<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cbjthrowaway</b></div><div>what would the specific asks be for those teams, though?

the prospects in this cbj offer beat what montreal and dallas would be willing to offer. new jersey doesn't have the cap. carolina doesn't have the cap to do it this year unless vancouver wants to take back money/rentals. cbj's picks are far more valuable and make up the rest of the difference.

that leaves buffalo and detroit. i still don't think they'd offer enough to where cbj couldn't outbid without giving up jiricek/johnson, but then again, i still haven't seen a specific offer from those teams.</div></div>

I think the problem is you're not offering up any blue chip high end prospects for arguably a current top5 center. If development goes really well the most likely outcome for Marchenko/Sillinger/Mateychuk is 2nd line winger/2nd line center/2nd pair dman. The first round picks are likely in the 15-20 range with Petterson at center in Columbus so while you could add up everything and say look you're getting 4-5 first rounders I don't see any single piece that is going to wow Vancouver.

Just spitballing ideas, I have no idea if the teams below would trade the players for a player like Petterson or not. While your CBJ offer has more 1st rounder quantity I think any of the offers below would be more attractive in terms of quality to Vancouver.
Anaheim - Carlsson, Mintyukov, maybe 1 1st rounder
Buffalo - Benson, Rosen, 2 1st rounders
Detroit - Edvinsson, Kasper, 1 1st rounder

Arizona may be able to actually put together the best quality package but I'm leaving them out of everything until they play in an NHL arena.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Viqsi</b></div><div>Question: When you abruptly take a second-pairing guy - someone in that #3-4 range - and are forced to play him as your full-time #1 due to having <strong>four of your six starters on IR</strong>, what do you normally get to see?

Context matters. Folks come up with the same babble about Peeke because he's also one of the Sole Survivors Of The Apocalypse.</div></div>

His play didn't take a nosedive when Werenski got hurt. If anything he has actually looked <em>slightly</em> better since then. He didn't look good last year and he hasn't looked good this season no matter where he has been playing. You're holding on to the Gavrikov that looked great as a shutdown dman playing with Savard. Since Savard was traded Gavrikov just hasn't looked good.

Assuming Jarmo can't extend him what do you think is a fair value for Gavrikov at the TDL, keeping in mind there's likely to be a lot more sellers than usual this year? Maybe someone pays a 1st rounder but I personally think his value is closer to two 2nd rounders or a 2nd and a good prospect. It sure as heck isn't a 1st, a 3rd, a good young cost controlled top4 guy, and 1 1/2 roster players. If that was his value he wouldn't be signing anywhere for $4.75m.

I hope for the sanity of CBJ fans that other NHL GMs value Gavrikov as highly as they do because these proposals are getting crazy. I've been to seven CBJ games this season and can confidently state Gavrikov is one of the issues with the defense. His stats don't stink because he's playing with boat anchors, his stats stink because he just isn't very good. Yes he eats a lot of minutes but when he's on the ice he doesn't clear guys out of the crease, he doesn't battle in the corners, he doesn't really do anything except skate around, and he's not a very good puck mover. He's a bottom pairing dman on most good teams but everyone is hanging on to the Gavvy from four years ago when he formed a pretty good shut-down pair with Savard. Since then he's played 2LD because Jarmo/Torts/Larsen just don't have anyone else to put there.

He might very well return a 1st rounder but if I'm shipping out 1st and 3rd round picks, a good young top4 dman, and 1 1/2 roster players I'm looking for a lot better return than Gavrikov. With how many teams are likely to be sellers at the TDL this year that shouldn't be hard to find.
