GDT: 2024 NHL Trade Deadline

[Grigowski]

Playoff Eichel last year was a two way beast that should have won the Smythe.

I am looking forward to see this clash......

 

[the_fan]

So who’s playing 4C on the Avs?

 

[Avaholic29]

hahaha indeed

Are you an avs fan or? Can you point to me which dman is bad or a worry outside of Johnson? Only HF avs would find a way to be upset the team doesn’t look like an Olympic squad.

I am too. I want a Vegas/Avs series (just in the 2nd or 3rd round) as it should be a ton of fun!

Watching Mack deliver a reverse hit to Eichel would be amazing.

 

[BrickNHL]

I’m curious who which goalie they were going after

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

Jesus, EJ won't leave it alone. Just brought up the Avs again after they discussed the Vanecek and Kahoknen deal. He also hates the Bo for Mittelstadt deal. Says he wouldn't have given up Bo.

I would think that is Trenin's job to lose.

 

[Balthazar]

I don't think there are two or three teams better than us that's for sure.

I was clearly talking about depth

ie: how good is your #6, #7 and #8 going into the playoffs

It's important because you'll use them all.

Sounds like he's been posting in the Byram thread.

 

[Bender]

They're done. Not getting a goalie

I'm glad Justus has recovered from his 'almosttradeditis' when it was thought it was 'tradeditis'...

 

[hockeyfish]

If SJ could stop trading random goalie, that would be nice.

 

[Puckstop40]

The Knights have literally become the Empire.

The East is probably looking forward watching the two teams pummel one another into dust, and they'll come in afterwards as the clean up crew.

 

[Iceberg]

Toews - Makar
Girard - Manson
Johnson - Walker
Malinski - Jones

Yes that’s exactly what I’m saying hahahah. Argument can be made Vegas is the only team in the west with better and that’s only if you consider play styles.

We know Girard wont last four rounds of playoff hockey.

Like Vegas did last year.

I’ve heard he hasn’t played center in the NHL though

 

[Balthazar]

Like Vegas did last year.

Last year the East went crazy for deadline trades. This year it's the West.

Won't be surprised if the East win the cup.

Look, I wanted us to get a depth D-man, and don't understand why it didn't happen because usually they are always available and we had the capspace and assets to pull it off. CNap too focused on the goalie?

That said, unless we suffer catastrophic injuries, our D-corps is still among the best in the league. I'm not that worried. Goaltending is the bigger area of concern.

 

[AllAboutAvs]

Sending Annunen to the AHL and back up with the Avs was so the Eagles can use him in the event the Avs need to swap Annunen and Provy later on.

 

[Ararana]

Toews - Makar
Girard - Manson
Johnson - Walker
Malinski - Jones

I'm assuming Walker plays up with Manson if Girard goes down. Not terrible, but a bottom pairing of Johnson - Malinski/Jones would be nightmare fuel against Vegas.

 

[Avaholic29]

Maybe not, so insert Jones and Walker goes up.

You need to change your profile pic, it's making me sad

That's when coaching comes in. You put Lehky and Nuke in the same line, and get them out there whenever that pairing is out.
