If Grans isn't at our pick I'd rather just trade this year's 1st + our 2nd next year to get Flower out of the way.
Ugh not Schmitty
I think they might draft Lapierre over Schneider if they had the chance but who knows
If Lapierre is there at 16, and Bergevin has been quite open about moving the pick...
Sounds like we would only give away a 1st with MAF, with his landing spot giving up the 2nd.Could Marchessault and Schmidt bring back two 1sts to offset the Fleury 1st and 2nd?
Gives cap flexibility and we have young wingers to replace Marchessault. If we do get Pietrangelo that would be the Schmidt replacement. No one needs a raise except for Stephenson getting a million. They would still have room for a Wennberg or someone.
Stamkos rumors too now.
Sure why not?
If he was available for below value because Tampa wanted to thank him for everything he did and we were the only team he would waive for, why not? There's risk but since his rookie year, he has only had one season in twelve where he has scored less points than games he has played. Even in the playoffs he's something like .8 ppg.
Yeah he doesn't score in game sevens but that's what we have Theodore for.
I just can't see them moving him with Johnson agreeing to waive for a few teams.
However I can see a Pietrangelo sign & trade.
Who would Pietrangelo be signing for and traded to in this scenario?
Vegas, to keep his AAV under 9m and move out some cap.

No he won't. 0 chance.

c'mon guys, he won't.
Who has him in the 50s lmao? Trash take, but seriously, who? And if they have Wallinder over him then yeah they're trash.He's in the 50s on these pundit draft boards he COULD easily slide 10ish spots. Can't fall in love with a pick where VGK stands, they will have a few options that will have slid further at both 29 and 67 and should go for value there.
Pronman's ranking:
56. Helge Grans, D, Malmo-SHL
Nothing like Hague. Grans is a great skater. Pronman has had some... less than stellar opinions btw.Scary how much this sounds like Hague:
There’s a lot of times I’m left wanting more. I’ve seen a lot of games he makes little happen offensively and his average feet are exposed defensively. I wouldn’t call him a top-end puck-mover or defender, but he’s got enough tools and track record to make me think he has a fair shot to make it.

Trade? I would love to end the Fleury saga tonight. Too much to wish for I suppose.
