  1. That was a crazy rumor to begin with. But I'm sure Canucks could have offered something better than what they got. Or maybe NYR want the cap space to do something bigger.
  2. On the SN650, they mentioned that maybe the 13th pick + Reinhart can get them into the top 10 pick. If that is the case, I hope JB jumps on it to slide down a few spots.
  3. Yep. The ask for Reinhart is a 1st + top prospect. Usually the 1st is a late round pick (20-ish) and not a top 10 pick. So perfectly reasonable a 9th OVA can snag Reinhart. And since it's a flat cap world, BUF needs to take a short term bad contract back to make it work. Otherwise BUF will be saddled with disgruntled players and the losing culture will never change.
  4. Good point. Supposedly Francis likes to build from the Defence out.
  5. Shouldn't that be looking down at Quinn since he's big? Lol.
  6. Sure if the contract is cheap enough that doesn't add to the cap if he is sent to the AHL. So maybe $1M-ish x 2yr?
  7. I hear ya. Schmidt value is more than the 3rd round pick we gave up for him. And his year with us was an anomaly when looking at his overall stats. I think Schmidt + 2nd can get Buch. Or perhaps a swap of 1sts (9th vs 16th) is enough to facilitate a deal. With 16th, would target Svechkov.
  8. The best bet is to do what VAN did to TB. Get the 2022 1st rd pick top 15 protected. Then if MTL actually fails to make the playoffs, they keep that 2022 pick and the 1st automatically becomes the 2023 1st rd pick.
  9. No such thing as overloaded prospect pool. Some picks will hit but most will miss.
  10. Maybe. BUF is a disaster organization. The culture of losing is getting to their players. They need to change it from the top down.
  11. Yes. They have all of their 2022 picks. So it is possible.
  12. Probably get flipped. Hearing NYR are interested in Gio.
  13. Good possibility. Then next couple of years of a high draft pick. Maybe get Wright and Bedard.
  14. SEA is not taking on big salary vets. Maintaining salary cap flexibility. Sounds to me that they are going to build through the draft rather than be an instant playoff team. So look at them to weaponize their cap space and grab picks and prospects. Maybe they even surprise everyone by drafting Wallstedt.
  15. Would probably take a big package of picks and prospects as this would signal a rebuild for BUF. Risto + Reinhart For 1st 2021 (9th) + 2nd 2021 + Lind + OJ/Rathbone + LE.
  16. Probably told Larssen that they were going to select Price. AL: "SOLD. Finally a real #1 goalie to play with." Lol.
  17. Yep. Do it if the chance to land a good chance at signing a big name UFA comes around.
  18. If a 2nd is all it takes to move LE, then do it. It's a no brainer. Canucks could possibly recoup a 2nd (or at least a 3rd) from trading Holtby. Maybe even acquiring more picks if Schmidt is also traded away (but I'd rather keep him and see how he would do in a full season).
  19. Canucks is Team Sweden!! Sign Larsson for $5.5M x 6yrs. Takes him to 34yrs old.
