Sujet: Jets find a Centre .... (comment on trades)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>johnnyu22</b></div><div>Ya, I think he could get up to about $7 million, I'm just hoping arbitration is able to drive the price down a bit and suggest that he only has one Vezina-calibre season under his belt, so it may be risky to pay him what he may or may not be worth. And I'm not so sure. I think any team in the league looks for an opportunity to bolster their backend. I think if Winnipeg held on to half of Myers contract, the deal would look even better as well. Its a trade that could happen, and if not, the Jets would show interest in Kase as well for a winger position on the jets 3rd.</div></div>

That's fair, arbitration could drive it down a bit, but I dont think Winnipeg lets it get that far. Most players are signed before they have to have a third party negotiator, and Chevy will probably be anxious to get his number 1 netminder locked up ASAP.

As for the trade, holding back some of Myers' salary would help, but I still think they hold on to Rakell. With Getzlaf and Perry on the decline, Anaheim lacks the offensive firepower they once had. Rakell is a perennial 30 goal threat, and only 25. They'll wanna keep him for the future.

Sujet: Halak signing is great and..
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ON3M4N</b></div><div>Yes, its called Bruins fans.

See Boston always needs something to complain about, something always to poke at and say it could be better.

For years we begged, pleaded and prayed to the hockey gods for a PMD that could put up points from the back end. We we're finally granted our wish with Krug, but now those same fans say we need a more reliable defender that isn't on the ice for as many goals. Its kind of like when our fans complain that we don't give young guys a chance and then those same fans turn around and say we need to trade kids for more proven talent.

Truth is Krug has value around the NHL. 50+ point d-men don't grow on trees and if you look at this years draft you can see a lot of teams went with OFD (some even undersized) in the first few rounds. If Krug was 6'2/6'3 then B's fans would have a statue of him made already. Since he's 5'9 he's expendable because he'll never be anything more than a PP Specialist (according to the pink hat army). It'll take a serious package for Boston to trade Krug</div></div>

I've never read anything more accurate than this. It drives me nuts that Bruins fans want him gone, makes no sense to me

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BruinsFan13</b></div><div>1. The Krug trade for is bound to happen if not for Wilson then for someone like him I'm sure. I mean yeah we could probably get more for Krug but a Wilson type player would benefit the team in more ways then one.

2. The Simmonds trade works for both sides as Philly gets to bolster their D and we get a mainly constant, except for last year, 50+ points guy that has grit.

Instead of Wilson who would you trade Krug for?</div></div>

personally, if we had to move Krug then i would include him in a package deal for Panarin. i understand CBJ might not need defense, but i think that would be the best scenario for a Krug trade, as we get a very good second line winger out of him. if not Panarin, then possibly Simmonds, or someone of his caliber

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Canucks1</b></div><div>I don’t know where to start at how awful this post is.

1) The fact that you use plus minus to devalue a player is beyond laughable. Plus minus is a useless stat. Especially on a basement rebuilding team.

2) If you think Heinen has more value than Horvat because of corsi and points without looking at offensive zone time, line mates etc. Then you’re clueless. I’ll bet you anything Studnicka won’t even make the NHL and Lauzon is nothing more than a bottom pairing dman. Juolevi has draft pedigree and is tracking to be a top 4 dman.

Oh trust me I research and watch many games of prospects on every team. How about watching a Canucks game once in a while?</div></div>

alright listen. Horvat is better than Heinen, not denying that. Lauzon has got potential, maybe not top 4 potential but he could be a solid top 6 guy down the line. saying Studnicka wont even make the NHL though? thats just stupid. the kid has serious potential and is only 19, theres already been talk of him maybe making the team out of camp this year, and even if he doesnt i think theres a very good chance he could be in the league later in the season. saying he wont make the NHL is laughable, clearly you were just looking to insult a fan and picked the first name that you saw.

as for Juolevi, it still remains to be seen whether or not he can be effective at a high level. sure he went 4th overall, but he has struggled a bit in junior and so far has not lived up to the hype. not saying he is a flop, im just saying its a bit too early to tell just how good he will be (ie. will he be a top 4 guy or a top 6 guy). dont count your chickens before they hatch dude. draft pedigree doesnt mean jack **** until you can prove yourself. try not to "overvaluate your prospects"
