Sujet: Sabres

Yes, this assumes that we'd have a mutually acceptable deal in place for Reinhart before signing the papers, so I'd okay this for Los Angeles.

Sujet: Interesting Trade

I think that we could leave their first-rounder out of it and they'd still say No.

And that's even without the strategic consideration pointed out by <a href="/users/oilsince95" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@oilsince95</a>

Sujet: Adding Eichel Without Damaging The Future

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JokiStan</b></div><div>I don't think I'm being super unreasonable, I just feel Eichel's a damn good player and whoever trades for him will be real happy for sure and hope we get a reasonable return</div></div>

I don't think that you're being unreasonable at all, let alone "super." My primary objection to 95% of the trades for Eichel (at least those involving Anaheim) is that once the assets go the other way, who is he going to play with? Mitch Marner, William Nylander and John Tavares aren't enough to get Auston Matthews a playoff-round win, for goodness' sake. And we don't have anyone anywhere NEAR those guys.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Saskleaf</b></div><div>Oh, sure, but there's no guarantee any of Zegras, Drysdale or the 3rd overall pick will be as good as Eichel or even close to it.</div></div>

Absolutely true. But the assets we already have don't cost us anything, and if you think about it, the chance that Zegras, Drysdale or Guenther won't be as good as Eichel is only a little more likely than the chance that at least one of them <strong>will</strong> be as good as he is, eventually.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Canucks33</b></div><div>What happened to Steel? Has his value dropped since he entered the league? Could he make it as a 3C or is he a winger? What does he project as right now?</div></div>

For a guy who had 131 points in juniors in his draft year, his offensive development has been disappointing.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JokiStan</b></div><div>It's not about quantity here. It isn't a terrible package but it lack anything of great quality. What's the centerpiece here? The 1st? Hampus Lindholm? <strong>The package would be fine if it was the 2021 1st</strong> but it's quantity over quality which is exactly what the O Reilly deal was. You sure love replying to me lol</div></div>

Well, I enjoy the debate. I respect your opinion. And you know something? Your statement in this very comment has convinced me that you're right, and we'll probably have to give up the third overall selection in this draft if the rest of the package is good enough.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Saskleaf</b></div><div>Eichel doesn't go to Anaheim without one of Zegras, Drysdale, or the 3rd overall. Period. Buffalo would send him elsewhere.</div></div>

That's fine, and probably true because he'll probably get better offers from Minnesota and the Rangers and maybe even a desultory effort from the Kings. But rebuilding teams with no excess of talent in the prospect pool or surplus first-round picks can't afford to go overboard because one superstar isn't any guarantee of success -- just ask Edmonton, who have two, or Toronto, who have four.

Sujet: Adding Eichel Without Damaging The Future

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JokiStan</b></div><div>That's a really easy no from buffalo. A mid to later 1st, no A tier prospect, and an aging Defenseman? I don't see why buffalo would want to do this... You won't even include Comtois or 3rd overall lmao</div></div>

Brayden Tracey is rated a better prospect than anyone you have at LW, including John-Jason Peterka and Linus Weissbach.

Josh Mahura is rated a better prospect than anyone you have at LD, including Ryan Johnson, Jacob Bryson and Mattias Samuelsson.

That package is at least the equivalent of four first-round pick values.

Too realistic and level-headed. Wait'll you hear the screams from the Buffalo guys. Hope you're wearing your cup.

A legitimate offer for Reinhart. Nice thinking.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Dougie will 100% want max term so you're probably a year short of anything. I get the money being gigh part though but players care more about winning than an extra 1M</div></div>

I'd happily give him 7 years even if I knew in advance he couldn't skate the last one. Besides, Carolina hasn't won anything yet and I think we're building a winner here. Yeah, he'll probably stay, but given the offers I've seen so far, we would be negligent in not making the effort. I'm MUCH rather have him on board than sell the farm to bring Jack Eichel in.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>Heinen?</div></div>

I'm not sold on him. I left him off because his qualifying offer is so high I couldn't post a team with all of my favorite prospects on it because some nitwit would say "But you're over the cap."

Money talks. I'm a million up and a year or more longer than my competing offers.

The sun isn't over the yardarm yet here in SoCal and you think that Josh Manson gets us the tenth overall selection in this year's draft?

I want you to seriously reconsider trading seven or more years of Dylan Guenther for one year of Sam Reinhart. I don't care if Reinhart scores 82 points this season.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DucksFan55</b></div><div>I really don't want to give up Comtois. Love his style of play.

Well, I have a solution: Just Say No.

You have more than $9 million in cap space.

Neal's buyout is $1,916,667 for each of the next four years.

Wouldn't it be better to pay the fine and keep the first?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gmack95</b></div><div>Why wouldn't Riikola be available? Fourth pro season</div></div>

He's available (i.e., eligible to be selected); he just doesn't count as a qualifying defenseman to discharge that element of a team's expansion-draft obligations.

Sujet: Hmmm

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RowdyRoddy96</b></div><div>To get Morgan Rielly to replace Josh Manson who has been in rumour mills for being traded. Troy Terry was going to get traded as well so how is that a bad trade when <strong>Manson will fetch you the same return if you shipped him off to Detroit you could get their 6th overall pick</strong> draft that really good Swede goalie and have a backup plan for when Gibson decides he wants out. Arizona would get a 1st and 2nd and a mid-six and cap space for a Kessel buyout for a Gritty young fourth-liner and a top 6 fwd they'd do that deal and by trading Mikhayev the Leafs would then open a roster spot for Robertson?</div></div>
You better hope no Detroit guys see this.

And if one of my esteemed Anaheim colleagues suggested that Rickard Rakell and Josh Manson together would get us Detroit's sixth overall pick in this year's draft, I would scold him severely.

Forum: Armchair-GMil y a 7 heures

Sujet: Hmmm

Rebuilding teams that are more than one season away from contending seriously for at least one playoff round win don't need an expensive one-year rental. We might trade you Sam Steel to replace Alex Kerfoot at #3C and maybe a quality LD defense prospect (because they're cheap, which is a major concern for the cap-strapped Leafs) and maybe our 2021 third (the 65th overall selection in this year's draft), but that's about the limit of interest I see us having in Rielly. For this season we have Cam Fowler and Hampus Lindholm on that side, plus Haydn Fleury whom I'm sure management want to give a very long look, so Rielly is duplicative as well as expensive.

Forum: Armchair-GMil y a 7 heures

Sujet: Sergachev and Gourde

Lyubushkin is Arizona's qualifying defenseman for the expansion draft and Riikola doesn't count as one.

Forum: Armchair-GMil y a 7 heures

Sujet: Hmmm

I think you've seriously overestimated Morgan Rielly's value in general and seriously underestimated the importance of the 33rd overall selection in this year's draft, next year's first and Troy Terry to us specifically. We might trade you some roster players so that you could put Rielly's cap hit to better use, but I doubt that you would get any one of those three elements in a package in an exchange for an expensive one-year rental. That's the price we would pay for William Nylander, maybe.

Mikko Koskinen isn't on our wish list. But we'd be interested in Ethan Bear or Raphael Lavoie.
