Thread: Draft Day Moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shanesaw9</b></div><div>Islanders trade aside, the Philly trade feels like too much of an overpay.

Basically 5th overall for 13th, 26th, Dvorak (27th + 2024 2nd Round Pick), and Mailloux (31st). You can get a good prospect at 13th overall and keep the rest of those assets or use them in a better deal.

Would love to get Nemec, and you're right it will cost a lot but that's too much for me.

Edit:
For comparison I wanted to see what the draft pick value works out to, reference https://www.google.com/amp/s/soundofhockey.com/2022/06/06/examining-the-value-of-nhl-draft-picks/amp/

5th = 484

13th = 310
26th = 175
Dvorak (27th + 2nd Round) = 203
Mailloux (31st) = 139

TOTAL = 827

Not sure how good this chart is but it should give you an idea of how much of an overpay this is. You could probably take out one of Dvorak, Mailloux, or 26th overall and still get it done.</div></div>

Totally agree that this feels like an overpay but I don't see a reason for Philly to trade out of that spot unless they significantly improve next season. DVO adds needed center depth and trading JVR opens up 2.5m for them to go after another FA. I think it would be realistic to offer this trade without Mailloux or 26 initially but it might be necessary to eventually include it to tip the needle. There really isn't any precedent for this type of trade so it's a shot in the dark.

Thread: New Habs Mantha
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>redw1n9s</b></div><div>No, it's not. Brayden Schenn isn't even close to as good (or valuable) as Mantha.

Why in the f*ck would Detroit trade their best forward - a guy they clearly deem as franchise worthy - for an undersized, borderline 2/3C who is going to ask for too much money. You people are utterly clueless and it pains me.</div></div>

Dude. I was only talking about contract comparables here. This is how it's done around the league. The comp was also Domi to Schenn, not Mantha.

Obviously I see Mantha as a better asset then Domi which is why I added two 2nds in a deep draft and a LHD that fits into your lineup. There's a trade to be made here because both team's can help the other. There's also something to be said about whether Mantha can put pressure on Detroit if he wants to go closer to him OR go to a team not currently rebuilding.
