Value of: #6D To Calgary

[Curufinwe]

Hagg seems like he's making the team. I don't think Hextall has any interest in trading him.

 

[Rubi]

I say play Rasmus Anderson as the #6 D

So what if both he and Stone are Righties. Left / Right isn't something carved in stone.

Gulutzan is triggered.

 

[DJJones]

If Andersson was a LD this wouldn't even be a discussion but Gully seems a bit anal with the LD/RD pairings.

 

[Lindys Lazy Eye]

You can have Ben Lovejoy for future considerations

 

[TOGuy14]

Martin Marincin + 7th for please god get him off our roster.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Martin Marincin + 7th for please god get him off our roster.

Are you crazy? look at his advanced stats. The guy is a monster for sure. I guess I'd let him go for a 4th rounder but he'd be sorely missed

 

[UnleashRasmus]

You have a guy in Rasmus Andersson that should be more than capable. If not Brett Kulak.

 

[CapnZin]

Andrew MacDonald for a conditional 7th? If he doesn't suck we'll get a 6th?

Brandon Manning for a mid/late draft pick?

We do, and he is.
Andersson has outplayed Kulak, Wotherspoon and Bartkowski with ease. He deserves the spot but likely won't get it due to Glen Gulutzen's weird fascination for not having two players with the same handedness play together.

3.5 for a #6?

Typical pairings are constructed with

1) A two-way defenseman who produces points, plays tight gaps, recovers pucks, and makes a great first pass (#1 / #3 / #5)
2) A steady, sizey defenseman who kills penalties and generally boxes out the front of the net (#2 / #4 / #6)

Stone is a big defensive defenseman who kills penalties and produces points. He's a #6 in terms of role, but he doesn't need a pure #5 to be successful because he's offensively capable. I value him as a ~3.25M player so 3.5 is an acceptable overpayment.

I guess he's a #5B or #5.5 defenseman rather than a #6 if you really want to analyze his role. He'll anchor the bottom pair but his partner needs to be a puck mover. He can't play with a guy like Clayton Stoner or Matt Bartkowski. But he isn't himself a guy like Clayton Stoner or Matt Bartkowski.

In many ways that's similar to Shea Weber, who's neither a true #1 nor a #2.

Well, you had me until the very end

Edit: Nvm may have misinterpreted the last line after all that. The logic is a bit flawed though because I don't think the #1 absolutely has to be the puck mover, Burns was second fiddle to Vlasic for a while for example

Stone is really nice as a #5, to the point that I think he can hold up a below average #6

 

[TheNewEra]

borowiecki for a 7th

 

[E-Train]

Nick Holden is your man

Beat me to it.

 

[Legend123]

Alzner for free?

 

[Cowumbus]

Harrington or Nutivaara from CBJ, stuck in a numbers game.

 

[Deen]

Kris Russell?

 

[RyderRocks73]

I mean, Montreal has a slew of them, but what are you offering? You might be better off keeping your picks, prospects, or depth players and filling the role from within.

 

[Scott Stevens]

Tanev from bucks for a 7th

If we are lucky! I have seen the light.

 

[Hammettf2b]

You can have Xavier Ouellet for free

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

Nick Holden is your man

^This


Holden for Hunter Shinkaruk (so we can send him to Hartford) and Curtis Lazar

 

[VoluntaryDom]

You can have Xavier Ouellet for free

I thought DET fans were hyped for him last season?

Some were/still are. I however was never a fan.

 

[flyersfan018]

You can have Manning for a conditional late round pick.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Kronwall straight up for a bag of pucks
