Sujet: If You ReBuild It They Will Come
As a wings fan, Im still of the mindset to be patient. I think we have a lot of valuable pieces that we should be moving to add younger guys and draft picks. IMO Seider is the real building block. Dude plays so smart and seasoned at such a young age. Not to mention his physical ability. When he hits his prime, I like to think he's going to be another Victor Hedman. But I think his career will be very lengthy just because he plays so smart. That type of mindset for a defenseman usually breeds longevity. We've got some decent prospects in our pipeline. But with a pieces like Seider, Raymond, Kasper, Edvinsson, homegrown Carter Mazur, Sebrango, Soderblom, Rasmussen, patience is the name of the game. All these guys are still children and we've got a pretty deep prospect pool. Lots of hometown vets who will stick around for maybe even the rest of their careers. We still need to find some serious high end offensive talent and fill out the d core. I really like Rasmussens game. I think hes got a ton of potential to be a two way power forward force who becomes outstanding defensively. I wouldnt be opposed to selling guys when their values are high, even if it would be of benefit to keep them around. Guys like Hronek, Kubalik, Sundqvist.

Sujet: Vegas TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheeDjeeEem</b></div><div>Something tells me Vegas is a gamblin type of team

This trade makes them much better this year

...and maybe even next because if Thompson doesn't pan out in playoffs they have flexibility to get another netminder</div></div>

lol good point. I agree that Boyd will be a great piece to sell at the deadline to a number of teams. Goaltending doesnt make much sense. They can take Broissoit, sure. Hes on an expiring deal and injured so if AZ could get anything to take him then its really no loss. Lehner has an 8 team no trade list this year and a 5 team the next 2 years. He doesnt fit in AZ cause Vejmelka is their guy and thats a lot of money to eat for a lot of years. Vegas is going to have to pay more than that to offload him to a team like Arizona. Even more will be required if Lehner doesnt return or his play declines

Sujet: Barz needs a partner - Does this trade make sense
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>Forwards usually peak at 24,25 YO and Konecny turns 26 in a few months. It’s very risky to trade a 1st for a guy who isn’t a legitimate 1st liner</div></div>

thats understandable, but i dont think he's reached his peak yet. I think him and Barz would make a great pair. On the isles, he's definitely a first line player. I dont think its that risky seeing as how the Lam has shown that he thinks this is their window. Worst case scenario he puts up 50 points a year and is paid no more than a lot of other dead weight on the isles roster,, and his deal is up in 2025. Still has some trade capital because of his age if this were to fail miserably. I think its a good fit. Sure he doesnt have the work history to make anyones eyes light up, but he definitely has the talent and skill that I think would compliment Barzal nicely.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>No he’s not, he’s a very good 2nd liner. The previous two seasons he was on pace for less than 20 goals, 50 pts.

A good start to this season doesnt all of a sudden make him first line caliber. Sample size matters</div></div>

yeah i agree sample size matters. philly was a trainwreck last year, no one could score. sure if were looking at his body of work then you could say hes a very good 2nd liner, but theres more to it than that. He has had 1 really good season and this year hes playing great but that will likely taper off because hes carrying such a load for philly offensively. I dont think he's had his breakout season yet. I think he's a first liner. He hasnt really had amazing chemistry with anyone yet. If he was paired with a guy like Barzal and all goes well, he could definitely get beyond the 90 point mark IMO. he has the ceiling, it just hasn't come together great for him yet
