Where in the world did you hear a 1st and prospect?

I would do 51 for him, or Foligno for him

- Stripes77

Rumored deals are 31 for lack or 21+grigorenko for lack + young D-man

It was posted a little earlier. I wouldn't move Foligno for him. I would do 51, if we lost out on Lehner, Gibson and some of the UFAs. I'm not so sure why people are high on lack.
- Mentalorgasm5


No so much they are high on Lack, he comes at a good price and has respectable numbers. He is a stop gap unless he stands on his head (being under Irbe its possible)

With as saturated as the young available goalie market is 31 is an over payment

Not moving 21 for a goalie no matter what else comes back unless its a top 6 forward.

I would do 51 and a prospect that's a high as I would go

Who would be your choice? I feel that we can probably get one of the UFAs to sign here which I think I would prefer just based on the fact that we don't have to give up anything for him.
- HonkFortheGoose

Mine would also be a UFA. There is so many on the market, and I feel any if not all would be fine to take a flyer on next year.

Edit: I would rather bring back nuevirth than trade for lack.

If we actually trade for a goalie instead of going the UFA direction, I hope it's Jones, Gibson or Lehner(in that order). I probably would be open to moving the 31st pick for the first two on that list.

I don't think 21 is in play for a goalie. I'm on record posting 31 for Lack or Talbot.

Agreed. No more big moneys on a goalie. Lets get the team out front built and winning.

Rather do pick 51 and a prospect. That gives murray flexibility to try to move up if he sees somebody in the mid teens. I think organizationally it makes sense to draft a left wing and a left d at 21 and 31, or package them to move up a few picks if there is a guy that he has to have. Goalie just is not a position im giving up assets for.

I did hear Cassel didn't have a good day one of the practices but to suggest a QB you just traded for to be your starter is going to get cut after OTA's is a bit absurd.
- Stripes77

But for some reason it wasn't absurd that Manuel would get cut ?

I wouldn't hate trying any of the three starters we had last year on a 1-2 year deal at 1.5-2M per.

When Manuel is going on his 3rd year here its apples and oranges

Also the cutting Manuel part came out well before OTA's. So if he had a poor showing in OTA's and training camp he could be cut.

If Cassel sucks it up in training camp and the pre season I will have no problems sending him home

Definitely took me a while to get into them. Once I found a few I liked, it made the transition easier. It definitely doesn't work for everyone.

Plus bringing in Tyrod seemed to show that Manuel was going to likely be 3rd on the list.
