Yes unless Askarov is the real deal. If that is the case, you just fast-tracked your team back to the playoffs.
Saros value is at its peak right now . If there is a inkling of moving him I suspect it would be before the draft. The number of picks being stacked up there has to be a target. Moving into picking top 3 being one of them , if that is not the case
I think that would be a perfect move. Not many of these guys played under Trotz. It will also give him a inside look at the type coach he needs to hire.
I want to see Foote. He’s young and still has potential. Someone has to go before Friday.
I think it is likely fabbro. Just been so much smoke around him for so long now. Hope im wrong though.
I think you may be right. I kinda wish we would move carrier over fabbro. Fabbro is younger and has higher ceiling I feel.
Yep and hes younger. Idk why we would trade either fabbro or carrier unless one wants out of nashville or has a bad name for himself in the lockerroom.
I think we are pretty much done unless someone just gets desperate and offers something silly, which may happen as we saw with Granlund yesterday. We may see Lankinen get moved because it just makes sense but I think if those guys were going to get moved they probably already would have. Now it may just be that Poile has set a high price on them and is unwilling to budge unless someone meets that price, but you haven't heard many whispers on a Trenin or Sissons, and I think Poile's need to move Fabbro is no longer there cause cap isn't an issue anymore.
I really think alot of the waiting is mostly due to teams who are close want to wait as long as possible before deciding to sell.It had been a nice Trade Week. And to be honest, I never understood why teams waited around to Deadline Day for stuff before, it seems like a perfect recipe to either overpay, or be caught without a chair when the music stopped and get desperate. Whereas you should be checking these opportunities out weeks in advance and laying the foundations, exploring all the options, and when you are sure where you stand, the deal should certainly be done long before the hard deadline.
That's some of it, but I think with others its just teams not getting the offers they think they should be so they keep waiting. That's why you always end up seeing a couple decent players late in the day go for pennies cause teams decide to take anything rather than nothing at all.
I’m not sure I ever remember a goalie bringing a true 1C , we know how rare they really are suffering thru years with 2C’s in that slot. Goalies rarely bring a 1st round pick or are they drafted in round 1.
Matthews doesn't make sense, Beddard does. We're looking to build in the next 3-5 years likely. I don't think Matthews would buy-in either with very little to show in terms of a playoff push.
