Speculation: Tomas Hertl

[Lays]

With recent reports that Hertl isn’t happy in SJ, or even the fact that it’s highly doubtful he re-signs with the Sharks, what’s his worth? Would love him on the Rangers and I’m sure every playoff team would love to add a player like him. Fringe 1C that can break out in a new environment, only 27, and his last year on his contract before UFA.

This is an absurdly misleading OP.

1st + Barron

This is an absurdly misleading OP.

Are you going to say what’s wrong with it or what

 

[Lays]

1st + Barron

Swap Barron for Zac Jones and I’d do it

? Avs, not Rangers.

 

[Lays]

? Avs, not Rangers.

My bad lol was thinking you were saying the cost from the Rangers to Sharks was Morgan Barron+1st and not his brother Justin. Didn’t see your pfp/name

 

[Groo]

Just did this not long ago
Value of: - Tomas Hertl

1st, Chytil, Schneider

 

[Nico Cauzuki]

Habs should 100% be on this,doesnt he have an NTC tho? Dont know it he waives for here

Hertl is not receiving this package from any team.

Did you read through the thread I linked?

 

[Captain97]

Assuming we don't match the KK offer sheet

2 1sts this year + Ghule for an extended Hertl?

I'd want the 1sts lottery protected though.

I’m mainly talking about the package you proposed

That would actually be a slight overpay if he didnt come with an extension. Thats a solid package though.

 

[themelkman]

Someone didnt read the article and doesnt know the player. Fringe 1c lol

 

[Kupo]

Rangers won’t be able to commit to Hertl unless they plan on letting Zibanejad walk, which is asinine.

 

[Groo]

I’m mainly talking about the package you proposed

Yes and it was discussed and agreed to with the understanding of an extension being worked on on NY's end. I know that not everybody was on board but such is the nature of this place

 

[VanillaCoke]

Calgary needs a 1C, still.

 

[themelkman]

Rangers won’t be able to commit to Hertl unless they plan on letting Zibanejad walk, which is asinine.

You wont like to hear this but thats 100% the right decision playerwise. Hertl is far superior. Now is it the right move if you have to trade what you probably will to get Hertl? Probably not

 

[Patty Ice]

even the fact that it’s highly doubtful he re-signs with the Sharks

Oh that is a fact? I'd love to see you substantiate that claim.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Are you going to say what’s wrong with it or what

Saying he isn't happy and it being highly doubtful he re-signs is highly misleading since that isn't what the reports said.

 

[bl02]

Would be disaster to give up three very good cost controlled assets for someone who is gonna want what 8.5 million x 8 years?
With two pretty serious Knee surgeries under his belt?!

 

[Captain97]

That would actually be a slight overpay if he didnt come with an extension. Thats a solid package though.

That package was 100% assuming he is extended, but a 1-2 punch of Hertl Suzuki would be insane. Both are really good 2 way players and both could be the 1C on a lot of teams. The Habs top 9 would be

Toffoli - Suzuki - Caufield
Hoffman - Hertl - Gallagher
Drouin - Evans - Anderson

That looks pretty solid.

So, OP posts insanely misleading interpretation of situation, says he wants player, then doesn't make an offer himself but proceeds to criticize any offers, proves he doesn't have any clue what Hertl brings to the table, AND ignores supporting evidence of previous conversations where many people agreed upon said players's value, all within 25 posts? Pretty impressive self-kneecapping, I'd say.

If Rangers could get away with 1st, Chytil, and Schneider, they'd better take it and run (ignoring cap implications, that is).

Again, a future UFA isn't worth 3 1st rd picks
