Canadian teams shouldn't trade with New Jersey :

Zach Parise for MA Pouliot + JF Jacques
Cory Schneider for Bo Horvat
Hall for Larsson

There are more.

- MaxTLimit


Do you actually watch hockey? Horvat is going to be a beast (and he's already shown flashes of it at the tender age of 20). At the time of the deal it seemed like the trade was uneven but that's no longer the case.

Canucks fans are very happy about how things panned out - try watching a few Canucks games and you'll see Horvat is going to be a stud

Ugh, Helgeson needs to stay in albany. A less terrible Fraser.

I actually think the biggest part of that trade was getting the #8 pick that year, which turned into Maata. But maybe you value Dumoulin more lol.

Yeah, nice to have an exciting player in NJ.

It turned into Pouliot. Which is very close to busting. He's got some work to do. Maatta was taken with our own pick.

Congrats on Hall. We're envious in Pens land.

Why? Until Zacha shows he can produce consistently in the NHL or can bring consistent play, having him on the three line is best to start him.

Zajac is garbage offensively. Let him win faceoffs on the third line.

Let helgeson play with andy greene, then maybe two years from now we can get mcdavid for helgeson?

He put up 42 points on an offensively challenged team. Zacha, at some point this year, will hit a wall as a rookie, it always happens. DON'T RUSH HIM INTO A ROLE HE ISN'T READY FOR. A year on the 3rd line would help him break into the league, then next year have him start on the 2nd line.

- shvingter88


Watched him many times and, yes, he's an excellent goaltender - having said that, don't undervalue Horvat, the kid is legitimate and poised to be a star. I've seen both Schneider and Horvat play quite a lot, and I'm extremely happy how things have panned out (for both teams, it would seem)

Get Zajac the heck off that second line.
- jersey1414


I want too, id I'd rather him off this team all together. He's a third line center...

you should know what ugly hockey is, the Devils of the Brodeur era were a staple of it.

And I'll take the Canucks jerseys over the Christmas green and reds any time (very mature post, by the way )

This is a good trade even though larsson was my favorite defender.

Hall-Rico-cammy
Boucher-zajac-Palm tree
Elias-Zacha-Dsp/blender
Kalinin-JJ-??

Greene-severson
Moore-schlemko/free agent (hopefully no merrill)
Auvtivu-Sanitini

Maybe something in that nature, possibly make a run for stamkos?

- Osiris4


Probably the worse defense in the league. A 2nd pair that should be a 3rd pair and 2 guys no one knows how/when/if they will play in the NHL.

So replace him with an 19 year old Zacha with exactly 1 game of NHL experience?

That era brought 3 championships. Oh sorry, a championship is something that you win when you're the best team that year.

Christmas Tree jerseys aren't current but one game a year.

But we can go a little more current:
