Does "I'mThatGuy" have good sources? Are talks for Eichel really heating up?
- Cup Crazy '07


Lebrun tweeted that talks were heating up and getting serious and he could see Eichel being traded before the playoffs are over

Sam Reinhart is definitely the superior player.

On this page that is obvious but not sure what the rest of the league thinks.... I think we will find out this summer.

Gotcha! Didn't realize he was just repeating that. I'm of the opinion that he is still on the roster when the season starts. I just feel like there's too much crap going on with him to provide us with the appropriate return right now. Just me, though!

Sean Monahan career stats:
GP 591, G 204, AST 235, PTS 439, F/O WINNING % 50.2
Sam Reinhart career stats:
GP 454, G 134, AST 161, PTS 295, F/O WINNING % 38.8

Which Center has a higher trade value?

- DEDDIE


Reinhart

Sean is trending down, the 28pt in 50g season here hurt a lot. The fact of the matter is that Samson has been the better player for a couple years now and is younger than SM. It's kind of a no brainer my dude.

Since CBJ might not want the "malcontent" Eichel, would Rhino make a lot more sense going that way? And the Sabers need a goalie, so....
Rhino for Elvis + Bolts 1st or the block buster:
Rhino + Risto + a2nd for Seth Jones + Korpi I don't see Seth giving assurances that he would re-sign though.......Unless yawl hire his favorite coach! Torts!!

I think someone will pay a pretty penny for Monahan.

I think they are about on par in terms of value.

LeBrun mentioned LA. So maybe that's not as dead as the Kings insider claims

Value wise in a vacuum, I would still place my bet on Reinhart. Sam is an unproven center, but absolutely the superior player. Centers are inherently more valuable, so it's not a bad question as to who holds more league wide value.

But I am sure as poop that Sam Reinhart, while on the ice, is a more valuable addition than Sean Monahan.

Finally ponied up to evolving hockey. The GAR and WAR between the two is quite large.

Sill young.
Top line/2nd line center.
Has put up points in the past.
2 years left at reasonable cap hit.
Maybe the thinking Calgary is not good and he will prosper in their system.

Wouldn't mind reading a deep dive into Monahan, if he moved to a different team what that effect could have on him.

Monahan has value, no doubt. In terms of who should be valued higher, that is most certainly Samwise. Sucks to say too, he's going elsewhere real soon.

Have to imagine it drops. He plays with JG 5v5 and Lind/Tkachuk on the 1st PP unit. Unless he's placed alongside another elite winger and given the same amount of PP time (almost half his pts were on the PP last season), he's probably going to have a tough time.

You'd hope by acquiring a guy like him he can turn it around and you get an extra piece back that helps put you over the top. That being said, going from JG to Olofsson on his wing would be a big downgrade and something to likely slump him even further.

What if he's placed with more defensively responsible forwards. (frank), look at Risto with and without McCabe.

The team no longer wants to deal with Eichel's injury debate or him overall. He's gone and sooner rather than later.
