Depends on what Nashville could get for Danault but i don't hate it.

Thread: Nsh blockbuster

Nashville would have no scoring wingers to play with Malkin.... his numbers wouldn't recover. Nashville is better sucking it up and paying Joey and trading Ekholm/Forsberg for what they're worth in picks/prospects.

Ekholm has out produced Compher for the past 2.25 seasons. Nashville would never consider a 1 for 1.

Forsberg is pretty much the sole source of Nashville’s offense. If we trade him, it shouldn’t be for less than a vast overpayment

Thread: Seeing what it would look like

it's interesting.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ZiggyPalffy</b></div><div>It would be more about finding a good responsible center for Tortorella.</div></div>

Joey would fit that Tortorella mold a little better then Domi but Joey sortof floats from time to time which i think would tick Tortorella off. From Nashville's perspective, i'd give Domi a shot. The shorter contract is a good selling point if he doesn't work out. From CBJ's standpoint, not sure if they're willing to take the longer contract or revisit the Johansen experiment.

Thread: Blockbuster

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>He would have to waive it to be traded. Skinners production is a direct result of playing on the 4th line or being scratch, so I dont see how its a positive that Johansen is playing in the top 6. Skinner started the year getting 12 minutes a game, Kreuger just hates him, Johansen is getting opportunities and failing</div></div>

NMC travels with the player now. So Nashville would have to accept Skinner with his NMC and protect him in the expansion draft. To me the detractor is, Skinner has 2 extra years on his contract vs Johansen. Nashville also doesn't really have good center prospects (I count Tomasino as a wing as I think that's where he'll end up in the NHL) or anyone to really pick up 2C so trading Johansen creates a void at C.

Both our team have coaches that make more than questionable lineup decisions so it's not like Skinner would come here and be put in a place to succeed.

Thread: Filip

Kerfoot is of no real interest for Nashville. I understand the need to include him for cap purposes but he does nothing for us value wise.

Rosen is an AHL dman.

Brooks is a dime a dozen prospect who at age 24 can't crack the NHL lineup.

So in terms of actual value to Nashville it breaks down to Forsberg (3M Retained) for a 1st in a not so deep draft and a 4th the following year.

Thread: One Way to Change Things Up

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tjm220</b></div><div>Seeing as the first round pick is going to be top five most likely, there is no way in hell the Sabres give it up. Flipping second round picks might make more sense because the Sabres will likely be drafting higher. Otherwise this isn’t a terrible idea, the Sabres have a little more depth at LW than at center, and it gives us a chance to move Staal later on and not need to acquire another center. Of course if they do not retain Taylor Hall they’ll need another LW next year.</div></div>

Nashville is only 2 spots ahead of Buffalo in points%. Moving up two spots in the 2nd round isn’t worth taking on a worse contract.

Nah. We can go UFA shopping for a short term goalie until Askarov comes across from the KHL. We'll try and coax someone to take Joey/Duchene in expansion but if we're exploring a rebuild then we have all the cap in the world to hold onto Joey/Duchene

Thread: I read this rumour

That'd be a good move for Nashville IMO. Nylander is quite good and still young/locked up for a while. Dermott frees Nashville to trade Ekholm and Liljegren could free Nashville up to trade Fabbro if they really wanted to. Trading those two could net some good forward talent/prospects coupled with Nylander could give Nashville a youth infusion and turn things around. A top 5 pick in this draft could get Nashville a LHD replacement for Ekholm long term while Dermott fills in temporarily. It would signal Nashville is packing it in this season but they should do that anyways since it's near impossible to come back from the start we had.

Not sure why Leafs would do it though... Forsberg is the better overall players at the moment but Nylander still has some room to grow. Dermott is a good cheap dman and Liljegren is a good prospect.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>Skinner would have to waive his NMC, so that wont factor in. Johansen wouldnt be a center in Buffalo so their is no bonus points there. Both have similar numbers, Skinner has better advanced stats, Johansen has barely more points.

Skinner 20-21: 0G 1A 1P in 12 Games - full season pace of 0G 7A 7P
Johansen 20-21: 0G 4A 4P in 10 Games - full season pace of 0G 33A 33P

Skinner 19-20: 14G 9A 23P in 59 Games - full season pace of 19G 13A 32P
Johansen 19-20: 14G 22A 36P in 68 Games - full season pace of 17G 26A 43P

Johansen makes less, has a shorter contract, has no trade protection, and has outproduced Skinner this year and last. In Nashville, he's a 2C and the next best C is Jarnkrok... which is a terrible option.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb 18 at 7:26

Thread: Sabres ASAP

Easy pass from Nashville

Johansen > Skinner

For as lackluster Johansen has been this season, he's still out produced Skinner. Johansen is a center which is a more desirable position. Skinner has a NMC which requires protecting in the expansion draft whereas we can expose Johansen if wanted. Johansen has 4 seasons after this one and Johansen will be 32. Skinner has 6 seasons and Skinner will be 34.

Jarnkrok >= Mittelstadt

Jarnkrok is better if you go by how they are in the NHL now. Mittelstadt gains ground if you believe he can still develop into a NHL caliber forward.

Thread: Nashville Blockbuster Thoughts

Too many moving parts to be viable for this season. Nashville is down the drain this season but Edmonton is still in it for now but by the time the quarantine on all these players is up and missing some key players in the lineup they may fall out of contention. I don't think the value is bad for either side though.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheLastOfUs</b></div><div>I mean danault is only going to be 28 soon, he would still be one of your youngest C and is a monster on D....Kulak would be one of the younger D also, can maybe give Mete instead of kulak but would take the 2nd away.

I just don't think Nashville should be in a win now mode. We don't have any scoring wingers outside of Forsberg and Arvidsson and our prospect pool is thin on that front. Danault would be a fine C but without anyone to score on his wings his points will drop like Duchene and Joey's have this past year or two.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb 17 at 11:18

Thread: Maybe

Value probably isn't bad but Nashville should be getting prospects/younger instead of treading water. Our biggest problem on forwards is that we don't really have anyone outside of Forsberg that can put the puck in the net and this doesn't change that.

Nashville doesn't really have a spot for Bjork though... he isn't really a top 6 and Nashville is already jammed in the bottom 6. So I see this as a 1st + Capdump + player we don't need for one of our best trade chips. We can do better then that.

At first, I looked at it and said “that’s a huge overpayment for Rinne” I’ll definitely take that as a Nashville fan... then I saw Koskinen had another year at 4.5M and thought... is that enough for me to want to pay an underachieving goalie 4.5M next season....
