Speculation: Armchair GM Thread

[Scoresberg]

I figured this type of a thread would be in order since we've been talked about several times as being active in the trade market.

To get the conversation going: David Jiricek seems to be on the outs in Columbus. Hypotethically speaking, would you trade L'Heureux for him straight up?

Single word, no. Multiple words, not a chance in hell. ZLH is the exact type of player we need to be keeping and developing. He should round into a nasty middle six player who can play in all situations.

I'd probably move one of Wood, Svechkov, or Edstrom for him

I would too, but I don't think CBJ is looking for just prospects anymore. Not like ZLH is some seasoned veteran but he has some NHL games under his belt already and looks very promising early on.

L'Heureux no. There are a couple others i would. Pretty much any forward prospect not named L'Heureux, Svechkov, Surin, and maybe Edstrom.

I would definitely be interested in acquiring Jiricek.

Just... I mean, he's not cracking that Columbus lineup. And I love Fabbro for what he is, but it sounds like that was not exactly a tough team to crack on RD, all things considered? Maybe they are being overly harsh/conservative in bringing Jiricek along, I guess you have to watch the player play, and I have not done that at all. So I don't profess to know what's up there. But in general, just on draft pedigree and stats watching, I'd really be interested in Jiricek if he's on his way out in Columbus.

That said, no way in h-e-double-hockey-sticks for L'Heureux. We KNOW L'Heureux is a player. Maybe Jiricek will be, maybe not. We need to hold onto any sure bets we have coming.

I’d move carrier in Lauzon for him.
