Speculation: Kakko

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

This is something I could see.
Rs should not move KK b'c eye test confirms he is very good 5x5, excellent def., proven by 2 versions of kid line; mo upside when he has good linemates.

That said, Jersey enjoying surplus D has Nemec in the A.
Rs are thin on backline.
Swap of former 2OAs

Good first stab, what would you want on a larger deal including rights to Silayev?
Nemec + Silayev
for
KK + __________

No thanks to moving Silayev

 

[elmaco]

KK should get first line minutes in his new hypothetical destination. I think he's due to atleast a semi-breakout if given consistent opportunity.

 

[FedorTyutin]

Haven't read all so sorry if this is already written but for me it screams MON's interest towards Kakko.
- 2018 draftee;
- Reclamation project;
- Habs need better defense, Kakko defends well.
- Habs need goalscoring... Huhhh... Well, he was drafted for this 1000 yrs ago but ya know, has a good shot and all;
- Gorton connection.

What we give tho? Either Dach+, Newhook+, Mailloux+, Mešar+ (I know NOBODY WANT TO TOUCH THOSE bur value isn't that high, not giving rental pieces here... So maybe?

 

[Artemi Panarin]

He'll probably land somewhere nobody expects. Like Dallas or St. Louis or something.

Or Seattle.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Think he ends up in Seattle

Genius

Give me a insider tag

 

[hamzarocks]

He isnt likely to get any better opportunities in Seattle then in NYR.

Tolvonen got dealt from the preds and hasnt become anything of significance either.

Seattle has a lot of good forwards so Kakko will need to compete to get a top 6 role at least this year. Things could open up for him next season

You win

you know better than that x 2
we want futures and have to be sufficiently high quality to merit consideration
I like Vats, but not for younger guy w/upside



no, need mo/better



well at least yr honest


While we all make mistakes I would not go remotely this far about @Machinehead
I know one arguably actually biased, but I won't say.

back on pt, IMO @Machinehead is just wrong on this particular evaluation



Way to the hell no
and soon as those idiots listen to me and jettison Vesey, Rempe returns!



no, although we could ask Quick who signed here b'c he wants to be here to take one for the team and let us rental him out as expiring
In such instance, would want to promote Garand, no desire for Forsberg, you flip him.

The Rs-Sens deal is
Fox + earlier down the road 2nd [our next is coupla yrs away]
for
Kleven, Pinto + Grieg + later down the road 1st [like 2029-ish]

As spot on in player evaluation as ever.

Are you hearing Borgen, maybe a couple of picks involved?

More reliable than most insiders

According my sources at the pike place fish market that’s what’s being discussed

Yeah enjoy a good laugh b'c my fuggin GM is brain dead
KK will continue a solid career, and this deal will be a waste
AND I WILL HAVE THE LAST LAUGH IN DRURY'S FACE FOR IT
