Proposal: Sam Bennett (CGY) for David Pastrnak (BOS)

[CraigsList]

This thread needs to go.

Flames' Fans: "Sam Bennett doesn't fetch Pastrnak"

Others: "Sam ******* Bennett doesn't get Pastrnak"

Others": "Sam Bennett is a bust"

Flames' fans: "No he's not"

I don't understand this thinking at all. Obviously you're a Flames fan and you want your player to do well, but you discredit a player who put up 30 goals and 70 points because Marchand outscored him? While at the same time paint a hypothetical scenario where Bennett could surpass Pastrnak in value if everything goes well.

Bennett may very well have been a part of the Flames best line at one point but the argument you've made is a false equivalency, or could even be used to argue for Pastrnak who has more success in the NHL.

As it's been said many times in this thread, Calgary adds a fair bit if this is a deal they'd want to make.

As much as I love Bennett, if Pasta was ever on the table then the Flames should make that deal. But it wouldn't happen and I don't believe the Flames would add what the B's would ask.

But Pasta is a gem, that blend of skill, skating, playmaking ability, IQ, hands and that shot. IMO, he's a massive reason why Marchand did so well last season and he's a total driver. Pasta is one of my favourite players in the league.

Believe it or not Marchand and Pastrnak both drive the offense. Bergeron does it all but he was a bit crippled last season. Marchand has a lot of skill as well, it gels well with Pastrnak.

I never said he (Marchand) didn't. I think he's evolved into a world class player over team. I'm simply stating that by no means was Pasta a passenger. And I agree, they all compliment each other very well.

I was hoping this was from a year ago. How anyone can think this is a reasonable deal for Boston right now is insane.

I don't think a single person besides the OP has said it was. Thanks for your contribution.

You're talking to the biggest Flames homer around. Nuff said.

The poster you're quoting also thinks Gaudreau = McDavid and that Kylington has Karlsson 2.0 ceiling.

Personally, I would be willing to trade Brodie and Bennett for Pasta and a small plus. This sentiment is not shared by all flames fans but I think Brodie is our best trade chip.

 

[Ainsy01]

It would be just Brodie, not both. Maybe a small add like a mid rank prospect.

 

[Homesick]

Flames add Brodie

 

[Ainsy01]

Boston would ask for one of Gaudreau, Monahan, Tkachuk, Brodie, and rightfully so.

Anything else would be a low ball "spare parts" offer and would be rejected.

I'd think long and hard about a Brodie for Pasta deal as a base.

That was an interesting review, thanks.
Maybe in a couple more seasons, .Bennett gets back on track and W. Nylander takes a step back? Then we can revisit this thread.

"A closer poll would be Draisaitle vs Nylander."
Kinda ironic looking back on the thread.

As for the thread, there's no way I would ever move Pastrnak for anything short of a ridiculous overpayment, and Bennett is not that.

 

[Kale Hulls]

20 point player for a 70 point player? Really makes you think...

Not sure what you're on with this, not much to think about at all.

Me like brodie much

Bruin fans wouldnt like this proposal but their pro scouts and gm would

The plus from bruins would need to be value... something like zboril or lauzon or lingren...

But if i could get brodie and bennett for pastrnak and a kid id be all over that

 

[McSuper]

Sam Bennett is in nail yakupov territory. Calgary would add significantly.
Bennett, kylington, 1st round pick minimum.

As an Oiler fan 1st and a Flames fan 2nd you are just wrong on this
