Speculation: Kyper on Knies value that he’s hearing

[sd1976]

Kypreos said today he’s hearing that the offers for Knies are centered around the following:

Top pairing dman
1st Rounder
Another player/prospect

Any idea what teams could match that?

 

[rumrokh]

Absurd. I love Knies as a player, but what team has a top-pairing defenseman to spare for him?

 

[JD86]

I'm sure every team in the league is lining up to trade a top pairing defenseman for a winger.

 

[Aashir]

This basically means we aren’t trading him barring a ridiculous overpayment

 

[vokiel]

 

[OneSharpMarble]

On the leafs Matheson would be a top pairing dman.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

So that's a no.

Depends on how old the D is tbh.

 

[Galaxydoggystyle]

Confirmed Matheson a 1st and Z

 

[Breakers]

Its been 7 years since computer boy was employed in the league.

wonder if he knows who are top pairing d-men

 

[sd1976]

Here’s my thoughts on it

What about something like this

Dobson
Zharovsky
1st

Or

Harley
Bourque
1st

For

Knies
Robertson

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Confirmed Matheson a 1st and Z

They're not getting Z if we are addiing a Top Paiing D

 

[Mrfenn92]

Can’t see Knies returning a top pair dman in any fashion

 

[Bottle Rocket]

So you mean like top pairing Kevin Bahl in Calgary, the 1st they got from Vegas and say Samuel Honzek?

 

[domiwroze]

Matheson Dach and 1st, quick, sign here where the Xs are

 

[Jannik Hansen]

Here’s my thoughts on it

What about something like this

Dobson
Zharovsky
1st

Or

Harley
Bourque
1st

For

Knies
Robertson

Are you on crack?

 

[AKL]

If you squint really hard, Spurgeon is a top pairing defenseman

 

[Hodge]

Hamilton, Mercer and the 12th overall pick?

 

[Galaxydoggystyle]

Here’s my thoughts on it

Dobson
Zharovsky
1st

Or

Harley
Bourque
1st

LMFAO Dobson!?!?!? and we still add a 1st and Z!?!?! the hell are we getting back mcdavid?

 

[TheBeard]

Technically Orlov is a top pairing d-man as in he plays on the top pairing for San Jose.

Orlov
27 OA
The negotiating rights for Reaves?

 

[TheBeard]

LMFAO Dobson!?!?!? and we still add a 1st and Z!?!?! the hell are we getting back mcdavid?

Dobson sucks

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Matheson
1st
Dach

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

So basically he’s not being traded.. I don’t see any team giving up that

Top pairing dmen don’t grow on trees and everyone wants them

People are gonna try to convince they have a top pairing dman to trade but realistically they are a top 4.. not a top 2

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Dobson sucks

Creative way to say you obviously havent watched him in 2 words.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

NJ in Nemec.

maybe

Nemec + Mercer + 12th overall
