with the Elias Lindholm trade completed i feel the urge to re-hash the conversation around how some users on these boards felt Tony DeAngelo was a more valuable asset than Elias Lindholm, brb digging up receipts

Speculation: - Roster Building Thread: Part L

Does anyone think it's a possibility this team trades Mika in the next 2 years for a young potential 1C? I wouldn't do it but you have to think it's a possibility, especially if Mika is looking at 10 million plus a season. Not this offseason, but possibly next offseason. Definitely possible...

Lindholm and possibly Tanev to Vancouver and the only roster piece going the other way is Kuzmenko? Vancouver becomes a pretty serious team. Lindholm’s production hasn’t been anything special since Calgary kind of imploded and all their stars bounced, but he is still a highly talented player who has an exceptionally strong defensive game and is great on faceoffs. And Vancouver has a lot of Swedes. Can definitely see him fitting really well.

You say his stats aren't that special and yet he'd instantly be our #5 scorer on our team. Nothing special, yes, but no slouch either.

The Flames want a first round pick for Tanev. Vancouver tried to get both Lindholm and Tanev. It was too expensive. Calgary probably wants a boatload for Hanifan.

Hanifin will most likely cost Miller or Lindgren and a pick. Prefer to trade Lindgren but I'm open to either if we can extend Hanifin. I'm over Miller's lazy and soft play.

I love Lindholm - I was more alluding to his stats not being anything “special” compared to when he scored 40 goals and 80+ points a couple years ago. I still think he’s probably a low end 1C for some teams (I think he’s a bit checked out in CGY and will produce a lot more in VAN) and an elite two-way 2C and sort of ideal for a contending team. Would have been Colorado’s perfect add behind MacKinnon. Anyway, wasn’t putting Lindholm down, just noting his stats were down this year, particularly goal scoring.

They can want a 1st but I don't think they'll get one.

Lots of GM's set a high price and then come down once its crunch time. He's a good player despite his lack of offense (he does ace transition so thats a good thing) and the fact that he's almost always dinged up. Maybe a 2nd that turns into a 1st depending on team success but I doubt he gets a 1st outright. Remember when Gorton wanted a 1st for Grabner? He returned a 2nd and a b prospect. That would be a fair return for Tanev (before getting to potential salary retention, obviously that would change things.)

They'll get a 1st+ for Hanafin though.

Tanev will go for whatever Manson got traded to Colorado for. 2nd and a decent prospect.

Sucks cause I like Hanifin. Not sure I wanna give up a first and good prospect when there is a chance we colud sign him as a UFA (depending on a few factors of course).
 
Giving my TV some time off to cool down and let the electrodes rebalance, anyone know how the women game is going
 
"it looks like the Rangers may have some significant interest in acquiring the territory of Alaska from Russia, keep an eye on that, many parties involved including the USA."
