Thread: Rick Nash
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>exo2769</b></div><div>What do you think you're going to get for Nash? NYR has very limited options because his cap hit is sooo high. ANY trade involves eating half his salary...and that's pretty much a guarantee. The cap has nothing to do with talent. It's just the only possible way any trade happens. NYR get's no additional value...because again...they HAVE TO RETAIN. Now look at it from Nashville's poinit of view...he's not a top 6 player on their team. He's a fine player. He can indeed make a difference, but he's a goal scorer that's on pace for his 5th season out of the last 6 being sub 40 points. It's not like he a bruiser or defensive stopper.</div></div>

Rangers retain half. That's a given. His value is Hanzal's value from last year. 1st + 2nd + low level prospect. His season totals are a function of Vigneault who doesn't give his top liners proper minutes. You'll see that he hasn't gotten much above 1100 minutes in the past few years while say Forsberg and Johansen have been clocking in around 14-1500 minutes. That's on the coach. Nash rates haven't changed much. His High Dangers scoring chances have consistently been at the top part of the league. He's on our PK squad and is great there. And he's a super high possession power forward. He gets a 1st + 2nd+ low prospect to be in your top 6.

That's fair. Good analysis! TDL moves do garner a greater return. I think he may get a little less, but I do like your comp. Solid!

Thread: Only way to not rebuild
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Drakin1978</b></div><div>because people realize they have a deficiency and need a piece to help them over the hump, however i don't think arizona is the team for that. If your looking to shed contract TOR or NYI might want Petry or Alzner they are looking for D and we might be able to get better return than a 3rd rd pick. You would be trading a NHL caliber d-man for the potential at 30% the player you pick in the 3rd round makes the nhl and with that most turn out to be bottom 6 or low end d-pairings. Unless you hit the jackpot and your scouting was spot on, but the law of averages are against you.IF drouin continues to play center this team will continue to struggle, he and galls are not centers as much as we would like them to be. Danault would make a better 2 center than drouin and i would not even do that</div></div>

Very much agree with this logic.

Thread: Weber - Leaf perspective
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RobbStark03</b></div><div>Marner, Liljegren and a 1st? Where do I send the flowers to after you drown in Leaf fan tears? (in all seriousness, I would even consider the trade if you removed Liljegren OR the 1st if Marner is included.)</div></div>

As I said, specifics of the trade weren't a concern, other than Marner being included, because his next contract will at least be significant. Young roster player, pick, prospect is reasonable, but this may be the higher end of value, sure. Less than Liljegren or less than a first can be considered, but it has to be Marner or Nylander for it to work.

As someone else said. Weber's a top defenseman. If you can't fit his 8Mish, don't bother dreaming about Doughty, Karlsson, OEL or the like.
