Toronto: Nazim Kadri

Calgary: Sam Bennet and Oliver Klyington

Or

Toronto: Nazim Kadri And Kasperi Kappanen

Calgary: Sam Bennet and Rasmus Andersson

Trade #1 Sam Bennet is a hard working more physical younger 3 C with potential who brings an element the leafs desperately lack. Nazim Kadri is more suitable for a 2C role he plays the game hard and with passion. Before being demoted to a 3C role he was a consistent 30G man on a week Toronto maple leafs. Kadri pushes Backlund down to 3C on Calgary. Tkachuk-Kadri would be 2nd line teams would hate to play against. Oliver Kylington is NHL ready and would play on the bottom Pairing or on the right side of Rielly assuming Muzzin and Zaitsev are a pair.

Trade #2 Rasmus Andersson would instantly be pinned to Rielly on the top pairing. Right now there is currently only 1RHD In Toronto so Andersson fills a huge need. Bracco is called up to replace Kappanen. Kappanen is brought into take the RW position on the 2nd line in Calgary to make Tkachuk-Kadri-Kappanen

1.) 21 May 2019 15:36:28
Kadri has only scored 30 goals twice in 10 years so that's not being a consistent 30 goal scorer. It's not the purpose of the Flames, or any other team to do trades that will make the Leafs better while weakening their team.

2.) 21 May 2019 19:52:06
Trouba got 50 points once and he’s a 50 point dman according to you. Things have to go both ways, even when you’re a jets fan.

3.) 21 May 2019 20:21:10
The last two years prior to demotion he scored 30 + goals that trajectory shows he’s a 30 goal top 6 guy.

4.) 21 May 2019 23:32:50
kadri and kap are both better than bennett and andersson what's wrong with you.

5.) 21 May 2019 23:41:06
This makes absolutely no sense for Toronto downgrading like this.

6.) 21 May 2019 23:55:02
Good golly Leafs17, you should just admit that you're really a Jets fan. You talk about the Jets constantly. They're in your head!

7.) 22 May 2019 00:22:05
Fans of every base keep calling the jets girls out as they try to downgrade every leaf player. Bahaha!

8.) 22 May 2019 00:17:10
Andersson is the most valuable defender on the flames look at HfBoards they value him more then Girodano and Hanfin.

9.) 22 May 2019 02:41:31
I’m sorry biasjoe, do you not see how my comment about Trouba is directly related with your gf’s comment on Kadri?

10.) 22 May 2019 05:20:48
Its not even bad value tbh but Kadri and Giordano got some beef aha we already got a hated player in tkachuk, having 2 of them won't do us any well. Good value tho

11.) 22 May 2019 18:28:00
I could see this trade happening after July 8th when Marner accepts his RFA offer that the Leafs can't match.

12.) 22 May 2019 20:53:43
Ooh, vbbb opening himself up to his own type of criticism. No chance CGY trades Andersson. And he is worth more than either of the TO players- an up coming top pair D is worth more than a uncontrollable 3rd lone C ( that CGY doesn’t need btw) . And an inconsistent winger who had good flashes in 1 season only and is a RFA. Replace Andersson with Brodie and it’s possible.

20 May 2019 18:01:54
Colorado has tons of cap space and may as well use it. Edmonton has 3 terrible contacts and with this trade they rid 2 of the 3.

Colorado- Shane Bowers And 16th overall

Edmonton- Jesse Puljujarvi, Andrei Sekera, Kris Russel And 8th overall

Colorado: take on two bad contracts but have the space to take them on. They move up 8 spots to select a better prospect Vasili Podkolzin with selecting would be a great option as he is a top 3 talent but is under contract in Russia for 2 years. With the 4th overall they draft Byram or Turcotte. Puljujarvi could excel with a change of scenery.

Edmonton: they free over 10 million in cap space. Puljujarvi isn't progressing well in Edmonton and Shane Bowers ( 1st rd pick in 2017 ) could do good in Edmonton. The also replace there pick with 16th overall where they can draft a defence man.

1.) 20 May 2019 14:18:56
Why would Colorado do that when they can use their cap space and go for somebody like panarin or skinner.

2.) 21 May 2019 14:17:31
Bad.

Russell's contract isn't terrible.
He is overpaid, yes, but he's still a solid top 4 that will be a big difference to your PK (3rd in the entire NHL for Blocked Shots)

Oilers 100% won't trade Sekera now as his value is at his lowest and he looked good when he came back. If he is traded, it would be at the deadline or next years draft when he has some value.

Doesn't make sense for Colorado to take on Russell's and Sekera's contracts when they are building a young team. They could get pretty much what Sekera and Russell offer to a team for cheaper. Also, they don't need to have the 8th overall pick as they are already in the top 5.

Also, explain as to why Shane Bowers ''could do good in Edmonton''. I think you just know he's a prospect and threw him in without knowing anything about him. Shane Bowers is a centre (Edmonton has their centres locked up with (McD, Drai, RHN) and not really progressing in the NCAA.

3.) 21 May 2019 14:21:32
Edmonton doesn't touch this imo. Bowers isn't doing well. Edmonton aren't a contending team and have time to let sekera's and russel's contract run out.

4.) 21 May 2019 20:30:20
Actually TyBa4 funny story I’ve been on the ice with Shane Bowers 4 years ago at AGA ( Atlantic Goaltending Academy) he was one of the shooters there I actually shot a puck and accidentally hit him in the face. He freaked out and got kicked off the ice.

19 May 2019 20:22:19
Not really a proposal but would this make both teams better? Columbus has STACKED defence and Toronto has stacked forwards.

Toronto: Austin Mathews, Timothy Lilijgren And Nikita Zaitsev

Columbus: Seth Jones, Josh Andersson And Brandon Dubinsky ( cap )

* works out cap wise
*Kappanen/Johnsson would then be on block for possible 3C

Toronto- Jones is one of the best young dman in the nhl And is on a great contract he would be insane with Rielly. Josh Andersson is a beast/ hard worker/ physical presence with a scoring touch. Brandon Dubinsky is a cap dump who can play 3C if not bought out.

Columbus- Mathews is one of the best young players in the game and Instantly transforms the forward group. Columbus can live with losing Jones because of their Defensive depth. Timothy Lilijgren provides a potential replacement down the road and zaitsev provides a current 3rd pairing plug.

1.) 19 May 2019 23:27:58
I think there are maybe 3 or 4 true untouchables in the game. except for the Vets like Crosby and Ovi.
McDavid, MacKinnon and I'd say Mathews are the 3 true untouchables.
Personally VB. I think it's a good trade. I just don't see Toronto trading Mathews.
However, I think for both teams this would be great.

2.) 20 May 2019 00:53:49
Ohh I 100% agree Mathews will be a leaf until he’s 30+ ( he’ll sign a huge extension) like I said it’s not really a proposal. It won’t happen but it’s a nice idea. Especially if the leafs could squeeze in abit extra like foligno instead of Dubinsky.

3.) 20 May 2019 04:03:53
I agree with sosa, its a pretty even trade but Jones & Matthews are probably untouchables to their teams

4.) 20 May 2019 14:14:00
Center>>defenceman no from Leafs.

5.) 20 May 2019 14:16:39
Why is Matthews untouchable.

6.) 21 May 2019 23:51:37
Why is Elias Pettersson untouchable?

7.) 23 May 2019 00:48:53
because the Canucks have cap space.

19 May 2019 00:38:04
IMO from what I've been reading on this Mika Zibanajad is one of the most underrated figures in sports history he is a franchise player and a 1 man show similar to McDavid by carrying a terrible team on his back ( Rangers are much worse then Edmonton) Zibanajad is a 90 point player in the right situation with real line mates. Why I believe the Rangers should trade him?This is because he's 26 and by the time the rangers are good he'll be leaving his Prime. Anyway that's my rant this is my proposal.

Philly: Nolan Patrick

New York: Mika Zibanajad

Rangers - Nolan Patrick is posed to become a 2 way 1C ( hopefully a sad-mans Towes ). While Zibanajad is the much better player and Patrick May never be as good but he'll be entering his prime when Rangers are starting to compete.

Philly: Philly is starting to compete now. They have a very solid roster and Zibanajad/Coutorier as 1/2 Cs would be huge. Zibanajad would be Great between Vorchek and JVR.

1.) 19 May 2019 07:33:42
Rumour forgetting 1 important detail and that is not every team takes 10 years to do a rebuild. The Rangers can and will spend to the cap and depending on who they add and which of their prospects step into the line up this year they could easily be a playoff team next season.

2.) 19 May 2019 07:41:31
Your love for zibanajad is on the same scale as your hate for lucic lol in the sense where neither is as good or bad as you say.

3.) 19 May 2019 14:42:37
I disagree habby just look at what he produced this year compared to the rest of the team. Zib really stands out on the Rangers. Also I’m not sayings he’s even comparable to McDavid talent wise I’m saying the way he carry’s the team is similar. Also what you’re saying may be true about the rebuild to some extent but I hope we can both agree there should definitely be atleast a two year window of being a bottom 5 team Lundqvist and Staal need to go. Also they need one or two more elite pieces like Kakko/ Hughes.

4.) 19 May 2019 15:37:46
He's been a 40 or 50 point guy all his career and hit 70 last year sounds a lot like max Domi to me.

5.) 19 May 2019 15:49:57
Well VB if we are judging off of one year then fine. But in his career he’s been a good player but a franchise centre that’s funny. He has never been a point per game player in the NHL he just had a career year with 74 in 82. ( just to put in perspective Domi had 72 in 82). And this was the first year in his career he played all 82 games. He’s a good top line center but franchise is pushing your luck.

6.) 19 May 2019 17:26:09
I’m judging this as a break out year yes also Domi was playing with more talent Montreal is a better team. I don’t think Zib is as good as players like Tavares, Stamkos, Giroux, Hall, Schifele, Malkin, Mathews among others but he’s a tier below imo

He’s in the Same tier as
Benn, Monahan, Paniran, Larkin, Forsburg, Kuznetzkov

If you don’t watch the rangers a lot you may not agree but a few more 70+ point seasons will make this more commonly known.

7.) 19 May 2019 20:20:51
Zibanejad is worth a lot more than Patrick right now.
And the Rangers could be good very fast. Sign Panarin and/ or Karlsson, get Kaako/ Hughes in the draft. And they were already somewhat decent last year. Additional player development from their young guys. And they have a ton of picks. Rangers did it right, great rebuild.
This trade would be very bad for them.

8.) 22 May 2019 06:22:12
It's difficult sometimes to read things from fans that make it impossible to avoid being a little antagonistic and insulting. So I apologize. But you're lost. This is the type of perfect example of a fan that isn't aware of recent history, or what a good player is or how prospects develop etc. That's why when the GM says "rebuild" people get so confused that they don't realize the rebuild is over. They will develop young players. But the Rangers after winning the 2nd pick and trading for Fox now need to add a TOP top FA (Panarin is the only option for many reasons. But he's perfect) Has the OP planned out the depth chart and tried to figure out where the team is now. In one offseason before you even hopefully add Panarin, and hopefully trade for a legit defenseman, the team is bringing in Kakko, Kravstov, Fox, Rykov, Shestyorkin. Plus the college fas they signed. That's it. Rebuild is done. Growth is constant but they have the roster filled with every guy we want to go forward with aside from Miller and we will see who else. And the first line center was the best player and is a legit candidate for a point a game with 2 wings who can get him there. No to this. no to kreider. These are GOOD players. PRIME is not 27 to 29. It's 24-31.

18 May 2019 14:26:29
Rangers- Mika Zibanajad And 20th overall

Canadians- Jesperi Kotekneimi And Johnathan Drouin

Rangers: Jesperi Kotekneimi is a potential elite C that fits the Rangers rebuild age wise. Johnathan Drouin has a ton of talent and a change of scenery could help him reach his full potential. Losing Zibanajad is obviously huge as he's by far the Rangers best player but they are in no position to compete so opting for a Younger high potential C is what I'd do if I were the Rangers GM.

Canadians: The Habs looked very good to start off the year but fell off of an cliff for some reason. I'm assuming they're trying to win now and Zibanajad would make their team much better. He's a true 1C that the Habs lack coming off of a 30 goal 70+ point season on a weak Rangers team I believe Zib would be a PPG player in Montreal. Not to mention he's also on an amazing contract.

1.) 18 May 2019 14:47:19
Value is fair, but I just don't think the Rangers want to trade Zib. He is their best player right now and could very well be the next captain. While I would love to add those two players, the Rangers don't exactly have a lot of roster room anymore either.

2.) 18 May 2019 15:41:03
Understandable but dosent a 19 year old C like Kotekneimi that has tremendous potential not fit in with the Rangers more then a prime Zib?

3.) 18 May 2019 18:36:51
Yeah kotkaniemi fits in way better with the habs plans too.

4.) 18 May 2019 19:36:53
Really habby? You think Weber and Price will be stars when he reaches his prime. I disagree I believe the Habs cup window is small.

5.) 18 May 2019 19:55:02
both assets from NY are worse than either from MTL so I don't think the canadiens would be wise to do this.

6.) 18 May 2019 20:22:26
Zib is worse in what world? He’s a 1C I’d put him on Par with Sean Monahan just hasn’t played with talent.

7.) 18 May 2019 20:24:27
Zabinahwhatever is nothing special. no thanks from Habs.

8.) 18 May 2019 20:45:01
No for KK, I don't mind Drouin for Zib straight up!

9.) 18 May 2019 21:44:53
In the real world vbbbb.

10.) 18 May 2019 23:30:10
You guys are undervaluing Zib by a lot he’d be the best forward on the Habs in the last 10 years by a wide margin and on the leafs he’s up there with Mathews, Tavares and Marner.

11.) 19 May 2019 01:10:54
Would Zibanejad accept a trade to Montreal I wonder? But it does not matter. I believe this is not a good offer for Montreal to accept. They want to get younger too. And Zibanejad is free agent in a couple years. Kotkaniemi is in Montreal for a very long time.

12.) 19 May 2019 07:02:03
I agree with vb.

13.) 19 May 2019 20:13:21
Helll noooooo. Kotkaniemi is untouchable unless we can get a young #1C like McDavid, Eichel, Matthews ect.

14.) 19 May 2019 20:16:14
lol doesn't make any sense for montreal at all.

vbbbvvbb's talk posts with other poster's replies to vbbbvvbb's talk posts

14 May 2019 23:50:19
Who do you guys think your team will lose in the expansion draft next year assuming that it's the same format 7F 3D 1G

The leafs will probably lose Zach Hyman if they keep

Marner
Mathews
Tavares
Nylander
Kadri
Johnsson
Kappanen

Rielly
Dermotte
Player X

Anderson

1.) 15 May 2019 12:22:56
If nylander doesn't have a big comeback season definitely leave him unprotected and add for new team to take him. anywho Chicago won't lose anything significant, shot themselves in the foot by giving Ntc out like candy so got to protect all them. Just got to protect debrincat and strome. Hope the team needs a overpaid defenseman to reach cap floor and Seabrook waives his contract rights to go.

2.) 15 May 2019 14:27:53
Why leave a 90 point player unprotected? That’s what Nylander will score next year.

3.) 15 May 2019 15:19:30
Wow, slow down there. You thing he is going to have a 50% increase to his most productive season one year after he had his worst season?

4.) 15 May 2019 20:27:35
I believe this year went as wrong as it could possibly go I think he will have a similar but lesser career trajectory as Marner.

5.) 16 May 2019 00:47:51
I agree VB that he's going to improve. 90 may be a stretch, however he is talented enough, and with the right linemates, its somewhat possible. I'd say more like 70 points however.

6.) 16 May 2019 04:01:40
Vbb’s I think the leafs will lose or trade one of Kadri, Nylander, Kapanen or Johnsson this year. Hopefully to address a RH top 4 dman.

7.) 16 May 2019 04:44:55
Nylander getting 90pts next year?! 😂
Good one.

8.) 16 May 2019 13:01:57
70 seems reasonable.

9.) 17 May 2019 00:30:40
I also believe they’ll move a forward.

10.) 18 May 2019 13:07:44
Imo Nylander slotted beside Matthews will fetch maybe 60-80 points tops

17 Apr 2019 23:24:49
Apparently it is "100% certain" Subban is moved this offseason according to multiple sources. 29 years old with a 9 million cap hit. Reasons are due to cap concerns but some speculate it is due to injuries/locker room interactions.

Probably won't return much who do you guys think will be interested? He probably wants to go to a big market team. Pittsburgh something around Kessel? Toronto around Nylander? ( hopefully not ). New Jersey could fit him in cap wise and would be a fit but what would NJ give? Either New York?

1.) 18 Apr 2019 06:24:42
Arizona?

2.) 18 Apr 2019 14:08:12
Subban in a Yotes Jersey would be greasy but him and OEL would make a dirty pairing. + they have the cap.

3.) 18 Apr 2019 14:08:27
Montreal!

4.) 18 Apr 2019 16:24:01
@sosa I'd trade alzner for him lol.

5.) 18 Apr 2019 17:52:47
I don't want him back in MTL. We need LD more than Subban. He was a defensive liability most of the time.

6.) 18 Apr 2019 19:10:20
How about we add McCarron to sweeten the deal . lol.

7.) 18 Apr 2019 21:11:54
Even though I don't really want him back i'd go as high as alzner and Weise but that's my final offer lol.

8.) 18 Apr 2019 22:14:06
On another note wasn't his hit on Benn very similar to the one kucherov was suspended for?

9.) 18 Apr 2019 23:11:22
I didn't see the hit .

10.) 19 Apr 2019 03:46:03
It seems like Subban is gaining a reputation as a dirty player, which I hate to see since he was a favourite of mine.

11.) 19 Apr 2019 17:31:02
when he hits someone he falls on top of them and just lays there or sits there on them not letting them up to get back into the play he is a tool.

12.) 20 Apr 2019 22:38:46
I doubt its 100% guarantee since Subban needs to waive to go anywhere they want him to go.

14 Apr 2019 19:19:04
Lehner and the islanders 4th line are the MVPs so far in this playoffs imo.

1.) 15 Apr 2019 01:36:52
Everyone laughed at Lou Lamorello for trading for Matt Martin but that move turned out amazing. Best shut down line In the game by far at the moment.

2.) 15 Apr 2019 04:26:39
Cbj is mvp

3.) 15 Apr 2019 20:49:05
No Cbj isn't Tampa is just playing terrible like absolutely horrendous anyone who watches hockey would agree. NYI could win the Cup if there 4th line keeps playing the way they are.

4.) 16 Apr 2019 00:14:11
Islanders are also playing the worse team in the east imo. Let's see how they do against a good team in the 2nd round. If they are still winning then maybe ill jump on the bandwagon too.

5.) 17 Apr 2019 01:11:44
Pittsburgh the worst team in the east? They’re much better then Toronto. Crosby, Guzentzel, Malkin, Kessel And Letang vs Mathews, Marner, Tavares, Nylander And Rielly? I’ll take Pittsburgh’s core short term.

6.) 17 Apr 2019 15:43:04
Yeah but the problem is they have nothing else Toronto doesn’t have the best depth in the league or anything but they do have an edge on pits on both offense and even defense combine that with most of Pittsburgh’s core is aging and or one hit away from retiring and yes imo they have the worst team of all those that made the playoffs in the east.

7.) 17 Apr 2019 16:44:49
Lol yeah VBBVVVBBBV you can’t just compare half a team. that’s not how hockey works.

Where do you draw the line? The Oilers arguably have a better “core” with McDavid, Draisaitl, RNH, etc. than a lot of teams in the West. Doesn’t mean they are a better team.

8.) 17 Apr 2019 20:32:21
Okay unsportsmanlike I’ll do a in depth analysis for you of lines

1st line

Rust-Crosby-Guzentzel vs Hyman-Tavares-Marner

Pittsburgh wins

2nd line

Hornqvist-Malkin-Kessel vs Johnsson-Mathews-Kappanen

Pittsburgh wins

3rd line

Simon-Bjustad-McCann vs Marleau-Kadri-Nylander

Toronto wins

4th lines are a draw

PP Pittsburgh wins

PK Toronto wins

1st pair

Dumoulin-Letang vs Hanisey-Rielly

Pittsburgh win? It’s close

2nd pair

Matta-Gubrandson vs Muzzin and Zaitsev

Toronto wins

3rd pair

Johnson-Schultz vs Gardiner and Dermotte

Toronto probably wins

Murray vs Andersen I mean this is very debatable I mean Andersen is very good and consistent but Murray is phenomenal at times and really takes it to the next level but can be inconsistent.

16 Mar 2019 03:18:15
If team Canada were to ice a team to play in a hypothetical Olympics next season do you guys believe it's be the best team ever assembled?

Marchand-Crosby-Bergeron
Guadreau-McDdavid-Mackinnon
Stamkos-Tavares-Seguin
Hall-Towes-Schifele
Ex-Jamie Benn,Giroux,O'Rielly,Getzlaf And Marner. 2 of those 5

Girodano-Burns
Rielly-Doughty
Marc Andre Vlasic-Shea Weber
Petrangelo

Price
Murray
Hoaltby

1.) 16 Mar 2019 04:04:23
Gaudreau is an American and there got to be better options then vlasic by now.

2.) 16 Mar 2019 05:33:43
Eww I can’t believe I forgot he was American. Maybe replace him with Marner? And Vlasic is a great Defensive deffensman he'd be on the top PK. The left shot means a lot as it’s a much rarer position that puts him ahead of Subban And Letang.

3.) 16 Mar 2019 13:50:34
Yeah canada is not as strong on the left side and the fact vlasic has been there before probably gets him the nod. But I'd sooner take someone else if it was me, he hasn't looked as good lately.

4.) 16 Mar 2019 14:28:30
I can’t think of anyone else can you?

5.) 16 Mar 2019 14:33:04
Also Sweden’s Deffense is amazing.

Hedman-Karlsson
OEL-Klingburg
Dahlin-Lindholm/ Gustafson

Just thought of Chabot possibly taking MAV’s spot but I think Canada would take the experience.

6.) 16 Mar 2019 15:09:12
How about room for Subban?

Very strong team. for me Team Canada 87 is the best. maybe cause I was just a boy and those guys were my idols as a kid.
But other than Gaudreau thing, good team VB.

7.) 16 Mar 2019 22:35:12
I'd sooner Brodie for one.

8.) 16 Mar 2019 23:42:58
TJ Brodie over MAV? That’s an extremely bold statement.

9.) 17 Mar 2019 06:08:56
Yeah I think he's better it's not that bold of a statement cause I'm sure there are more people that think so too.

10.) 17 Mar 2019 14:34:51
While that Canada roster is superb, I think what’s more impressive is Canada’s depth, and the fact you could ice a “Canada B” (and maybe even a “Canada C” team) that would probably give every team in the tourney (including the A-team) a run for their money, especially in a one-game elimination.

Huberdeau Point Marner
Monahan Barzal Stone
Couture Johannson Konecny
Domi Couturier Gallagher

Keith Subban
Muzzin Parayko
Chabot Ekblad
Theodore / Barrie

Fleury
Binnington / Kuemper
Luongo.

11.) 17 Mar 2019 14:35:01
I really don’t think there is make a post about it if you want.

12.) 17 Mar 2019 16:41:40
I don't want and whether or not the 7 people on here agree with me or not wouldn't change my mind anyway lol.

13.) 17 Mar 2019 19:50:28
Unsportsmanlike you could even add Letang to that roster.

14.) 17 Mar 2019 20:37:09
You’re right the depth in Canada is amazing each of the 3 teams would compete they do something like this in the U17 championships each year.

Canada A-

Marchand-Crosby-Bergeron
Stamkos-Point-Stone
Hoffman-Couture-E. Kane
Marchessult-Getzlaf-Domi

Letang-Keith
Marc Andre Vlasic-Subban
Ellis-Dumba

Price
Crawford

Canada B

Hall-McDavid-RNH

Fowler is also ’Merican.

16.) 18 Mar 2019 04:18:39
Fowler was born in Ontario.

17.) 18 Mar 2019 08:07:57
Subban before Weber imo.

18.) 18 Mar 2019 14:26:34
You should Move to Nashville boom boom.

19.) 19 Mar 2019 12:14:02
Even if Fowler was born in Ontario he’s American and his international team is the USA. Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think he’s allowed to change it. At the very least not as long as he’s playing in the US. A quick google says it’s 4 years competing for new country internationally in non IIHF events, 4 years without playing for old country, and have to spend all 4 years playing only in the new country to change without acquiring new citizenship.

Yeah possibly.

21.) 20 Mar 2019 15:14:13
I wish Habby! At this point Weber is very slow and he's costing us games! Why would I want him in the supposed Olympiques.

22.) 20 Mar 2019 17:31:35
Yeah ok weber is costing us games lol. Go back to bed.

23.) 20 Mar 2019 19:19:07
Lol “ Weber costing games “.

24.) 20 Mar 2019 21:27:33
i lost habby at brodie over vlasic

someone needs to watch the sharks.

25.) 21 Mar 2019 00:29:01
How is Weber costing Habs games?

26.) 21 Mar 2019 01:33:29
Yeah vlasic has played good the last 10 games or so but before that a lot of people were thinking he was in decline me being one of them. I still think it tbh. But if he continues to play like his old self like he has the last 10 games then you put vlasic on the team over Brodie cause what separates them is the fact vlasic has been there before.

27.) 21 Mar 2019 01:41:50
Someone needs to watch for more then a handful of games. If you did you would know vlasic was horrible the first half of the year and has only got better since they cut down his minutes.

28.) 21 Mar 2019 21:05:29
i'll be honest, i haven't watched a lot of sharks, but i do watch a lot of flames and brodie isn't what team canada would need, they don't need high scoring offense only dmen, they have the offence, they need proper defensemen who can shut down ahead of produce offense.

29.) 21 Mar 2019 23:38:05
He's solid defensively.

15 Mar 2019 01:43:37
I know this is a crazy far fetched idea but should the Jets consider parting ways with Laine? He is obviously very young at only 20 it's his 3rd year in the nhl and it's his worst by a good amount and Is probably going to get a 9-10 million dollar contract. I believe he should be putting up somewhere very close to Ovie judging by skill set but that's just not the case. With Laine persona I personally believe he should be on a team where he is THE go to guy. On the wing in Winnipeg he's shadowed by Wheeler. Would it be mutually beneficial to part ways? If someone offersheeted Winnipeg at 10millon ( gain 4 1st rd picks ) would you guys match?

1.) 15 Mar 2019 03:43:08
NOOOOOOOO.
Absolutely NOT!
Overshadowed by Wheeler?! Wheeler is a set-up man, if anything Wheeler is a compliment to Laine.
Sorry, dude, but this is “silly” and that’s putting it lightly.

2.) 15 Mar 2019 05:07:09
Parting ways with him when his value is at a low would be bad asset management.

They should try and take advantage of the down year and get him signed long-term on a team friendly deal.

3.) 15 Mar 2019 11:21:28
You really believe he’ll take a discount I believe he’ll ask for Mathews type money and some teams would pay it. If he signs long term my guess is 10 million+. And yes by overshadowed I mean he’s on the 2nd line only playing 15 min a night. He should be on a 1st line playing 20+ min.

4.) 15 Mar 2019 15:08:09
I agree with Unsportsmanlike, however, I bet Laine will want a Bridge deal. so after he gets his 50 goals, which he will ., he can cash in.

5.) 15 Mar 2019 18:37:57
I think of Laine signed an offer sheet where the Jets get 4 firsts, I think they might just let him go. That said, a bridge deal is the most likely outcome.

6.) 15 Mar 2019 19:20:05
Uh, I would agree that he is overshadowed by Wheeler. But getting rod of him now, with low value would not be a good decision. He can always bounce back.

7.) 15 Mar 2019 19:20:44
Let's not forget that up until recently, bridge deals were what all up and coming star players signed exiting their entry level deals. Could work out in the Jets favour if they can get him signed for a few years at a really good cap hit, and then sign him long term to really big bucks in a few years when they've had some other big contracts come off the books (Kulilkov for sure. maybe Buff? )

8.) 15 Mar 2019 20:13:32
The Jets will try to lock Laine up for 8 years but if they sign him to a 2 year bridge deal it gives the Jets time to see how much they want to budget for him in the future. They will match any offer sheet.

Miller would cost a 2nd round pick and no cap going to Tampa. Tampa will probably basically need to give Miller, Palat, Johnson, Callahan And Killhorn away to get Karlsson.
