Hah
In particular Lundkvist, Robertson, Schneider, Jones
I have zero doubt of any of these guys being good NHL D. More then likely in their careers they will be Top 4 D or better in the NHL.. what’s scary is each and every one can be a top 2-3 D. Right now those 4 guys are fighting for 2 spots. I have no doubt we are trading 1 but more then likely 2. It makes me physically sick to lose 1 because as a NYR fan we have lacked top end talent on D forever.
if Jones turns into the next fox or similar player in the mold of fox- enough said
Schneider 6”3-6”4 with at mean streak at one 215 lbs and has untapped offensive potential. Can be looking at trading a beast.
Robertson is another big boy at 6”4 over 200. He’s going to be a shutdown monster. Positionally sound and gets physical when he needs to. Moves the puck well. My comp would be maybe a lil meaner version of Marc Staal with better offensive if he hits max potential. Staal was elite shutting down OVI and Crosby in the playoffs for year until injuries killed his career.
Lundkvist another all around excellent D that has Top pairing upside. Has a laser beam for a shot and is an excellent Defender. Fresh off a record setting season against men.
Losing 2 of them is going to blow unless the trade Miller which would suck too
HM is Gauthier. Kid has size, speed, and decent hands. Sucks that we might lost him for nothing, he just can’t get s string of games together playing with decent talent. He goes to the net, is good a long the boards I think he can be a 20/20 guy in the right situation for cheap money. He doesn’t go around plastering people although physically he can. It’s just not his game. But like I said potential to be A Big Fast 20/20 Rw

I think Schneider is safe because he brings an element we need. I'm just worried that we're going to give up a stupid amount for Eichel.

Who's the clown?
Chytil, who is emerging and struggled due to injury, yes
Buch not really struggling.
I like Filip's upside more.

will be a HUGE mistake if they trade any of these bluest blue chip elcs
until we know what we have in Jones, we should
sell high on Zib, Strome and Buch
sign Danault 7.25 but only 1-2 yrs
have a third line w/Kreider-Danault-Jones
kid has offense to play W
and can be emergency/reserve D here and there
Kreider looks like he's nursing some kind of injury
Foolishly, we have made our thoroughbred be our consistent only go to guy in front of the crease and he's gotten beaten up from taking that duty on exclusively.
Kreider has most of the physical gifts and with the right linemates ...
have always wondered what he'd be like on a line w/McD + MacKinnon at RW; beyond scary.

I dont think it would be more then we offered for him already. We know LaF wasn’t in deal. If anything Eichel’s value isn’t as high as it was a month ago. Injuries are certainly a question, plus it seems he grows more angry with Sabres Org. Only a matter of time before he publicly asks out IMO

Kappo Kakko.
I fully believe Quinn kept him and Laf on a short leash till he felt they could play regular minutes and not be a defensive liability. One progressed quicker than the other which is fine by me. We're talking a year between very young kids playing versus older men.
That cavit aside, Kakko the last month looked almost like the kid that dominated his peers in his draft year. You could see the talent all the pundits salivate over starting to become more prevailing, for longer stretches of shifts and minutes and a consistent game by game basis.
If he doesn't break out after next preseason, it wouldn't surprise me if he goes soup to nuts after the Christmas break.
NYR will be sorry if they bounce this kid for expensive "Star" talent somewhere else in the line-up.

yes, conditionally
Key here is ONLY 1 yr, 2 max, no NMC limited ntc
w/those conditions then yes, up to 7.25 per
takes 2 yrs of his prime, not on the hook for him at 30 yrs +
I don't really want to lose Travis Dermott but if it happens, it happens it happens, the closest answer I have is Rielly

As an Islanders fan I'd be terrified of trading Devon Toews due to cap problems. That would be horrible and really worsen our 2nd pairing. He may have made a lot of boneheaded mistakes against TB but who doesn't? I sure hope he isn't a cap casualty. I'm especially terrified of trading him to a team that's built on speed where he could really could shine.
That’s pretty much the only way I see it as well. Kid can become a top 2 D in the mold of Adam Fox if he pans out. Rangers would look very stupid if they didn’t get a premier piece back for him at that happens.
He’s got a cannon for a shot too. He’s going to score a lot of goals in the NHL. I think him and Dahlin would be an excellent top pair for years to come. That’s what you hope he becomes, a corner stone player. If the Sabres did deal with the rangers, they would be foolish not to ask that he be included

I respect your opinion on here I’m just curious as to what I’m missing when watching Jones? He seems to lack hockey sense and is always running around.
