Zucker has been decent for them this year and his contract is almost up. They have no reason to move him. -

Neither Miller or Boeser are going anywhere. Y'all have to realize this by now. -

This is the most likely scenario. -
I'm not sold on this trade, but I'm willing to give it a chance as I admittedly don't know much about the player. But definitely skeptical, as it looks like we're once again trying to stitch a blueline together instead of taking the proper time to build a strong one That being said, I'd like someone to give me a firm kick in the ass if I ever start to sound as annoying as some of the pessimists here.

Man, I hope note. We paid a lot more for Hronek than Schmidt. My biggest worry with this trade is that we're going to try and force a square peg into a round hole like we tried to do with Schmidt by trying to make Hronek play the Tanev role. Nothing against Hronek, but we still don't have a true shot sepression blueliner. If the goal is a quick turnaround, we're gonna need someone capable of playing the match up game, playing hard minutes, that can be thrown out there in a 2-1 game when they opposing goalie is pulled. We still haven't found that guy and, if we don't, next season is just going to be more of the same.

I've found that my initial gut reaction to pretty much anything hockey related normally ages like milk, so no reaction is probably the best reaction. It also protects me from being quoted by the smart-ass that will inevitably bump this thread just to mock the people that were wrong in two years or so.

I kinda get the feeling this closes the door on moving Boeser. Maybe they can pivot and move Garland instead. But realistically we probably won't be doing anything else. Moving Bo was our big deadline deal. -

What help do you think the extra cap is going to give us fixing the blueline? We've been trying to patch up the blueline via free agency and trades for years and it's been a disaster. Be patient, stockpile picks over the next couple seasons (the team isn't going anywhere next year anyways), and wait and see what happens. Maybe OEL regains his form, maybe he retires, maybe he opens up to the possibility of a trade, or maybe we buy him out then. Point is that there's no reason to do it now. -
