Speculation: Roster Building Thread DCLXXXVIII: Preparing for a huge letdown

[Savant]

To everyone saying trade Zucc:
Hes 29, on a friendly contact, showing no signs of decline, is an integral part of team culture, and is one of our top players. Just stop.

There are certainly other players that should be traded before Zuccarello

Nash and grabner are the only two wingers I see a trade involving

 

[Savant]

Alright so now is the time then.

A team that trades their best center at a position which they were weak at to begin with (and also happens to be the most important in the sport) clearly has no plans of winning a Cup. Keeping McDonagh around when he is a UFA in two years is a waste.

Gibe me Brown and Chabot.

Ask Ottawa what they think of that deal.

 

[Lime]

Could Burmistrov help us replace Lindberg he's a defensive minded centre right

Sure. But McDonagh should be first to go.

Ask Ottawa what they think of that deal.

Ask Ottawa if they want to get back to the ECF before Karlsson either walks or they have to give him so much money they wont be able to field a 20 man roster.

 

[GOAT AINEC]

Wtf is Vancouver doing? They should have gone through a rebuild years ago. Instead they just try their best to stay as average as possible.

 

[GregSirico]

They are Rangers WEST.

All are valid points but I'm saying ask someone on HFOTT what they think and come back with feedback.

Asked what Mac's value is ... this should be fun.

Some offers in there already.

Vancouver is what happens when you try a half measure retool.

Good!

That Toronto offer is a good way to start. Don't love Kapanen though.

Yeah, I would think really hard about accepting that.

The TO deal all day

Same, but I would like the main piece to be a bit younger than Kadri. Hell of a player though.

I kind of want William Nylander as the centerpiece from TO.

 

[Clown Fiesta]

His NMC would have expired tomorrow

Capfriendly shows it for the duration of his contract so idfk.

Only the no trade portion of it. The prohibition on sending him to the minors would've still been in place.

That's what I thought, but wasn't sure, thanks.

He's only a 2/3 on Nashville. A 2 on Ottawa, TB and maybe a few others. That's it. He's a 1 everywhere else.
