If it means getting an elite defender at 22 years old, yes I'll happily trade Severson, McLeod ++. Lindholm is elite and is far better than any defender we have had in a while.

I would turn down Severson/McLeod for Lindholm if I wan the Ducks. I definitely think it should take more, but I'm not sure how competent of a GM they have at this point. Lindholm is incredibly underrated.

Now we Plummet
Would you like a quote from the Oilers GM saying that he would trade Yak and Hall in separate deals to the same team? I don't know what you expect, but that type of quote is not going to get out. Also like I already said you aren't going to find teams with multiple first OA picks, let alone trading them. So yes I stand by my position. I have said it before the two trades for Yak and Hall are both independent. But you don't seem to understand that.
Zajacs Bowl Cut
Lets Go Baby
They don't but in their defence the Ducks are on the west and he is definitely underrated. But to say he is not proven is not accurate, like another poster above said.

DSP significantly slows down whatever line he's on down and we can't afford to have that if they are going to continue to play poorly like this especially with this speed game they are trying to implement here.
Understand it's a new group of guys and they have to get used to one another, but the constant dump/chase or trying to make passes at the offensive blue line, wing to wing pass attempts in the neutral zone, or blind passes/flipping the puck away aimlessly among several other issues is giving us the issues we've faced pretty much every game.
Lucky to have come away with a W last night.

I admittedlyhaven't seen the ducks a ton over the last year.
I just browsed some of his advanced stats and they are very impressive. And when you consider he is a 22 year old they are even more impressive.

That's just plain silly. I can't see them getting a better offer. Who is going to trade them a 'Lindholm' for theirs?

If you are going to call my position illogical, I'd like proof of it being that, yes. Beyond that, you are entitled to your views, but I don't think it is fair to call mine illogical when you don't have evidence for doing that.
I think any talk of Lindholm would would start with Zacha. I'm not even sure they'd do a straight up trade for Hall.

Everyone should try and catch this Albany game at 3:05.
I don't believe that the roster has been announced but there is a potential for Quenneville, Blackwood, Blandisi, Wood, Santini, Lappin, Coleman, Pietila to be in this afternoons game. Very exciting moment.

They apparently want a dman back so I don't think it starts with Zacha at all.
Unfortunately, I don't see what we can trade back that makes sense. I dunno if I see anyone trading what they want that makes sense actually. Hoping we can voltron something together but doubt we'd win that bidding war either.

So, when is the time to give Kinkaid a game? There's the back-to-back next weekend, but he might have to wait longer than that. I'd give hime the one vs. Chicago, but that's just me.

main board opinion is such cancer though - remember when yakupov was worth at LEAST a 2nd rounder + prospect?

Just thought I would throw this out there....At his current goal rate, Hall is on pace for 49.2 goals this season 
82/5*3=49.2 I think we should all agree that is an acceptable and sustainable rate of production and not question it in any way 
Also should throw out he is shooting like a mad man. Currently on pace for 344 SOG this season assuming 82 GP. His shooting % is at 14% so while it is slightly higher than his average it's within the range of sustainability.
