Just saying, Tanev is better than Larsson, and Edmonton had to trade Hall to get him. Dont expect to get brodin/tanev for anything less than a huge package (Canucks/MInn have been turning down better offers for years)

JVR eats too much chipotle and JB wouldnt touch him, plus the price of d men (tanev is 26 and loved by this org) now is crazy, You dont even start the Tanev conversation without offering,a Marner/Nylander/Brown+. I doubt JB is even considering trading Gudbransen/Tanev

Corky alert

No, has to be both. Can't just add one. It's Ryder, Halak + for whomever.
- weirdoh

I did say "and"...

We can't have it both ways. Be nice to hold onto them. But this day and age, no dice. I think anyway
- weirdoh

I think the forwards are only getting better... so JVR is expendable.. So no need to dangle some juicy low-hanging picks to get a guy to help the blueline.

Yup, hold out until UFA day.

July 1st is fun, but I really prefer they home grow more players. Short of Chara most big money ufa don't work out as good as you'd think.

JVR and retained salary for Tanev and Juolevi. Just kidding, Juolevi sucks.

The get either:

Dumba
Hjalmarsson
Ellis

my guess anyways.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Bowie, Theodore, and Ellis are mine.

okay sure..

run along now.

Yeah, Ill go actually watch games

decent, alright, okay, okay, we'll see, meh, who?

We don't have the amazing prospects that other teams want anymore, they're already on the team. And the Leafs realistically cant afford to ship more of the farm out, the Marlies are already pretty bad.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Do you think otherwise teams have amazing prospects that they are just keeping away from the NHL? Just refusing to play them on the big club?

If I had to guess, these amazing prospects in other organizations are akin to Kapanen, Nielsen, Bracco, Dermott and Lipstick.

Some get more air time and are vastly overrated like anyone with the last name Strome.

I've been hearing a lot about these Philly dmen that are amazing. I looked them up and none of them seem to be producing anywhere near the level of Nielsen

ok bye

okay sure..

Proper reply is ..
How the (frank) is Tanev better than Larsson?

Because Tanev is older, and not as good.

Not really, in some circumstances im sure they are NHL ready but there isnt a roster spot for them.

All those guy are like B to A- prospects imo...

How's the rest of the Phantoms? Do they win or maybe they just suck and drag down the 1/2 decent prospects. On the other hand Marlies were great last year and are ok again this year. ( I haven't looked at the PhantomS.....ever)

They're a (frank) load better than the Marlies

It's actually pretty darn close.
Compare the two:

Put Larsson on the offensively challenged Nucks and his offensive fancy dancy stats would drop like a brick while Tanev's defensive ability remains better.

Why can't a 12 year old "chick" have her own computer? Why does she have to use her brother's?
