<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CN10</b></div><div>I believe "looking outside the organization" meant a UFA signing for 1 year &lt; $1M, not sending out two assets for a guy (Daley) worse than the internal option they already have (<a href="https://public.tableau.com/shared/DGHKHP2RS?:display_count=yes&amp;:origin=viz_share_link" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Daley v. Kylington 2019</a>). The depth chart at LHD looks fine to me even if they don't get anyone right now and only make the move for a Daley or equivalent in the event of an injury.
Gio - Brodie
Hanifin - Hamonic
Kylington - Andersson
Davidson - Yelesin

Agree it’s unlikely but veteran depth would be nice for playoffs. Would love to see them past the first round. But a good option to wait until trade deadline.

I see where you are going here and agree its probably what will happen. Personally, I would rather see us move Brodie and keep Stone as he is much harder to play against (when healthy).

The big mistake I see and have been saying for a while is keeping the 3 m line together...

- Tkachuk is 100% a top 6 player (wouldn't mind seeing him on the top line while johnny gets sheltered on the 2nd).

- BUT when Backs is on the 2nd with PP time his numbers drop significantly! He is probably one of the leagues best 2-way 3rd line centres and an incredibly effective PK specialist but when moved up he loses a step and ends up as a mediocre 2nd line centre.

- Then Frolik... When paired with Backs on the 3rd line and given PK time he excels! But on the 2nd line, he becomes a below-average winger...

Move Backs and Frolik back where they belong and build a real second line starting with Tkachuk or maybe even Johnny!

The key here is to be playoff-ready! To get into the second round and beyond! We will not make it with the 3 m line as our 2nd line...

Sujet: Whats Puljujarvis value
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CN10</b></div><div>I disagree. He just played a prominent role on the Calder cup winning team. </div></div>

Sure he did. But IMO all 3 of the Oilers AHL LD are better and/or have a higher ceiling, I wouldn't take away their playing time for Fleury. Just going off boxcars:

Caleb Jones, AHL: 50, 6-23-29 +16
Lagesson, AHL: 67, 8-19-27 +25
Samorukov, OHL: 59, 10-35-45 +36 and beastmode in the playoffs: 24, 10-18-28 +18

Fleury, AHL: 28, 2-8-10 +0 and in the playoffs: 11, 2-4-6 +7

Fleury is a 2014 draft pick same as Lagesson, yet putting up worse numbers in the AHL. Jones is a year younger (2015) while Samorukov is 3 years younger (2017). I find it doubtful that Fleury takes ice-time away from any of these guys. Unless one of them gets called up to the NHL or traded, there's no room in the Oilers AHL organization for Haydn Fleury.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CN10</b></div><div>So Murray won't be a fit with Weber on the top pair? I see Montreal moving a top 6 forward who the organization was unhappy with to end the year and which will soon be replaceable by the forward prospects coming up for a #2/3D and a young backup goalie. Columbus may need to sweeten the deal with a 2020/2021 mid round pick but I think it seems fair and addresses both team needs.</div></div>

In terms of value Murray for Drouin is not a bad starting point for a trade. Habs would likely be a better team overall if Murray was reasonably healthy for a few years.

The problem is that Drouin acquisition from Tampa was so high profile for Marc Bergevin, that he'd have to be perceived to hit a home run in a Drouin trade at this point (someone like Ghost from the Flyers). Getting Murray would look more like a solid double, not the home run.

For better or worse, Drouin likely gets a longer leash in Montreal, and in a couple of years is finally let go at lower trade value.
