Not So Mighty
Enjoy your freedom, you wintertimer.
Cogliano immediately came to mind when I read the title. I mean, it's like you wrote this specifically for him.
upshall really? he looked pretty bad for van in camp
edit just looked up his stats and noticed hes got 12 points already wow.
Scandella was another one. May not have been elite defensively, but he was reliable, usually.
Gotta be honest, don't really think the Wild have one this year. Brodin is the closest but I don't think he really fits.
Connor Brown
Brendan Gallagher
Justin Braun
Worst trade of the summer easily. Not sure what your GM was thinking there but I'm glad he did.Yeah, I think Brodin has some pretty good value around the league. Agree on Scandella... as I'm sure you know, i am still really pissed about that trade. Watching Ennis and Foligno fumble the puck night after night is killing me.
I don't know if Brown really has that low trade value but this mostly applies to rentals or undervalued players. On the Leafs, it's probably JVR and Hainsey.
I agree with Hainsey for sure, but not with JVR. I have no doubt if the Leafs decided to move JVR they'd get a hefty return for him. It's just on this site that his value has taken a hit because of the constant trade proposals. In the real world 30 goal scorers return pretty much exactly what you'd expect them to......a lot.
Paul Byron for the Habs.
Claimed off of waivers two years ago.
Two years ago had 11 goals in 62 games.
Last year he broke out with 22 goals in 81 games.
This year he has 9 goals in 31 games.
He has the speed to burn by defenders. He kills penalties. He rarely plays on a scoring line. Limited power play time. Makes slightly under 1.2 million this season and next.
He looks like a really solid trade bait chip yet he never gets mentioned in trade talks. You would think if the Habs did a rebuild that many teams would be after him yet no one is ever interested in trade proposals.
all the empty net goals for michael grabnerGrabner and its not even close. Guy is gonna score 25-30 goals easy all at even strength or pk. Terrific on pk and makes Nothing.
I'm really happy that Hendricks has returned to form. He just couldn't stay healthy, I thought for sure that he was done after watching him last year.Matt Hendricks and Brandon Tanev
