But Sam Reinhart is a 20 goal 50 point winger. Dmen are worth way more.

How much are good defensemen worth...?

Hahaha why the hell would they be doing that?

It's more likely Bishop, a prospect and a 1st
- 3rd GM's the charm

Hintz is a solid 2C with 2 years left at a solid cap number. Robertson was a Calder finalist. If you make a deal for Eichel it’s with those two in mind to keep as complimentary pieces.

Seguin’s name has been out in the rumour mills previously.

Seguin has a NMC though that would prohibit any deal.

Just a speculative thought.

Don't think you would get both Robertson and Roope, but Robertson would be nice.

I honestly know nothing of Robertson.

If Dallas has the mindset in bold then there's no point even talking about them as a trade partner.

I'm fatigued from every response to even the most reasonable deals to be that's too much for Eichel or so and so player is untouchable. It's total bullpoop.

More than Reinhart i'd say. Chiarelli isn't the GM there. Reinhart is a good player and would be a nice star to get a good dman, but Columbus wouldn't be the ones adding in any deal involving the two. Centers and Dmen are worth way more. I know Reinhart can play some center too, but he's primarily been a winger hasn't he?

Seth Jones has been a good defenseman the past 2 seasons? 🤔

What you said earlier Pach's about waiting on Vegas was very much not out of the realm. And if those teams see that, could help in dealing with them and getting better offers.

Go West young Jack.

Sam Reinhart is a 20 goal 50 point winger?

Seguin is 29 and had hip surgery last season. Would you actually want him in the deal?
- GPHawksfan

No I don’t want him.

Just speculating on what Dallas may be offering.

Seguin’s NMC would probably get in the way anyways

Jack Eichel didn't exactly set the world on fire this season either and most of you want the moon for him. I guess that only goes one way

Yes. Average over the last four years backs it up even with shortened seasons

No I don’t want him.

A GM would need to be both drunk and high to think a good return for Eichel is Seguin.

If Dallas called and offered that, I'd hang up while laughing mightily.

Go West young Jack.
- Michael Pachla

Pretty positive that's where he's going, unless the Rangers or Carolina really come in with big offers.

Rags need to offer up Lafreniere +++ if they want him.

Agreed. Make it hurt if it is any of Boston, the Rangers, Florida, or Carolina, and if they don't want to pay up, they can all have a nice day.

Right!? Too many teams out west right now in the running

Yep, any team in the East better be ready to pony up.

Already good
Young big

I have a difficult time believing the fans are falling for that anymore after a decade of incompetence.

There will always be a contigent of fans who are willing to watch losing hockey as long as they're seeing an honest effort and some passion.

Hell, I'm one of em. I can tolerate sucking as long as they're not boring and bad and soft. If we're going to suck, give me a Steve Ott and a John Scott not Linus Omark

Sure, but 12K fans, if they suck again? I highly doubt that.
