Value of: Dumba and Hanifin to Pittsburgh

[Haatley]

Back to the drawing board....

 

[rynryn]

Haaaa haaaa god no from the Wild.

 

[bernmeister]

Definitely don't think the Wild do that deal value wise. Dumba is significantly more valuable than Schultz and I don't think Brassard has enough value to bridge that gap.

For the Flames one, I think Maata is a significant step down from Hanifin and I'm not confident that Sprong is as good as he's being presented as. I'm not sure he's a first liner player at all let alone one who makes a hypothetical top line too good to pass up.

concur
the first deal is salvageable, possibly
2nd deal Calgary declines

 

[PensandCaps]

Overpayment, eh? I know Pittsburgh fans have really been into their trading 30+ year old for other team's high end young players. Really wish it would stop. Dumba is leagues better than Schultz. Brassard is a 1 year rental. Overpayment

I mean..I certainly as a pen Fan wouldn't do that Wild deal as we lose a top 6 C and a Top 4 Dman and gain a top 4 Dman...long term it values us but not right now. It would be a net loss. Pens say no to the wild deal, So do the Wild. it's an amazingly awful proposal.

Nope. If Dumba is traded then we want a young top 6 center coming back.

Look here I am a Pens fan and also a realistic person but how in the he$$ can you expect to acquire two recent top 10 picks without giving away one decent roster player. I like the players you named but that dont get you what your after delete and lock this up!!!!!

 

[Sota Popinski]

Wild got a lot of Championships to win with that future top d pairing I'd rather keep Schultz and Brass

Don't worry, you're gonna have to!

Flames hang up....

I think Nelson Muntz can explain Brad Treliving's respone to this trade offer.

You lose your 3C and a top 4dman and you get back a guy who will challenge Letang as your best D as soon as next year.

Hanifin gets traded to a big Canadian market, and all of a sudden everyone learns how to spell his name correctly! Wow!

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

The first trade is Horrible for Pittsburgh. Dumba is not that much better than Shultz. The second trade is closer but still in favor of Calgary

I've heard of a lot of homer quotes on here, but this one takes the cake.

I'd rather have the good 2C who is our 3C and Schultz, a good top 4 Dman, than just Dumba, I value depth. Pens are a win now team so the trade wouldn't make sense.

Underated comment right here

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

What am I reading? These are both awful.

You do know Calgary is hardly a big market right? Canadian =/= big.

Balances out the amount of individuals who cannot spell Monahan correctly I guess?

@OP

 

[McSuper]

Calgary takes it hard in the OP . Pens don't have the tradable assets to get these 2 D men from their respect teams .

 

[McSuper]

Hmmm...i like this concept of trading players not even in the league anymore

I offer Bobby Clarke for Evgeni Malkin (50% retained)

Gretzky to take Lucic contract while we are at it
