<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RazWild</b></div><div>A lot of it is just us fans being Armchair GM's in our own right. And a lot of it is awful, as a lot of people don't have a good sense for player values.

Stay mindful and keep a keen eye on what other commentators place value on certain trades or player values. I would also look specifically at a larger consensus among a fanbase on where they value their players over any one individual and then where the larger community at large tends to view those same players as well.

<a href="/users/RazWild" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@RazWild</a> that is very true. I have been a dedicated Wild fan for over a decade and I use both analytics and the eye test to give me a very good feel for what players' values are. I generally pay very little attention to what a particular fan may value a player at because many people do not know how to value players. But at the same time, I am hopeful that I'll meet people here that watch the league closely and are able to accurately value players with an analytical eye. For example, many people actually believe that Drew Doughty is better that Jared Spurgeon. Doughty has the cups and the reputation, but Spurgeon is better than Doughty at this point in their careers, especially according to the analytics. I also pay very close attention to what coaches and GMs say because they are the ones making the decisions.

PRO TIP: Use the quote button to reply to comments otherwise people won't always respond to you. Using the quote feature will give them a notification that allows that quoted person to see that someone replied to one of their comments and vise versa.

For what it's worth I think they protect Dumba and then make a side deal in order to protect everyone else.</div></div>

RazWild, thanks for the tip! I've been using CapFriendly for a few years but haven't made an account until today, so I'm glad to be part of these great discussions. CapFriendly does an awesome job keeping everything in the NHL up-to-date and having interactive features like Armchair GM. It allows us as fans to guess what might be going on in the minds of NHL GMs and executives.
