<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>I would do that too, although I think a 1 for 1 is a very fair and smart trade for the teams to make. Minnesota very much needs a right handed scorer up front and the Leafs could use a bigger power forward like player. Greenway looks like he has a pretty high ceiling but I think there is a very good chance that he ends up being a 40 point guy at best in Minnesota. I don't see him having the tools to be elite on his own, he strikes me as more of a high value support guy. Much like Kapanen, although Kap's speed does create chances for himself as well.</div></div>

Agreed. I think it would be a good trade and I would pull the trigger. Although it probably wont happen (GMs don't want to give up on these young players) It seems like the fit is there for both Min and Tor on this deal. Thanks!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>I'd prefer Greenway in a one for one or TO adds another asset like a 3rd.</div></div>

I don't think that Fenton would do it, but if you made the 3rd a 2nd, I would do it. Greenway for Kapanen and 2019 2nd?

Thanks for the comment. Isn't it obvious, Aberg.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>Much like when Kessel was traded when an offersheet was a threat, the team holding the players rights will trade him for a fair return before it gets to an offer sheet. So if you want Kapanen, trade for him and make it a fair trade, otherwise its highly unlikely.</div></div>

Agreed. What do you think a fair deal would be for Kap? I do not mean to offend, but How about this Pateryn, a 2nd round pick and a B prospect in our system?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>I think the question becomes:
Why would you want to overpay Kapanen? He is at best a 2-3 RW right now (basically a solid middle 6 guy). If you were going to pay him that much, give him the Dvorak deal, it'll look way better for way longer.</div></div>

Thanks for the comment. Again, I agree that an offer sheet is not the best solution. It does seem that 3.5 mil- 5 mil seems to be the going rate for 2nd line players these days. A lot of the better teams in the League have their 2nd line guys making 4+ mil (Tor, TB, Was, Pit, WPG, VGK, etc). So it may be a little over payment for Kap? Yes, but I think it is close to the 2nd line price point.

Not to mention we still have V. Rask who is making 4mil a year as our 13th forward.

Easy Pass from Min. They are not giving up Fiala, Brodin and their 2nd for two aging players. They are trying to get younger and this is the complete opposite of what they are trying to accomplish. Plus they just traded for Fiala, they wont give up on him after 2 months.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MNBassman</b></div><div>The Perry idea would only work if he waived his NMC so he could be exposed for the expansion draft.</div></div>

True, but he would be 10 days away from being an UFA and maybe would retire before the Draft? That would have to be addressed for sure.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MNBassman</b></div><div>I see Zucker and Pulock as more of a 1:1 trade but if the isles threw in ho sang, I’d be willing to gamble on him. However, I would target Dobson or Wilde instead of Pulock...even though I do like Pulock.</div></div>

Thanks, I think a 1:1 would make sense for both teams. If Pulock wasnt available, I would target Wilde also, has good size and both Offensive and Defensive upside. I do not know much about Dobson, but will look him up. Thanks again

You are right, NYI probably wouldn't trade Pulock. But if they didn't retain any UFA's (which is unlikely), I think this might be a decent hockey trade. Zucker would be a potential 25-30 goal addition and would be a good fit for the speed of the Eastern Conference. Thanks for the comment

Thanks for the comment. I think that would be a great shutdown line. I just didn't want C.Perry on the bench right away (hard to have an 8.6 mil player scratched). Thanks again

Thanks for the comment! I do agree with you that Donato and Fiala should get some Top 6 minutes next year! I do think that they (especially Fiala) needs to show more to earn those top 6 minutes. I think Brock Nelson would be a nice 1C addition, my only issue is he is LHS and all my centers are LHS.

I agree with you that Brett Connolly is normally a middle 6 guy, but I watched him a bit throughout the year and I think he could benefit from a more elevated role.

I disagree a little on Spurgeon. I also think that he is a great hockey player and total see where your thought process is coming from, but he could potential get less due to his age and current contract situation. It might be more beneficial to keep him around. Depending on the right trade partner you might get more for a Brodin package (younger, longer contract, reasonable cap).

Thanks again

Thanks for the comment. I would be willing to pay him a little more. Seems like he has a few good years in DC and might want more minutes..? Seems like a good fit for for MIN (top 6 RHS winger)

Forum: Armchair-GM8 avr. 2019 à 10 h 30

Thanks for the comments. What if I added Greenway to the trade? Would that make Domi available?
