he would be one of the only pure wingers. Hes got size and can score. So yeah def makes it for Canada. He started the WC on the top line of USA. His play in the tourny is irrelevant to whether he would have gotten picked or not.

On what planet does Bgustad get u Carter or Pacs??
30 to 40 goal scorers on such a cheap contract are really hard to come by in today's NHL. And you think Bgusjtad can commend a proven goal scorer?? Really? At this point hes just a third liner. But I guess LA would be dumb enough to flip a proven 2nd line C for a third line C with mediocre production.

Allow me to retort
I like Bjugstad...as a 3rd line center. Not at the cost of a highly versatile Carter (literally plays any position and any situation, and quite good at every aspect).

tbh, any trade involving pacs or carter would have to include Huberdeau not Bjugstad.
Did you miss Matheson? Not saying that'd get a deal done, but it wasn't just Bjugs. However as a fan, I wouldn't be happy to give both guys for either of those two wingers. Matheson has shown a lot of promise and Bjugstad is still young. And on a great contract. I think he'll have a strong year.
No, it doesn't. Wouldn't make sense to make such a deal, imo. There's not that huge a jump in points.

It actually makes perfect sense for Florida and absolutely no sense for Montreal and LA. All three teams, including ur cats, wanna win, they are in win now and acquiring either of those players would give the cats a huge boost. Premiere scoring forwards like pacs dont grow on tress and extremely efficient players like Carter on great contracts are almost impossible to find in today's NHL cap.
They could still be in a win now mode by keeping Bjugstad and Matheson. And simultaneously keeping an eye on the future.

I mean sure, the panthers are loaded with talent, but at the same time they have to sign those players. Pacs and Carter provide great value for their contracts. The cats will have the same situation as the bolts. The cap will force their hands.

Radulov hasn't played a single game in a Habs sweater and we're trading a captain, leading scorer, and cap friendly winger for a 3 years passed his prime 2C?!?!?
No thanks.
Ya, you pretty much did. Implying Florida shouldn't trade Bjugstad in a trade thread where he goes to another team for Pacioretty.

Sign who? The only notable free agents we have coming up are Jagr, Petrovic and Pysyk. We just gave out numerous 5-8 year deals to lock up the core and we have the 3rd most cap room ($10 million) and possibly more if/when we send Kindl and Berra to the AHL.
If Carter can be had for picks and prospects than I'd love to have him but it'd probably start with roster players I'm not willing to give up. Who do you suppose we trade to acquire Patches or Carter?
