<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Okay. So maybe Montreal can use Perfetti, the Jets still don't need Guhle. Especially with a glaring hole on RHD. Would he be nice to have? Sure. But the Jets have Morrissey as the 1 LHD and Guhle isn't passing him and have been grooming Samberg for 2 LHD. Maybe if Guhle was exceptional defensively, you could make a case, but he's not. He's a poor man's version of Morrissey.

The Jets only have so many assets they can spend, so if they are spending a major asset, it needs to be to fill a hole at top 4 RHD or 2C, not just add a backup to a play behind our 1D.</div></div>

Guhle would play in the second pair, on either the left OR right side. If the Jets were a serious contender, Samberg would be left on the 3rd pair as that is all he can handle.

Sujet: Cap space
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I'll never understand the thought process (and I use that term charitably) that basically runs "DuBois is garbage, so we'll give the Kings garbage for him, so then we'll have garbage DuBois on <strong>our</strong> team, oh boy, oh boy."

I know that Vejmelka and pick 49 aren't exactly garbage, but DuBois had a better year than Barrett Hayton (pro-rated) or Ryan Johansen (with Colorado).</div></div>

Dubois might not be garbage but he is expensive....I would like to point out to everyone...this was a fun fantasy involving a team with cap space getting the top so-called "best team cancers" on one team and getting some futures to get them. Of course no team would trade for more than one of these vets..I would not take any of those guys at the price I proposed.

Sujet: Draft
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>Anderson vs. Laine isn't even the crux of the argument. Jiricek has 1st-pair potential, and is the only RD in the system like that. If that pick is 6OA, the only RD with similar potential in this draft (Levshunov) is already gone. Honestly I don't think Columbus could trade him for 6OA straight up.

So the rest is Barron and Harris to dump Anderson. Anderson isn't waiving his NTC to go back to Columbus, which given how he left, is definitely one of his 5-8 teams depending on when the trade is proposed. Barron and Harris isn't enough to dump him, they're redundant and not an improvement on the plethora of D we already have.

And then you want us to add Laine, who aside from this year where he was taken out by headhunting and a slewfoot, has been near ppg for Columbus and is a previous 40-goal scorer. On a team with no cap crunch, no desire to move him, and a severe lack of star players.

I want to give you the benefit of the doubt, but come on...this isn't it.</div></div>

I have heard this, hopefully Jiricek is worthy of the #6 pick...I wish him well and would take a chance even giving up a 5 or 6 pick a few years later to get him. Not that this question diminishes him, but if he shot left instead of right...what would you really think of his game?
