Proposal: Jared Spurgeon to his Hometown

[ConnorMcMullet]

It’s not close to as good as the Jets.

Sharks, Flames, Bruins and Kings all have 2 defenseman better than the best Oilers dman.

Spurgeon > Trouba
Nurse = Morissey
Larsson > Byfuglien
Klefbom > Myers


And Chara and Muzzin are not better than Spurgeon.

Nurse = Morrissey? Nope. Larsson more impactful than Byfuglien? Nope.

This is nuts. Morissey is far better then nurse at this point, and Adam Larsson had like 10 points this year.

Hats off HailMcJesus: great proposal that gets a good discussion going.

Most Wild fans appear to overvalue Spurgeon, but that's because when you watch him on a regular basis, you realize how damn good of a defenseman he is. Number gazers on the stat sheets have no idea how effective he is, even against the big guys in the Western Conference.

He looks like a little boy, still, but he plays a smart 2 way defensive game.

That said, I think if I were the Wild GM, I would take that offer. The Wild are thin on prospects, and JP would be a nice add.

This pic always cracked me up - Spurgeon after his 1st goal. Prototypical NHL d'man there.
