If Ottawa wants to give us Mews and picks in return, sure let’s do.
Mews is too good to move for a 30-50 games of Mintyukov.
Would be a pretty easy sell to get him more exposure in his draft year by taking Blooms old minutes and lining up with Misa as well.
I tend to agree with you BUT that has to be the asking price. We aren’t hurting for picks anymore. And this last trade shows Drinkell isn’t interested in discounts.
Don't think you're getting any 06 for an import, despite how good Mintyukov is. The few teams who actually have room for an import who's in his last year will diminish the market quite a bit
Another guy they traded for years back name started with an S. i can’t remember but it appears North Bay is never afraid to make early deals to help them for another deep playoff run. I like the management style. Always in it to win it mentality.
Wolves have an import spot open as well as an OA spot. Wouldn’t be a stretch for the Wolves to make a pitch for him. Maybe starting with Mania and Derbidge for his services. Wolves could surprise a lot of people with making a move like this. They have alot of youth on the backend and returning players next season where giving Mania a US born player who would be the offensive guy on the backend that would complement Miss for a few years. Wish Papineau was as brave as the North Bay GM.
