Speculation: Roster Building Thread - Part XXXII

[Thirty One]

Nobody thinks this is a good idea except GG & Georgiev.

This was a no brainer Shesty game, W T F

I would rather have seen Shesterkin, but I care zero about Georgiev's GAA in two previous games against Carolina.

 

[Pawnee Rangers]

Maybe he thinks the team relied on Igor too much last game and knows they have to play better, regardless of who's in net.

Of course it's the night I'm going to the game too.

God dammit, Gallant.

He's going for the "bank two easy points by playing your better goalie against the weaker opponent."

 

[mas0764]

I freakin knew it.

built in excuse. Terrible decision

This would be a nice full-team measuring stick night. F'n stupid.

 

[mas0764]

If the Canucks agreed to Lundkvist and the Blues 2nd for Miller, I make that trade
without hesitation.

Pass.

But if they are interested in Lundkvist I'll add to him to find out the price on Pettersson.

I had the pleasure of attending the opening night game in DC, so suck it up and take your medicine. At least Georgiev is playing well lately.

Both Friedman and Marek saying today on 32T that they've both heard NYR are in on Chychrun.

Say NYR are preparing to "do something". Want a D and F. Both "Drury and Dolan" are in on this season.

Marek floats Debrusk and Reilly Smith.

Debrusk? Really? No thanks.

I'd take Louie to replace Joe on MSG.

The rub here is you can get 100c on the dollar when you trade for a rental. A long term top 6 young C is likely to cost 150c to 250c on the dollar, which is a lot harder to stomach.

That's not harder to stomach. That is the impossible to fill void.

Why pay 100c now and 100c later and then have nothing to show for it?

Just pay 200c or 250c now and fill the need for 5-7 years and be done with it.

If you're willing to empty the clip on a 24-26 year old 50-60 point C you can probably do that, but at what cost? It's not gonna be Nils, Edstrom, and a 2nd. It's gonna be 4 "prime" pieces. You willing to trade that for a Bo Horvat?

How about Nils, Kravtsov, a first and a second? Can I get someone who is going to be a 1C someday, better than Horvat?

I'm looking at the Eichel deal.

Yeah, that's exactly how we should be spending these pieces.

Once we have that situation all resolved, then we can go trading excess first round picks for rentals. Until then, I might need that pick.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Carolina needs to acquire Lias so they will have all four pieces from that trade.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Huge game but likely wont catch it live.

Gonna be up in Saratoga at a lake house for the weekend with some buds and it will probably get very sloppy

Please, no pictures.

 

[mas0764]

In before the Geo shuts out the Canes.

Let's hope so; then we can get a haul at the deadline for him.

 

[duhmetreE]

I hope and pray Geo shuts them out... because if he gives up his infamous back breaker softies, this place will implode.
