Hoglander has way more history of producing so likely him. Robertson is probably way cheaper but he might not even be an NHL calibre guyWho would be better? Hoglander or Robertson?

The way Hoglander is producing this year maybe he isn't either.Hoglander has way more history of producing so likely him. Robertson is probably way cheaper but he might not even be an NHL calibre guy
I posted similar on the main board, if they had a late 2nd I’d say Grzelcyk, O’Connor and a 2nd for Hague seems reasonable.

People slating him with Sid has to be considering a likewise take or hopeful for it to take place.Who is comparing Hoglander to Hagel?
That seems...odd.
Hextall > Dubas confirmed.Granlund = 30 points
Crosby = 27 points
I don't know what people think Hoglander is or if they feel he has a Hagel (6'2" 180 lbs) like trajectory, but Hoglander is 5'9" 185 lbs. and doesn't play on the top lines or the PP or have that top pedigree minutes Hagel gets 18:00 to 21:00 at Hoglander's 12:00 to 13:00's.
I guess when you prop him up on Sid's wing will do that, you think he'll have those same results as Hagel. Not everyone can be considered a Hagel. I don't think it's a wise case to pay assets for a 3.0 bottom sixer. He's not opening space and making others better considering he had a high shooting percentage and only 12 assists.
He's on pace for 6/7 goals and 9/10 assists with a 7.4 shooting percentage.
That becomes a negative asset at 3.0 and not quite the same as taking a chance on a guy Like Tomasino at like .875 RFA. You are overpaying a guy who's not shown he can do that one outlier year consistently. That's taking a huge gamble and a costly one at that.
We can prolly wait and pick him up off waivers in a week or so.Robertson is having a brutal season with the leafs so far and was scratched last night. Dont know if the Leafs would deal with Dubas but I wouldnt mind throwing a 4th for him
This team has to continue to take some level of gamble. Whether it's on a player playing or in the draft. The best way is buying low on a player.
Dylan Strome got tossed around he league and the caps took a gamble and now he is well over a ppg at 5mill for them.
3mill is like nothing for a bottom 6 player anymore. Hoglander has been a consistent 10g+ 30pt player his career which cost 3mill anyways.
Just do anything to get Rakell off LW. I do not think he is nearly as effective there and Sid needs someone under 30 to play with.
Rakell has like 6 in 6 since being out with Sid and Sid and Rust are also producing.

We traded the wrong one!Granlund = 30 points
Crosby = 27 points
I mean, sticking him with Sid to see what happens isn't the worst idea ever, at least to start. It would be in everyone's best interest (if we acquired him) if he broke out. So putting him in the best position possible to start off his new tenure isn't the worst idea. Seems to have a style that would fit well with Sid too - fast forechecker. And clearly, he has a skill set that's capable of 20 goals at 5v5. The nice part is, if that clicks, you can build a darn good lineup:People slating him with Sid has to be considering a likewise take or hopeful for it to take place.
I just feel he's a terrible asset to pursue.
Carrier decided to take up the Trouba mantle after he was traded and elbowed him in the head after he scored his goal…I missed it, how did Tomasino get hurt?
