Rick "I'm better than Kessel" Nash
- Unholy_Goalie

I wouldn't say that. Nash has played longer, but his production has fallen off since 08-09. In the beginning of his career you could argue that without retort, not any more.

I agree. I'd rather the current Kessel than the current Nash.

Good afternoon all. What's up?
- Domaju

Canada is down 2-0 to Finland....

Potential?

So we trade a guy thats a 22 yo #5 overall pick,a nd a 30 goal scorer from a year ago, for a guy with no experience and worse numbers than Reimer..

WHY????
- mfreedman

But wait! There's more! For the additional cost of a 2nd round pick...

YOU COULD GET RICK NASH!

Call now!

No and no!!!!!!!!

hey LM! hows things today?

Canada is down 2-0 to Finland....



- robin_steele264

All Canada, no Finish...

Canada is down 2-0 to Finland....

That sucks. I saw Kazakhstan almost beat the US today, that would have been the upset of the century lol...too bad it didn't happen. Although, the fact that the US has lost to Slovakia is pretty embarrassing in it's own right.

Why do you all keep going to where he was picked? How does a players current performance have anything to do with where he got picked?

And Kuli has only ever scored 30 once...so if that will be your definition of a 30 goal scorer I'd say it's flawed. A 30 goal scorer in my books is someone you can depend to get 30 consistently....like a Kessel...

EDIT: And the reason why I like Lindback is that I think given his frame and size, he'd do very well under Allaire's style.

Slovakia is pretty good.

Just pay Shipping & Handling.
- LeafMan

Just pay SEPARATE shipping and handling.

I don't think you would. But you should if he does.
- Unholy_Goalie

yeah.. not to mention room needs to be made on the marlies this year...

so yeah, too many good points against signing penner. agreed.

Slovakia is pretty good.
- robin_steele264

If Canada lost to Slovakia you're saying it wouldn't be embarrassing?

Logan's Run theory again,
- LeafMan

Logan?

Oh gawd forget penner....we dont need more crap...we have enough.
When you say 180..do you mean a 180 from how they played up until Feb or a 180 from how they played the last 20 games?
- Fakepartofme

a 180 would be staying consistantly competitive for an entire season

yeah.. not to mention room needs to be made on the marlies this year...

so yeah, too many good points against signing penner. agreed.
- Dozzer

You need some big bodies in the lineup. We were pushed around way to much this year....especially after the all star break when teams started to clog up the neutral zone and play playoff style hockey.

- Dozzer

Penner? Really? That idea's still being tossed around? I'd say pass on that for sure.

I agree. I'd rather the current Kessel than the current Nash.
- Domaju

Kessel also had cancer early in his career which takes a lot of wind out of your sail.

hey LM! hows things today?
- Dozzer

Hey Dozzer, long morning with work, want to have a nice weekend with the family, Avengers movie tonight with them, then it's all about "mommy" Saturday and Sunday, lol.

How about you?

Just pay Shipping & Handling.

Offer valid only while supplies last.

Limited time offer.

That is true for sure. But I don't want Penner as the "muscle" we lack.

Why don't you take a break from your bullpoop bashing and actually provide an answer....

What do you think is Nash's price point?

- Unholy_Goalie

Looks like people are divided on how much time we need to develop some players and prospects, vicious circle.

That is true for sure. But I don't want Penner as the "muscle" we lack.
- Domaju

He was my second option if Nash or JVR can't be had via trade...

i dont disagree.. however.. we have five.. oh wait.. now 6 new guys vying for spots on the marlies.. so.. room will have to be made.. a straight up FA signing probably is a bad idea all around
