Thread: MTL AND EDM COULD WORK ON A BLOCKBUSTER PER DREGER

Man the comps are there. Rittich, Korpi, Desmith, Adin hill. You could probably sell someone up to a 2nd with great negotiating skills, but the list of successful goalies who weren't good at either the KHL/AHL/NHL level until they were 26 isn't long. Best example is probably Rittich, who again didn't pan out into anything after 2 solid years in Calgary at age 26/27.

Robin Lehner at 1.1 million dollars, 28 years old, who had a 3rd place vezina finish the year before, was in the middle of a 6th place vezina campaign, and had a 7 year quality track record with 0 injury history at the time got a 2nd and a 5th

Kovy is a solid 3rd pairing dman who can handle sheltered 3rd pairing minutes. Teams are going to want that depth/injury insurance as either a 6/7D. But he doesn't have upside and he doesn't have a track record with bigger minutes, he's not going for that much.

Thread: Moving out the UFAs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>phillyjabroni</b></div><div>Turcotte has had concussion problems the last few years which have impeded his development and should be taken into account when assessing his development curve. I agree he doesn't and won't hit his DY potential, but in his first year when he is healthy, he has played well so far. I can agree that maybe Turcotte wouldn't be an ideal fit for Calgary or optimal in a Zadorov trade, but my comment was related to saying he's "essentially a bust/AHL player".

As for Bjornfot, he's not anything more than a 7th or bottom pair defensemen at this point. Didn't comment on his status because I agree with what you said.

I'm not super bullish on Zadorov netting a 1st rounder, but would think his value is similar to Gavrikov from last year's deadline.</div></div>
Sounds like you know better than me, so I defer to you on that. Sorry if I come across like jerk lol, having a bit of a manic day lol.

So basically something like a 1st + Klingberg + 3rd FOR Zadorov + Grier

Without retention it’s okay and nets a 1st at least, just not sure about wanting/needing Klingberg or whether we could flip and for what. Many are saying TOR should add at least a 2nd to dump him alone
