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.
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
Nope. If Dumba is traded then we want a young top 6 center coming back.concur
the first deal is salvageable, possibly
2nd deal Calgary declines
Don't worry, you're gonna have to!Wild got a lot of Championships to win with that future top d pairing I'd rather keep Schultz and Brass
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.
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
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!
You do know Calgary is hardly a big market right? Canadian =/= big.Hanifin gets traded to a big Canadian market, and all of a sudden everyone learns how to spell his name correctly! Wow!

Hmmm...i like this concept of trading players not even in the league anymore
I offer Bobby Clarke for Evgeni Malkin (50% retained)
