Lol. Getting guentzel doesn’t mean he has a pair, it means he has lost his marbles. Paying premium assets for a rental is dumb

Ew, if Drury's in the deal, knock the pick back a few rounds.

Caps accept

Why are you worried about his pair?

Fair value but WSH does not need another center prospect. Too many as it is.

Centers can always play wing. And it seems like Suzuki is a bit behind in his development, so he can take his time in Hershey and maybe carve out a role in the bottom 6 in the future. Or he becomes another trade chip.

I feel like ecupirate is an Eric Tulsky burner capfriendly account spreading propaganda to Hurricanes fans that buying at the deadline and using (nonguaranteed) assets for guys that increase cup chances is a horrible thing

JG doesn’t raise our cup chances but a couple of percentage points. That is if everything goes well

The way I see it:

Every single game in the ECF last year was decided by one goal. We scored just 7 goals in a 4 game series. If we were able to get those timely goals when we needed them, who knows where we could've ended up. What was our biggest need last year? Goal scoring. What's probably our biggest need thid year as well? Goal scoring. Its been the same **** every year at the deadline for the past couple years and we come up just short every year. Playoff teams in the east are only getting better. Why not go all in?

And the crazy thing is, with how deep this team is with players and prospects…making this trade isn’t going “all in” or “cup or bust”
