We all know we lack scoring.
C & LW being holes n all but can never have enough top ad prospects.
Tradeable & fetch good returns.
Make the right trades to change our look & we sit great at the draft

2018 potential D corp if stand pat or trades who knows...

Edler/Stecher
OJ/Tanev
Tryamkin/EG
Hutton,Sbisa,Brisebois

Looking at those &/or Liljgren I'd presume 1-2 D are traded.

exactly.

which brings us full circle back to E.Kane.

Tanev for Kane.

pick Liljgren in the draft.
- dbot

Surely there is a younger, less expensive 20 goal scorer we could get, especially if we are talking about moving Tanev.

Kane is from Vancouver.... do you think that would make it more likely he would behave or less?

Or honeslty... does it even matter?

Does Edmonton really need puljjarvi? Or would Tanev be more helpful? Maple leafs and Nylander? Or could they better use a Tanev? Buffalo and Sam Reinhart? Lots of options...don't need to saddle up to a walking disaster like Kane

All about his maturity level & it doesn't matter IMO

Idk we get our need either way then idc

Olsen & O'Neill also good prospects on D
We can trade from depth for a change.

I think there's a massive arguement to be made.

First of all, back then goalies were tiny, even with gear on, most didnt wear masks!! Scoring was WAY easier. Watch any old highlights, the goalies were like pylons. I recently re-watched some Summit Series games, even Dryden (who was considered a legend) looked like they grabbed some drunk, locksmith off the street and threw him in net, it was beyond pathetic.

Secondly, there were 12-16 teams, competition was nothing like it is nowadays. The game changes so much even from decade to the next. Some players back in late 60's, early 70's had day jobs!!! Its like saying Babe Ruth was the greatest of all time - its nuts, he was the greatest of HIS time, half the time he was hammered, yet he was facing some dude that just got off work in a coal mine and then headed over to the game to pitch. It was a joke.

Theres no doubt that Orr was a special player but to call him the best ever is hard to swallow. Put it this way, if Burns, Doughty, Weber were playing back then they'd destroy everyone, if Orr was playing now, i don't think he'd stick out. Different game, worlds apart. Incomparable.
- Brooks_Light

Back then they played for the love of the game not to get rich.

Offensively yes…defensively very doubtful.
- LordHumungous

We do have the third worst scoring from D

Gustav Nyqvist about to be suspended for 10 games for one of the worst high sticks I have ever seen today.


Marty McSorely Bad.

IF it was on hank he gets nothing.

I would love to have this guy!

The problem is not many teams are offering up 20 goal scorers. Especially the ones that are 25 years old.

Also the ones that are offering up ones want the sun and moon in return.

I watched forsling for the first time, he looks no different than Philip larson we not missing out on much with him.

Is his dream is to be a broke hockey player with hookers and a gambling debt?
