Sujet: Dumba Trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bdb</b></div><div>I would be very surprised to see Dumba get lost via the draft, while some of the shine has come off him, I think he's still a very good dman. I could see the rumours of Suter waiving to protect him or a trade for a different asset before this.</div></div>

If I’m Billy G, I’m trading him. He’s 26 in the middle of his best years and we have his replacement ready to go for next year. We might as well trade him and get a young prospect and a pick out of it now instead of getting little to nothing later in his career. I had some other proposals sending Dumba to the Devils for Jesper Boqvist + 28th overall pick this year or send Dumba to Philly for Morgan Frost + Phillys 2nd round pick this year or their 1st next year.

Sujet: Cost to Compete
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bdb</b></div><div>Thanks for the response, I had forgotten that Baertschi was only 1 more year so you are right it would be unnecessary. My thinking on Jensen was that he is a poor man's Tanev and that we would save some cap.

I think Toffoli is much more valuable to the team than Virtanen especially in the short term.</div></div>

Jensen is definitely a good player to have, but I don't think he's a luxury we can afford until after Pettersson and Hughes' new contracts kick in. Regardless of how good he is, I don't want to be stuck paying 2.5M for a bottom pairing defenseman when we need as much cap space as possible.

Toffoli has been really valuable, for 10 games. Last season he put up the lowest point total over a full season since his first year. He's never broken 60 points and only broken 50 points one time. Boeser has scored at a higher rate in each of his first three seasons than Toffoli has in his best season. He's having a good year in a contract year; how often do you see that happen, where a player has a good year and a team signs him in FA. Usually ends up looking pretty bad for the team. We have options who can replace him down the line and we don't desperately need him like we do a defenseman. Podkolzin can replace him in one year on an ELC and Hoglander could eventually get to that level as well.
