Don't you mean, ignore?
I'd trade anyone of them for the right player.
thank you for asking.
No I meant it as written, and it was correct.
My suggested instruction was DO NOT ignore, BECAUSE [implied] you are instead REJECTING!
Jt Miller has to score more than 1 goal in 41 playoff games before he can be considered a "core member"
I like the guy, but people complain about Stepan, Nash etc not performing in the playoffs? They've done 10X more than Miller has.
Stop pls w/playoffs where whole team was off.
eye test
Miller was drafted 15OA, would go higher if redrafted
That is a lot of value for a guy w/his talent
He is part of the solution, not the problem, get rid of AV and all the effin line changes and things will work out. Still some screw ups, but they are men, not machines. And again, there will be continued progress
Do not want to sell talent cheap if we can help it.
Bern man ... that is just ... insane LOL ... like that would be the wildest offseason ever.
Ya, that would be WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY outside the box.
And the d would need a lot more work to catch up
However, the rest of it is as advertised.
Would be huge net gain.
That's just this week. He'll have a bunch as the year goes on.. although Stepan is gone now so that takes away a lot of his proposals.
God dammit I just skimmed it and I wonder why I did. What the hell is that man? McDonagh, Nash and Skjei for Mackinnon and picks.. come on man.
YOU brought up Stepan
as long as you are doing so, why don't you acknowledge I was right about him all along, that he was always worth more to us in trade return than actual production?
----
As to the deal you criticize, it is bad enough several here want waaayyy overboard on evaluating Stepan. You now want MacKinnon, but want him on the cheap. Let's not everybody waste everybody else's time.
MacK was 1OA
He is on upwards of 6 years at 6 per, which is good for him
You will NOT get MacK for EITHER McD or Skjei
This is about the only way they don't say no.
Now if you don't want to overpay by that much, that is a fair argument to have in a civil discussion.
But c'mon man. You want an omelette you have to crack some eggs.
Screw it.
Bern. Aside from the fact that both proposals are just absolutely ridiculous and involve destroying the entire team for two players.. you then move the two best centers on your proposed team to wing.
The entire reason we need Mackinnon is because we now lack at a top line center. You trade the entire team for one and then move him to wing. You also move our second best center in Zibanjaed to wing for good measure.
If JT Miller is capable of playing first line center as you propose then we don't need to give up a truckload get the top line center anyway
1. Props are not ridiculous cause MacK is an elite talent and would command that much overpayment.
You don't wanna overpay, fine, no deal, but don't pretend that would not be the cost.
2 As to the other player, Reinhart, there is need to move Zuc before he commands north of 6. Pay attention, I suggest, to the memos from RangerBoy
Wanna go in another direction on Zuc? fine, but zuc + Buch + for Reinhart ++ is not the worst way to go.
3.
The entire reason we need Mackinnon is because we now lack at a top line center.
Wrong.
The ONLY reason to consider such as massive overpay is the mindboggling synergy created by having Kreider + MacK on the same line
Since NM is righty shot, that would make a lot of sense, esp if he and Kreid can focus on finishing with another guy doing the setup.
4 I said Zib, maybe here, maybe there.
Right now, he would be that bookend to Kreider.
but if we did get MacK to pair with CK, then the thought of Reinhart and Zib dominating is sweet
5 JT Miller can handle 1C
Anyone who wants to contradict me, fine, I will eventually be proven as correct on that as I was right about Stepan.
Harnett speculating on twitter the Rangers may move Miller back to center..
The only thing that currently makes sense to do.
And I see that may be sooner than later.
Although I disagree with most of the trades you make major overpayment), a kreider-Mackinnon-Reinhart line sounds absolutely ****ing amazing
Yes, well the supreme overpayment comes with the territory, shoe on the other foot, how much less would you take to do that deal?
but the main point is Kreider and MacK at the ends, with the correct pivot.
Not that MacK can't play C, but in this specific instance, my argument stands.
