Thread: Okay lets go
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Devsfan25</b></div><div>Not even considered. Alex Wennberg and Anthony Mantha just went for a 2nd and 4th. Both are worse than Toffoli. Toffoli is getting a 1st+. Lebrun has also said there’s a ton of interest</div></div>

Truscott is a high-quality defensive prospect in the NCAA, it's more than just a 2nd + 4th. The reported ask from the Devils for Toffoli is a pick + prospect, this would meet those requirements.

Also, most of the suitors have dropped out though, they've gone for different options. Florida got Tarasenko, Vegas got Mantha and Hanifin, and Edmonton got Henrique and Carrick. Carolina doesn't buy rentals. Boston doesn't need wingers. Since the Devils never trade with the Rangers, I believe only Colorado and Vancouver are potential trade partners.

Thread: A Team that could actually do it
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>3OA + McTavish + Mintyukov boy you must be smoking something good to think that's a real possibility.

The only reason Vancouver sells pettersson is because they can't afford his next contract, and if that's the case, you're going to get shafted on value. You wouldn't even get the proposed deal.</div></div>

Clearly you don’t watch hockey at all… Pettersson is a top 5C in the league who produces at a 100 point level offensively and has borderline selke level two way ability. Take the Tkachuk trade as a comparible then increase the value because Petey plays C. So to suggest Van wouldn’t even get Zegras and Lacombe with a 1st is absolutely ridiculous. I wouldn’t even be surprised if Van wanted more than Mctavish+ Mintyukov+ this years 1st

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sedin33</b></div><div>How many times have the Senators played well when they have little chance for the playoffs? They need more players like Suter, never said they need more Pintos. I think you said that.</div></div>

Actually the GM said that.

There's a difference between the previous years and this years. Sens have been chaotic and inconsistent under DJ. Under JM, they are finally learning about the details, how to play defensively. They don't panic as much anymore. I would think Vancouver would understand what a new coach who preaches defense and details would do to improve a team.

I don't disagree that they need more defensive responsible forwards. I disagree with your cost of Pinto to simply "change the mix". Management loves Pinto, they aren't trading him for 1.5 years of Suter. They have other assets that they are fine parting with, or just wait til the off-season and hit the UFA marekt.
