<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingofRnR</b></div><div>Age and Contract Status (especially their Cap Hit, Terms and whether they are under Team Control) definitely affect a Player’s Value

That’s like saying Crosby has more value than Bedard, because nothing else matters, whereas Bedard is obviously more valuable, since Crosby is at the tail end of his career, whereas Bedard is just starting his and will be great ‘&amp; valuable for years to come</div></div>

I was specifically relating to these two players not an absurd completely unrelated example you tried to make. I’m not even going to explain to you how unrealistic and ridiculous that rebuttal was. Either way, Ruzika does not provide the same level of talent Duclair currently does. And there are more teams willing to pay more for what Duclair has to offer right now then what Ruzika might have to offer IF he develops into the NHL player you suggest he will become.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingofRnR</b></div><div>Duclair is the Better Player, but he’s also a Pending Free Agent, whereas Ruzicka’s Younger and an RFA, so his value should be considered higher

Put Ruzicka in the same situations/opportunities as Duclair gets and he’ll put up decent numbers and eclipse him within a season or two

Duclair definitely has more experience, emotion and energy, but he also has an injury history and will be 28 soon, so doesn’t have near the amount of peak years ahead of him that Ruzicka does</div></div>

Their contracts don’t change their value. At the trade deadline duclair will get more than Ruzika at any time of the year. Ruzika hasn’t proven he can produce at Duclairs level. I’m not saying it will never happen I’m just saying currently, no, Duclair has more value.

Sujet: If Matthews tells Management he has no interest re-signing LA Side
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SupremeBone</b></div><div>Gonna have to disagree. The point is that the Oilers literally can't afford to incur further cap costs as they already likely have to move on from two of Yamo, Foegele, Ceci, and Kulak. Adding Arvidsson would mean worsening the cap crunch and having to get rid of three of those players. For a guy that's likely only a bit of a step up at a position they shouldn't really be focused on upgrading (plenty of W prospects on the way up), that's not even remotely worth it.

As for Turcotte, nothing about his numbers suggest he's a 'top prospect' anymore given they've been largely stagnant for 3 years in the AHL.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Wait - Turcotte is a "very good prospect"? Is this 2019?

A 1st for an Arvidsson rental is pretty steep, especially considering Edmonton would have to move out significant players to accommodate. IF they trade Yamamoto this summer it would be strictly to clear cap to sign Bouchard - no way can they replace Yamamoto with a more expensive player. If LA was to retain 50% on Arvidsson there's a conversation to be had, but surely LA could do better elsewhere.</div></div>

I disagree, Turcotte is only 22 and hasn’t been given much of an opportunity in the NHL yet to say otherwise.

Arvidsson is a considerable upgrade on Yamo for only 1.125 mil more. I understand the cap crunch is an issue but not Holland has done more with less. If this deal is offered Holland takes it without hesitation and does what he has to do to make it work. EDM makes out like bandits here.
