Rumor: 2024-2025 Trade Rumors and Free Agency Talk | Part Deux

[a mangy Meowth]

Convince them Michkov needs Val. Send Val for Owen one for one.

Can we somehow finagle this into just getting Michkov instead?

It's what's best for him, after all.

 

[MacKaRtin]

Dude's 26, entering his prime and is locked up long term at 6.2M and can play either wing.

Can not see Philly letting him go, but I would be all over that if he was able to be shook loose..

Remember when everyone was laughing at Flyers for "only" getting a conditional first, a third, and this middling prospect Owen Tippett for UFA Claude Giroux? Who's laughing now?

 

[RoyIsALegend]

How do you propose we acquire him?

I don’t know, pal. Not my job.

I just know he’d be a perfect fit for us.

Fair enough. I'm just an idea guy too.


@Richard88 can you get us Owen Tippett?

 

[hockeyfish]

Mitts and a 2nd obviously.

[ABasin]

I want Owen Tippett.

Shoot first, speed to burn. Size and physicality.

He’d cost a ton. 25-30 goal guy, $6M per.

Similar contract and production as Nichushkin, minus the blow and hookers.

He's a ginger though. That has to reduce his value

Never say minus to hookers. Rumors are rumors but a lot of players seem like to go massage "therapists" when they visit Montreal and its now always bad boys.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

He's nowhere close to Val production.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

I'd start with the classic Colton+Wood+2nd package just for the lulz.

Cost control, and term!!

I sincerely hope my argument with Henchman21 played no part in driving him away.

I'll admit it wasn't my finest moment. I generally have control of my emotions, but that conversation pushed my big red button. I felt at the time that his posts were intended at making me look stupid, rather than debating the facts. And that wasn't the first time I felt like that, so I didn't hold back.

...also not my finest moment was my "other" big Mittelstadt-related skirmish with you, Foppa. Sorry for crossing the line.

Very nice of you to say this Shadow, I really appreciate it. Not many have it in them to say something like this. Consider it water under the bridge.

I could see why you were getting frustrated in the other conversation too. Goal posts were being shifted and facts were being cherry picked to avoid acknolwedging the reality of Mitts struggles.

It may have been an aggressive conversation, but it shouldn't have driven anyone away. If you could admit your mistakes, others should be able to as well.

Eye test tells me Mittelstadt isn't good lol

First 15 games after the trade, first 15 games of this season

 

[lionsDen]

He started the season well, played well in the playoffs. I was oissed we traded Bo for him but he had played well. This whole board was mad he only signed a 3 year extension

So is Brady Tkachuk really a LW or is he just playing there because the Sens have Stuzle, Norris, and Pinto?

Asking for my friend Chris.

He doesn’t have the vision or skating to be a premier player up the middle.

He is much better on the wing where he can use his size in the corners and front of the net without the defensive responsibilities of a center. He is not good defensively at all.

I want him forechecking, not playing center
