Mon : Weber, pacioretty

Pit : kessel, sheahan or brassard

Thoughts?

That's terrible for the pens. Weber is out for basically the entire season, he has a shitty contract, and he's rapidly declining. Who know how he'll be when he comes back. Kessel has way more value than pacciorety. So to sum it up a declining player on a terrible contract, a scoring winger who has 1 year left and is coming of a bad year for one of the premier snipers of the game today, and a very good 3rd or 4th line centre.

“ rapidly declining “? Please make an argument because I know you can’t. Please don’t say his feet gave out because he’s never been a good skater he doesn’t rely on skating he’s still a number 1 dman and I’d love him on the leafs with a little bit of retention I’d definitely do Horton+Ziatsev+ for Weber at ( 6 mil )

No from the Pens.

Patches- 30 years old coming off a 37 point season. Has been productive but is he declining?
Webber- missed 56 games and will miss at least half a season this year. At 33 and with that contract, too risky.

Kessel-31 and coming off a 92 point season. 55 more points than Patches.
Brassard- 46 points
Sheehan at 26 and at 6’3 is a very valuable bottom six forward who put up 32 points.

Pittsburgh would lose this trade badly.

Horton, Ziatsev + for Weber $1M retain? Montreal laughs at you Vbb. Whatever your little + is would wipe out Horton and then it's almost Ziatsev for Weber with retaining a mil. That's so bad. Take out Horton and that + better be something pretty damn good more like it.

Not saying Pittsburgh would win the trade ( because the wouldn’t ) but saying Weber Is “rapidly declining” shows you never watched him play and you guys can hit the dissagree button all you want but no one can make an argument for how he’s any less effective then he was 3 years ago. Still a top 10 dman who will still be effective in the nhl until he’s 40+ exactly like chara. Also Patches is still Elite. he shot at an absurdly low shooting percentage this year. If he shot at his percentage from his prievice season he’d have 35 goals.

I wouldn't call Patches elite at this point, but would be interested to see what he can do on a good line.

Depends what you call elite. He can’t drive a line but he can score off the rush like the best in the game.

Omg I actually find myself agreeing with some of vbbvbbs points for once. did hell freeze over? Lol

But I understand the Weber being down for half a season too that makes sense too.

But rumor has it kessel wants out of Pitts and they are trying to trade him. I figure patches would minimize the loss and on a team like Pitt patches and Weber can more than find their stride again while Montreal would address 2 glaring need at once. they would add scoring big time plus get a center they desperately need.

I find he can be one dimensional - and i'm a habs fan. He has the size to be more of an impact player but just doesn't do it.

Fyi, there is a salary cap in the nhl.

Webber has no vaule any more with that contract.
