I honestly dont think I would move again unless its something small.
That seems like a 2 teams fleecing CBJ tbh, the 11th is probably more in line with Necas value, but I don't really know shitTo Carolina - 11th overall + Ferraro
To San Jose - 4th overall + Something small from CBJ
To Columbus - Necas + 53rd overall
I used the DeBrincat trade from Chicago to Ottawa as a proxy. Debrincat got 7th, 39th, and 72nd for a total of 52.57. 4th overall is worth 55.24 while 53rd is worth 4.51 (nets down what CBJ is giving up to 50.73).That seems like a 2 teams fleecing CBJ tbh, the 11th is probably more in line with Necas value, but I don't really know shit
Anyway, I think the trade is especially solid when looking at it like 14+42 for 11+53, which is basically what happened
Wonder how far 33+53 could move us up, it would be cool to get Solberg/Emery in the late first, and then ideally get a LHD, RHD and Macky boy for our first round
As a Solberg Stan, who thinks he will be annoying to play against for a long time...This was such a ridiculously good trade for us. At 14 we would have been selecting between Helenius, MBN, Eiserman, Solberg...
Instead we got Sam f***ing Dickinson.
I find it hilarious how on the broadcast they said Buffalo tried to trade down again from 14 and no takers...yep, would have been the predictable choice of Jiricek, MBN, Helenius, and Eiserman if the Sharks stayed there while watching Buium and Dickinson drop out of the top-10. Great f***ing work Mike!As a Solberg Stan, who thinks he will be annoying to play against for a long time...
I 100% agree. Insane Grier W. Just totally mind blowing from Buffalo, Philly.
Crazy! I think it's a clear indication they really want someone and will take them at 11.
See, this is why you make this trade in advance. Do you think Buffalo is trading down if they know Dickinson and Buium are available? I’m not so sure.
Now that it's happened, I'm kinda curious if people were really as high on Solberg as they claimed to be, or whether that was just cope because nobody really thought we'd be able to get one of the top guys. Not looking to bust any balls, but it just felt like too fast a rise to me. I'm sure he'll be a solid pro.This was such a ridiculously good trade for us.

I don't know. Buffalo is in a lot different place than we are. I would suspect they knew as much about who was likely to be there as Grier did and for them, the extra pick was more valuable. I'd have been elated to get Helenius at 14 if we'd stayed put, but I much prefer trading up and getting Dickinson.See, this is why you make this trade in advance.

I still think Solberg is going to be a fantastic player. He's just a rare package with that elite physicality on top.Now that it's happened, I'm kinda curious if people were really as high on Solberg as they claimed to be, or whether that was just cope because nobody really thought we'd be able to get one of the top guys.

My thoughts exactly. Helenius at 14 seems like a great pick (should have gone at 13th IMHO) but I take Dickinson all day, every day over him! Screw the 2nd rounder we gave up, hah.I don't know.

Hodge is happy! I'm happy too. Is anyone here unhappy? We all seem on the same page with this.This was such a ridiculously good trade for us. At 14 we would have been selecting between Helenius, MBN, Eiserman, Solberg...

Already on record saying that while I'm still a Solberg fan and think he'll end up as top 15 value (with my crystal ball here), I'm ecstatic we got Dickinson. I'm even happy with Dickinson despite having Buium higher in my mind.Now that it's happened, I'm kinda curious if people were really as high on Solberg as they claimed to be, or whether that was just cope because nobody really thought we'd be able to get one of the top guys.

I still think Solberg would have been a great pick at #14 and I'm kind of pissed the Ducks got him. He could be a problem.Now that it's happened, I'm kinda curious if people were really as high on Solberg as they claimed to be, or whether that was just cope because nobody really thought we'd be able to get one of the top guys.
