Thread: Making a splash
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Billy739</b></div><div>That's like saying "dont select Matthews when you can draft a Lefreniere , Hughes, Dahlin or Hischier "

Petterson in his 1st three years in less then 10pts shy of a Point Per Game Status on a team that just terrible with bad ownership , worse management and questionable Coaching.Imagine what he could do on a real team with Resources and Ownership to make Aggressive moves.

For the 2nd time in NHL history an Owner has come in paying a Kings Ransom to get the best possible players available in the Expansion.
Unlike years past Brand New Teams making the Playoffs or even a Conference Final isnt unheard of.

As long as Petterson doesnt get any form of NMC
This deal benefits Seattle a Lot short term and does no harm Long Term in any light despite the high cap</div></div>

More like “don’t select Pettersson when you can draft Draisaitl, Matthews, Crosby, or Ovechkin.” That’s the level the next few top picks are gonna be at, and it’s not worth throwing that away even for a young 1C like Pettersson

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>So wait... you think the Blues would boost their PP by trading Schwartz away to gain Ritchie (to say nothing of the monstrous gulf in their 5v5 worth)? I find it hard to believe anyone could imagine this trade is reasonable. Which is odd, because the other offers are at least in the ballpark or better.</div></div>

Admittedly any trade involving Ritchie would be an attempt to pull the wool over another GM's eyes, so to speak. No, Ritchie isn't very good at 5v5, but maybe another GM that values power forwards and whose team needs help on the PP could be convinced to swap one of their middle 6 forwards for Ritchie. To be fair though, Schwartz is likely to walk in the offseason and the Blues would still get a decent prospect and 1st out of this trade, as well as the opportunity to keep Ritchie beyond this season if he plays well.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Userunknown</b></div><div>Chabot likely would have been used as trade bait playing behind Chara, Krug. With an all offense no defense guy in Krug on the left side they did not want another in Chabot. They talk the shutdown guy instead. I did not like it but it was not crazy.

Boston was not drafting a center with those picks with Bergey and DK in their prime and locked in their top 6 roles for years.

Only pick that was way off base was Senyshyn. Should have been Boesser.</div></div>

Yeah, Connor isn't THAT much better than DeBrusk. I'm convinced that if you took away Scheifele and Wheeler, replaced them with Krejci and Kuhlman/Kase/all the guys they've tried at 2RW the past few years, and asked Connor to actually commit to playing defense, he would be a 35-point player. Vice versa if DeBrusk got set up by Scheif and Wheeler and was told to just go out and score goals then he would probably put up 40
