<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Jarvis literally is on Carolina's top line, and plays short-handed on the best PK in hockey... I'd rather have Jarvis right now.</div></div>

So you’d rather have Jarvis who produces at a lower clip given top line quality teammates than Jeannot who is given third line quality teammates and manages to produce? Each their own I guess. Jeannots play style, physicality, and tenacity fit Nashvilles needs more so I’m probably biased as can be.

Don’t get me wrong, I think Jarvis has the higher ceiling… I just think if we look at where we are now and the opportunities that have been afforded the players Jeannot &gt; Jarvis at this particular moment in time. Who knows about next week… I’d love to see Jeannot on Nashvilles second line with Johansen and Kunin. It’d be a very heavy line with a lot more skill than he’s used to

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CEO</b></div><div>How about replacing Tomacino with Glass+ a 1st?</div></div>

To be honest i don’t think poile would trade that much for one guy. Because I don’t think that one player will help us win the cup. We just strengthen our prospect pool a lot after draining it for years. And this trade would take last years 1st rounder, this years 1st, a player that was a 1st rounder 2 years ago and a big defenseman. That’s a lot to lose for a team who wasn’t supposed to be a contender this year but surprised the league so far. I still have faith glass will turn it around after being injured the last couple years. He just has to get his confidence up. If poile does make a trade I look for it to be someone cheap or someone he can keep long term.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>josi4norris</b></div><div>If he's their top forward prospect then I guess COL would be fine sending Newhook to NSH instead of Olausson, unless you don't consider him a prospect anymore. Switch those two and I think you get NSH talking.</div></div>

Newhook is a rookie but not a prospect. The Avs expect him to contribute this season, then take over for Kadri the next. Byram also is playing in the Rookie Showcase and is not a prospect.

Forsberg is your run of the mill TDL rental. As a NSH fan, one might look around the league and see several tantalizing young trade targets. The question is: are teams actually willing to part with them?

The Avs top prospects are, in no order: Olausson, Barron, Ranta, &amp; Helleson. You could surely sub a 1st for one of these, but COL doesn't own a 1st in the 22 draft. I think Olausson has the best raw talent and highest upside, and will already be developing in Barrie by the TDL. After one AHL season he should be NHL ready.

Sujet: Eichel to Nash
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>josi4norris</b></div><div>I wouldn't do this if I'm NSH either. They'd be giving up the top goalie prospect in the NHL, their top forward prospect, and a potential early 1st round pick. They get to dump two bad contracts, but they take an even worse one back. I don't think NSH uses any picks/top prospects to dump Johansen or Duchene. I also don't think Buffalo adds Skinner to an Eichel trade to decrease his value dramatically.</div></div>

Completely agree. Buffalo already has 3 decent goalie prospects as well so this would kinda clog the pipeline.

Sabres need Skinner contract to hit the cap floor, he also has a NTC. Nashville should be focused on rebuilding, rather then giving up their best futures for a shot at being a middle teir team.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>josi4norris</b></div><div>I don’t think NSH accepts the trade either. I think they’d rather just re-sign Forsberg. I don’t see what you see when you say he has been regressing significantly since 2018. Yes, he had a career year in 2018 but I wouldn’t consider going from 64 pts in 67 games to 32 pts in 39 games a significant regression, especially when Forsberg drives his line regardless of who he plays with.</div></div>
The deal is contingent on Poile’s commitment to youth. Considering the Ellis trade, I figure he’s likely to try to roll the dice on an unproven prospect. And for you Sharangovich lovers in the comment section, he’s not worth as much as you think. He’s a 5th round pick who’s played one season and has shown potential. That’s a far cry from Forsberg: a proven NHL star.

Sujet: Competitive
It's quite interesting, and part of me would love to see it, but just too risky. Aside from relying heavily on too many rookies to step in and contribute right away as you mentioned, I don't think there's much depth left. When a few inevitable injuries happen, there aren't really any capable replacements left in the system.

After next season there won't be enough cap space to retain or replace players like Forsberg, Ekholm, and Kunin, and the next wave of NHL ready young players have all been traded away to SEA and BUF here. Their talent pool would be too thin for NSH to be competitive after 21-22. You'd only get one season out of this lineup, and everything would have to go absolutely perfectly (no rookie hiccups, no major injuries, no key players having an off year). It could be a really fun ride, but way too big of a gamble for me.
