People need to stop saying to buy out OEL. It makes zero sense with what's left on his term and his contract structure. This has been explained ad nauseam.

The way Boeser is playing, especially against good teams, he isn't going anywhere because we can't trade him for any value unless we retain 50% min salary.

Was defending the Virtanen pick, but hard to ignore how good Nylander is after seeing his play yesterday. Seeing how much better Nylander is over Virtanen just makes you think how much Benning botched the 2014 and 2016 drafts. So much for people worshipping Benning as a draft God when hes clearly botched 2 years worth of high first round picks.
No one's batting average is 100%. And to the team or teams that have a great drafting history, they are very few. Objectively, Benning's draft history has been good.

Again, fans nitpicking based off of emotion of their personal bias of the current management. Lockwood and a 7th for a former lottery pick who's 23 and who hasnt been given a real shot is a W. Lockwood is 24 who has some injury concerns and has hardly cracked the lineup while putting up underwhelming numbers so far. Worst case scenario is this trade is a wash. This was a low risk move on our part so it's a good trade overall.
So far, the players PA and JR have brought in have been good.

How can one not like this trade
Maybe it works out, maybe not. But the potential is there. Lockwood was ok here but definitely worth the ”risk” and the pick is a really long shot anyway.
Great news!
People love to nit pick every move we make no matter how small especially with their personal bias against current or past regimes. This was a great move while giving up nothing. It's pretty simple.

Need to see what Kravtsov becomes before I make that sort of proclamation.
Its a great gamble on a player that hasn't had a shot yet while giving up nothing really. So great trade.

Being a professional athlete, they play to win. It's good to see. Whatever happens at the draft lottery happens. You don't purposely lose.

They got a 1st 2nd and 3rd pick, you still think Boeser has more value lol.
Reality is we would need to retain a part Boesers salary and take a marginal player back and maybe a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

The Boeser trade dreamers...dreams getting crushed.

If this is true it would strictly be money exchange and the only benefit for us is we are out of boesers contract
Sure. Reality is we're not getting a 1st rounder back plus 2 expiring contracts.

People have no sense of reality. This isn't a video game.

I would do this. Both players are UFA's ... Orlov, Hathaway + this years 1st for Brock?
Would open up a lot of money for next season.
Lol. They aren't throwing a 1st round pick for Brock.

I don't think this management knows how to do this. I don't think they have the gall to rip other GMs off.
These types of deals are few and far between. Our trades and FA's so far with this current management group has been solid.

Waiting for Schenn to be traded for a 3rd round pick and all the hating that's about to happen because they thought he'll get more than that.
-
Schenn won't get a 2nd rounder. Even more ridiculous is thinking he'll net a prospect and a pick.

Keep thinking it’s impossible, it’s not.
Bet on it. Unlikely to happen. Keep praying though.

Kuz was amazing tonight. JT made an amazing pass to tie the game up.

Islanders and Penguins are battling for a playoff spot. NYI recently beat PIT again this season and the Penguins could possibly miss the playoffs. Crazy to think Crosby and Malkin missing the postseason.
The Penguins need to find a way to beat Horvat and the Islanders.
Boeser to PIT for ??
Might see Horvat and Boeser going head-to-head for that last playoff spot.
Malkin and Sid have had a great run.

100%. This is the best and optimal route for both players. This has been explained over and over and over again yet people keep throwing out these ridiculous options without thinking it through. Honestly, although it's a message board, it's literally talking to a brick wall.
