Sujet: Need that secondary Scoring
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Newgod77</b></div><div>Ducks just signed Henrique so doubt they trade him. Ty Anderson might not be the source either. A lot of click bait stuff.
Silfverberg would be a good pick up for a prospect and pick though.</div></div>

I saw him post an article, so that might have just been his take on all the speculation that was brought to him, but that article was the first I'd seen of the thought.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mattyb929</b></div><div>I question your evaluation of Cehlarik. If he is NHL ready then why is he behind several players who have yet to make any NHL impact.</div></div>

There are much smarter people than me making the decision whether he plays or not, but from the limited sample size he fit our scheme well and has a decent scoring touch. I've seen and heard a few writers say that Cehlarik should probably be given a look. I think he carries value either way and would be a useful trade chip.

Sujet: Rolling Into Next Year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BreKel</b></div><div>That Bailey contract gives me chest pain. He's not going to be worth close to 6M, never-mind 6.75. The guy hasn't done anything close to what he's doing this season. Even normal production from Bailey isn't worth that contract. Someone is going to overpay and I don't think it's Boston. I'm not a fan of moving Spooner in a deal to get Beleskey's contract out of here.

I offered a similar OEL deal, but I've soured on him as an acquisition. I'd much prefer McDonagh or someone different.

I don't mind your re-signings.</div></div>

I'll be 100% honest. I took a quick look at his stats, saw close to 60 points last year, and an increase this year and jumped on a top-6 contract for him. Now that I see his stats going back a few years, I mightily overpaid.

Sujet: Turn it upside Down
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BreKel</b></div><div>Anders Bjork hasn't been the same since that injury and after he returns from IR, he would benefit from going back to the AHL and playing down there. Jack Johnson is not an upgrade over Krug, and I wouldn't even consider him an upgrade on Grzelcyk at this point. Meanwhile, Spooner is having himself a solid year and I'd rather hold onto him at this point. He's an RFA in the off-season so he's still under control. You can reassess him then and deal him and/or sign him. I don't care for Johnson and I feel Spooner + 2nd is too rich of an offer for him.

We learned last year that NHL defensive depth is needed in the playoffs so i hold off on dealing McQuaid for a late round pick. He's a movable piece in the offseason if needed, but you can't have enough depth. RHD is weak to begin with for Boston, and who is the next man up, should any one of McAvoy/Carlo/Miller go down; Postma? Woof.</div></div>

Those are good points. The hope with the trade is that Johnson would play his ass off to get one last big contract, and maybe the B's could benefit from that. As for Postma, I'd feel more comfortable with O'Gara coming up (in the situation here that I've traded Quaider) and filling in for a few games.

Sujet: Hoffman
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Green4D4Again</b></div><div>I think it's fair but you have to consider that Ottawa has insane depth down the middle right now (C). Barring movement from players like Pageau, Smith and Brassard, Spooner is just not going to get ice-time / redundancy down the middle with the likes of White, Brown, Chlapik, Batherson ready to make the jump next year. Its players like Zenyshyn that Ottawa covets because they need a top 6 forward / winger in the future. Something like Zenyshyn, Fitzgerald and 1st would be the counter offer IMO.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BreKel</b></div><div>I offered the same thing, minus Fitzgerald, in a mock. I'd be for this. Hoffman is capable of playing his off-wing and would potentially be deadly in the top 6.</div></div>

Yeah and to the fact OTT doesn't want Centers, Spooner has excelled on the wing this year, and Fitzgerald is capable of playing wing as well, which would give OTT more flexibility with their new pieces, as well as their own prospects being brought into the fray.

Sujet: Quick Mock
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TopCornerShot</b></div><div>Don't want Jagr back. Connauton isn't a legit top 6 defender. Heinen gets left out in this one in favor of DeBrusk, which I don't think is likely. Seeing how Nash is better defensively and was 49% FO last season and Czarnik was about 43%, I don't see how you have Czarnik getting the call at C.

The overall structure of the team is good, but there were some problems.</div></div>

I like Jagr, as long as he will play the role he should at his age/skill. He's no longer a full-time top 6, and is an extremely useful PP specialist. If he would be willing to play that role, then I think he could be more helpful than hurtful.

I think Heinen/DeBrusk will end up either on Krecji's left or Bergy's right depending on how camp goes. I brought DeBrusk up in this one as he's more of a pure scorer than Heinen, which is (I think) more helpful to Krecji. Heinen is the better overall prospect I feel, but ultimately I think DeBrusk serves better as Krecji's LW.

Czarnik I brought in at C purely as a quick switch from where Moore was. I think there will be some tinkering with who centers that line throughout the season, and I would be open to Nash centering it all year.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bigbrit93</b></div><div><div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bchapman88</b></div><div>Don't see that being enough for Scandella, especially considering Spooner really has no place on the Wild.

He doesn't fit their needs at all and is a really limited player. And the 2-2.5 he's likely to get eats into their cap savings from Scandella, which makes him even less valuable imo</div></div>

I had actually thought that after the expansion draft, and the Wild losing Haula and Tuch, they could do with forwards? I had seen mock's that had the Wild sending a pick back to the Bs, for one prospect and a mid round pick. So I felt two offensive young forwards could be enough value for him. I would still give up a potential 3rd or 4th if the Wild wanted it.</div></div>

And as I write that, Scandella has reportedly been traded to the Sabres haha. <a href="https://www.thescore.com/news/1326943" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.thescore.com/news/1326943</a>

Sujet: Next season w/Muzzin and Draft
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JP23</b></div><div>I like this scenario; only a few small, very arguable changes imo. I would bury Hayes in Providence, have Kuraly and Cehlárik to open with Boston, and swap Krug with Muzzin (i don't think Krug and McAvoy are good enough in their zone to be a permanent pair). I like the balance of youth and veterans on all 4 lines, and Foote would be a pretty ideal draft choice.</div></div>

I had Hayes up just as an NHL body. I would probably trade him for a late round pick this year or next, or as you said just bury him in Prov for the year. I debated putting Chara and McAvoy together, but I feel McAvoy will play 1st pairing minutes, and am unsure how 40 yo Chara will handle that. I was going to put Krug with Carlo as their games are very different that they would be productive. Carlo would stay put and cover for Krug while he runs up.

Sujet: Offseason moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ON3M4N</b></div><div>Love the idea of Fowler, but I think 1st + DeBrusk++ is a starting point for him.</div></div>

I was hoping they would look at Chiller's potential as well as Heinen's IQ as pluses, allowing the package to be a little light. I'd still feel comfortable giving them DeBrusk, a 1st, Spooner, and a little more if it meant getting Fowler (as long as he agrees to resign). I wouldn't dish all that out for just a year of him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bruins_Fan_78</b></div><div>Pretty sure you'd have to give up RFA Rights/Draft Pick to get Vegas to take Beleskey. After this season Vegas will be taking K. Miller or McQuaid over any of the Bruins exposed forwards.</div></div>

Yeah I was doing this in the hopes they might look at him at think he could return to his old form. I'd give up a 2nd or 3rd to have Vegas take him.
