Just saw some guy named Grigorenko wants to come back to the NHL. Maybe he could play center.

Hard fought to get a 1st for a guy that is on pace for 60 goals? Gaustad got a 1st....

Prices of rentals are going down. I’m not saying that it’s impossible to get a first, but it might only be a first. Not a first and a A+ prospect.

If Roman josi doesn’t score on his own net in Nashville and Skinner taps in the puck in the crease as he was about to, Skinner and Eichel would be on 10 game point streaks. Reinhart’s goal was unassisted due to the own net goal.

Didn’t Vegas give up a 1st, 2nd, and a 3rd for Tatar last year?

Nash did garner a first but he was the only one. Skinner could get back a 1st, not saying it’s impossible, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a team’s top prospect and a few draft picks 2nd round and beyond. This years draft is supposedly deeper then last years. But Skinner could be the rental that garners a first like Nash did last year.

six first rounders where traded at the deadline last year..... Kane, McDonagh / miller, Tatar, Stastny,Hartman, Nash.


I'd say there's no way you wouldn't get at least one first rounder... and NONE of those guys had 40 goals...

Kane was conditioned on him signing so I wouldn’t count that in the rental market. Only Stastny and Nash got 1st rounders. Both were acquired by teams that were cup contenders. Winnipeg, Nashville, Calgary, Toronto, Tampa, Boston, SJS (2021 is earliest) could cough up a first rounder for Skinner. If Botts decides to not deal with Toronto, Tampa, Boston then you would have four teams in a bidding war if any of them would want Skinner.

1 first


2 for Jack
1 for Sam
2 for Dahlin
Maybe 1 for Risto

Gives us 11 or 12 firsts in the next 2 years to do the rebuild right this time

incorrect... 6 first traded hands at the deadline.

(3) The Winnipeg Jets have acquired Paul Stastny from the St. Louis Blues. St. Louis gets a 2018 first-round pick, a 2020 fourth-round pick and prospect Erik Foley.

(4) The Nashville Predators have acquired RW Ryan Hartman and a 2018 fifth-round pick from the Chicago Blackhawks. Chicago gets a 2018 first-round pick , a 2018 fourth-round pick and F Victor Ejdsell.

(5)The Boston Bruins have acquired LW Rick Nash from the New York Rangers. New York gets a 2018 first-round pick, C Ryan Spooner, LW Matt Beleskey, D Ryan Lindgren and a 2019 seventh-round pick.

(6) The Tampa Bay Lightning have acquired Ryan McDonagh and J.T. Miller from the New York Rangers in exchange for forward Vladislav Namestnikov, forward Brett Howden, defenseman Libor Hajek, a 2018 first-round pick and a conditional second-round pick.
