Sujet: Realistic PLD to LAK Roster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>doughty99</b></div><div>Villardi will sign a bridge deal because he wants to stay in LA and that’s the only way he fits under the cap. He’s had one good season, which is why the number will be around $3M. If Blake ends up trading for PLD, it will be with the understanding that his payday will come next season when the cap goes up significantly and Kopi’s contract comes off the books.

If PLD is on the market, it’s because he’s forcing WPG’s hand. The Jets aren’t coming from a place of strength and the Kings won’t include Vilardi, Byfield or Spence. They no longer have the prospect depth at RD after trading Faber and Grans.

Iafallo is a 2nd liner or a 3rd liner on a true, top contender. Durzi is a top 4 Dman who can play either side. Kupari is a young 3C with a lot of potential. Calling any of them bottom of the lineup guys isn’t accurate.</div></div>

Bottom half… my bad.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoSeider53</b></div><div>It came out last summer when his wife gave birth to their child, it was mentioned by a few insiders that he wanted to be near home. And since when is LA a legit contender. They're technically still in their rebuild phase.</div></div>

Ok. So it’s the same thing as Trouba signing in Detroit. Not something Helle has ever said, just something others have wondered if it would be the case and then it becomes a “fact”. All I’ve heard Helle say is he wants to sign with a contender to win a cup and has no interest in a rebuild.

I think the Kings with Helle would be contenders but we can agree to disagree on that. The playoffs should have showed the Devils they need an upgrade between the pipes and they are my front runner.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyIsMyPassion61</b></div><div>True, But i doubt Dubby gives up the 14 OA for a one year rental. just saying.</div></div>

There’s a good chance it would be even more than just 14oa if you actually wanted him. Buffalo probably gives up 13oa+ so you’d need to beat their offer as their pick is one spot sooner.

The pens prospect cupboard is pretty empty so it’s going to be a pretty long rebuild. Helle can drag any team into the playoffs. Will Sid and Geno have any magic left for once they get there. Kind of owe it to the hockey world to find out.

The one thing he likely learned in TO is that there is no replacement for good goaltending so I would assume addressing that will be a top order of business.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dougford</b></div><div>Top line C? Woah there bucko.

He's a 2C. Averages 60pts a season, subpar defensive metrics, not the best off ice track record, and has never proven good in the playoffs.

I made this in the ABOLUTE EVENT that Hughes, for some reason, wanted him now. And in the event of this trade, I provided a first, and a young, middle 6 player. Hop off the high horse.</div></div>

Entitled to your opinion but not your own facts. He tore Toronto a new one when he was in Columbus as exhibit A. There are easily searchable articles on what a strong playoff performer he is.

We’re clearly done here and it’s easy to see why. You view him as a 2c when he is better than Suzuki. He would be the best c on the Habs. Saying he is a 2c means you think there are at least 32 Cs that are better than him.

He scored 63 points in 73 games last season and was above a ppg pace when he picked up the hip flexor injury. He played through it but production did drop.

Plenty of scouting reports indicate that he’s strong defensively. I’m not familiar with which metrics you’re quoting since you didn’t actually provide any proof or send me somewhere I could look up the information for myself. We specifically played him with weak defensive players because he was strong in the d zone.

We couldn’t possibly have opinions further apart about PLD as a player which explains the gap in value. Good news for everyone really because the insulting trade proposal followed up by an insulting UFA offer means he likely doesn’t end up in Montreal and Habs fans don’t really want him nor do they really need him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>Ylonen is worth at least a 3rd and probably a 2nd I'm thinking, he was a pretty early 2nd himself so he's probably worth a mid to late 2nd still, its tough to say really.

How would he not push Barron down to the 4th line where he should be? Barron sucks!.. lol

Personally I think keeping PLD to trade him at the 2024 TDL would be a dumb and very risky move and don't think the return would be much better.

Would the Avs give their 1st which is 27th overall and one of Ollosson or Berens, those two are probably their best prospects but neither look all that good yet, no better then Ylonen anyway, unless the Avs are willing to part with Newhook I don't see anything they'd likely be willing to offer
as any better then whats proposed here.</div></div>

But what about Seattle? Give Wright another year of seasoning and with their deep run they have to be thinking it may be worthwhile to add. That would be 20oa and then maybe Firkus or Goyette.

I’d want the prospect to be waiver exempt so we’d have options or be a clear cut middle 6 player.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>O'Reilly just went for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd, gotta be able to get at least that for Duchois but this isn't that far off of that really, Ylonen looks decent.</div></div>

I actually like Ylonen too, but the risk and reward is in how high the first is. We’d have locked ourselves into the lowest or second lowest possible pick. In your view is ylonen worth a 2nd, 3rd and then another second to trade up to where another pick likely falls? He’s not 2 - 2nds and a 3rd good to me. He’s a maybe middle six winger that would not push Barron down to the 4th line. So it’s Gus or him in the press box. A super late first and guy that may be a healthy scratch all year ain’t it for me.

Colorado doesn’t want Scheif but they would want pld…. Just saying.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dougford</b></div><div>Rentals aren't worth as much as players who sign extensions. It's not guaranteed PLD will extend, and teams are going to go off of recent bias and assume he wants to play in Montreal.

Teams won't be lining up to sell the house for a TDL rental. It could be a first, sure, but it won't be much more than that.</div></div>

Go take a look at the return for top line c’s at the deadline and then filter down to those that turned out to be rentals and then get back to me. “Could be a 1st” who do you think you’re tricking? The comps are there. Find me a top line c rental that didn’t return a 1st+? I don’t think it’s ever happened. Maybe if they had a nmc and picked their destination or something but that wouldn’t be a relevant comp here.

Habs have the pieces to make a competitive offer, the fan base on here is choosing not to thinking they’re the only game in town, like he had a no move and would only waive to Montreal. He has a lot of value even as a rental to a team with no intention of extending him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mglgoalie33</b></div><div>a realistic Jets guy? Seriously, thank you for the Windjammer slander.</div></div>

I think the commentary on the Habs trade and the fact he has Samberg on the bench and not locked into our top 4 shows he’s a Habs guy, not a Jets guy. A team like Seattle, Colorado, Carolina, Boston, that already knows they are a top 6 c from being a true contender and will be in the market for a rental will give more.

Convenient that other Jets stars are traded most of these places to satisfy their needs/use up their cap.

I’d rather hold PLD and flip him at the trade deadline then take a weak return like that. Unless someone we really like slips to 31 there is really no reason for the jets to lock in the worst case value for the 1st round pick acquired for a rental.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RicXX</b></div><div>I did open discussion... add the 5oa pick and get the 19th in return... Chi is going to end up with the 11th OA anyways so... Van needs out of the hole they dug, and Chi is willing to help, but VAN will be paying, and paying alot</div></div>

To move from 17 to 5 I gave up 17, pld, Barron and Heinola. I actually thought it was a tongue in cheek response of the huge over correction on the counter to show how crazy the original ask was.

My bad for not recognizing it as a serious counter.

Reichel just isn’t proven enough for me to consider anything like that. He went ppg in the AHL and had a promising 20 game stretch but I’m not familiar enough to know if it was a hot spell, a cold spell or if that production could be counted on in the future.

The entire acgm is based on drafting a top line C at 5 so I couldn’t then trade that pick for a winger. As an ncaa player Rinzel has risk for us too as it’s easy for people to just skip to UFA. It always makes me nervous until they actually sign.

You look at Logan Cooley and you just wonder…

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CF18GM</b></div><div>And if Lambert isn't ready? And what about the eventual Ehlers/Perfetti injuries that are bound to happen? Theres no glory in shooting yourself in the foot.

And would you really spend money to watch the Winnipeg Moose rebuild from literal scratch for the next ten years?</div></div>

To be clear, I do t think we should do this but to be the devil’s advocate. If Lambert isn’t ready, you could try Lucious or shift 55 to rw and trey Perfetti at C with Barron or Harkins at 2lw.

I don’t feel like Ehlers/Perfetti are bound to be injured but they both got hurt last year so I clearly can’t say they won’t either. I agree that this likely sets the franchise back a half decade if everyone decides to walk for nothing.

I would still pay, but I can afford to and I like going to the games with my friends. I like watching the shiny new toy and really we’ve retained so many guys it feels pretty stale. We need some new blood even just to keep it entertaining.
