So the problem is that you have no idea about Campbell's game. He is better defensively than MacDonald.

You act like he knows how to throw a hit or something. Name 1 time he's ever thrown a big hit.

I wanted Trouba. I never said anything about Bogo/Kane.
- jmatchett383


You replied to a post about Kane/Bogo so I assumed that was what the offer you drew up was in regards to.

The Panthers intend on making their decision on whether or not to trade the pick before they get to the Draft floor...so, likely before 5pm.

My question:

If you're going to move BSchenn Coburn Hagg 17th overall and a 2nd in next years deep draft do you want Kane/Bogo or do you want OEL and cap room to sign a LW?

I mean that offer isnt that far off from what Nashville wanted for Weber. We dont want Kane that badly.

- hereticpride

i probably wouldnt move OEL for that

Yes. I said I'd rather not go for either and overpay to try to pry Trouba out. Think I was fairly explicit in saying that, but might not have been.

FWIW, Florida was dead last in PK% last year.
- jmatchett383


Their goalies only being able to stop 85% of shots SH might have something to do w that.

Is there a chance of players being traded after being picked and/or traded?

For Umberger's safety, Soupy needs to be made an ally.

But does the quality of shots allowed by the defense affect that as well?

- Feanor



What did I get wrong in his game? His game is on the offensive side? He isn't a shutdown dman. He's got a cap hi of 7million. He is over 35. We are currently trying to move Vinny who's cap hit is 4.5 so why do i want to bring on another older player with a higher cap hit? To move MacDonald for Campbell just isn't something i want.

I don't want them to do anything like that -- why does anyone feel like risking a young player whose only real crime is being inconsistent, the team's best defenseman on an amazing contract, a defense prospect who we were lucky to get in the second round a year ago and a first-round pick for Winnipeg's problems or just one asset in return is the best play here?

Opening holes all over the roster...I just don't feel that is the way to win.

I think people were saying move Vinny as well, which actually gets you cap savings and less years.

Just because he kills penalties on a terrible team doesn't mean he is a good PK guy.
They are a team with 2 experienced D men, one of whom stopped be jovocop years ago and then they have a guy in kulikov that will be good and get better going forward. everyone else is wet behind the ears, so Campbell MUST play in all situations for them.

I think I'd cream my pants if we really got Campbell for Vinny + Amac

Am I the only one who actually wants Ho-Sang? 17 may be early but if he's there in the 2nd round and we pass I'm not going to be too happy.
