Reaching on the rebuild

I’d like a small add to the Hertl deal but it’s fair obvi

Meier deal I don’t love but it’s not bad - I just rather a different set of prospect/ deal

But that Philly one ain’t happening York is gonna be real damn good - nothing we can do to acquire him unless you do: Meier for York and a first/ pick

really conflicted on the Philly idea, because I think there is a good chance a team will try and pickup Burns 50% retained at the deadline, and Philadelphia just seems like the obvious destination (where Burns will accept a trade to).

Looking around, York is ranked almost equally to Merkley in most publications, so I figured it was around good value, obviously not sure if PHI would be willing to depart from him, but SJ needs more LD prospects, and York is a perfect fit.

I’d love to see York over in teal but Burns’ age/ contract length negate a real chunk of value. If he is moved whether Seattle or wherever I think that trade is to unpredictable as not many teams will inquire on him and personally I don’t see an elite level prospect being moved is all. That’s just me but as I said I think it’s too unpredictable so I could be right or wrong.

I think Philly just has to many money worries of their own to take on burns. But hey if they did offer burns 50% for York I think I’d take them up on it haha.

Hertl only having 1 year left on his deal before UFA is tough to move Newhook for. You really are only getting him for the rest of his contract bc no way they can afford to keep him.
IMO newhook is only moved in a long term piece trade. Value is probably close but the logic behind the trade I just dont fully see it for the avs as Newhook is the only realistic long term 2C option Avs have once kadris contract is done. If you arent getting a replacement to fill hat void then its going to make a very big hole in the roster

Well it’s for this playoffs and next, and the team has many other prospects so I don’t see a hole created. I don’t see how it’s not fair because timmins + others aren’t worth it for the sharks. I think logic is there as Hertl comes at just above a 2m aav and and allows for plenty of cap flexibility for cup contender who’s adding a top 6 player; which is a very rare chance to get. Hertl also could extended but even then you’ve still got nearly 2 years to figure that out/ 1.5 y; if not win 1-2 cups while still being able to make other moves during since Hertl once again only costs 2m.
