<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Billy316</b></div><div>Thats like saying Jerry Seinfeld is a less talent Larry David
i can see how one would argue it , doesnt make it true
MSL our Coach is living proof that being small doesnt mean being less than
It simply means they're smaller</div></div>

When ppl say Caufield is small and that is somehow...this huge disadvantage?... it lets me know they dont understand how physics or the game is played.

Caufield's center of gravity is so low and he's so strong on his skates that he's almost impossible to check in transition and just squirts by you with guys swinging their arms at him then missing continually instead of using a shoulder or hip.
The problem with his size is that he needs someone like a Skafkovsky to fish out pucks.
Caufield as I said is a great piece in the puzzle to complement guys but I wouldn't necessarily start a franchise with him because you need those hard to find pieces like Slafkovsky to complement him. This is team building after all I thought on this site.
Caufield's all time low shooting percentage and league low shooting % among shooters over 200 SOG will correct itself and Cole will be a 40 goal scorer for a decade playing with Nick and Slaf. Hes top10 in shots this year and ill go over 300SOG with the shoulder injury that has clearly effected him. We've seen this before with players like Tarasenko coming off an injury before a bounce back from a shoulder surgery.

Sujet: Sid does not understand direction of Dubas
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wreckless</b></div><div>I dunno about Colorado. I mean, better team, sure. But if he wins there, vs. if brings cup number 25 to Montreal?

Number 87 in the rafters? Oh my god…

He definitely has had this cross his mind.

And I fully agree. That move would instantly make Geoff Molson millions upon millions of dollars in extra ticket revenue, ad revenue, beer revenue…</div></div>

You're right. Crosby isn't Lebron he wouldn't just choose the best team. If colorado just because his best buddy Mackinnon is there lol he's very competitive of course playing playoff hockey is important to him but he wouldn't just solely be swayed by going on the best team. Continuing to speak hypothetically bc i don't think he's going anywhere but yes Montreal would be top of the list and if he brings a cup there hed be even more immortal, itd be something to see for sure...

Sujet: Sid does not understand direction of Dubas
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wreckless</b></div><div>Yep, nothing’s changed about what he’s decided to say publicly.
And his desire to do this, is in direct conflict with his desire to have meaningful seasons at the end of his career.
My guess is the latter wins out.
I can’t possibly state enough what the experience would be like for him if he came here.
He would literally transform the entire culture of our province.
We have the young core in place to support him.
It’s his childhood team.
It’s the perfect fit.</div></div>

Colorado would be before MTL. Sid has earned whatever he wants. Obviously if we were rebuilding it'd be more beneficial to the rebuild to get the absolute haul and the draft picks that Sid would bring (and for the receiving team youre selling out every single game at a 50% price increase) and if Sid wants to go then I know for a fact we would honor that. He's earned his say. If he wants to stay, stay. However, Sid has always said that it's important to him to only wear one jersey for his whole career. So idk. Outside of punditry and speculation I've never seen Sid say anything other than it's still important to him to retire a Penguin.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ricochetii</b></div><div>Winnipeg 1st + Ylonen
Replaces Kakko in the bottom 6 and can use the 1st to pick up a top 6 RW.
(Not that I'd necessarily do it, but I think it makes sense.)</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wreckless</b></div><div>We’re not looking to move Slaf. What’s the asking price on Kakko?</div></div>

NYR aren't going to move Kakko unless the move helps them NOW. MTL doesn't have (or I should really say won't want to) give up the assets NYR would want to get him. Draft picks really don't do much as the player won't be able to help NYR for a few years. Most likely it would have the be a 3 way trade where MTL gives up assets to a team that has what NYR wants and gets Kakko in return, so unlikely.

For an in season trade, it would have to be one of Newhook, Slaf, Dach, Caufield, Suzuki coming back (which MTL obviously declines). For an offseason trade, Beck+mid pick could be a possibility depending on the health of Chytil.
