Sujet: Asking Price for Jack Eichel
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sagecoll</b></div><div>Right but that's not really how this goes...

-Eichel's only being traded if he demands a trade
-If he demands a trade, he's going to have 1-3 teams he specifically wants to be traded to
-At that point, Buffalo pretty much has no leverage. Whatever "asking" price there was you can chop off about 25-50%
-Sabres will probably trade him at that point because if you don't
a) Eichel will probably sit out (and it's not like he can't afford to)
b) Eichel will bad-mouth the Pegula's publicly to the point where they'll ship him out just so he can stop.
c) Other players are going to want to go to Buffalo less than they already do (which is pretty low)

It's going to make signing UFA's and signing NCAA players very hard in the future if you put up too much of a fight.

So if your ask is
1) Top Prospect
2) Top Pair/Top Line player
3) Top 15 Draft pick
4) 1st Rounder

What you could reasonably expect is
1) Top Prospect
2) Solid Young Top 6/Top 4 Player
3) A late 1st
4) Either another late 1st/early 2nd or a solid prospect or young player.

And that's basically what Gretzky got minus the cash.</div></div>

Very logical post. You’re the first person I’ve seen factor in the fact that him demanding a trade hurts his return. Well done.

Sujet: Habs Sign Hall and acquire Eichel
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>Most people on here don't want Drouin, Domi or Kotkaniemi, most think Drouin has no value, Domi is overrated and KK is still to big of a ? That is why I went Tatar and Danualt. I would have rather sent Domi + Drouin + the rest of the package.



If Sakic wants to win in the next 2 - 4 years Petry is a Huge upgrade on the right side and would be a great partner and mentor for Byram. Plus the deal had Petry signed at 6 mil for 4 years so essentially the Avs get 5 years worth of Petry on a good contract with no trade protection.



I felt like this was a very fair offer Ratcliffe is still a ? as he has not even played an NHL game at 21 and will start to lose value quickly if he cannot crack a roster soon, He would have a better chance at cracking the Habs then the Flyers IMO. Byron is really underrated he has speed, a great shot selection and is good defensively, he is a solid 3rd line winger however the habs already have a ton of 3rd line wingers and I had to make the cap space work. Maybe it would be better to send Mete + Byron + 2nd for Ghost + Ratcliffe</div></div>

Like I said....Ghost to Montreal can be done but we aren’t adding Ratcliffe and we are NOT taking Byron. Try again.

Sujet: Blockbuster makes leafs crazy good
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>swinny</b></div><div>I'll say it again. In the <strong>construct</strong> of that deal, yes he is. Otherwise it's Myers. That would be 100% the preference from a Leafs point of view. No need for a 33 year old defenseman. So short of the Flyers needing to move cap in the deal as presented, <strong>cap dump</strong>. What do you call the Niskanen for Gudas deal if your were Washington a couple years ago? An upgrade?

Not so clueless to know Sanhiem can play RD. That is a significant ommission on your part. May not be where you want him, but he plays it, and plays it exceedingly well. And that's not likely to change any time soon with Morin coming in the left side.

Not so clueless to say Couturier is a better centreman than Tavares either. Here's the difference: Tavares can carry his own line. He played with questionable wingers in Long Island and put up numbers. Those teams sucked. Couturier didn't put anything close to Taveres numbers up until he started playing with Giroux on a regular basis. Before that, he was a solid 2C.

But, hey.... what do I know?🤷‍♂️</div></div>

All you’ve done is proven you’re pretty clueless about teams other than the Leafs. ✌️

Sujet: Blockbuster makes leafs crazy good
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>swinny</b></div><div>Oh, your one of those people that like because someone is a left shot they can't play the right side.

Sanhiem.... who at this stage is more than capable.

Which means, Sanhiem, Braun and Myers. And for 21-22, I suspect Myers is ready for top 4.

In the deal as it was proposed, yes, Niskanen is a cap dump. Plain and simple. 21 million coming in, someone is going out.

I never said it was a good trade. I never said I wiuld move him. But I will say, again, in that deal, he is.</div></div>

Is this the point where you PRETEND to know more about the team than I do? Or does that come later?
You’ve already proven pretty clueless about our current defensive makeup. Niskanen a cap dump......ok sure.
