I'm not saying I wouldn't like to have him, but not at the price of a massive overpayment. You set the prospect pool back two years by giving what you offered. He's not worth that to me/
- LeftCoaster

I can promise they are not going to let him go for Gaunce and a first unless that first is a top 7 pick. If it was a top 7 pick why would you trade

When Subban actually makes the NHL I will believe it. There is a difference between 5'8 and 5'11.

Benning won't trade any of the young guys, he's said so publicly, and Vatanen is 5'9.5 inches at best.

Yes, he has earned it and you need cheap hard working guys to fill in the 6-7 spot. He is a lot better than Stanton or Weber types and possibly Bart as well
- CanuckDon

I wonder if that means goodbye to Bart.

Not trading any high picks or kids....

No quick fixes, draft and develop.

We can argue all day but like I said you will be shocked with the return he will get. Lots of teams will be looking for his skill.

And we won't have SV in our lineup. We will be looking to find those gems of a deal like Schultz

He may very well, but it won't be from Benning.....I sincerely hope! They don't have the depth to do that.

Do you waste 1 of the 50 contracts on Kyle Pettit or let him re-enter the draft

Don't know

3rd best Face-off man in the OHL................ But he can barely score as a 20 year old.

tough call, I say no.
- classic321

Hes big good on the dot and plays good defense might be an ideal 4th line center but not to sure if hes worth it. Tough call as Labate seems to be playing a similar roll and has more offensive upside id imagine.

They just signed 5'10 Biega for 2 years

We will more than likely just re-sign Bartowski and wonder why our ad sucks again next year.

Draft and develop.
- LeftCoaster

or develop others mess ups Vey, Baertschi, Etem maybe it's time for a dman in that same category.

Problem is we have nothing in the system for at least four years, unless you are anointing Subban the saviour

or develop others mess ups Vey, Baertschi, Etem maybe it's time for a dman in that same category.

It's either draft a top 7 Dman . Trade or go to UFA and find a stop gap.

I won't be wondering, I'll know its Edler.
- A_SteamingLombardi

Shhhhhhhhhhhsh.

I would say Ducks will get either Eberle , Drouin, Ladd , Buff , or Staal for Sammi Vatanen

- VANTEL

I'd say try and trade for Trouba or Dumba.

I don't think Trouba is available unless for Hamonic.

Minny would want a kings ransom also . No good young D is cheap
