Thread: if he isnt wanted anymore
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nhl_oilers</b></div><div>I can’t see Calgary accepting that. Caufield will be a top 9 forward, Tatar that may not resign with Calgary, Lehkonen which is a good bottom 6 players, a first and a second for Tkachuk. Tkachuk is really good, and that’s a guy they should definitely keep if they want to be a good team in the future.</div></div>

So dylan Holloway will be a top 9 forward as well since he been outplayed by Caufield in Wisconsin. Caufield is A top 5 prospect around the league. You probably doesn't have a fk clue who Caufiled is. He produced at a rate that only great player had in NCAA at 19 years old. He is right their with players like Kyle Connor, Paul Kariya, Martin St. Louis, Zach Parise, Dany Heatley. The kid can score goal like no one can't. come on dude

Thread: what if
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>I agree with you on the lack of centers in NY. Doesn't matter how good the wingers are, Filip Chytil isn't a 1c if Zibanejad walks.
But if they offer up Lafreniere, they will have plenty of centers to chose from.



None. But is a home-grown kid, grew up a Ranger fan, plays center, and is the best prospect currently outside the NHL. NYR would be nuts not to accept a Zegras one-for-one swap for any of their wingers.</div></div>

I agree that Zegras look like a stud but he is their only center in their organization that can take Getzlaf place. Centerman are so hard to find in this league, they almost never moved. The best prospect maybe that not but he is right their with Drysdale, Caufield, Byfield, Seider. Seider have been absolutely fantastique the past 2 season against men. He would probably be Detroit best defenceman.

Thread: what if
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>buchnevich89</b></div><div>Why give up on Lafreniere after like 15 games? He has fine underlying numbers, on ice sh% is super low. All of a sudden people Tim Stutzle is better and now Lafreniere's value is the same as Kotkaniemi + a 15% chance of an nhl player? This is like when Tampa Bay almost traded Stamkos to NYR back in the day for a package of players like Dubinsky, Callahan, Girardi. Can someone give a reason why Lafreniere's value is different now than the beginning of the season other than the fact that at 19 he has 1 point after 15 games?</div></div>

i was pretty clear in the description that New york move him not because he isn't good but because they absolutely suck at center. Just take a look at the past 20 stanley cup teams and look at their center line.

Thread: Lafreniere
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Josh</b></div><div>Rangers coach doesnt know how to deal with talent or kids. Andersson, Kravtsov, Kakko, now Lafreniere. Quinn probably wouldnt use KK, so it's not helping the Rangers in any way.</div></div>

Maybe the players you drafted are just not good enough. Andersson haven't done anything good in LA. A coach will always use the best players he have in hand. I Think that it's something like 10% of the players drafted end up having a played 500 games or more. The biggest issue New York have if no that Zibanejad as become Zibanejad again they have no production from their center. If know one distribute the puck how can the winger do their thing. Just look at the great team in the league, the only commun thing is they have great centerline.

Thread: what if
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>As a NJD fan, I fully endorse this deal

But NYR not getting right value for him here...make the pick a 1st, and add a young forward /prospect</div></div>

Montreal have no need to had anything. Centerman hokd much more value in this league then winger. Just look at what Winnipeg had to gave up for Dubois. Being a first overall pick doesn't make is value higher. If the draft where to be redo It would be Lafreniere but Stutzle that would have gone first. This is a hockey traded just like Columbus traded Johansen to grab a Jones. at this exact moment there is no question about who is the best players. I mean Lafreniere play the wing and barely fallow the play. Kotkaniemi have been a reliable center who haven't had much playing time and still produced.

Thread: If flames are out of the playoffs by trade deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>flamesfan</b></div><div>None of those players are even close to mangiapane and neither was Byron ever, have any of those players ever been a selke favourite? And Tatar would help Calgary but he wouldn’t help much because their problem is with coaching. Tatar is a very good player and a really good scorer, but mangiapane is the flames best player so far this season and he is a top player in the nhl right now</div></div>

Where in your imagination Mangiapane became the favorite for the selke?? A mean even if he had a oustanding season, Patrice Bergeron and Mark Stone are far ahead. A guy like Cirelli, Couturier, O'reilly, Point. A mean i done talking with you, you live in some king of parallele universe where marginal players are suddenly the best players in the league. I'm done!

Thread: If flames are out of the playoffs by trade deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>flamesfan</b></div><div>They arent scoring well cause their coach not their players Tatar wouldn’t help Calgary and mangiapane is a rare player he has been the flames best player this year he is miles better than Byron, most teams don’t have a player like mangipane, he’s a selke favourite. Also last year mangipane had 17 goals in 68 games so he was on pace for 20. Tell me the 15 players that are like mangipane</div></div>

he is better then Byron today yeah probably but he is exactly Paul Byron 3-4 years ago. Radek Faksa, Adrian Kempe, Arturi Lehkonen, Chris Thierney, Lars Eller, Nick Bonino(maybe not anymore), Zach Hyman, Andrew Copp, Blake Coleman... all these players would have a similar impact and there many more that could replace him. Have you listen to yourself? How a 6 consecutive 20 goal scorer wouldn't be needed in any team? I mean come on man you can do better then that. I like to say that i don't think that Calgary would be looking for this kind of return for Gaudreau, but that doesn't explain that Mangiapane delirium. Tatar is a better players overall and there not even a debat to have here. But that doesnt make Mangiapane a bad one, he is just a more average guy.

Read this, mangipane is an amazing player who is extremely underrated</div></div>

I know all about Mangiapane, he is a good all around players. Just like Paul Byron was a couple a year ago. Great speed, can play anywhere in the line up. Extremely responsible defensively but they are utility players. You need to watch other game then Calgary body. I can easily find 15 players that could be swap for mangiapane and would do about the exact same. Tatar is a proven 25 goal scorer. Some year their team that do even have a 25 goal scorer. I like Mangiapane and i really think that you need a couple of them to be a good hockey team but in a utility role. Why do you think the flame have such a hard time scoring goal?
