Retaining on Gudas doesn't matter.

I'm not an #AuthenticFan. I've skipped out on watching games this year in favor of watching Chinese dramas. And I don't regret it since I read the frustrations on the GDT for those games.Doesnt sound like you're a true fan.
Yup...if you can trade Ghost for 1.5 years of a #2C when you have Frost and Patrick kicking around and just paid 7 million to Hayes, you do it.
Dallas should trade Klingberg for Getzlaf. After all, Kling only has 8 ES points this year and Heiskanen can replace his PP points. Seems like a logical take.Also not a true fan. Frost needs like 4 more years if AHL development. Stop promoting your favorites instead of promoting the team.
So trade a 26 year old defensemen who has scored over 50 points and is locked up on a cheap contract for three more years, for a 34 year old with one more year on his contract, whose point production is falling off a drastic cliff (73,61,48,33).Getzlaf would be awesome. The salary is the problem. If Anaheim is willing to do Ghost plus the necessary salary retention it’s a no-brainer IMO.
Unfortunately, it comes from Eklund which means there’s no shot of it happening.
He asked, I answered.
You can context any trade to death and take a position.
You want context? Ghost hasn't provided good hockey for awhile. Skip the argument why...we know it. And currently the new coach isn't using him to his potential either...that is context. Argue all you want if you agree w/ AV or not, but his current role isn't moving any needles
Now more context for you. A player like Eller moves the envelope for his team when he is NOT on the ice w the best players
Ghost has shown he compliments the team when he's on the ice w/ the best players, and doesn't really push much of an envelope when he's not
IMO I know what position I deem more important in a playoff run. I'll take the more self sufficient player

Nah, I’m good.
Getzlaf is bald af
Woah, easy tiger, err, panther.
This has nothing to do with trade value, but Getzlaf is still effective. He's certainly declining, but not shot.

I don't want to trade for him either but his PPG average for those years
0.99
1.09
0.72
0.72
I mean you listed his 46 game total from this year as if it was his final point total. I mean come on man, you're better then that.
Funny you say Getzlaf’s production “is falling off a drastic cliff” when he’s registering 0.72 points per game, exactly the same as last season, yet you don’t cite it as an issue with Ghost who has gone from 0.83 to 0.47 to 0.30.So trade a 26 year old defensemen who has scored over 50 points and is locked up on a cheap contract for three more years, for a 34 year old with one more year on his contract, whose point production is falling off a drastic cliff (73,61,48,33).

Hey he got Ryan White too.A first, second and fourth for Martin Hanzal.
Someone should remind Fletcher.

You would have that for a year and a half.Funny you say Getzlaf’s production “is falling off a drastic cliff” when he’s registering 0.72 points per game, exactly the same as last season, yet you don’t cite it as an issue with Ghost who has gone from 0.83 to 0.47 to 0.30.
And Ghost’s contract is not a steal based on his play the last two seasons, which I have already shown by listing comparables.
Fact is, right now he’s a 3rd pairing defenseman, not on PP1, & not a PKer.
Getzlaf, meanwhile, remains one of the best 2-way centers in hockey. Having Couturier-Getzlaf-Hayes down the middle would be a game changer. They’d give teams fits, especially in AV’s system.
Lol you know, I honestly didn’t realize I did that. That’s my bad there.I don't want to trade for him either but his PPG average for those years
