Even though His father is a human stain, I'd do Tkackuk one for one for either Farabee or TK. But the deal is not going to be one-for-one......

Rumour is he wants $8M......id rather Farabee for the $5m we signed him for.....But i do like Brady

I'm a huge Brady fan but I am happy with young Beezer. Aa much as I want tkachuk I also like the guys that we already have. MAYBE tk becomes expendable but that depends on my mood. Tkachuk isn't worth 8m though, imo

Not directed at MJL in particular bc there are worse characters to mention but sarcasm is often a struggle for this group of people to comprehend.

Because so many post stuff that we think HAS to be sarcastic, yet they are serious.

Exactly. Brady is better and more impactful but Farabee brings a lot. They would be the principals in a bigger trade. Obviously, those other pieces could make or break a deal.

agree. i think farabee is the better player overall. i would do tk for him though. may even add a pick, but no, no he is not an 8 mil dollar player. Or has not proven that yet.

I would do Konecny who is from Ottawa for Tkachuk in a heart beat. You get a big tough kid who plays center and will always be tough to play against. I would probably do Farabee too but iffy because I love the potential, speed, skill and the continued growth of Farabee could be off the charts. The Tkachuk's always bring a little snarl with them and potential locker room issues but you gotta love them.

I feel for Hayes.. what a rough year so far. I'm sure a Stanley cup victory will cheer him up though

Love Tkachuk, but I’m guessing his contract will have to be more than selke and I don’t know that I’d pay any winger more. Dmen or another outstanding center maybe.

Isn’t he more of a left winger than a center?

Tkachuk and Farabee are very different and I think that makes things complicated. I would take Tkuchuk today but what about 3-4 years from now?. Will they both be healthy? Brady initiates things and plays an edgy game so you could argue that makes him more susceptible to injury. How much does Brady want? What if he wants more than $8M? Would he sign for less with the Flyers? Rumors are that the focus is on the structure of the contract where Brady can mitigate high taxes. Lots of question marks.

I think LA would be a more suitable trade partner for the Sens with their young centers.

None. There are tons of rumors though...his brother was way too young to die like he did though. It's awful no matter what the reasoning but I don't think we will ever know the truth

There’s always a price. But yeah. He’s one of my borderline untouchables. Or by all means pay the ransom.
