Provost Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share Posted August 12, 2012 I never said that, I said trading Schroeder would, I didn't say anything about what we would get in return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRocket18 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 To consider Hansen as a core piece of the roster is silly. He is a decent and useful utility guy... but guys like him are a dime a dozen and easily replaceable. Hansen is not a dime a dozen player... Players like hansen are not so easily obtained... imo.

nd84 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Your Florida trade is similar to mine and I think it makes more sense honestly considering FLA shed some cap with Upshall. He can be very good on the 3rd line for us. Like the other poster, I believe we should get a pick in return as well, perhaps a first or 2nd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 You responded to a trade in which we got Bjugstad and sent out Schroeder by saying that it would wreck our future... if you were unable to comprehend the entirety of the aspects of the post and be able to realize that the trade actually improved our prospect pool, then that is your failing and not mine.

Standing_Tall#37 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Don't want upshall, him and Kesler have a past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share Posted August 12, 2012 All I'm saying is that I would rather not have Schroeder in the deal, I was looking at the deal as a whole, and saying I would rather give up those pieces without Schroeder to get Bjugstad. Your looking at it as a one for one thing, when that's not what it is. That's what I mean, you have to rememeber the entire offer, one for one it would be good but I would rather do it without Schroeder in the deal then it makes it that much better in the future.

Provost Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share Posted August 12, 2012 Just get Bjugstad and a 1st for a Luongo package. Kassian seems ready to step up his game and if Doan and Arnott sign, our 2012-2013 season is set. Once the Summer hits, we will have options on how to get younger and bigger.

Smashian Kassian Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 If that is what you meant, it is clearly not what you said... you ignored the entirety of the trade and said that our future would be ruined. In fact with Ellerby and Bjugstad we would have two great players for the future. Here is an example of what the conversation looked like from this end to show how the way you made your argument was silly: "It was suggested that we trade Burrows for Stamkos" You: "That is terrible! If we trade Burrows it ruins our top 6 and completely decimates our offence!" In your eyes you think it is a reasonable argument to ignore the return and simply focus on the fact that Burrows would be moving out... same as you ignore the return of Bjugstad to make an argument that our future is "ruined" by losing Schroeder.
