Value of: Top 4 Veteran RHD

[NHL Dude 120]

With Sanderson turning pro at the end of the year we need to get him a veteran partner who can work with him. We need a RHD D-men or someone who can play on the 2nd pair RHD and help ease him in, preferably between 28-34 with 2-3 years left. I’m fine with giving both of our 2nd round picks as a starter and can go from there Our 2nd is basically the same as a late 1st round and we have Tampa’s 2nd which would be around pick 60. Sanderson’s game has been compared to Ryan Suter’s game if that helps.

You have Zub, Zaitsev, Thompson and Bernard-Docker on the back end. Who are the 2 odd men out?

Make a offer for Connor Murphy

Are they actually good?? Because if they're scrubs then we have enough scrubs.

Tell me what it would cost to dump Zaitsev so I know where to start

Not a single one of them is worth a 2nd rounder, Let alone 2 2nd rounders.

Don’t want zaitsev coming back sir

They are scrubs, but Myers has been playing like a #3 under Bruce. Remains to be seen if he can keep it up.

Understandable, but unfortunately I don't think the Sens would take on that amount of money without sending some back. Murphy makes Zaitsev a very expensive 3RD, with a couple of very inexpensive, young, talented RD waiting in the wings.

So while I would personally love Murphy to replace Zaitsev as one of our two top-4 RD, I don't think we would seriously entertain trading for Murphy without knowing we can offload Zaitsev (and at what cost). Realities of a small market, budget team.

Understood.

David Savard for a 4th

We don’t have our 4th but that being said How has be been?

Terrible…

Top 4 quality right shot defensemen dont grow on trees. One with term remaining on his contract that can be acquired in a trade is rarer still. You cant buy this product with a couple of 2nd round picks.

 

[Suzuki2017]

How about Petry?

Two 2nds and he's yours.

 

[S.S. Giggy]

Anaheim will be more than happy to give you Josh Manson in return for a draft pick!

No they wouldn’t

Depends if Vancouver was supposed to include the 2nd rounders in the trade.

Myers has played north of 24 minutes 8 out of the past 9 games and he's looked better with more ice time (he's been making smart defensive plays and then turning those into scoring opportunities), plus he's a 6'8" RHD who is well rounded. While our bottom 3 D have been a revolving door due to injuries, Hughes/ OEL/ Myers have been the defenseman constants holding it all together.
