There's an odd amount of interest for a $9.1M center who hasn't even been playing center lately and is amassing a whopping 55 point pace this season.
Proposal: NYI & CBJ

I'm good with that honestly. I don't want to rock our boat yet either.

You and our own Barzal hater "Throttle" would get along quite nicely, lets get you 2 a room.
You can be mad about it I guess, but I'm failing to see any scenario where a $9M center playing as a wing and only pacing 55 points is worth much of anything in a trade.
$9.1M for a guy that's having a rancid year and has only been PPG once in the last 6 seasons sounds more like cap dump value than anything.
i would be happy to trade Lindstrom who knows if he will ever play a game of hockey again.

Lindstrom would be on the table too but I doubt that would entice a move anymore than a prospect like Mateychuk. Just bad trading partners ATM.

Tell me you’ve never watched the isles without telling me you’ve never watched the isles lmao. luckily nhl gms actually have scouts and don’t base a player’s value off a hockey card
Because he’s not an idiot and can see the roster he’d be playing with on a team with a sharp upward trajectory? Plus three fellow BC boys including one of his closest friends (Fabbro).

I think for Pettersson and Miller it’s quantity for quality because they need to trade him. For Barzal you don’t need to so you need quality.

Mackenzie is a hack!
Right? Two people saying this in this thread, and literally have no clue.

Waffle House and Ohio State football. That’s about all there is to offer in that city. Well that and the Arnold Classic in March. Not quite the excitement of Elmont and Hempstead but it’s close.

Why do these threads always boil down to this shit. It's so tired.

"that chick from Ohio"
At this point I choose to be amused that they actually think Waffle House has a significant presence here. Reminds me of the Fun Old Days when people routinely mistook us as being in the South. "They're named after something Civil War related, right? So they must be Southern."
(For the record, Waffle House can be found if you look hard. You'll have a much easier time finding Tim Hortons all over the place, tho.)

I would probably put Mateychuk as untouchable. His growth allowed Jiricek to be moved. Can’t see Don moving him for anything outside of a top young defenseman in return.
