Sujet: TDL If Weegar Signs Extension with Flames
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Yeah he was forced to play right side as a depth defenseman on other teams and he was relatively ineffective on those teams outside of hits. In Calgary he's played exclusively LD and have been quite effective there (though I think he learned and improved a lot under Sutter).

Calgary is very strong at Right handed Defense depth, but as stated before Weegar has played almost exclusively LD the last 3 years (except for when Ekblad was hurt). As a Canucks fan you should understand the pain of what it was like when Tanev got injured. Weegar at least provides support there and Kylington can always jump back in to a top 4 role.

As for Toronto they really arent as strong up front on the wing as you make them out to be and their d-core is very good too.

Overall this is just poor asset management by the Flames if they are trying to push for a cup, being one of the like 7-8playoff teams that can actually accrue a relevant amount of cap space this year for a big deadline add they are far better off trading futures for a big fish than a core player</div></div>

Point well made, you have officially won me over in your argument :)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Calgary isn't trading Tanev lol, Weegar has played LD for 3 seasons straight, he is more than confortable playing there. Not sure where you got the idea Zadorov was more comfortable on the right side when he doesnt play RD at all, or that he would ever be above Tanve - the best shutdown defenseman in the league - in the depths chart</div></div>

Zadorov has played over half his games throughout his career on the right side. And I agree Tanev is an amazing player (I am a canucks fan lol), I just thought it was a way for both Toronto and Calgary to improve a somewhat weaker area by dealing from a position of strength.

Calgary is very strong on RD, so they deal to improve in a somewhat weaker area, their top 9 wingers.

Toronto is very strong on top 9 wingers, so they deal to improve in a weaker area, their RD.

Sujet: Simple Patchwork for D Core
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GMBL</b></div><div>I thought I was going to see a Connor Murphy trade.

It's not worth it for Ottawa at this stage (since they don't know if they will even make it to the playoffs) to add assets to move Zaitsev's contract unless they are getting a player. I think that's why Dorion is trying to get Chychrun who's price is high and move Zaitsev in the same move. He's probably hoping to find a trade that would be the combination of a reasonable Chychrun ask + a reasonable Zaitsev dump.</div></div>

I get that completely. I was coming at this from the perspective they need to sell DeBrincat on the team so he will sign long term. The only way I feel they can do that is by having a steady enough d core to help them succeed. Even if they don't make the playoffs, this would allow the team to at least be in the fight for a spot, and will hopefully get DeBrincat to stay.

I feel any deal for Chychrun won't happen until the trade deadline, and by then it may be too late for the Sens.
