Confirmed with Link: Dadonov (50% retained) to Stars in exchange for Gurianov

Probably using internet explorer.

Not since 2003!

Not sure what you mean by that. We gain some cap space by swaping Dadonov with Gurianov.

Yeah, a pick would have been cool, but that's the thing. Nobody was likely to give up a pick for him unless we retained 50% (or more with a 3rd team involved thus reducing the return further more) and/or taking on a contract.

The end result, cap space wise, is really basically the same as it would have been otherwise. The only difference is we get a reclamation project with a low chance of turning things around instead of a late-draft pick that has even less chances of becoming something.

we lose 400k and a retention spot

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

Wont get qualified, will go back to Russia, we lose cap space power.

Ylonen has almost the same number of points in 18 games.

Gurianov Poolparty Kravstov, all the same combat

A pick wouldve been better.

Well see!

He will be signed. He's young and he's done well prior to this season.

For some reason I don't see it. Might be hidden for some reason. Mods feel free to delete.

I would have been really happy with a 4th or 5th for Dadonov. I would have been happy still with a 6th or 7th.

I thought we'd more realistically get a bad contract back. I didn't think we'd be able to get a so called bad contract like Gurianov back. Hopefully MSL can find something in him. I think the final 20 games of the season is too small of a sample size though as far as production will be concerned. Whether we retain him may have to be based on seeing how he plays more than the points, imo.

I think we have to retain him and give him a fresh start next season. There's too much potential there to just throw away.

 

[Canadienna]

The only thing I really know about him is he was a big part of their Cup Finals run.

Who knows if he's a long term piece but I'm intrigued by his tools.

No risk for a reclamatiom project

Its at a time to that there is no risk to blocking development paths either. Mtl winger prospects likely need AHL. Its a player with some upside, that can fill a roster spot much like many have done this year.

I don't think I ignore anyone but thanks everyone for responding, at least I'm not going crazy lol

Once Curvy Duck is back from his mysterious LBI him and Gurionov could form a good line. Both have size, Duck is a great playmaker, Gurionov has a wicked shot. Both have size.

Both have size.

 

[PavelBrendl]

I like the trade a lot. Was a fan of Gurianov in his draft year. Dadonov is infuriating to watch, presented negative value most nights. Gurianov could have untapped potential. No-risk, possible reward trade. Big W.

Now, can Hugo get off its collective keister and get someone who can police the game when needed, so that a 22 year old rookie doesn't have to be it each and every game and then have surgeries? That would be great. Thank you.

It may come down to cap space.

 

[Whitesnake]

At this point though, you have NO CHOICE but to give Gurianov to Suzuki. Everything else is moot and irrelevant if you want to assess a guy's play.

How about Drouin as his center? I can just feel it... there is a great potential.

 

[Nedved]

Finally. I finally login to hf and see a trade for us. thank goodness!!

That's an interesting take because Anderson, RHP and Suzuki are doing well.

I just don't want RHP and Anderson broken up. I would keep them with Suzuki, but I'm fine with having them play with Dvo or Dach to see what Gurianov can do with Suzuki.

 

[Guy Larose]

Gurianov with the hat trick on Tuesday just to piss off the tankers

 

[Nedved]

This trade feels like the Iginla for Nieuwendyk trade. Excellent job!!

Bro, are you okay? Lol.

 

[Jaynki]

Man, its not a huge win or a huge loss for any team.

Dadonov is better than Gurianov.

There were no 3rd pick out there for Dadonov.

Our management team would rather gamble on Gurianov than a 4th pick kower.

Safe, no-risk bet. There is a potential reward but i would not get my hopes too high

 

[eklund the clown]

How about try and get rid of Drouin next.Even if we have to retain and add a pick.I cannot watch Drouin any longer

 

[Skip Bayless]

How?

 

[Kimota]

I hope he's not making us better, that's all I care.
