Glencross + Stempniak + Butler + 2nd for Subban!
It's close in value, but I don't know if I would want give up the 2nd overall (Reinhart/Ekblad) AND Glencross for Subban...

I never want to see subban anywhere near my team. The guy is as big of a loser as there is in the NHL. Only one of the biggest dbags ever would jump Kyle Turris, pound him, and then act like he's tough **** in his post game interview. He wouldn't even look at a guy like methot when he was roughing up his teammates. Completely lousy and spineless human being.
Tell us how you really feel
I'd take Subban in an instant.
They had the same type of production last year + Eller's all-around game is also really good, physically and defensively. Just there, they're pretty much equal. Then you add youth and you'll understand why I consider Eller's value to be >>> Glencross'sEller hasn't matched Glencross' production - not yet anyway. He was off to a good season last year, but let's see him do it for an entire year and afterwards. He's a good player, but I wouldn't say he has more value than Glencross. At best, their values are equal, but a case could be made for Glencross having more value given his all-around game (physicality, leadership, two-way style, etc.).
Why would we trade for Eller when we have an Eller clone in Backlund
Backlund has 62 points in 170 games for a ppg of .36
Eller has 77 points in 209 games for a ppg of .37
Now I know what your your going to say is that Eller broke out last season, well with Eller's PDO of 1032 versus Backlunds PDO of 964 means Eller is statistically "lucky" and Backlund is statistically "unlucky" last season which could explain a fair amount of Eller's .125 % more of productivity. Not to mention Eller had a higher offensive zone start and more ice time.
There is no way I trade Glencross for Eller when we have Backlund.
It's not about trading (and btw, it's a Flames fan who said it would take Eller or Eller+ to get Glencross), it's about value.
Good, now tell your fellow flames fans to stop asking for him.And I am saying that the Flames wouldn't value Eller as high as the Canadiens as we have Backlund already.
Unless we're moving out Stajan to get Eller, there's no point in getting him. And I'm aware Stajan won't land Eller.
The dream deal would be Glencross and Stajan for Eller and a top prospect. Can you imagine?
Tbh, if such a trade were to ever occur, I'd rather leave out Eller and trade for Collberg. I was mad we took Janko over him at 21 last year. Eller is a fine young player, I wouldn't complain at all if we landed him, but we are deepest at center in the pipe, Collberg would fill a bigger need at RW.
Good, now tell your fellow flames fans to stop asking for him.
Fans on a team-devoted forum overstating the trade value of depth players? Well, I've never seen this before.
