I don’t understand why they picked Vegas of all places on top of it.
Hahs funny! Minnesota would never! Kerfoot wouldn't play 1st or 2nd c on wild team next year
Not one proposal from Anaheim or the Kings on there. And Garrioch is rumoring we are going to be the most active

People like this are leeches. If you don't want to pay for it, stay out of the thread instead of asking others to pay for it instead
The thing I hate about this is the use of anonymous executives.
I'm fine with the anonymity, but executives have a broad range of job titles.
You can be an NHL executive and still have little clue about the players on the team.

I’m pleasantly surprised. I think Puljujarvi holds the value of a pick in the 40-50 range. So early/mid 2nd + 3rd for JGP seems fair.
I’d do it as an Oil fan. Love JGP’s game. I know the write up says the Sens would like to extend him and at some point they need to bring players back, but there’s an easy solution to that - make any JGP trade contingent on inclusion of a conditional 2021 1st (if JGP is extended by the team acquiring him). Guarantees the Sens get a crack at him July 1st.
Yeah, there's a blurb for each, except for the Vatanen offer, because the exec sees it as reasonable. Here's one, for example: "I don’t think Columbus would do that. I would also say that if they got the right player they might move (Werenski). I don’t think Alex Tuch is the right player. I think they would want a top-two line center if they’re going to move Werenski, although that would have been more likely last summer, especially now that they’ve got Werenski in a (salary cap) number that is reasonable too. I think Columbus says no but they’d have to talk about it. I think Werenski has too much upside without getting a big need back."

6. The New York Rangers send goalie Alexandar Georgiev and a third-round pick to Toronto for Kasperi Kapanen and a second-round pick
***
On the Leaf's board some of them think Kapanen might fetch Parayko . . . wait until they see this.
Kapanen for Mayfield and a 2nd seems closer. Georgiev and a 2nd for Kapanen alone is closer in value to me.

Don’t bother posting sections from the article. They’ll just be removed. They have it behind a paywall for a reason.
Also, you'll be removed from the thread if you continue to complain about said paywall.

If Jason Botterill could pull off Mittelstadt for Hertl straight up, they would need to give him another award on top of GM of the year.
Wait, what Buffalo fans were suggesting that Mittelstadt for Hertl straight up was fair?

A. You can read the article. Go register a free account and you'll get 3 free articles per month
B. Even if you can't, several of us are subscribers and can.
C. The proposed trades themselves can still be discussed without reading the article.
Had this quote in my clipboard to paste in here. Thought it was pretty insightful and you could just apply it to almost any trade proposal on HF.
too bad for you that you think yes/no is the valuable part. the joy is in the journey my friend, not the destination.

No, Buffalo fans don’t think that is a remotely close to fair deal. Some have mentioned Hertl as a potential target but more in line with a package around Mitts, Montour and a 1st with some protection on it.
Just say no to this idea
