it's just a starting offer, you'd work your way up to adding in a Gaudette or OJ.

We're trading Gaudette?

If we can buy low then yes. He's physical, and has a bomb of a shot from the point. And Minny plays a defensive style so he's learned to play both ends and likely has more offensive upside than he's shown in that system.
- Nucker101

I'd just be worried the cost will outweigh the benefit given our right side is pretty decent right now.

I like to call it Quality for quantity
- Nighthawk

This NHL draft would be a great one to go for Quality and not quantity.

I was simply trying to be nice. When a millennial is crying and hysterical it means they want a handout. I offered cash and he was still upset? Should I have led with a free education? I’m trying man, I really am.

We're trading Gaudette?
- LordHumungous

If we can get Dumba and make the cap work, yes. Gaudette is more of a middle 6 forward, Dumba is a legit top 4 dman with 20 goal upside. I like Gaudette, but Dumba is only 2 years older and an established core piece.


To be clear, I wouldn't trade Gaudette unless it's for a clear upgrade that fits in with this core's age group.

Dumba retain 1/2 for Stetcher/Tryamkin/Lockwood/Palmu

Dump contracts & prospects that no room for. Keep the best prospects & picks.

I’d be willing to throw in the vcr in my attic and a few other pieces of garbage in this amazing deal where we get an all-star somehow.

He's not going to come cheap, plus he makes $6,000,000, which is another challenge.

I do like him however, and he'd certainly upgrade our D and only 25.

I'm enjoying 11 hrs of streamed 7s Rugby from NZ. Can. Women leading Ireland 19-7 with 2 mins to go.

What about Eric Staal?

Gaudette plus Utunen for Eric Staal?

Too old. Why give up Gaudettes whole career for maybe 2 years of a 2nd line player

No thanks. I like Staal but Gaudette for a vet is not something I'd do.

Dumba for Boeser is literally Larson for Hall. My god Jkuzzi lay off the salts

Whether Gaudette would be made available to get a player like Dumba of not, that's the kind of price it would be. Guerin would be getting lot's of calls. Leading up to the TDL the price will be inflated yet again.

Do you really think we have a team that can go all the way this year or next? Patience man, the team is very young.

I think Dumba could take off playing with better talent. Plus I love that he's not soft and his learned to play defense in that system.

Man the kid is really heating up. Plus he is big and has some grit. Probably never make it but it’s great to see the production coming around
- CanuckDon

Need C depth in the organization for call up or Utica. Too many vets no help for Utica.

Sadly I’m not anymore. A young lady got her hooks into me.

My condolences to her, but congrats!

A starting point offer
- Nucker101

Yes. No need to trade unless like you say we win.
