I'm scared

 

[Morry83]

Sturm says he loves the price.

 

[Magic Mittens]

Really excited and i dont think its going to be anything big that we gave up

 

[Benneguin]

Sturm says he loves the price.

What is a good price for a declining 32 year old defensemen with no offensive production go for these days?

2020 2nd and Dylan Ferguson (we picked him in the 7th round)

 

[Magic Mittens]

There goes our 7th round steal!

I can live with this trade

 

[Morry83]

Yeah that's a good deal. Liked Ferguson's potential, but yeah...

 

[Ghost of Kyiv]

Much better price than I was anticipating.

 

[Satan]

im happy?

 

[Benneguin]

So a 2nd and 7th for ~45-70 games of whatever Methot does well. I guess it could be worse.

 

[Magic Mittens]

im happy?

Would you rather we sign Alzner? Hopefully this takes us out of the running

Methot - Kling
Lindell - Johns?
Hamhuis - Honka
Patty
Starting to look better

 

[Satan]

This is way better than being tied to the Alzner Anchor

 

[Starry Knight]

This is way better than being tied to the Alzner Anchor

Agreed. So much more flexibility with this move.

 

[Dallasman]

I like this deal.
And I don't think we're done either. One/two of our dmen has got to be on the way out too. What do we have now, 8-9 dmen who can play in the NHL? Maybe I'm wrong.

 

[Magic Mittens]

So a 2nd and 7th for ~45-70 games of whatever Methot does well. I guess it could be worse.

He has 2 years left on his current contract. Hopefully he plays one full season during those 2 years lol. 41 this year and 41 next year

I'd rather we signed Smith. So tired of throwing away assets on someone who won't be here in two years for someone who at best is marginally better than what we have now.

 

[Kevin27NYI]

What is the outline of the team going forward into next year? Do you guys think the nucleus of Seguin, Spezza, Benn up front and Klingberg, Methot and Hamhuis on D and Bishop in net is good enough to get back into the playoffs?

I just look at Capfriendly and view the team as everything I said above, like it's a depleted roster.

 

[Starry Knight]

I'd rather we signed Smith. So tired of throwing away assets on someone who won't be here in two years for someone who at best is marginally better than what we have now.

He's more than marginally better than what we have and a 2nd in 3 years is nothing to lose sleep over.

 

[Benneguin]

He has 2 years left on his current contract. Hopefully he plays one full season during those 2 years lol. 41 this year and 41 next year

At least we didn't also also sign Eaves. With Oleksiak and Nemeth having season tickets, the press box would overflow.

 

[Benneguin]

He's more than marginally better than what we have and a 2nd in 3 years is nothing to lose sleep over.

We say this every year and every year we wonder why we don't have trade chips when better players go on the market.

 

[Troy McClure]

This is essentially like giving up a bag of pucks.

 

[masinaLFC]

I'm gonna miss you 2020 2nd

Do we?
