GDT 2021-22 NHL Trade Deadline: All in, Bay Bay!

so that surprise swing...

 

what if it's Pettersson, instead? Vancouver will be moving guys, due to salary issues. He's been bad, and disgruntled. Even mentioned wanting to play for a winner.

 

I mean, we know how they always wanted Elias, whether it was that Devil or Pettersson at the draft.

Pettersson would be great but i doubt Vancouver moves him.  He's way too young and a pretty much unlimited potential.

Laf in a package to Van for Miller, Halak, Podkolzin confirmed.

only our prospects suck.  Everyone else's seem to be doing great. 

 

Igor is a Vezina favorite and Fox won the Norris... Ours are doing better than most.

[Albatrosss]

i dont think they're prospects anymore, no?

Seems highly unlikely given the Zibanejad extension. It would not only damn Strome, but EP will cost much more than both long-term.

Petterson with Panarin is.......sexy

(playing around)

I quickly went through to see. Kakko, Schneider, 1st... maybe another pick

 

Kreider - Zibanejad - Laf (3.5)

Panarin - Pettersson - Kravtsov (1.5)

Cuylle - Goodrow - Othmann

800k - 870k - Blais (1.8)

 

Lindgren - Fox

Jones (2) - Trouba

Miller (3) - Lundkvist (ELC)

Robertson

 

Shesty

Garand

 

82,970,357/83.5

 

And I think I'm generous with some of those contracts, based on play.

Can switch Kakko/Laf or Schneider with someone else if they prefer.

[Phil]

Kravtsov is more likely to be included in the deal — for obvious reasons, and probably to play with Podkolzin — than back on the roster, let alone on the second line. LOL.

 

Othmann is probably a top-six player on that roster, and that's asking a LOT considering you're going to be carrying like four? rookies.

well, if they dont have any rookies play next season.

 

Just doing the math. You can change the name to McKegg and Rooney if it makes you feel better.

I guess, but I'm having a hard time not seeing the New York Maple Leafs.

 

That top-six is talented as fuck, but also softer than Twinkie filling.

And much like Twinkie filling, with time and exposure, it too will harden

Cuylle, Othmann, Berard (hes my 800k LW),

 

And there should be more money, as I dont anticipate Laf/Miller/Jones at those salaries, barring huge seasons.

 

I dont think it cramps the cap as much as I thought.

 

Sorry, was getting yelled at and didnt finish....

 

Combined with Goodrow, Kreider, Laf/Kakko - they should be OK. I dont think there is much difference between that and the current top 6.

How do they trade him after that? The fan base in Seattle would revolt!

So they'd have a legit reason to destroy their city this time.

Who are you talking about then? Othmann? Cuylle? Again, our prospects are doing better than most.

Alright, so I, just trying to get some ideas on Zillow of houses to recommend to .Gourde so we can get him here. School districts are fire so that’s good. Any ideas?

Just start sending him info on Larchmont and Scarsdale and I'm sure he'll come around.

While I like the idea of Pettersson, there's this worrying theory in my head of late that Turk might not be the coach for younger upcoming players. I didn't watch him enough in Vegas and Florida to know if there's such a trend and so this theory might be completely out to lunch. But this year it seems while the veterans on the team are flourishing, far too many of the younger players have seemingly regressed (and Kravtsov wasn't even given the chance he was hoping for). Now some of that is bound to be on the players themselves.

 

But for all the fanfare Gallant has been receiving (and don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of what the guy's come in and done so far), part of me is left wondering that he might not be the right coach for young developing players, and one that prefers to run more with the established vets.

He's near a PPG player thorughout his NHL career, so I'm not sure how much focus needs to be on him developing. But, he also puts up a lot of PP points.

How can an agent also work for steam as an assistant general manager?
