Sujet: Team Canada but im not Canadian
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MelonVK</b></div><div>I don't mind Weber, like he's fine, but to me it's as annoying as anything when great offensive d-men like Karlsson and Subban get called out for not playing defense. So what does both do? Go and become really good on defense. Now they're getting **** for not having the same point production they had a few years back, but at the same time Brent Burns is as beloved as ever, being much worse defensively than either of the previous mentions ever were. This stuff makes no sense to me. Subban is great. He played a shutdown role the entire season, but is so useful because he can still handle the puck.

There's at least one or two guys I'd chose over Weber, Ellis being one, probably Shea Theodore, and I'd lean Parayko, but probably not Pietrangelo tbh.



Do French Canadians count?</div></div>

Lol beware of the **** you can brew with this question, also yes they have too many good players for us to ignore them

Sujet: trading for EDM first and dumping cap space
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gretzkyghosts</b></div><div>Would any one care to guess how many 7th or 8th OA picks produced 40 or more pts in the NHL the year after they were drafted in the past 10 years? ONE, Jeff Skinner. But there have also been total busts from those two picks Glennie, Burmistrov, Pouliot, Fleury, Nylander, I stopped at 2016 it is too early to determine their performance. So from 2009 to 2016 18 players picked 5 were busts 28%, I guess, let's make the run at it now adding 3 top 6 wingers.
BTW the 2011 draft was pretty awesome.


Opps, you are correct. The 8th OA nearly always steps right into the NHL and starts producing 50 to 60 pts per year (Miller 47, 58, 56 pts his last 3 years, Gourde 48, 64 in his only NHL years, Palat 34, 45, 52 his last 3 years) and a late first coming back. Now why would Edmonton which needs wingers ever dream of getting 3 of them for only giving up the 8th OA?

That can be handled in many fashions. Retain some of Sekera, trade Gagner, add a pick to move Russel, OMW that is $9,000,000 space that just opened up.

So $90,000,000 move out the 3 players I just mentioned, and poof, they are under the cap and have the wingers to add secondary scoring.

You may be correct that the Sabres would not do this, but check out the Sabres with those 3 forwards on their team right now. In a sense they are in a win now mode with Reinhart on a low contract and Dahlin on an ELC. Gourde, Miller and Palat as the second line. Sheary, Mittelstadt and Rodrigues on the third, Girgensons, Larsson and Okposo on the fourth. I am not sure if the Sabres could make space as easily as the Oilers could.</div></div>

I just wanted to quote this long ass quote
