Lowry and Enstrom in 17-18 have a bigger impact on the team that year than Nick Suzuki would have this year. They were trying to win a cup, and keeping your best PK guy and the top shutdown D of that season helps you do that

Lowry was on the ice when Ryan Reaves scored the game winning goal in game 5.

Potential Laine deal to NJ.

To NJ: Patrik Laine

To WPG: PK Subban, #7, #18 & #20OA draft picks.

Next up: New York Islanders

No. Kopitar is in decline, and very expensive for a very long time
- Rexypoo

You would also be getting either Byfield or Stuttzle as well. Both those guys would be with the organization for a long time.

So was Connor Hellebuyck. Overrated. Trade him.

I read that as “20OA” for some reason. I’ll take Byfield and Kopitar for Laine

Potential Laine deal to NYI.

To WPG: Ryan Pulock, Jordan Eberle, 2021 first round draft pick

Next up: New York Rangers

No
- Rexypoo

C'mon Rexypoo, I was looking at the 2015 draft, which this years draft is being compared to. Players taken at those picks were really good.

2015 draft class:
#7 - Ivan Provorov
#10 - Mikko Rantanen
#17 - Kyle Connor
#20 - Joel Eriksson EK

Something to consider.

Potential Laine deal to NYR.

To NYR: Patrik Laine

To WPG: #1 Overall Pick

Next up: Ottawa

Potential Laine deal to Ottawa. This one was very hard.

To OTT: Patrik Laine

To WPG: Colin White, #5, #58 & #60 OA draft picks

Next up: Philadelphia

Potential Laine trade to Montreal.

To MTL: Patrik Laine

To WPG: Nick Suzuki, Max Domi, Joel Armia, #16OA pick

Next up: Nashville
- TheUltimateJet

Maybe not thrilled with some other trade scenarios, but don't mind this one.

Guess it depends on Jets thoughts on Suzuki. Looked good late in the season. Might have to add/change a little, but as a Jet fan, close. Unsure what Hab fans would think?

How was Vegas going to take both guys?

Oh I wouldn't make this deal - but do think that NJ, NYI, TB, CBS, Vegas and Phil are our best trading partners. Perhaps the Habs and Florida.

Isles, TB and NJ the favorites.

I guess quite a few, but would eliminate 22 teams.

I would love to have a podcast with you, me, Ultimate, and Ross
- Rexypoo

1st topic Adam Lowry
2nd topic couldn't get to it because you guys argued about Lowry for 2 hours and ended up losing your voices.

- BWJumper

Either or was worth more to us than the pick

I'll take my shot at this......

1 - NYR - Lafreniere
2 - LA - Byfield
3 - OTT - Stutzle
4 - DET - Perfetti
5 - OTT - Drysdale
6 - ANA - Rossi
7 - NJ - Raymond
8 - BUFF - Hotlz
9 - MINN - Lundell
10 - WPG - Jarvis

Pick 1-5 is not too much different than Grahamzky but no Sanderson in top 10. My question mark would be including Lundell in top 10 vs Sanderson. I believe there is a small drop off in talent after pick 8. I also think picks 1,4,5,and 6 are locks barring a trade messing things up. Picks 2 and 3 could reverse as well as 7 and 8.
- jetsnation

We'll have to check back to see how we fared with our picks against each other.

I know, I know, we don't need LH d-men, but do think, under your scenario, that the Jets pick J. Sanderson with 10th pick, too good, according to reports, to pass up.

I've made my decision with my list - taking the Swede, RW A. Holtz, with my #10 pick. Sounds like he is almost ready, Patrik's replacement if Roslovic doesn't pan out as hoped/expected.

The Jets wouldn't go off the board and pick C H. Lapierre would they? Injury prone but high end.

Anyone else wish to speculate/guess?

Potential Laine deal to NYR.

To NYR: Patrik Laine

I gotta laugh at this one because I suggested the same thing a few threads back and your response was that it was " a terrible idea ".

It is a terrible idea. But most likely the best trade we can get with the Blue shirts. We need center and d help now. NYR is not trading us Zibenajad and their D is crap.

I would do the deal though if there is another deal to be had based on this one.

Apparently not, or did I miss the parade in 2018.

See that TB is reported asking Tyler Johnson to waive his NTC.

So could it be Johnson and Cernak to the Jets for a prospect like Vesalainen? Or something along those lines?

TB need some immediate cap relief.

My guesses:
1 - NYR - Lafreniere
2 - LA - Stutzle
3 - OTT - Byfield
4 - DET - Perfetti
5 - OTT - Drysdale
6 - ANA - Rossi
7 - NJ - Sanderson
8 - BUFF - Raymond
9 - MINN - Lundell
10 - US - Quinn, Holtz or Jarvis

The Jet pick hinges on if Patrik gets traded. Like a 2nd pick in draft.

Your picks??? See who gets the most correct?
- grahamzky

Common, you have to make our pick to! Can’t take three. lol

I’ll play along though;

1 - NYR - Lafreniere
2 - LA - Byfield
3 - OTT - Stutzl
4 - DET - Raymond
5 - OTT - Askarov
6 - ANA - Drysdale
7 - NJ - Holtz
8 - BUFF -Sanderson
9 - MINN - Lundell
10 -WPG - Rossi (now do I honestly think he falls to us, not really but here’s hoping!!!!)

This is a strong possibility.

We could probably make a similar deal for Stastny from Vegas.

Johnson has not been good for a while, he is also now, only a winger and a small non physical one. He makes 5 million per for 3 or 4 more years. I say hard no!!!

NYR did not qualify Ryan Strome and if they can’t trade him (haven’t been able to yet) he may be worth a shot on a 1-2 year deal around 4 mil per. While hopefully our first round center in this years draft develops.

This is a strong possibility.

- TheUltimateJet

If we can’t get Cirelli I’d way rather gourde. Just no to Johnson, not what we need at all!! Seriously Copp is a much better option at 2nd center than Tyler Johnson is

Potential Laine trade to Montreal.

To MTL: Patrik Laine

To WPG: Nick Suzuki, Max Domi, Joel Armia, #16OA pick

Next up: Nashville
- TheUltimateJet

I’d take the Montreal deal.
Whether I like them or not, great job pumping these out!!!!
