COACHING!! (IS OVERRATED?!?)
We haven't had a real trade Ghost debate crossing 7 threads in quite a while.
Can we revisit trade half the prospect pool for Drouin? He's generational..ish
Like every other team, I would freaking love to add Panarin, but I feel like our 3rd line center is our biggest forward need. I want Giroux to stay at wing.
Giroux Voracek Coots Jvr Patrick Konecny Lindblom Hartman Laughton
Provo Sanheim Ghost Myers Gudas
Hart
Panarin or a top tier third line Center ie Josh Anderson!
A 28yr Mcdonagh for 6mil on multi yr deal would be the exact leader, and add this team needs to solidify our top 6 D.
Cam Talbot could be the perfect back up other then probably too expensive.

Hahahaha. My thoughts on all the above topics will change next week too to keep the thread going.* WE'RE TIRED OF THE DRAFT!! TRADE OUR 1ST FOR HELP!! RABBLE RABBLE!!
* YOU DON'T TRADE A TOP 15 PICK!! THEY ARE GOLDEN!! RABBLE RABBLE!!
Hockey Central saying Skinner's price could be 6-7 million now.
Has 15 points in his last 28 games. Has come back down to earth. I think he gets more than JVR. I see him getting 7x7.5 million.
Nobody wants a crap vet like AMac though. The ones that want a vet, want one that can help lead the kids. Someone like EK or Spurgeon become our best Dman the moment they are on the ice. Having a guy like that for them to lean on and learn from is invaluable. Especially with Gudas only having 1 year left. For next year, you have both, then that "new" guy replaces Gudas spot essentially. Still lots of room for everyone.While he's come back down to earth, the team really has a whole. I think Skinner, with the right system and linemates can do some serious damage. Has a great shot and can skate well. I think he'd be more expensive than JVR though basically just due to age. However, I think he'll be cheaper than Panarin.
I think my only real issue with getting someone like Panarin/Skinner is that it'll more than likely prevent someone like Farabee to play top 6 minutes in a few years, especially since I think these guys would want long contracts.
Also, the notion that we need vet D-men really misses what we actually have. We have some damn good young D-men who are ready to burst out and they've shown tons of skill and deserve to play over just some aging vet. AMac is well over the hill and shouldn't play for the O&B again. Morin, Myers and Sanheim are all in prime positions to show off the future of this club and I think they can do it.

I said before, I personally would have Morin as the #7 Dman, and trade Hagg.With keeping Ghost, Provy, Gudas, Myers and Sanheim for next year, do you play Morin or Hagg? Or does one get sent down? I really wish Morin would get play time as he's been good from the little spurts I've seen. I'd love EK on this team more than Spurgeon, but he definitely would be a costly one. Admittedly, EK would fit better on this team than getting a winger.
What is the maximum that the Spurgeon-philes (among whom I count myself) would pay in a trade?
i now know that, the hamburgler lives in south park. rabble rabble rabble hamburger.SPEND MONEY!!!
