*Looks at Necas’s numbers*

That guy may have helped us…

 

[Fjordy]

Well now we need to get a top 6 forward and fix the second line.

So we replacing Quinn already

I'm not saying that we're replacing Quinn specifically, but we need to fix the second line without breaking up the first and third, imo.

This whole episode sums up the situation well:

Kevyn Adams needs to add a top 6 forward at a time when teams aren't selling top 6 forwards.

They talked about the Vanek to the Islanders trade and the Eichel to Vegas trades as examples.

But, who is available like that is the challenge...

Calgary might shop Mantha.

Agreed. Outside of a few really good teams, majority are with in a few points of each other. I don't see many wanting to make any moves at this point. If some teams start to fall back then maybe a trade happens.

Also with the way things have been you don't see much trade action happening during the season

 

[SnuggaRUDE]

I wonder if/when some of Bostons older guns want to move.

 

[Jim Bob]

Calgary might shop Mantha.

Mantha is 10th in EV TOI/GP amongst Calgary's forwards this season and 8th in total EV TOI. I do not see him being a solid top 6 guy at this point in his career.

This is Adams' problem and no one else's, he didn't add a top 6 F in the offseason, now we don't have a second line.

Let him call the teams that are going to go after Hagens anyway, let him call a team like Calgary, Flyers,
