keller is not sold on the plan. Apparently they talked before he made his decision.</div></div>

While he was influenced by the decision, from everything I heard coming out of Minnesota the coaching staff expected him and snuggerud back next season anyways regardless of how the vote went in Cooley’s case. Keller stepped into a bad coyotes team instead of taking his 2nd year of college, I imagine he advised him to just take the extra year while Bill Armstrong continues the rebuild. It’s sound advice, and it’s nothing to worry about unless he heads back for his junior season which I just can’t imagine him doing. Two years in college is becoming increasingly popular honestly

Thread: Add Scoring To This Team and They Are a Cup Fav
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MitchJr</b></div><div>What is the plan in ‘Zona - they sold off their best players. bottomed out (again), obtained tons of high draft picks, drafted well and now have some really exciting young talent . But they’re supposed to start the cycle again. I wouldn’t even entertain moving Keller unless you got players back that could help the team get better in the next 3 years. And this ain’t that</div></div>

I think necas and morrow would be a great start if Keller wants out. Personally I don’t think he does, but a 70 point player, a potential top pairing RHD, and another 1st is pretty solid. Move schmaltz for someone like kakko+ and reunite him with Maccelli, bring in Cooley and Geekie after next season along with Guenther getting a full year and things are much better than you initially would think. Colorado had to move duchene and O’Reilly to get to where they ultimately wanted to go, it’s not ideal to move Keller and schmaltz but you could do worse than those deals

Thread: Caps Yotes Blockbuster
Let’s break this down so you can see how awful this trade is. Cooley was the 3rd overall pick last year and as it stands is the #1 prospect in the game pre draft, his value is going to be multiple 1sts himself plus a good prospect. So let’s say two 1sts, a 2nd, and Lapierre.

Arizona would never let Keller go for anything less than a package starting with a top 10 pick, which you no longer have because you’re using it to get Cooley. So out of what’s left in your package, you’ve got a 24 1st, not even remotely in the ball park of what’s needed.

Mantha is a straight cap dump, there goes your 3rd in a best case scenario.

Now we haven’t even accounted for schmaltz, and it was miles short of Keller, meaning this entire thing is hilariously laughed off the phone.
