I understand the value of Tanev, but wow, just wow on that Buffalo trade. Mittlestadt just came off his best year, and is still young. Tanev is 33 and a 1 year rental. No matter how good you think Mittlestadt is, he just had a very good finish to the season; he might regress or he might improve. You don't just give that away for a 1 year rental, unless you have a cup window open and the player coming back is better than Tanev. Then, to top it off, you have picks going to Calgary? Wrong way on those picks there...

Vladar for a 3rd is optimistic. I've argued this before. Backup goalies who have gotten traded for a 3rd or better are almost all better than Vladar. A lot of the deals that were done were with salary retention or cap reasons. Yes, he is cheap, as all backups generally should be, but a sub .900 save % is not good, no matter how bad the team was in front of the guy.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ItsAlwaysSunnyInDetroit</b></div><div>I want Yzerman to make every single pick they have this year. Unless the opportunity to trade into the top 4 presents itself. These DeBrincat trade proposals have got to go. Take BPA all day, develop them for a year, trade Kubalik and Perron next deadline, see which of Matthews, Nylander, Aho, DeBrincat, Meier, Stephenson, Reinhart, etc make it to FA. At that point we'll have assets coming out the wazoo. That is the time to swing a big time trade.</div></div>

My only issue is the Isles pick. Yzerman may have a different idea, but I think there is a slim chance we can get two of Pelikka, Moore (both might be off the board by 9), Smith (high ceiling or bust), Leonard, Reinbacher, or Yager. If only 1 is available, and they are all gone at 17/18, then trading the pick for something else is better than getting a winger who can maybe help in a few years. There's a lot of good wingers in this draft, but none are close to ready outside of one's projected in the top 10-15 overall. Even still, I know nothing of Sale, Wood, or Heidt, and I'm not impressed by Benson

Sujet: My compromise to Detroit if they do not want to pay full price for the Cat

Pretty sure that's what I was getting at.

Ottawa will not get back what they paid. They will not get close to what they paid.

The Sens bought a nice low mileage sports car and they paid blue book value, maybe a bit above. A year later, there are more miles, and nobody is sure if that engine noise is ok or not. Probably nothing, but the noise is still there. The Sens are realizing tbe upkeep of their toy sports car is a little more than they thought it would be, and the car didn't drive like they thought it would. So tell me, who pays for a year older car with assured higher maintenance costs and possible problems?
