Thread: Do it Do it Now

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>YellShoot</b></div><div>Rationale being: Mayfield is much cheaper than Barrie by 3mm and Mayfield has only one season left. Isles need the penalty killing and physicality that Mayfield brings. Barrie is an upgrade on the offensive side of the puck but a downgrade defensively. Isles are looking to gain cap space, not lose it. This deal does not make any sense for the Islanders.</div></div>

Islanders just brought in Romanov, who has the physical & defensive play that Mayfield brings

Thread: next years team i guess 2

I don't get why so many of these are so easy to give up on Kerfoot for nothing just for "change" but aren't willing to move Nylander for something that could actually help? I like it. I'd rather keep Kerfoot and move Nylander for a better return that keep Nylander and move Kerfoot for a replacement level third liner. Kerfoot had 50 points & killed penalties for 3.5. Nylander had 30 more points for 7.

Thread: RIght side OEL plus offersheet

Interesting offersheet.

By no means is Liljegren worth 4.2M per year, and the Leafs wouldn't match. But at the same time, I think the Leafs would be upset for losing Liljegren for a second round pick, and I think the Canucks would be getting a good young D.

Reminds me of kotkaniemi. Not worth the salary, but worth the assets given up.

Thread: If the Leafs are out of a Playoff spot by next TDL

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>Yikes, this is massively awful without the retention. Like, i dont even know where to start</div></div>

Awful for who?

Like ... you don't get McDavid right back for Matthews ...

Again, it's for fun under the assumptions above. IF the leafs have a bad season and they don't believe they can sign AM ... they get back a goalie of the future, a 60 point defensive C of the future, and a top prospect.

Thread: This isnt a bad looking team

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McRanteskog</b></div><div>jesus you are lost here.

Girards not playing bottom pairing, so right off the bat i know you have no clue what youre talking about.
Toews- Makar
Byram - Girard
someone - EJohnson (if EJ isnt traded)</div></div>

he's not now, but he's arguably the 3rd ranked LHD behind Toews & Byram (at least next year assuming Byram continues to grow). This also isn't the first time they've discussed moving Girard because of their left side depth.

Perhaps they could get more. I don't see Drouin as a guy who is as washed up as some believe. Maybe he just needs a change of scenery.

Thread: This isnt a bad looking team

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McRanteskog</b></div><div>Thats a bad looking trade though.

How on earth can you honestly think thats a fair trade?
Often injured bottom 6F in Drouin with one year left on his deal + second round prospect who struggled to produce in the AHL in 20-21 and went back to the OHL in 21-22 + 2nd rd pick

In return for a 23y/o D man with 5 years of term who slots into your top D pairing....</div></div>

I think Jan Mysak is a B prospect who still has some upside, the second will probably be 45th overall or better, and Drouin is still a serviceable top 9 F.

Plus, Girard will be out soon anyways. The Avs need to sign MacKinnon after next year, Kadri/Bura this year ... do they really need a 5M bottom pairing D?

Thread: 2020 Perfect Today

I think I agree with most of this.

I might be taking Raymond - Stutzle - Lundell 1-2-3 though. Raymond just by a hair. Although, Lundell could end up being the best two-way C in the draft, and at the end of the day .. what is more valuable. a 60 point defensive C or a 75 point offensive F? Hard to say.

I don't know why Askarov drops to much though. He hasn't played a game on NA soil (outside of WJC). Impossible to judge.

Thread: 2020 redraft

Lafreniere drops, but not to 12

Drysdale does not drop. He's been top pair since he could possibly be playing in the NHL (Start of last year). He's a top 3 pick in this draft.

Byfield cannot possibly be above Lundell. Lundell has been what Byfield is supposed to be, a two-way center who can produce offensively.

Thread: 2015 Redraft First Round Only Comment Feedback

I appreciate the effort to try to shake things up & spark discussion .... but I don't think Barzal goes above Eichel, even with the injury this season.

Given the chance to have Barzal or Eichel today, I still take Eichel.

Also - just to be petty & particular (I apologize in advance) - but you could re simulate the 2015 NHL draft over and over 100 times & Kaprizov would never go in the first round even though I get he's a top 15 talent from this Draft class

Thread: If Buffalo drafted optimally 2016 - Current

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nhl_oilers</b></div><div>Why this again man? I don’t like these at all! Literally every team in the NHL could do this and be a better team if they courage went back now, and redrafted. If it was a redraft, Buffalo wouldn’t get Zegras, New York would. They need a good center man, I bet you, they would’ve picked him. So yes, this thing is horrible, because you probably wouldn’t get a lot of those played, as the teams before would’ve picked them. Also, if they drafted that well, Eichel wouldn’t have requested a trade, and they wouldn’t have signed Skinner to that huge deal. After they drafted some guys, they wouldn’t get continuous top 5 picks to get the others, because they probably would’ve been better and did better signings.</div></div>

Because I thought it would be fun to look at the lines and see what others thought ... I didn't think it was hurting anybody to share it.

I understand that there is uncertainty with drafts. 2019 - the Sabres needed a C they took a C in Cozens and he will fill the need. But I thought it was fun to explore the option of Zegras, Tkachuk, etc.

I agree. I just thought it would be fun to look at how it would be if the Sabres drafted Zegras instead of Cozens, Tkachuk instead of Dahlin, etc etc.
