  1. Id do Hanifin for Lafreniere for sure. The Lindholm trade seems like solid value as well depending on the pick coming back.
  2. Wonder if Mitch Love had anything to do with the Phillips to Washington thing. Would have liked to see him get a greater opportunity this season bit im not that broken up about him moving on.
  3. Keep seeing that NYR are actively shopping Lafreniere. Thoughts on cost acquisition? I wouldn't mind picking up the former 1st OA.
  4. 7.75 per for Orlov 😯 Only 2 years but wow thats a lot
  5. Matt Duchene as well. 40 goals 2 years ago. Fast. LHS but also plays RW
  6. Sounds like Blake Wheeler will be bought out. Buy low opportunity? Big RHS RW
  7. Agreed. Putting too much emphasis on size is how you end up with a 6'7" plug like Hunter Smith in the second round.
  8. The plus side of a time difference is im usually not working when things I want to see in the hockey world are happening. The negative side is they happen in the middle of the night/ungodly hours of the morning so I'm always tired for work the next day 😴 😪
  9. Surprised Michkov fell to 7. When he does come over the Flyers are going to have a very talented player on their hands
  10. Glad to have another poster! I know how it feels being a lurker. Been a part of the forums since 2009 technically but have only been posting regularly in the last few years. GFG!
  11. This makes me wonder if there is a case to be had for Kipper as a HOFer. Never won a cup but just like King Henrik (and maybe moreso) I think its indisputable he was one of (if not the) best goalies in the world for a short time. Won a Vezina and again like Henrik has a SCF appearance to his name. Have heard Pekka Rinne's name thrown around lately for a future HOF call and imo Kipper is more deserving.
  12. Assuming Backlund and Toffoli for sure want to be traded i think you could potentially hang onto them until the deadline to try and maximize a return from a contender looking for a missing piece. Risky with Toffoli though as his value probably wont be higher than it is right now.
  13. I think you could for sure get a 1st for Lindy and Hanifin among other assets. Toffoli may fetch one from the right team. I think for Backlund you'd probably have to throw in a later pick to recoup a first in a deal with him.
  14. The Toffoli thing is actually great news. Could cash in big after the year he had. Unlikely to repeat it.
  15. Man where are those pipe-dream Eklund "rumors" when you need them 😪
  16. I agree with this. Figure out where you stand and if there is any uncertainty whatsoever you deal them now for max return. Both Lindholm and Hanifin could fetch a fair bit in a trade.
  17. This is how I remember it as well but I have many a friend that say im misremembering.. 😆
  18. Its the Berenstein/Berenstain fiasco all over again. 😰
  19. Hearing lots of chatter that Huska is all but official at this point. Wasn't my first or second choice, but its a lot better than some of the other names I had heard. Seems like a safe pick but ill reserve judgement for now.
  20. The Severson deal makes me nervous about a Hanifin extension. Severson played sheltered minutes mostly on the 3rd pair for a good Devils team. By all accounts Hanifin is the superior player. The only thing Severson has on him is the RHS
  21. Especially as a deadline deal. We got a great return at the time for Kris Russell. May not look like much today but getting a 2nd, a prospect and an NHLer in return is great value for a guy thats not coming back anyway.
  22. Honestly I would be stoked if we got a new goalie coach. Been a serious weak spot in this organization for some time IMO. Labarbera and Sigalet are/were not the answer.
  23. Yeah I agree. I think arrogance is something that should be avoided when looking at a head coach.
  24. This makes sense. Necas is due a pretty good raise. That said I'd still be really interested.
