Speculation: Roster Building/Rumor Thread XVII

[NYblades]

Am I the only one who would trade Kakko for Eichel? 2nd overall franchise center for a 2nd overall franchise (Hopefully) winger

Yes, you are.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

???
If Eichel is happening and Zib is on the move then Drury needs to call AZ about Dvorak. 1 for 1

Um...

I'd call Colorado and be like

"Sup? Kadri's an asshole right? We'll take him off your hands, but you got to send us Newhook too."

If we’re moving Mika I’d be calling Colorado for newhook

I find it quite curious that Goodrow, Gourde and Coleman were so instrumental in two cups that all three were jettisoned in one off season.

You guys are sooo important.....

C'ya.

Why would Colorado trade Newhook?

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Yes, you are.

O.k, in that case, can you explain your thought process, as to why you wouldn't trade a Kakko for an Eichel?

Eichel is more valuable, plays a more important position, and is scores ALOT more than Kappo does.

 

[bobbop]

We can argue about a potential package for Eichel all day long but what we can’t settle is an impossible salary cap vise.

Well, Tampa Bay has some issues with cap space.

2 were pending UFAs
1 was an expansion draft pick which other key players were exposed.

I won't tell anyone how to feel but I, as a NYR fan, feel very fortunate that Goodrow is joining the Rangers.

Trade like this won't be a 1 for 1. Is that what you mean by Kakko for Eichel?

Cup winning rosters cant afford to pay bottom6 wingers for 6 years 3.6M+

Yeah, I'm thinking Kakko and 15 for Eichel

I did not know having to be able to count is a requirement for the website.

Glad you're not the GM.

We let Boyle, Hagelin, and Prust go pretty quickly after some serious runs due to cap compliance. Welcome to the 'NEW" NHL. Parody over substance. F' the fans, F' smart management teams.

I was told there would be no math.

 

[haveandare]

Still too much. Just because the Sabres ask is 4 assets doesn't mean we need to comply. Buch Jones & a 1st is as much as I'd be willing to fork over.

Agreed. For me, Buch, Nike and the 1st is my absolute best offer. If you want more, good luck

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Is this Kevyn Adams?

 

[TheBPA]

Just do it

Which is why you grow those types of players in-house, if you can, instead of having to buy them (like us). You spend your money on money players and develop the supporting players from within. As I said earlier, Tampa will just regrow their 3rd-line appendage that they just amputated.

 

[KevinFinnerty]

Glad you're not the GM.

Again, I ask people to explain why they are so against trading Kakko for Eichel. Eichel is the more valuable player, scores more, plays the more important position. So what's the issue here? Because of Kakko's potential as a top 6 winger? How about Eichel's 100 point potential playing with Artemi?

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Oh, FFS

$10M cap hit & a bad neck is my final answer.

the problem is they have guys upfront who they aren't able to move.

And by that, I mean Stamkos.
