Friedman: Owen Tippett Available

[RainyCityHockey]

not too familiar with him. What’s his game?

Former #7 overeall pick by the Canes(under Francis), but hasn't really found a place in Seattle.

LHD(doesn't rally play the left side much for us with Giordano, Oleksiak and Dunn around, which doesn't help him) that looked good two seasons ago in Carolina and also in Anaheim after being traded there at last years TDL.

Got some offensive game to him as well(even though he doesn't use his solid shot enough, but FLA seems to be able to do that for players as even Wennberg scored goals) and is a tall(6'3) solid skating defensmen.
Though, he could be a bit more physical with all the tools he has.

possibly, but I think they’re looking for someone with a more physical reputation, but I really don’t know with Zito lol. I didn’t see us getting Montour, didn’t see him getting re-signed either.

Tippett for Jost.

Both players drafted 10th and had stellar Junior careers. I really liked Tippett in 2017.

Jost had the better NHL career and being a C more difficult position, but doesn’t fit the AVs game. Tippett with the deep forwards could provide an opportunity and might be the better fit.

Valimaki for Tippett?

Valimaki can be another Bennett for you on defense. Sutter just prefer bigger guys that’s why he is not playing

I’d be very interested in this as a panthers fan.

Lundell Tippet Montour 1st 2nd for Chychrun Crouse

Lundell is untouchable

Lundell alone has more value than Chychrun

Depending on how the Habs' scouting staff values Tippett, you might not need a 1st to be in Chiarot's sweepstakes. If they feel he has a good chance developing into a top-6 forward, Tippett for Chiarot is a perfectly reasonable starting point in negotiations. It's not like the Habs are fixated on a 1st round pick and will refuse a good young player.

Reasonable, thank you.

Okhotyuk, yes the rest of those names no.

Not sure if you are for trading Okhotyuk...If so why he is one of our few physical defenseman prospects and is a good prospect ...

 

[Johno]

Dont need more RHD dmen or offensive minded. We have 4 RHD in our top 5 already.

Ideally a top 4 LD, but we don't think The Cats(realistically) have what it will take to get that, or at least nothing they are willing to part with(see Lundell, Anton)

More realistically, a 4-5 LD with a physical presence that isn't a just a pylon, a Soucy, or Larsson(Arizona), or maybe a Dillon type.

How about Esa Lindell
A good, strong Finnish boy, capable #2, a strong #3D.

He's a bit pricey for what he brings no? Almost 6 mil for a few years

Team can't be taking on that much cap for that long

Too much term, even if The Stars retained, with the Huby extension incoming, we just cannot take on that length, imo.

If it wasn't for the contract having 3 more years attached, and if Dallas retained, he would definitely be a possibility, but if I had wheels I'd be a bike, so.

Chychrun

Ah, the Panthers pipedream.

Zito’s reply

Cheeky

If your gonna shoot for the moon, then empty BOTH barrels!!! I admire your moxie, sir.....but no.

 

[Mase]

Ah, the Panthers pipedream.

Agreed.

The Cats just don't have the pieces(that they are willing to part with), and I don't blame The Yotes for not budging on they're demands.

They will just have to wait until Chyc becomes a FA and see if he wants to come home and play.

They owe us anyway this seems like a win win

 

[Mase]

Depends on how Zito feels about him and his game. Could be something there. He's from Tampere, so I'm sure Barkov and Kekalainen know him very well

 

[bsu]

I'll give you Sam Steel and Mahura or Guhle.

 

[zodiacbiller]

Tippett's a legit player who is available because Florida can win the Stanley Cup right now. First few replies ITT are all thinking Hodgson/Kassian type movie, but this is more of giving up Brad Boyes to get Owen Nolan.

 

[Gentle Man]

Zadorov or Valimaki? Maybe?

Weegar Ekblad
Forsling Gudas
Zadorov/Valimaki - Montour

I think I can jam with that
