No thanks. Dunno what Manson has done to get that type of package in return?

Borgen could be our 2nd best RHD as early as next season.
- Jammerz04

manson is a beast

I would not move borgen for him, but there is not much I wouldn't move for manson

with manson, risto, borgen

it's a solid group of RD for the next 10 years

Manson is MUCH better than Bogo,
and (IMO) a perfect fit as Dahlin’s future defense partner
That’s why I’d target him
Also... bc hes a “defensive” defenseman, he’ll never cost us a whole lot on the Cap


And Nylander’s status as a good prospect is fading
But if Botts still believes in him, then u keep Nylander and sub in another prospect (Olofsson? Asplund? etc etc)
Moving him would fall under the assumption that we don’t think he’s gonna be a legit Top6 guy

Nylander is also a “playmaker”
Not quite the goal scoring winger type we need to add
So idk if he even fits all that well going forward with us?

And if he isn’t a “fit”
Then we should absolutely explore trading him while he still has some value

Trouba would make our D-Corps the best in the East once Dahlin and Pilut enter their primes.

Dahlin-Trouba
Pilut-Risto
Samuelsson/McCabe-Borgen/Laaksonen/Nelson

He is an RFA at years end and has twice requested trades out of Winnipeg. Jets are in a cap crunch too.

trouba is a few notches above manson

imagine that, bolts looking for 4th line center

Can you add conditional
PlYers to a trade like draft picks hahA?

We have 6

I'll give them 4 for a 2RW. They can return the ones they don't like

I brought it up a few weeks ago, and the game of throne wanna be, had a jab at me


side note, kings want to stand pat right now and see what happens this week before they move 1 or more bigger pieces up front

Still bores me.

But “GoT wannabe” is a good one.

I'm not inclined to give Housley the benefit of the doubt on personnel decisions. He (frank)s em up all the time.

He’d also cost a lot more to acquire than Manson
AND
have a much bigger Cap hit

he is no better in year 2 behind the bench then when he was a rookie last year

the d has only slightly improved


his game management, decisions, I think a monkey could do just as good

a monkey only has a 1 in 3 chance to come back with the 4th line after you score a goal to get within 1 at home

If the team ends up with 87 points, they'll have had a 25 point improvement from last year, and yet Phil did a bad job?

I’ll hit you with the same response you sent to me yesterday. Do you want to be good like St.Louis’, Rangers’, or Habs of the past 10 years. Or do you want to be great ? Trouba makes us great.

Sabres have to go 15-7-5 to hit 96 points. Safe to say if they don’t win 4 of their next 6 before the deadline that we should SELL, SELL, SELL.

- Pegullaville

I guess if u think he’s the missing piece,
then you go after him

BUT...
what extra assets does he cost?
AND...
it’s an extra 4mil? in Cap Room we won’t have to work with- that’s significant

Trouba on his own doesn’t make us great
Still more pieces to add
That extra 4mil would help

- kingcong39

if they end up with 87 points, Phil, aka Phail will be the main reason they did not make the playoffs

???????????????????

after next season only eichel, okposo, dahlin, risto and hutton are under contract


botts has room to do whatever he wants to mold this team


30 mil in cap space for next season, skinner, mccabe- e rod - and ullmark need to be signed

- homiedclown

They won’t be the only ones under contract though

Re-signing Skinner
Sam will cost
Mitts will cost
Dahlin is gonna cost
What are the others up front we add gonna cost?
Stone? Hayes? Dzingel?

We do have Cap room to do stuff
But that doesn’t mean we can do EVERYTHING

How about a big, mobile RhD with a meanstreak who is willing to stick his nose in the middle of a dance to protect linemates.
Wonder what they would pay for that?

I would expect the great one to have more goals then busthart

If Getzlaf is available you absolutely make a play for him.

- jcragcrumple

So you're saying he uses and believes in extreme advanced stats...good to know

Completely unrealistic post ahead.

Offseason moves, again, completely unrealistic.

Sign Karlsson to 10 * 7
Sign skinner to 7.75 * 7
Trade Scandella for scraps
Trade sobodka for scraps
Trade Hunwick for Scraps
Risto for Huberdeau
Okposo, Nylander, 1st, 3rd for Kovy, Toffoli

Skinner - Eichel - Reinhart
Huberdeau - Mitts - Toffoli
Kovy - xxxx - Sheary
Erod - Girgs/Larsson - Thompson

Dahlin- Karlsson
McCabe - Bogo
Pilut - Nelson
Guhle

If Getzlaf is available you absolutely make a play for him.
- dadeadhead

agreed

I brought him up 2 weeks ago


everyone pissed on the thought

Not me. El Paso.

Great player but not for what we have going on.
