So you constantly fall over AND can't carry the play.

Emp is like an addict. Once that notification bell starts showing red numbers they turn into a fiend.

Everyone quote him at once so he'll have a dozen notifications!

Don't worry, I'll go back into the Pirates and Steelers threads after the trade deadline until the draft

I like how Vancouver fans were screaming about how Lekkerimaki was not available for a rental Guentzel, but the Penguins getting a 1st and Othmann is somehow "underwhelming".

Lek and Willander are on quite a few top 10-15 prospect lists, Othmann is closer to 50. The gap is substantial

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Bunting, Pono, another + for Smith and Guentzel.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Bunting, Pono, another + for Smith and Guentzel.

That's a hard pass.

 

[Gurglesons]

Bunting, Pono, another + for Smith and Guentzel.

At this point if we get anything for Guentzel, I'll be happy!

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

That's a hard pass.

oh its happening.

[dracom]

Pls wait until tomorrow so we got at least one big trade for the actual tdl

So apparently getting the 15th ranked prospect for a rental is insanity, but getting the 45th ranked prospect for a rental is underwhelming?

Yeah, Othmann isn't as good as Lekkerimaki. But he's still clearly a B+ prospect that is very uncommonly moved for a rental.

 

[Ugene Magic]

oh its happening.

About 2:00 am in your dreams.

B level prospects get moved quite often, if the main piece of Guentzel is a B level prospect…. That’s not good

That's not a good offer, but I do think Ponomarev is better than Othmann. Maybe Pono, Morrow, 1st, 2nd, Heimosalmi for Guentzel and Smith.

When was the last prospect of Othmann's caliber that was moved for a rental?

Calling him a B prospect is just crazy disingenuous unless you think Scott Morrow (53rd on Wheeler's list) is a "B prospect" too.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Here comes Smith...

 

[Face Of Bear]

must be something big coming
