Thread: If they dont re-sign malkin and letang
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wildnochance</b></div><div>Wrong again because it's fiala who Guerin wants to move. To think your bad faith proposal would ever gets dumba is funny. He would easily get a 1st even deadline. Go for another player then. Yeah a rhd is so bad, yet you want him. Rasmus and worse players with 1 year have gotten more. Again, Guerin doesn't want to trade dumba and it's fiala being traded</div></div>

lmao okay, keep him then. If you genuinely wanna keep dumba over fiala..... i got no words. Sure the price could be a bit better, a prospect or 2 and a 2nd for dumba is fair to me. If you overvalue him to more than that then you are welcome to keep him. Deadline prices are a lot different than offseason prices..... just thought you should know that if you didnt.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DeadWingsv2</b></div><div>Detroit can hit the cap floor just fine without taking on players that don't help us. Kapanen is redundant and nothing special, we'd take him for free, but we're sure as hell not paying for him. Pettersson is a good fit and is where the 3rd would go for. I don't think he's a cap dump either, but Pittsburgh brass seems to according to recent reports and a 3rd is more than generous due to that. Detroit is not looking to move on from Veleno or Zadina. Zadina has had a slow development, leading to BS speculation, but he has done things the right way and Detroit is not giving up on him. People calling him a bust are just ignorant - The guy had his first 2 seasons during a global pandemic and Blashill HORRIBLY mismanaged him. He still has a very high ceiling, and we are not giving up on him without at least giving him a full season with a new coach, proper usage and consistent line mates to show what he really is.</div></div>

thats fair about Zadina, as i said a depth player in exchange could be better. Maybe a PKer bottom 6 guy for Kappy who you could sign and see how he does, i think for a detroit team looking to take the next step he would be a good speed addition to your bottom 6 for pretty cheap. Seems like a low risk high reward situation to me. If he stinks, trade him or just let him walk in FA. Zadina I just heard detroit was pretty low on but as you said that is probably just BS. I do believe he has a much higher level to reach yet. The same ppl who say Zadina is a bust are the same on here in the pens fan base saying Petterson is a cap dump, they dont watch hockey 40 games a season let alone know what theyre talking about. Just over reacting to another first round exit cuz they are spoiled and arent used to or know the luck involved with playoff hockey.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DeadWingsv2</b></div><div>Nope, Detroit isn't doing that. You can have the 4th, but Zadina is going nowhere. We don't even want Kapanen and reports are that Pittsburgh might dump Pettersson, so, one single 3rd round pick at most... For both of them.</div></div>

Detroit needs to hit the cap floor, Kappy is a young fast depth player the red wings would be smart to take a flyer on. Petterson is a good player, he is not a cap dump. Him and Marino were playing elite hockey in that series against the rangers. I couldnt remember if it was Zadina or Veleno that detroit was looking to move on from but id be happy with another depth player in return instead. As for picks, i think a depth player for a 2nd pairing D and a top 9 player is pretty one sided so a pick would make it more balanced.

Thread: best 2 way team
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bsilk18</b></div><div>Hey man, I really didnt think that Crosby had a great defensive game but I could be wrong!!!
But yeah Matthews for Cirelli and move Marchy up
At least swap Crosby and ROR</div></div>

Having watched him for so long, i think if the point of this ACGM is to have the best defensive offensive players, then Crosby should be here. He will probably never win a Selke, but he was 4th in voting last year if i remember right. you wont see him on the PK often because why risk putting your best player out there blocking shots when you can deploy other bottom 6 forwards that can do the same thing and then throw crosby out there as soon the PK is done. He does get PK time sometimes due to certain injuries and stuff. But yeah, swap ROR with Crosby, Move that 4th line to 3rd.
