Thread: Forward Depth
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xspyrit</b></div><div>Not going to pay all that for an average 3rd line forward (that got slightly inflated stats for getting Brady Tkachuk ice time, but still poor stats)

Remove the 2nd maybe

And even then, Boucher + Hamara + 4th to upgrade Joseph to Laughton (really not as much as an upgrade as it made out on CF) is too high of a price

PASS

I don't know who people think Laughton is but it's not Konecny


Yeah but what about the dump for Laughton then? :tearsofjoy

Some people really don't understand how this value vs salary thing work

You're not going to get what you think you'll get for Laughton

I mean, Reilly Smith was just had for a 3rd round pick. 2.0 more but a much better player too

Anthony Duclair (same cap hit) was jus had for a 5th and a 4th liner

Joel Edmundson 50% retained was just had for a 3rd + 7th

Ross Colton was just had for a 2nd round pick (better than Laughton as well, and younger)

Toffoli for Sharangovich and a 3rd

Kevin Hayes at 50% retained for a 6th......

Taylor Hall... for FREE

Sean Durzi for a 2nd round pick

Alex Newhook for basically two 2nd round picks...

But of course, Scott freaking Laughton is so much more valuable than everyone else :tearsofjoy</div></div>

There's plenty of deals to indicate players like Laughton can net at least a first. If Nick Foligno can get a first, Laughton easily can. Also he's hardly a cap dump unlike Joseph.
