Proposal: Trade Rumours/Proposals PART XXXXX

[Burrowsaurus]

Joseph likely back in on Friday.

Maybe he partied with his family two nights ago. Came back late. Up early this morning. Maybe super hungover pissed the coach off? I dono.

If he’s healthy scratched AGAIN theeeeeeen maybe shit is a little more serious than that

 

[Micklebot]

Do players have curfews when they’re not on the road? Genuine question, I have no idea.

Idk, Could have happened when they were on the road against the blues, he was expected to play that game too,

Can the board please take away the keys from Dorion being a buyer at the deadline.
He's brought it up again on a TVA sports interview. Not a seller. Not status quo. Could be buyers. Is what he said.

Some talk referencing Craig Button.. and possibly Pinto being being moved

Stupid and desperate are a frightening combination.

Dorion should already be on the chopping block but if Pinto or Greig are moved for a guy like Dumba he needs to be investigated for some kind of kickback scheme.

Dorion is gonna leave us with one more zibanejad +2 for brassard before he leave us

I'm fine with moving Pinto if the return is adequate.

What's his track record since the owner died? Seems like once the handcuffs were removed he's been able to do his job in a more consistent and positive way.

 

[stempniaksen]

I'd still be scared to move Pinto because the C depth after the top-3 is pretty bad (unless Greig is a for sure C) but for a top-four RD under 26 under contract you'd have to at least be open to the possibility.

It wouldn't make this team a playoff team overnight, but Chychrun or Marino instead of Pinto makes us a better team in the short/medium term.

Jury is still out on that imo. Don't expect you to agree.. Do me a favor and don't @ME

You know where that feature is, don't be afraid to use it if you feel that strongly. You can come down from your pedestal now and stop pretending you're above this kind of exchange. I would have a lot more respect for some of you if you just said "you know what? I just wanna be miserable about this f***ing season and I don't care about having a reasonable conversation". Would be great for some of you to just own your feelings instead of pretending to have this holier than thou attitude, like you're tired of having the same conversations on a message board you come back to every day.

That “if” is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.

I brought up in the summer with the chycrun talks that if management really believes that both greig and pinto are long term 3C then one of them has to be on the block for a serious D man.

PD is going to do everything he can to leave a favourable impression with the new ownership group.
He is fighting for his job and he knows that his position is being evaluated with every move....or lack of!

 

[Big Muddy]

IF Pinto is moved, I sure hope its for something good. Not sure how moving a good, young & inexpensive player like Pinto makes any sense unless its the return is legitimately good.

Even if we improve and start winning more, what's the best case scenario in terms of results? I'd guess we'd move from the 25th overall seed to maybe the 22nd or possibly 21st seed. I think that's about it realistically based on the standings and knowing how hard it really is to leapfrog multiple teams.

Does Dorion believe he can save his job? What about our board? What are they thinking and what is their motivation?

 

[WORLDSTARHIPHOP]

Broo if Pinto is moved I'm done...

 

[Burrowsaurus]

It’s like watching a horror movie. You know a jump scare is coming. The build up right there. But you don’t the extent of the jump scare.

 

[WORLDSTARHIPHOP]

If Pinto is moved it just means Pierre has learned nothing over the years ffs

Imagine trading Pinto lol. This teams biggest organization strength is its center depth which is the most important position to build from.

If Pinto is moved it just means Pierre has learned nothing over the years ffs

Gustavsson for Talbot he's learned nothing. Gustavsson's timeline lined up perfectly with the rest of the team.

 

[Emerica]

So he’s played that poorly that he’s getting healthy scratched? Makes sense we’d have interest

no lol. hes scratched so he doesnt get hurt and have the trade fall apart.

 

[Sun God Nika]

Sens have 3.5M in capspace. It should be used one way or another.

I say use it to buy a draft pick. for example.

Patrick kane is 10M caphit.

Chicago Retains 5M

Ottawa would then retain 2.5M and get a 1st for doing so.

a conder gets Kane around 2.5M

Ottawa then uses that first in the offseason as currency to say unload zaitsev or improve the roster in another way.

Eugene would never, but he ain't here.

Might want to tell her lol

You do a lot of projecting against people you don't come close to knowing, Not looking for respect or even replies from you if I did not make that clear enough. "come down from your pedestal" This is a personal attack which has absolutely no foundation. Just you being you attacking posters. It would be great if you discontinued your personal attacks as this is where 90% of your conversations end up. That's why I politely asked you not to @ME. Which you seem not to be able to comprehend or handle with any level of maturity.
