<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mvp13</b></div><div>As a fan of both teams... wow, this is a terrible trade for NYR. NYR don't have to change anything at D. If there was any rumor between the two, it had to be for Lindholm. It makes no sense to swap Schneider for Tanev.

Looking at the supporting cast, Bonino and Gustaffsson (outside of his god awful turnover yesterday, but it happens) have been solid. Bonino is definitely meant to be the 4C, it's a temporary problem at the 3C position, that could probably be solved by putting Brodzinski there instead. It's not worth throwing the future away for this. Rose is a decent temporary upgrade at 3C, but Bonino is a much better 4C than he would be after Chytil heals up. Duher looked good last year, but he can't even crack the lineup full time in CGY this year, what makes you think he can make the roster full time in NYR?

I really don't get this one.</div></div>

No one does, except the poster.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mvp13</b></div><div>I think there is room for him, simply bench Scandella because I don't think anyone would want to trade for him, and I'm not sure it's worth giving up assets to unload him for one more year, while trying to find a way to navigate his M-NTC. While STL is getting a second buyout window, Scandella doesn't make 4mil to be bought out, and really none of the other buyout candidates would make sense, so this is likely going to be the starting lineup. This is part of the problem when you give your whole somewhat mediocre dcorps NTC/M-NTCs haha...</div></div>

You’re absolutely right. I wouldn’t give up an asset, maybe he’d be wanted at half retention. But regardless, I’d like to see Perunovich on the 3rd pairing and QB of the 2nd PP unit. If we run 8 defense, I want the starting 5 to be Parayko, Faulk, Krug, Leddy, and Perunovich. The other 3 can rotate (Scandella, Bortuzzo, and Rosen. Tucker to the TBirds), while we ride the hot hand. We can worry about making changes next off-season when we have more cap flexibility and 1 less year of term on some contracts we want to move.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mvp13</b></div><div>Maybe. There's like no relevant FA's that would cost much to invalidate this that would be a massive upgrade, though. Their forward depth has taken quite the hit. Their top 4 D should all play over 20 minutes. Even if they sign Nemeth or someone, that shouldn't cost over 1mil, then they just send Hunt down and it's the same thing.

I'd much rather invest in the perfect penalty killing 3C that can play 17+ strong minutes a night than worrying about what LD is playing ~12 minutes a night, but either way I think they could easily do both comfortably</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>swissmontana</b></div><div>Avs probably should be spending their remaining cap on a 3rd pairing defenseman to replace Jack Johnson, not another middle 6 center.</div></div>

6th D isn't playing much for the Avs if everyone is healthy.

Makar - 26
Toews - 25
Byram - 22
Girard - 21
Manson - 17

That leaves ~9 minutes a night for the 6th D when the other 5 hit their average. I think they are comfortable with the group of Johnson/Hunt/Malinski/MacDermid for the 6-9 D roles. Sure they could add someone, but there isn't much available in UFA that would be a tremendous upgrade on those 9 minutes a night unless they want to bring in Bear to put on LTIR for the first half of the season. I would be interested in trading for Peeke but that's about it.

Personally I would like to see them add a C/RW to fill 3RW and compliment Colton on the 3rd line. Backlund works if they feel he can play his off hand. Roslovic would be fine. Granlund with retention or after a buyout if the Pens need to move on from him to make room for EK's cap hit in a trade.

Sujet: Lindholm for wright
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>McRanteskog</b></div><div>LMAO god is this ever a bad take.

Does it escape your mind that Wright projects to be a franchise C with a much higher upside than a career 55p/season player?

By your logic “Wright only has 8 NHL games… no guarantee to be close to Lindholm”etc. why not just trade for Bedard instead? He’s got no NHL games played, hasn’t proven to be as good as Lindholm either lol XD</div></div>

I get not wanting to trade Wright for Lindholm, but you're being disingenuous portraying Lindholm as a 55 point player. That's like saying Wright will score at a 0.25ppg pace for his whole career. Lindholm averages 72 pts/82 games since coming to Calgary and if Wright becomes a player of that caliber, then it's probably close to best scenario for him. I actually Wright and Lindholm were quite similar as prospects
