Value of: Landeskog to PHI

[The Abusement Park]

The ONLY thing that makes him more valuable is age. That's it.

And I always think it's funny that people intrinsically assume that being a captain adds value. Sorry, but Landeskog is a meathead, and a terrible captain. I think teams generally prefer captains who are composed, and don't take stupid penalties. The fact that he still has a C is incredibly sad.

How do you know he's an awful captain? Are you in the locker room with the team? From what I've seen he's a good leader on and off the ice, his "stupid penalties" are somewhat overblown and I don't think you can say he's a bad captain with much credibility. Also he's been captain for the national team, which means he's clearly doing something right.

@ 6.3 x 7 for MacKinnon the Avalanche would have to take back MacDonald (5 x 4) as part of the deal.
Consider cap hit when making proposals.

From everything we've heard he's a very good captain, but I'm glad that from the comfort your couch you feel confident enough to refute the opinions of those who are actually in the locker-room. Good stuff.

I think he holds pretty similar value to Simmonds.

Just talking value, not what I would do in a trade.



That's a little rich for my blood. Don't think the difference between Landy and Schenn is a cost controlled potential future top 4 RD, his skillset is too much to give.

Im a fan of the syle landy plays and there aren't alot like him around. There's a premium to that. Schenn is an excellent starting point but i think colorado would be seeking a prospect with serious potential in overpayment
