I'm a little weird, just like everyone else.

Sujet: Could Toronto Target A Cheap RHD
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>keep_ups12</b></div><div>Peeke for sure. He was great for Columbus when they have a boat load of injuries. Whitecloud is good but most likely not otb.
Roy is probably not otb either. Peeke would be great though</div></div>
This is exactly why we have zero interest in trading him for so low. He's going to be needed if/when Savard moves on.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>keep_ups12</b></div><div>So why the hell do you guys want to keep Savard so badly? And yes he is suppose to be the replacement. Oh and i didn't forget Jones is a top 10 d man right?</div></div>
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>keep_ups12</b></div><div>I brought up Jones because "he is a top 10 d man" who can carry the right side. Since he is that good you don't need Savard. You also have Nut (Who i don't if he could play on the right side). And no that is not trolling. And I was asking again "why do you sell so high on Savard". He isn't worth a 2c, which is a pretty high ask. And I was thinking since you have so many defense man you don't need Peeke but I guess not</div></div>
The "many defensemen" we have are mostly LHDs. Jones/Savard/Peeke are the only three NHL-quality RHDs we have - Nutivaara and Kukan can both play RD, but they're both lefties. Also, there's something to the idea of having quality on every pairing.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ajp_18</b></div><div>Dude... if you read a later comment I agreed and also said Jones wasn’t a top 10 RHD in the NHL.... I was more asking why he brought Jones up in that comment because I never said anything about him. Read dude.</div></div>
FYI, that's the guy who thinks Jones doesn't even qualify as top-4. Not "top-4 in the NHL", "top-4" as in "<a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/forums/thread/336365?post_id=1502539">not good enough for the second pairing</a>".

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BurnEmUp</b></div><div>Nah, the value is fine.

Bennett is a bust in that he isn't what he was supposed to be, a top line NHL star.

He's still a gritty hard working bottom six winger who can provide toughness and depth scoring. There is also a chance that in a new environment he finds some more offense due to a myriad of reasons. He wouldn't be the first guy to do that, it happens all the time. He is easily worth a 2nd round pick value wise, so if you add the other 2nd round pick that's roughly two 2nds for a guy who is coming off a tough year, but has potential to bounce back to his 20+ goal form.

Nobody really cares if Viqsi wants Bennett or not, we've heard it many times now. Bottom line is the value is fine in this trade proposal.</div></div>
We don't need bottom-6 players, and that's all Bennett has ever been and is all he's likely to ever be. For G-d's sake, we just dumped a guy who was more productive than him (and also drafted in the same round of that same draft) for a throwaway rental center at the deadline because we were done with playing the reclamation project game. We're not taking on another with an even bigger cap hit just because BurnEmUp wants to insist it's "fair". If he's so valuable and likely to bounce back, you can keep him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BurnEmUp</b></div><div>How do you know what Jarmo wants?

Answer, you don't.

Value in that deal is just fine.</div></div>
It's crap. It's always been crap. You know it's crap. I know it's crap. Everyone else here knows it's crap. Bennett does nothing for this team except take up cap space. He is not a desirable asset. He is a bust, and when you're trading busts that take up cap space, <strong>you</strong> pay <strong>us</strong>, not the other way around.

If Andy-for-a-2nd is desirable, try extending him an offer sheet and see if he signs, 'cause we're better off keeping him and trying for a bounceback to his prior NHL productivity than doing that trade and hoping that someone who has never produced at the NHL level somehow inexplicably learns how.
