lol at the 7th for severson

 

[Love]

Sounds like Blake is purely speculating and doesn’t know shit tbh.

 

[DJB]

Going to be a crazy flurry of trades soon hopefully! !!

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Severson would be a solid acquisition... obviously not for 7th overall though

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

GMs are all expected to be on the draft floor within the hour.

 

[y2kcanucks]

Oh Benning. Someone please cut his phone connection.

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

Whats the scoop on Severson.

Hows his play last year ? Why is NJD willing to move him ??

Vats and the quick development of Butcher made him expendable id imagine. Im not a NJ fan but I would think that is the case

 

[Peter Griffin]

If Brady drops to 7th, would Calgary be interested in uniting the Tkachuk bro's? 7th for Dougie Hamilton? Would be a Benning move.

That would be a win for Vancouver, so not all that "Benning" like.

 

[Cancuks]

More like the 7th for Hamonic. That's got Benning written all over it.

 

[NJDevils17]

I don’t really see a deal with Severson that works from a New Jersey perspective. I’d be interested to see what would be in the works though.

 

[Yarborough]

If Tre dealt Hamilton for the 7th to I would be pissed.

 

[polarbearcub]

Ide vomit at 7 for severson. Maybe something like juolevi

There never really is. Why would this year be any different?

He doesn't know how to play defense, and frankly, he's not very good offensively for an "offensive defenseman."

Some Devils fans love him though and always point to his advanced stats.

In my opinion, the positives to his game don't outweigh the negatives right now. Hynes does not seem to be a fan either.

But, he is still young and on a decent contract that can turn into a bargain if he ever gets his game together.

I’d be ok with te 7 for Hamilton, that’s who we would hope the 7 becomes. Hanifin meh but ok, Severson and I would literally turn my tv off and not watch hockey anymore

That would be fun.

But it's probably all media posturing via leak

Severson is probably the most polarizing player on the team. On one hand, he has obvious offensive talent, is a great skater, and his possession metrics are exceptional even though he largely gets paired with awful partners. He's also still quite young (turns 24 this August).

On the other hand, he still makes a lot of boneheaded defensive plays. We were hoping he'd grow out of it but it's looking more unlikely. He also doesn't produce as many points as you would expect based on eye test + possession stats (though to be fairhe hasn't gotten much PP time lately).

Vatanen came in and is by far the superior player, kind of pushing him down the depth charts. He's a guy we aren't necessarily looking to deal because of our defensive situation, but he is expendable and would certainly be the most valuable expendable player we have.

Makes the original hamonic trade look terrible.

 

[EP to Kuzmenko]

I doubt JB trades for any. But he would not be doing his job if he didn't inquire.

 

[Setec Astronomy]

Severson is the type of player that some GMs probably really like for some reason. It doesn't hurt that he's right handed and on a very good contract.

Severson and 17OA for 7OA and Vancouver's second rounder.

Love all the rumours that BEnning and co are feeding the media right now

too bad other media guys are not reporting it as well
