Still 2 inch short but pretty much
- Fredo

I'm sure you hear that a lot.

No way in hell they should do that

Even if I think there is overhype on Romanov, I still keep him, and the 2020 1st.

I don't think Mantha is anything more than what we see now. A good 20 goals 50 points player.

That trade is a sideways move at best.

Agree 100%.

I'd do it. When was the last time we had a 6'5 natural scorer?
- Fredo

Pacioretty wasn't 6'5 but he was pretty much the same kind of player...

That's what your girlfriend tells you?

Oh yeah my girlfriend tells me everyday she wishes I was 6'4

I don't think it's a side move as Romanov is not showing he can generate much offense at the pro level in the KHL, can he make it as a strictly physical D in the NHL at 5'11 185 pounds?

At that 1st round pick with Timmins drafting..
- Fredo

That 1st round pick will be top 10, you keep it.

Really? You're willing to trade the 1st round pick because Timmins does the drafting?

Nowhere near as gritty as Mantha. But I still wouldn't do it.

He just wants to stir poop. He doesn't believe any of this.

Remember the "Fred Rules".

20 pounds lighter and whitout the grit. But if Pacio isn't named captain he's probably still here scoring his goals

That trade worked out just fine.

Were getting a legit 25 year old 1st line RW back, not Dale Weise people

Pacioretty also scored multiple 30 goal seasons. Mantha's best season is 25 goals.

Bergevin is alot better at trading than drafting so far.

20 pounds lighter and whiteout/without? the grit. But if Pacio isn't named captain he's probably still here scoring his goals

You also lose Lafrenière in the process.

They are both good players, the proposed trade was Mantha vs Romanov and a first

And this year's first...which will be top 10.

They would draft Drysdale and you would love it.

Of course, great prospect.

I'm sorry if I have lost faith in their amateur scouting departement but I have been hurt in the past, I don't know if I can ever trust again
