Let's just hope whether it takes pride, confidence or recovering from an injury that Giroux get's out of the funk he's in. I refuse to believe the player he was has fallen off a cliff.

Sitting here and I want more hot takes. Need more hot takes.

I know they could find a partner.

Look at what the return was for Toronto. Maybe it pans out but nothing to really love about it now.

Just saying return for Giroux would probably not be sexy.
- J35Bacher

Yeah and that return was with only 1.25M retained. Obviously that pick and/or prospect improve based on how much salary is retained but they still got 3 prospects and 2 picks; 1 pick which eventually got them their (hopefully) franchise goalie. I guess it can be argued the sexiest part of either of these two deals is the cap relief; or the prized lottery pick rewarded due to your team losing a key player. Except Leafs willingly tanked whereas we probably would naturally slide to the bottom

Giroux has busted more than Konecny.

Do almost whatever it takes to aquire a top 2 pick at the draft.

I could go for some hot cakes.

The time to do that would have been the past 2 drafts.

If you'd have said, "We should try Konecny out at 2C when he comes back".....now that's a good hot take.

Are you as positive as he is about this?

We should replace MacDonald's beet powder with steroids and lsd.

Maybe.

Laine would have been good to us

It's shocking how tying the Sixers's future to two of the most volatile franchises in the NBA could work out splendid.

Oh, and Magic LOVES Okafor.

Then trade it away...5 years later.. get ridiculously lucky in back to back drafts.

Said the same thing to my buddy when I got the update on Magic taking over. Supposedly Indiana is showing interest now though. But if those two wanna deke it out over our boy its fine by me.

We weren't bad enough to pick there, and those 4 picks weren't being traded anyway. Not saying we could or should, but in a weaker draft, trading up from where we could pick is more feasible and realistic. You don't need the best player in the NHL. Hischier could be a stud too.

So.....just replace his beet powder with your beet powder, you're saying?

I don't think he's ready for DMT beet hybrid powders.

Vandevelde on the other hand...

VandeVelde plays with the energy and focus of someone who just ate a whole Chipotle burrito 15 minutes before game time. He could use some beet powders.

I know I'm just shoulda coulda woulda -ing, I'm curious to see who goes first between Hischier and Patrick. I also wonder if ARZ has any intentions on dealing their pick between how much cap space they will have and how many high level prospects they already have.
