I give ya that Boss man. Not bad at putting up some points.

But I like my defenseman to play defense and the offense to put up the points. Or just at least our defenseman not to be horrible at defense. Thats it

He put up far less points than he allowed

OEL AND GArland to Vancouver.

GArland has good value OEL has negative.

Wonder what the trade is.

Sure you win Risto is god
- ImThatGuy

Never said that. And you know it. Risto got a first plus. Not only was it a first, but a mid-first.

68/68

So you do not like cale makar, Hughes or dahlin?

Ok

I like a few defenseman that play defense and a few that can move the puck and help produce some scoring.

I also like forwards who score, and forwards who play a defensive role.

Tampa Lightning for example

That’s not a great trade for us
Picks 8, 9 & 10 are close in rankings to who would get picked 3rd

Trade Jack to ANA or MIN for a bundle
Ship Sam to LA for 8oa ++
Or to VAN for 9oa ++

- Stripes77


Maybe?

Seems like a big drop off after 4OA.

an impact player for a guy on an expiring contract.
3OA.

Some picks moving too....

I really think sam gets a slightly better return than risto.
Kagm will be criticized after the sam trade.

Lots of 1-1 on kagm.

Well, there were other teams offering 1st round picks too and I am sure a prospect so I am sure that writer isn't much more of a hockey expert than John Vogl or Mike Harrington or some posters or this blogger. He just went to journalism school and has access to the dressing rooms and press box. I think Jermy White wanted to protect Borgen. Just because they are part of the media doesn't necessarily make them smart, see Buffalo sports media people.

Sam is a RFA though, so whatever team gets him will be able to negotiate his contract with him, unless he is hard pressed to go to UFA which I can't blame either

Sounds like vancouver wants to dump back salary to ARI with #9 as a sweetener.

Eriksson and Roussell are names i've read

Benning should have been our target for Reinhart, he is about to rival Fletcher with a bonehead trade with the Yotes
