Value of: Nolan Patrick

[SlapshotTheMovie]

Man this is a thread about the value of Nolan Patrick. We are on hfboards where everyone overvalues their own players. Why would I take that as a joke versus what you think is a fair offer for Nolan Patrick.

Not at all salty, but I'm also not the one who has now made 2 idiotic jokes in 1 thread.

Hmmm no one else seamed to think my offer was serious. Everyone else got that it was an idiotic joke. Not you though. SHould tell you something about yourself.

Are you a hockey fan or just a stat watcher? It’s obvious who has and hasn’t watched Patrick play. He’s obviously struggled a bit in his first two years but if you watched him play you would see the flashes of brilliance. In Patrick’s first season when they met the Pens in the playoffs, he was their best player. Give him time to adapt to the league before writing him off. I’m sure if he was a prospect of your team you would have a different opinion than the jealous one you hold now.

Huge fail here.

I have made two comments in this thread, go back and read them, slower this time if you are failing reading comprehension.

You know nothing of what you're talking about by projecting my opinion with no evidence that I have ever made that argument. Then you go further to project feelings onto a non-existent argument of mine.

I never said a thing about him being a bust. If you do your research, quite the opposite.

Moreover, the post you quote merely states that MacKinnon did not struggle when he came into the league the way Patrick has done. That is clear.

Gaudreau for Patrick & Konecny

Gaudreau for Patrick & Konecny

Flyers need Centers, not wingers. This trade only works if we somehow sign Duchene and Frost is able to immediately step in as a 3C, and im less than comfortable assuming at least one of those is true.

 

[gearharb]

Let Philly keep him until he busts out then just get him as a 3C in free agency. No point in trading assets for him.

We do have another Johnson. But yes, Jack Johnson (3rd overall 2005).

Right. You understand that is fourteen years ago, right? And that Jack Johnson is not worth anywhere close to the 2nd overall from two years ago?

Deal, no takebacks.

That ain't happening.

How far off is RNH for Patrick.

Dont think the edmonton fans will like that one. I'm not particularly sold on it either, and I like RNH a good bit.

impressive bump.

Wait so you wouldn't do that? My goodness.

you know you need centers to play center, right? At the time, after that trade, Couturier would have been our only center on the roster. Winning value doesnt mean you win the trade.

Same sentiment. To whomever that was then.


But hey!!!! The flyers have like nine centers, so who wants to make a deal!

Gaudreau for Patrick & Konecny

That's honestly not too far off. Would consider it for Gaudreau.

I think a gaudreau deal would need to start with couturier.

 

[Deen]

I think a gaudreau deal would need to start with couturier.

I don't think they will give up Coots though. The reason I think it is a good deal is because they are both cost controlled and you hope Patrick breaks out. Konecny is like a young Frolik.

Kopitar for Patrick + 1st

TheFlyers have their version of Kopitar. Except ours costs 4.33 million a season.

Flyers have a #1 LW in Giroux.

I think a gaudreau deal would need to start with couturier.

Great idea. Then the Flyers can have Hayes as their #1 C!



It's real simple. Fletcher is trying to add Hayes to ADD to the Flyers C depth. It's the only spot they did not have 2nd line production from. They are not looking to "replace" Patrick.....or Couturier.

Now it's on Patrick to prove he can be a consistent scoring C with good defense. He has paced for 50+ points over 2-3 months before. He needs to do it for a whole season. At least if he doesn't, the Flyers possibly have a backup option in Hayes.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

He honestly reminds me of Andre Burakovsky. Both big kids with rare offensive gifts that don't use the body as well as they could and are dripping with talent. Both have the ability to dominate or disappear entirely depending on the night. Patrick is younger and plays center and likely has a higher upside at this point; if I was Philly I'd definitely hold onto him barring serious overpayment. If the light ever comes on for him then look out.

We wouldn't trade Couturier 1 for 1 for Gaudreau.

 

[kilowatt]

And you wouldn’t want a second? Kopitar and Couturier would be an insane 1-2 punch.
