Savoie or Ritchie. For a goalie (Colorado) and a blueliner (Edmonton).

Nashville also is 0-2 and fully in win-now mode

Will be interesting to compare them throughout their careers
Definitely. I was really disappointed that the Sharks didn't get Bedard last year. I feel like Celebrini is/has been slept on as an elite talent. I think there's a real possibility that he ends up the better of the two, but I wouldn't necessarily bank on it either.

Be traded:

Rantanen to an unclear team because can't be debated until what another team offers for this world class Finns or I think the trade Larkin to Montreal and Slafkovsky and a defenseman to Detroit.

Larkin is almost thirty with less upside than slaf. In the back half of last season slaf already out produced him. Why would we trade to get eight years older and then also add for the privilege for a guy who has 3-4 years before a decline from a fairly average peak?

Slafkovsky's peaking is coming now why not in Detroit why not Slafkovsky in Detroit?

Utah added Sergachev so I doubt it's them. I think he goes to Nashville or one of the Florida teams

I think you are spot on for those teams. FLA‘s defense has taken a hit losing Montour and OEL last year. I think they ll see if Boqvist becomes a new Forsling but if not I d see them add Anderson sooner rather than later. Big issue is lack of draft capital though. TBL same thing, regarding draft capital and weak RHD. NSH has the advantage of having cap space and draft capital right now

I would rather have Holloway than Jeff Skinner. Holloway has actually looked good on Draisaitls wing. This isn't a prime Skinner, his best years are behind him and there's a reason why Buffalo bought him out.
Even prime Skinner was abysmal defensively. I thought it was laughable Oilers fans selling me on depth scoring being their #1 need. The Oilers 2-3 Phillip Denault type players and less Jeff Skinners.

Both Florida teams have the draft capitol and prospects to be able to land him, they just don't have the ability to outbid a team like Nashville if the Preds so choose

Whatever it is, it'll involve the Canucks. Allvin doesn't like to sit still.
you mean jim rutherford.:sarcasm:

It would be a good fit. Nothing that Andersson is UFA after next season, what would it take?
a 1st to start and ONE of lekermakki/wallinder. but those two should be off the table in terms of prospects enough dealing them need them to contribute on elcs.

I've wondered if hoglander would be a substitution for one of those guys
