Thread: An Actual Good Marner Trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CeciGOAT</b></div><div>That’s not the point, I know he will regress. You can’t say bjorkstrand is comparable to marner just because the advanced stats say so. I wouldn’t trade marner for something like Bjork and a first because they’re not close in value. You wouldn’t trade barzal for bjork and a first becaue barzal is clearly better even though the advanced stats disagree.</div></div>

It’s not just the advanced stats. The past two seasons he’s been above the 95th percentile in goals per 60 min. He scores goals at an elite rate on a defensive minded team. Add to that he’s an elite defensive forward, what else does he have to do to be considered a 1st line player?

I wouldn’t trade barzal for bjorkstrand because it’s a lot harder to find an elite C than an elite winger - but they are close in impact the last TWO seasons.

that's a lot of numbers for a guy who's 53 spots lower in point totals over the last 3 years and a guy who's 52 spots lower in primary assists

marner gets even better the more recent I make the charts too, I'm actually padding Bjorkstrands stats by going back further in time lol. Over 2 years Marner is 5th in points, he's 63rd, Marner is 2nd in primary assists and he's 73rd

Thread: Stamkos
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>Let's look at this proposal from Montreal's perspective. MB has said multiple times that they view KK as the 1C of the future not Suzuki. They feel like KK has a higher ceiling and Suzuki will be a great 1B option. Stamkos is an elite goal scorer no doubt about that but would you give up Cirelli + Foote + 1st + 2 2nds for Kane? That is basically what your asking Montreal to do here. Both Kane and Stamkos are aging stars on expensive contracts and neither are really worth that much of the future. Sure the Habs are looking to compete now but our current lineup allows us to do that even without a superstar. Sure it will be harder but it is not impossible. If we move KK our Center depth sucks we would have Suzuki and Danault followed by Poehling who can't even crack our lineup as a winger and Evans who is a solid 4th line center but that's about it. After them the talent really drops off to Hillis and Teasdale. No I think Montreal likes their lineup better with KK and Suzuki.</div></div>

Hold up. This ain't my trade, and I did say originally that there's too much going Bolts' way.

What I'm saying is that I like that once in a while some people actually see that Stamkos has high value. Usually the moves are like Strome+1st for Stammer or something as disappointing...I've even seen some moves where TB would have to pay to get rid of the guy...
