Thread: Still Work to Be Done
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Treize131</b></div><div>Can someone explain the interest in Zucker?

I'm really not familiar with the Wild so I can only really look at his numbers and as far as term, AAV, and point production goes I don't really understand why him ending up on the Flames is almost a given (at least as far as this site is concerned).

Definitely not trolling either, I legitimately don't understand.</div></div>

He is fast and skilled, and provides some great offensive upside. Defensively he is okay, but he scores well and uses his speed. Evolving Wild (<a href="https://evolving-hockey.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://evolving-hockey.com/</a>) have him as the 30th most effective forward in the league over the past two years. He is quietly very good, by having some good strengths, and few weaknesses.

Thread: Imagine if Neal bounced back and flames get Kadri
Great lineup! That second line would be a gigantic pain to play against and I think that Leafs trade would be one of the few in the history between the two teams that actually works out for both. I don't get how you can send a 2019 4th pick that upgrades to a second if Brodie doesn't re-sign in the 2020 off season, so that pick would have to be a 2020 one (3rd/conditional 2nd with Toronto sending back their 4th in return). I would see if Kylington could play off-side D (like Brodie does as both are great skaters) on the bottom pair and rotate in with Fantenberg. I think McBackup is staying in Carolina, but we could likely get Varlamov with that $2.25M plus some of the remaining cap on a short term bounce back type of deal, or another veteran backup.
