So the pick can improve or its a 5th or nothing?
- Bieksa#3

5th becomes nothing if we don't sign him, I think.
Becomes a 4th is l if he gets a number of points.

I didn't complain. I researched his stats. I complained that the direction of the team is a mystery. We list a sale, making us all believe we are sellers, but we are dishing away picks. Benning says the rebuild begins with drafting and developing and then he uses future picks. I did not complain once about the trade as this could be a steal for a offensive d man. Read myfull posts

it was a fifth, for a guy with some upside and NHL XP. Seems like a good move to me. I don't buy that he wont be trading for picks, not very consistent with wanting to draft and develop guys.

What happens if he turns into the next Ehrhoff?

We chase him out of town?

I get that ,but do you think Shink was going to replace Sven or Danny in the next three years?
- VANTEL

I hadn't thought that far ahead. Lots can change in 3 years..

This part makes no sense, remember the holes MG left.

Gillis gave up draft picks for rentals.

Benning is giving up draft picks for Players that we will have for a couple of years

Bastos talaga

They are still draft and developing. Boeser Demko Gaunce and this years pick. Plus guys like Neill Subban Brisebois Cassels and so on and so on.
- VANTEL

Preaching drafting and developing and then trading prospects and picks goes against what they are telling people Is all. I trust benning and staff know more than myself and the people on these boards so I will continue to trust him it's just hard to buy into the direction they promise people when it seems to change all the time

I prefer Dale Tallons system.

Compare our roster now from three years ago. 3 years can seem like an eternity. Tons can happen in 3 years

He's a smart gm

Minus bolland contract

You're one of those "special" exceptions
- MaximumBone

So hammer said he hasnt been asked.... and the list of available doesnt include him. Both in line.

So why does he need to talk to his wife about options then? Not consistent.

Unless its in case there is a last day decision Im guessing

They have bad contracts too.

If we get a lottery pick and Draft Laine things will look a lot brighter. I think we get a top 7 pick this year

well done! Thats about correct

We let him walk at the end of the deal, he signs a big ticket contact with edmonton and gets bought out 2 years in, or do you mean if he turns Edler into an all star?

If it's the second then Bullfrog stops posting until we trade Larson. ..

we're in the same ball park
- Dozzer

we really arent, we havent been gifted 4 years worth of 1OA

Eshhh, the way this fanbase treats Edler, Carle is liable of being shanked in the parking-lot post game.

Will be 32 at the start of next season, 5.5 mil until 2018, 2pts and minus -5 this season in 44 games.

At that rate, they ought to be giving us a pick

That's why i said and a pick.......he is a straight cap dump to make deal work

If he molds ekblad into the next doughty than maybe not
