Yes. Let's watch everyone around us get better while we struggle to score goals all year and win every game 3-2 in OT. Lou should never make a trade

Weren't you the same guy that said that the Coyotes would be worse with Hall?

Yes. Yes you were.

Don't see how they can be worse with an elite scorer?

Shero got hosed hopefully it helps us with the perceived new value of a top 6 if we manage to acquire anyone.

I'm sure The Islanders are sniffing around. Hope they do as well.

Gotta think Aho is definitely in play. It's obvious that Leddy isn't going anywhere and Dobson is a non-starter in a deal.

I wonder if OTT would take Komarov's contract along with something like 2020 2nd and Sebastian Aho.

They are overachieving right now. Hall or no Hall. That team is coming back to earth

For Pageau? I think it may take more especially if they’re taking that pile of garbage.

Ah yes, the Pacific division leading Coyotes are going to add an elite scorer and get worse.

How did I miss that one?

They've been "overachieving" for about the same amount of time as the Islanders, so I guess we're coming back to earth too.

Maybe, but Aho isn't a throwaway prospect. He's an NHL player for sure, maybe a 4th defenseman or a real good third pair guy that can move the puck. He's better than anyone that the Devils got for Hall

Maybe they don't take Komarov for that price but I'm not entirely sure a package for Pageau is going to be too much more than that if Hall is worth a top-3-protected first and a bunch of spare parts.

💯. Last I checked Aho is Bridgeport’s top scorer and is chomping at the bit he just can’t break this line up. He would jump right into the nhl with their defense. I’m still shaking my head over that deal and wondering why we didn’t get Hall? Pay to be a fly in the room and know what went on.

Palmeri would be great. Local guy he’s from the island. With that said I know I read somewhere he wanted to stay with the devils and wanted to be a long term part of their plans. Not sure if that’ll have an effect on whether they’ll trade him or not?

He would be a good fit. Really like to fill that third line center spot though. Sick of seeing this crap up in the top 6. It’ll catch up with us eventually.
