Michalek's skating is really picking up the past few weeks. I think it's in Ottawa's best interest to extend him at the right price.
He doesn't look good getting 6M this year and 4.3 or whatever on the cap, but what if he was getting 2.5-3.0M for 2-3 years. Then you have a guy who can play top-9. At times top 6 when needed (injuries) and is a solid player on the 3rd line. Still has offense to give. I feel like his numbers will come up a bit down the stretch. He's honestly playing quite well the past 5-7 games. Looking faster.
Smith, Michalek and a conditional 2nd rd pick (2015) if Michalek doesn't sign with Preds) for Hornqvist & a 4th.

90% of these proposals are garbage. You guys know that the other team has needs as well, right? You can't just give away our crap for valuable players. No wonder scouts admitted to reading HF proposals for a laugh at the bar.

he'll easily get a job in the nhl. florida would definitely pick him up- they pick up all our old players... winny, butler, gilroy...

How does our centre depth look if you subtract Spezz?
He's only suggesting it because of the Spezza proposals.
Well 90% of all trades are crap. No wonder most fans laugh at their trades for a laugh at the bar, as well. I find that the only true way to determine if the trade isn't "crap" is to see the players play on the new team, otherwise it's just anyone with an opinion bashing it because people do not like change.

I'd move Spezza for a bag of puck, a 1st rounder, some heart in the club, and Tyler Ennis.
Yeah right not happening either, stop with your Karlsson hate. He's our best player and only way he moves is if he wants to.

Karlsson even at no where near 100% is still our best player and only 23.
Dat logic to trade him.

well a Karlsson proposal is indeed refreshing with so many Spezza ones around,\
technically as Karlsson contract does not include any trade clauses, and Spezza's does, it means it's Spezza who moves if he wants to.

Yeah okay, I understand that, the problem is Cujomi is always getting on Karlsson's back only because he's pissed that people are on his mancrush Spezza. He was in the Karlsson thread saying his +/- is no good and he's bad on defense he can be better blablabla, while he's been our best player and best defensemen and his +/- 75% of the time is not his fault or it's an empty netter. Pretty sure he was on the ice for 2 or 3 so scratch them and he's not so bad considering our team must be like -20
I know, just pointing out Cujomi is exagerating again

he's pointing out faults not because he wants to trade a player or dislikes him, but doing something very normal, criticizing a player for not meeting realistic expectations. Though trade proposals are going too far, it's clear at least why he does it.
Disagree, also you really think Murray would move Karlsson? come on
Plus this trade proposal is awful, we don't need offense we need defense so yeah let's trade our best one, Norris trophy winner the last full season, for a far worse who's bigger and softer, slower, and less smart on the ice just so we can add a top6 elite winger.
Why does either team do it ?
Also not meeting realistic expectations? what were your expectations for Karlsson? guy can't do it all himself, he's at 30pts in 34 games -6 while playing 27mins a night, our team is -15. This is all while trying to get comfortable with his ankle.

what do you disagree with? well I'm not gonna actually look at a Karlsson proposal unless I see Crosby, or maybe Malkin/Stamkos. But what you said applies to Spezza in effect as well.

Capgeek says that karlsson will have a limited ntc in the 2017-2018 season and the 2018-2019 season.

Well then get off your high horse and show us a decent proposal. It's an internet forum, 90% of anything written on them is ********!
Defining "decent" is always an adventure isn't it.
I was wondering if Edmonton would look at Anderson and Michalek for Yakupov, Martindale and Klefbom.
Enhances their goaltending and adds a player who could impact their top 6. We get Yakupov who would settle into our top 6, add a good Ottawa-centric prospect in Martindale and another good D prospect.
We'll need to bring up Lawson, but he's had quite a good year in the AHL so far.
