Thread: Chicago Blockbuster

Yeah I get it but with full nmc they control their destiny so the return on rentals with nmc is never anything crazy.

Rutta first pair LHD is scary.

Imagine like 10 years ago telling people you would have Crosby Malkin Toews down the middle at some point lol</div></div>

They could've, they decided to draft Jordan Staal with the 2nd overall pick in the 2006 Draft (Toews went 3rd and Nick Backstrom went 4th). Crazy fact is that they did end up with the 5th pick in that draft with the legend himself Phil Kessel

Thread: Kane it happen

It is fun to imagine for sure just wonder after the Hagel deal what it would cost to make that happen. Although Kane has a full NMC so limits the return.

I'm basing this off of GMJR giving up a 1st and top prospect for him the year prior. He obviously likes the guy.

"Perfect" in November and December during the dog days against Vancouver/Seattle is a lot different than vs Washington/Tampa/Boston/NYI in April/May is all that I'm suggesting. We have to acknowledge the difference in play during those periods whether we like it or not.

Thread: Kane and Able

All I know is Chairot was one of the better D in the playoffs last year and he plays more of a playoff style that we don't have on the backend. The price of a 1st is crazy so I figured a 2nd and a B level prospect (french) should help. I really don't believe in Ruh or Friedman to play in the post season and POJ is left handed and too inexperienced. Just a different look is all I was going for with this one.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>West_Virginia_Take_Me_Home</b></div><div>I wouldn't go after PK or Pavelski.</div></div>

You have to sell tickets and I think bringing in 1 or both players would do that for the fanbase. We look at these things way too much from the hockey side, where we need to realistically understand that this is a business. Say what you want about PK's performance but bringing in a former Norris winner with the personality that he has for 1 year when realistically NJ's pool of exp draft talent is thin anyway to me is a no brainer.

Yeah dude I just want to see other options you just never know what can happen as we've seen and the good thing about Rust is we know he can play either side up and down the lineup.

Thread: Outside opinion

3 1st round picks in a deep draft?! Huge! I've said for years if you're rebuilding then rebuild trade anyone that isn't apart of the long term future and get prospects and picks. The fact that they got both a 1st and prospect for Coleman is really impressive and quite frankly shows the desperation the win now teams are in. If I were a Devils fan I'd be extremely excited for the future! Really intrigued to see what happens next with Simmonds, Subban, Vatanen and Palmeri.

Thread: Re-worked MIN trade

As a Pens fan I love the Lowry deal, however not too keen on giving up a 4th rounder with all the picks we have lost. Any chance we could change that 4th to a lower/mid level prospect or current roster player?

So why are they playing one of the best 2-way centers at wing? Honestly assumed they would rather have a natural wing in Galch and a proven goaltender instead but you're probably right... <a href="https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/teams/edmonton-oilers/line-combinations/" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/teams/edmonton-oilers/line-combinations/</a>

Thread: Can Marino be a 2 RHD

Are the Penguins going to win with Poulin Addy or this next first? No, however you will have a legitimate shot with Hall so you need to squeeze as much out of this window as you can. We don't have the prospect pool that others do and it's an in division rival so yes we will most likely have to overpay to make it happen. Personally I'm willing to make that happen for one more shot at hockey immortality. We all know as pens fans the end of the road is coming so I say F-it lets do it.
