Confirmed with Link: Viktor Stalberg to OTT for 2017 3rd round pick

[Smash88]

It's funny how perception changes as soon as it's a pick and not a player chosen with said pick.

To me this is basically the same impact to the organisation as the Burrows trade.

Always liked Stalberg, this is a nice add.

So does this mean our AHL team has no true studs to come up and play 4th line minutes?

You in no way want your studs playing on the 4th line.

4th liner on a non-playoff Carolina team.
Did he score against sens the other night or something?

 

[operasen]

Hoffman
Smith
Dzingel
Burrows
Stalberg
Pyatt
DiDomenico

That's a lot or LW players.

Dorion must really think this draft is crap.

Can't help but feel bad for the 17 and 18-year-olds up for the draft this year. The NHL hierarchy is really slapping them down. I hope some of those kids use it as a motivating tool and surprise everyone in a few years.

That said, I really don't care about 3rd to 7th round picks. The odds of those becoming legit NHLers is tiny.

No, there's a significant difference between an unknown 3rd round pick in a weak draft year and a second round pick who has done nothing but impress and would possibly be considered a late first round pick in a re-draft.

I guess we don't want any more Lazar messes. Poor kid.

Ding ding ding! We have a winner. Bob, tell him what he's won!

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Lazar is totally on his way out. We'll recoup a pick there.

I am sure the quality of this draft is being overexaggerated.

It is not as good as the draft where we picked up Chabot and White, but i really doubt it is as horrible as people think it is.

Having said that, if there was a draft where you don't mind trading picks for actual quality players, this upcoming draft is probably the draft to do it.

Jesus christ he sucks at this. Why are they giving up a 3rd rounder for a 4th liner. 12 points in 57 games HAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Dino Tkachuk]

Nice pickup. fair price too.

So, once Ryan's back;

Dzingel-Turris-Ryan
Smith-Brassard-Stone
Hoffman-Pageau-Burrows
Stalberg-Wingels-Pyatt

Seems like Smith might end up back at center, we've got 3 wingers on the 4th line unless Kelly or Lazar stay in the lineup.

You forgot White.

 

[Langdon Alger]

Lazar is totally on his way out. We'll recoup a pick there.

Could Lazar and a 4th land us a second? I would think Dorion would like to get back a second rounder in this draft or next draft.

You can't be serious....!!??

 

[Tundraman]

After making so many negative comments in the Borrows thread I need to make a positive comment so here goes:

Stalberg is a UFA.

Chill. We'll get at least a second back for Lazar.

it is

 

[sens613]

Definitely added a lot of team speed and depth. Don't mind giving away potential for a chance at a solid run and really pushing a team identity . Good culture to have.

keep in mind it's the 2nd tier Swedish League.

 

[Hale The Villain]

This trade would have been good if we hadn't already dealt futures for Burrows. Now it's kind of unnecessary.

 

[trentmccleary]

Exactly, I count 15 forwards on NHL deals not even counting DiDi. Lazar is gone.

 

[Sens]

Make it a conditional 6th that moves up.

Asset management this team is not good at... move after move after move just chip away at the asset pool.
