Roster Building XXIV: Our Hearts Go Pitter Pattersson

[Anton Dubinchuk]

No way

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Well this should be interesting. Can't wait to see how it all shakes out.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Goodbye Necas

 

[Wolfpuck]

Eric Tulsky is a f***ing madman and I love it!

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Is Frank hacked? Cause the part after Hall seems nucking futs.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Goodbye Necas

For Rantanen? Absolute steal. I think it’s got to be Svech.

 

[hblueridgegal]

I saw this suggestion the other day and just laughed..holy cow the guy was right

 

[Sigurd]

Okay, so we moved on from Vancouver if we're getting Rantanen.

What are we trading for him?! Gotta be big like someone else said.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I mean, this is exhilirating. But man, what the give up is going to be is going to be something else.

 

[User13452]

Gotta be necas plus more unless it’s Svech

 

[HisIceness]

Oh wow. I'm scared

 

[A Star is Burns]

I'd be plenty fine moving on from Necas. Capitalize on that hot start. Svech, I'd be upset. I will say, since I follow the Avs closely, Rantanen is very talented but frustrating at times just like Necas, but clearly just better in general.

 

[MinJaBen]

Wouldn’t shock me to see Svech as the main piece to replace Rants in Colorado.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Sounds like Necas to Colorado

Also, RIP boards soon I'm sure.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Look at me.

I’m the HF Boards killer now.

 

[A Star is Burns]

The Moose is f***ing loose in Carolina!

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Necas and McKinnon on the same team is going to give the league fits with their speed. Any older defenseman is just going to DREAD coming to Colorado, especially adding the altitude on top of that.

 

[CanesUltimate11]

I guess Tulsky missed having a top 10 scorer on the team.

 

[User13452]

Hawks retaining half on rantanen and none on hall so about 10 mill comes in and goes out

 

[Svechhammer]

All hail Tulsky, the bringer of talent!

 

[User13452]

Drury not KK

 

[Unsustainable]

Lets us KK and prospects for Miller

Rantanen - Aho - Jarvis
Svech - Miller - Hall

 

[MinJaBen]

So, the Miller deal could still be completely doable if KK and Roslovic go the other way?

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Have a feeling we will trade for somebody that has not been considered "available" and it'll be completely out of the blue. Similar to when we got Skjei and Trocheck, neither of whom were in any trade rumors until we grabbed them like right at the deadline that year. Not gonna make any guesses as to who that mystery player might be. Of course I could see us just getting Miller instead but I don't consider him that big of a splash or the result of a "pounce."

Hmm

 

[User13452]

So, the Miller deal could still be completely doable if KK and Roslovic go the other way?

Yes but I doubt they want that contract on the books now. It was either miller rantanen or EP according to Freidman they had 3 separate trades lined up and they chose the rantanen deal
