Pouliot's a 3rd liner. lol. Is Fowler a 3rd pairing dman then? Pouliot is a quality second liner his production suggests nothing less.

I'll propose another three way in this thread that might be somewhat more palatable to Ducks fans...
Colorado - Cam Fowler
Toronto - Tyson Barrie
Anaheim - JVR
I would want a pretty decent addition as an Avs fan from Toronto, but if Barrie won't sign long term, he'll need to be dealt at some point within the next two or so years before his value plummets. I'm not particularly sure of what Toronto needs, I imagine they would rather have a more defense minded high end right handed defender, but at the same time, I could see Babcock really liking Barrie / I'm not too sure how picky teams can be with defense considering how valuable they seem to be.
Trading Pouliot (25% retained), G. Reinhart(traded 1st rnd 16th and 2nd rnd 33rd), and a first overall pick for Barrie is pretty steep.
Wouldn't doubt Chiarelli would do something like that.
But I wouldn't give up that much for Tyson Barrie. With the expansion draft coming up next year, you have to be 100% sure you want to expose those extra forwards for that 4th defenseman.
Tough decisions for Chairelli and Co.
He was 52 in the league last season p60 Do you even hockey? Which would of been 2nd on the Ducks .His P60 does not.

55 games is a very large sample size but keep trying to backtrack on a laughable comment. he was 19th for all wingers in the league being injured does not take away a very steady track record but carry on with your strawman and who are we comparing to 82 game guy you're just making up more bs to cover such a bad commentComparing a guy who played 55 games to players that played 82 are we? Do you even know how to use statistics?
Try comparing Pouliot when he was playing 3rd line minutes to when he's been given 2nd line minutes. His best P/60s in full seasons were when he played less minutes as a 3rd liner in MTL, BOS and TB. His number is inflated this year and last year because he didn't play the whole season. Sample size is important.

His P60 does not.
Here is how the posts went down lol where is this 82 game player you were referencing And as far as kid I am old enough to be your grandfather as I am already one there young man you got called out on a bad post get over it.Playing 55 games boasts a players P/60. And that's especially true for Pouliot this passed season because nearly all of his missed games were at the end of the season, when it's been well established that scoring drops as players start to slack off either because their team isn't playoff bound i.e. doesn't matter, or they are playoff bound and want to be 100% for the playoffs.
I haven't backtracked once. Pouliot is better suited on the 3rd line, has never had more then 36 pts (not 2nd line scoring numbers) and is overpaid. We don't want him. Get over it kid.
So Avs trade a great Dman for 2 high risk bad ones?!?!
You guys have realized Fowler isn't any good by now right?

EDM: T. Barrie

Go and look it up. I'm not doing all the work for you. Pouliot's best years in terms of P/60 were in 2010-11 (2.10), 2011-12 (2.08), and 2012-13 (2.51). He was playing for MTL, BOS and TB respectively in a 3rd liner role getting ~11 mins EV TOI. Note, his 2.51 year is inflated because he only played in 34 games. SAMPLE SIZE IS IMPORTANT!!! Every time he's been given 2nd line minutes i.e 13+ mins of EV TOI, his P/60 has been <2.
If you're struggling to understand this basic concept, forget P/60. His production is awful. The guy has never had more then 36 pts? How does that indicate in anyway that he's a top 6er? Fowler has a higher career high in pts then Pouliot as a D-man and it's not exactly like Pouliot is some sensational defensive talent to make up for his lack of production.
I love how you guys have been ranting and raving about how good he is and yet he's in every single proposal for a D-man I have seen on here. If he's so good, you keep him. We're not interested in helping EDM solve their D issues and by the looks of that Hall for Larsson trade, neither is anyone else.
What is funny is now you're going back 5 years give it up man quit embarrasing yourself it's quite obvious now his p60 are 2nd line none of your goalpost moving changes this. Never seen a poster try so hard to cover up a incorrect post so bad.And also funny you seem to count his orther lower pp60 yers even though those years he had injuries but his top production years don't count because injury.

His last 2 seasons he has been trending up with his best years so why you going back 5 years lol. Go Argue Sedins production and go back 10 years to make your case.
36 points = 2nd liner production. You heard it first ladies an gentlemen.
Cogliano > Pouliot. Cogs out produces Pouliot, is a better PKer and costs less. As a Ducks homer, Cogs = 3rd liner.

Oh come on, stop fighting, you're both pretty.
Seriously though. Benoit Pouliot has been producing as a 2nd line winger since we got him. mytduxfan, you can't really argue that at all. You are trying to and failing.
Now, where I do see the concern is with Pouliot's injury record of recent. He has missed too many games, we know that, its hurt us tremendously when he hasn't been healthy, and to put it bluntly, a guy who is on the IR has no value to the team. So I get that concern, as I think most Oilers fans would, including VainGretzky. But your claim that when healthy, Benoit Pouliot is not a 2nd line winger has been shown false.
Let me ask you this, when Crosby was injured with his concussion/neck issues, did that make him not a top line player? Of course not. It made him a top line player that had injury issues. Pouliot is no Crosby, but him being on the shelf doesn't make him less than a 2nd line player when healthy any more than Sid's issues made him less than the superstar that he is. It just makes him less palatable to have because recently he has been a 2nd liner while healthy (55 and 58 games respectively the last 2 seasons) and like all guys sitting in the press box, worthless for the games missed (27 and 24 games). If you want to argue injury history, by all means do so. But his production is that of a 2nd liner, and has been since we first gave him that opportunity.
