Hmm the MDZ thing makes sense. If only he was a BIT younger, it might justify not paying him as much but oh well. I LOVE Stall Talk hahaha. Provy has proven to be the best D man on our team and for years to come no doubt. Gudas is a key piece to this defense and not only is he physical when we need him to be, but he is very defensively responsible. Top pairing? Questionable but with the other four you got there, it makes sense. I'm not sure about having two rookies on the same line, however. It COULD work for chemistry reasons, but Morin I feel should start his NHL career on the third line, but that's just an opinion. Sanheim is exciting but I see why he didn't make it through camp. BUT, he is tearing it up in LV so his spot on the team has been warranted for next year, I approve. The thing is this D core is still very young and I could see interruptions and hiccups in development from putting so many young guys together. That's a theory thing however, so who knows it could end up benefiting the young guys.</i></div></div>

Morin and Sanheim are actually partners at LV, so I think that chemistry is helping them develop together. Plus you'd have enough vets around, even if MacDonald stays, they might want to do it. I can also see Haag making a push for the team. This defense is gonna be good for years to come once everyone gets sorted out. I think they need to add another righty along with Myers in the system through the draft.

The down side is that our forward group is getting older and their doesn't look to be much help on the way in terms of a can't miss guy (maybe Lindholm but he's a big unknown right now), unlike on D and in goal</i></div></div>

Honestly, since we have so much depth in goalie, maybe trade one of the younger guys for a promising young F. Hart and Sandstrom killed it in the WJC so what if we could include a deal with one of them and an older depth F for Kapenen? We have G, V, and Simmer for years to come and our younger guys like Schenn, Coots, and Raffl have shown some real veteran knowledge and skill this year. I think these guys can be the future vets when the GVSIM line becomes old and past their prime. Basically every move Hextall has made since he has taken the position has impressed me (Pronger, Luke Schenn, RINALDO) so I could speculate all day but I trust he gets a decent F either before deadline, or for next season. With this defense, we're getting rid of contracts next year to make more cap room for that move. Streit's 5M and Schultz' 2.2M will create space when our young guys are still in entry level deals :)

Well let's focus on the Defense then. I feel like MDZ and Manning might be worth keeping around assuming Manning continues to have low cost contracts and I remember what MDZ looked like on a stacked back-end Rangers team. It was very impressive! I want those nice things. Streit will be gone by years end if not sooner because we ain't resigning him, but it we trade him before, we can actually get a decent return. Schultz- same sitch he's old and we're not resigning him. AMac will be here forever. FOREVER. THANKS HOMER... but I feel like he actually could give a just-good-enough veteran presence. I don't think that those four young D men on the Phantoms could ALL possibly make the team next year. Imagine having such little actual experience in the more risk-oriented zone of the ice. That said, I'm very very excited to see this D core in a few years, man! and let'd not forget about Ghost. I personally think trading him is a mistake, he will have better actual defenders to back him up as he focuses on offense from the blue line, while also gaining experience and technique to further improve his defensive skill.</i></div></div>

I see you're arguemnt for MDZ and it makes sense. The problem is he's playing top-4 minutes. If you want the NYR version, he should be a 3rd pair guy and the amount we would have to pay him, i think, would be too much. I agree with you on the Ghost thing. While he would bring back the most return if traded, I think he's become an important part of the 1st PP. Personally, I think he can be a 3rd pair, PP guy and that would be fine. When I think of him, I think of a lefty Sami Vatanen in Anaheim.

I don't think all 4 of the kids will be here next year, however I can see two of them making it; although I do believe, eventually, one of them will be moved for a forward based on team needs (and shear number of kids and future deals. Here's the D i'm thinking of next year: Can see them adding a cheap UFA and move on from Manning or send AMac to LHV again

Provorov - Gudas
Morin - Sanheim
Manning - Ghost
MacDonald (Thanks HOMER....)</i></div></div>

I mean I'm not taking it too seriously lol (if it was directed towards me). Did you make this up as a joke? Aren't you trying to make reasonable moves that might help our team? It's definitely interesting to see how you might make that happen, I just happen to disagree.</i></div></div>

I apologize, that comment was not directed at you (really it was DirtyDangles, but whatever). I didn't make this up as a joke. I really believe these moves, especially the moves that get us picks for our UFA D-men, are reasonable and logical to make with the position we are in and the market. If you disagree, that's fine. I welcome it personally, just as long as there is more that just bantering (DirtyDangles) back and forth. If you had another thought, I'd be happy to hear it and take it under consideration. I honestly just want to get the D better, and in my opinion that involves getting a combination of MDZ, Streit, Schultz, Manning, AMac out and getting Sanheim, Morin, Myers, Hagg up here fast. but that's just me.</i></div></div>
