Value of: Gaudreau

[McSuper]

Chris Kreider, Nils Lundkvist & Alexandar Georgiev

One of the worst offers on here . A soon to be American UFA who like bolds and 2 throw ins . Yup Chia would be all over this but Chia isn't the Flames GM

 

[RalphKing]

For Calgary, a Gaudreau for Couturier 1 for 1 is their wet dream. I doubt Philly has interest in this though.

What if the Devils take Frolik with Gaudreau - what more would have to happen?

Base of the deal being:

NJ:
Gaudreau
Frolik

Calgary:
Hall (no extension)

Im thinking the Devils still add - but what?

Frolik's deal ends after this season, taking him in the deal doesn't do much for the Flames.

RNH for Monahan .

Is it? Gadreau had 99 points, and he got those points driving his line.

Nils Lundkvist is a throw in? Lol

Nils Lundkvist is a throw in? Lol

For Gaudreau, yes

 

[Double Dion]

RNH for Monahan .

Setting aside value for a second. Monahan is signed for 2 more years than RNH. No way the Flames trade 4 years for 2 years. Add in that Monahan is 2 years younger and way more productive and you have a very lopsided trade.

Hall, Zacha, and Butcher

Throwing in Hanifin is just greedy for an UFA...

I posted this in a different thread:


To CGY:

Hall (50% retained)
Misyul
Zacha
Coleman
Conditional 1st if Hall doesn't resign (maybe even model it after the Karlsson deal and offer more than 1 potential first).

To NJD:

Gaudreau
Jankowski
Parsons
Rieder
3rd


Why would NJD do this?

If they can't keep Hall...they get a bit younger with their star player, they maintain a star player instead of trading for picks/prospects. That has to be of interest. Gaudreau is a hometown kid. They do lose a bit of strength amongst their depth for doing this. They also add a goalie prospect who's struggled in Stockton but has some pedigree. It's one of their weakest organizational positions if not the worst. And they add a pick.

Why would CGY do this?

They also trade for a hometown kid, but vastly improve their depth while still maintaining a star player. I think this trade makes them soooo much better. I think Zacha would be a great fit on the flames, especially adding a strong defensive presence down in the lineup and Coleman adds grit and skill. Getting Hall retained offers huge cap flexibility for this season that very few competing teams have.

Thoughts? I'm a fan of neither team.

I get HF likes to hate on the kid but man, most of these offers are straight up insulting. Guy is very nearly point per game for his career and is signed for under 7 million for this season and two more. That is a rare and valuable player.

Not like I expected much but cmon, do better.

But but wet dream to want a guy like Couturier back... shocking takes. Couturier is good but we’re talking about a PPG Player in Johnny. Funny how 20 games of mediocre flames play and Johnny has low value.... he’s still 18 points with an underachieving team so far this year.

Just for fun:

Pens:Gaudreau

Flames: Matt Murray+1st+prospect of choice

The Flames don’t need goaltending.

Flame fans incredibly think we have to add to Couts to get Gaudreau....I wouldn't do Couts even for Gaudreau....no way.....

[Hunter368]

JG + Hamonic for Sheifele

No thx, that doesn’t help the Jets in anyway.

 

[wintersej]

The thing is, Calgary wants a 1 for 1 swap. We don't want quantity for an almost career PPGer.

And this is why these threads generally go no where. 1 for 1 deals for star players maybe happen with forward in exchange for defense... but that isn't what the Flames need.

 

[Deen]

Kuznetsov for Johnny. Kuz had his booger sugar issues/Gaudreau feeding Ovechkin would be amazing.

Right, and I don't even see Johnny getting dealt until the 2020 offseason. More teams are inclined to trade player for player during the offseason when cap isn't as much of an issue.

A good coach doesn't disrupt his locker room.

I don't think the value is that far off 1 for 1 but I think the Flames would need to add

 

[Devonator]

I do agree the value is fairly close....but certainly the Flyers do not need to add....a one for one swap is fairly decent...though again I want nothing to do with Johnny....he folds like a cheap suit when the going gets tough...even some Flame fans admit this.....

They both play LW
