GDT: G64: Wild @ Avalanche - 8PM CST

[Blue Ox]

I like this Faber kid .

 

[Minnewildsota]

I think I might be in a slow motion break up with this team , I just can’t do it anymore. Guerin is untenable

It was nice knowing you, I guess.

 

[Digitalbooya]

Faber you filthy animal

 

[AKL]

I wouldn’t include our first this year. 25 first (top 7 protected), Ohgren, 2nd, Haight

Kaprizov assist alert. Faber bingo alert.

Hmm, make it a 2nd + Beckman or 3rd + Haight and I'm on board.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Assuminf there's an extension? What's your price?

Yeah.

Depends on where our 1st ends up, but if it's 7 or later, and the draft goes chalk-ish*, I think I'd very much consider putting it in play. A pick that high probably shouln't need a TOP prospect attached, so no Yurov/Wallstedt. I'd have to think about Ohgren.

1st + conditional 2nd (1st if make playoffs) + prospect. Something like that.

*Celebrini, Levshunov, Catton, Dickinson, Demidov and Eiserman off the board

 

[Roman Maroni]

Faber…Faber…Faber

 

[Sweetnut]

Fabulous Faber!
All alone with the goalie - great shot!
He is soooo f***ing good

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Sniped it, sick Kap pass too

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Yeah.

I wouldn’t trade our pick unless it’s outside of the top 10

Just want to once again mention how f***ed this Kaprizov situation is going to be coming up. Starting this offseason it’s going to be a storyline pretty much until he resigns

 

[AKL]

Yeah.

Only reason I wouldn't want to include our pick this year is because it should be around 10ish, which should be a good player, and they likely make an impact earlier than our pick next year, which I expect to be later than 10ish. This could be the last 1st round pick we make for a year or two and I think it would be nice to have that player join the team in a few years.

What if it's the difference between trading Ohgren vs. Kumpulainen (extreme example but whatever)?

Rossi's so snakebit.

 

[NHL1674]

Somehow I saw the Edina/GR game being closer than this one. Hmmmmm......

For Konecny I guess I wouldn’t let it be a game changer

 

[f7ben]

It was nice knowing you, I guess.

I don’t feel the same

 

[AKL]

Actually the other reason I wouldn't involve the '24 pick is because I wouldn't want to make the trade until after July 1 when we know we can extend him

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

For Konecny I guess I wouldn’t let it be a game changer

2024 1st (let's say #9)
2025 2nd (becomes a 1st if we make the playoffs)
Kumpulainen
Somethng else

for

Konecny at ~$8.5M (shot in the dark) per year long-term

 

[MK9]

Can't see it happening whatsoever. If he was over 30, maybe. Seems like he scores a lot more than Billy would like as well. Doesn't seem like a fit.

Next.

Gross. Top 10 picks don't get traded.

 

[Sweetnut]

Ok, I'm a little lost here (as usual).
But why didn't he get a penalty there?

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Gross. Top 10 picks don't get traded.

Yes they do, just not often.

 

[Roman Maroni]

You can pick up a teammates stick but not opposing teams stick.

Yeah.
But what about his locker room skills? Maybe he's extremely good at tossing the towels around?

 

[Minnewildsota]

You can pick up a teammates stick but not opposing teams stick.

Unless you already have a stick in your hand. You can only have 1 stick.

Not saying that happened, just extending rule clarification

 

[Digitalbooya]

Yes they do, just not often.

It would be a bad idea to trade one for Konecny

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

It would be an idea.

Just trying to figure out how get some god damn right-handed skill in this forward group.
