<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>phillyjabroni</b></div><div>Not sure why you are acquiring veteran defenseman, since we have a lot of prospects coming up in the next two years. The SJS trade is terrible for the Sharks, since MacDonald is complete garbage. You also don't have Weal in the lineup, which is surprising given the fact that he has player so well with Giroux recently. This goaltender situation is worse than this year, since Neuvirth is a fringe starter and Pavelec is nothing more than a backup.</div></div>

Just not sure why you would want all your young d in the lineup all at once. Haag, Sanheim, and Myers should spend more time in the A. Also I explained the sj trade if you're interested. And lastly with regards to goaltending, philly wont trade for fleury and not sure why you would wanna overpay for Bishop this offseason...remember Bryzgalov?

Thread: Huge rumors swirl in Buffalo today
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LeafsFan</b></div><div><i>I could see a trade like this but it would have to be Kane for maybe Fowler and Stoner?

Anaheim will want to set themselves up for the expansion draft and both Theo and Montour are exempt.

Not saying it has to be this way but would be more ideal in ANA's eyes</i></div></div> I think Anaheim wants to keep Fowler as he's currently their best dman and will try figure out the dman issue for expansion during offseason. Right now they are loaded w/ d prospects so I think they'd move one to get a forward for a deep playoff run. As for Buffalo it makes more sense for them to take a dman that wont be exposed to expansion like Theadore or Montour because they already have to protect Risto, Mccabe, and Kulikov if he re-signs while exposing Bogosian, where if they got Fowler then they would be losing a good defenseman for nothing.

Thread: Trade with buffalo and Anh

Ducks already have guys like Stoner and Holzer...Polak and Hunwick might barley be upgrades over those guys at most so there is no sense for that deal to be made by the ducks. If you wanna get Montour for nothing then that would require the team acquiring him to take on Bieksa or Stoner imo</i></div></div> Anh will add to their depth on d they have 3 injurys on d right now so I do think Anh will have interest in Hundwick and Polak. The Leafs do need Marcus foligno in the worst way. He can skate hit and he's heavy below the goal line and can handle things along side Martin. Check out Edmonton they are a mix of fast and size</i></div></div> I'm not gunna sit there and argue with you on foligno the reason you wanna bring him in varies on team philosophy. I just think there's another way the leafs can get that type of player without giving away a prospect and a second along with Sosh, imo that's an overpayment to what Foligno brings to the table. And ok even if Anaheim has those injuries on d theres potential theyre back before playoffs and even if theyre not they dont need to give away montour to get depth dmen....they could trade later round picks to get guys like Hunwick, depth dmen go for 4th-7th round picks near the deadline. Don't be fooled by what the leafs got for polak and spaling last year that was an outlier

Thread: if you say Fleury is unmovable you're stupid.
Not taking away anything from Rutherford he has two cups and has made good trades for Pitt. But he screwed up last draft and should've traded him then. Not sure as to what he was expecting to happen because Eliott was available and Bishop is still out there, so it's a buyers market out there for goalies and teams knew he would be handicapped if he didn't move him (expansion draft). So yeah they can move him but I imagine they would've gotten alot more last summer then they will now and that's poor asset management on Rutherford's part. I think Dallas would be a good fit but that would require Pitt to take a goalie back and I think Carolina and Calgary would be teams looking for a starting goalie however that depends on if he would waive his NTC to go there.

But but but don't you understand the they have NTC's, they can't be traded! :laugh



<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>zaia81</b></div><div><i> NTC are treated like NMC unless player agrees to move or if the player has a limited NTC such as picks ten teams they do not wanna be traded to.</i></div></div>

zaia, they have NTC meaning they can't be traded to LV without permission from them but they can be exposed to the expansion draft regardless. they aren't being traded in this case, they are being moved which only a NMC can void. Not a NTC.

Its not that hard to look up yourself bud. The site literally has a expansion draft simulator!</i></div></div> Ok? LOL I'm pretty sure Coburn would rather play in LA then go to an expansion team so I don't see why he wouldn't accept and look at my response above genius.

You're right my description was misleading but to state that you can expose them in expansion varies on the limit of their NTC.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div><i>Wish you had done this roster for 2017/2018. With pay increases due Hedman and others, I doubt if Shattenkirk fits into the cap. And quite the assumption that so many of the Tampa players waive their NTC/NMC.

If anything, why sign Shattenkirk before the draft, then you can protect any Dman. And Callaghan will waive his NMC. Vegas isn't going to draft him.</i></div></div> Because Shattenkirk is the best dman available and I know Callahan won't be picked up thats why hes on this roster........I never get any of your points, and yeah Hedman's contract kicks in but Desharnais comes off the books, they have enough cap space in this situation to re-sign Drouin to a bridge deal and sign Shattenkirk and Johnson. Worst case scenario is they bury Greene's contract somewhere
