[Proposal] 10th overall + ???? for Jacob Trouba?
qwijibo replied to Hindustan Smyl's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
I said there’s still a chance of getting a very good player with the 10th pick. The difference is the players available at that point are less the “sure thing” variety and more the “project” variety. -
[Proposal] 10th overall + ???? for Jacob Trouba?
qwijibo replied to Hindustan Smyl's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
People are over rating the value of the 10th overall pick. Go back and look at the last 40 or so 10th picks. There’s one superstar (Selanne). Some solid NHlers, and a lot of busts. Yes. There’s the potential of getting a very good player. But it’s not as high a chance as people like to think 10th Overall NHL Draft Picks Year Player Pos.

[Discussion] Huberdeau

You dont seriously believe they’ll give away Huberdeau for a chance to sign Panarin? I swear some people on here are downright delusional -

No one is giving up a high 1st for a 29 year old goalie a year away from UFA who literally has 1/2 of a good season under his belt. -

There is literally no reason for Colorado to make that deal. -

The Huberdeau rumours were debunked almost as fast as they were reported. -

Florida would like Pettersson for their top line. 13th overall and a bunch of B and C assets should be a starting place. Right? -
JB: I’ll make the phone call about the 1st overall pick
qwijibo replied to Generational.EP40's topic in Canucks Talk
So they should give up what is most likely a top line player for a couple lottery scratch tickets? Nope. You take the bird in the hand. Nothing you are offering up has the appeal of a 1st overall pick. -

qwijibo replied to Generational.EP40's topic in Canucks Talk
If I’m NJ I take the one high end asset from having 1st overall over a collection of lesser “meh” assets. Vancouver wouldn’t accept a selection of ok assets if they had first overall. Jersey won’t either -

qwijibo replied to Hindustan Smyl's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
It’s mind boggling that you think that package would come close to landing Ekblad. Never mind them adding a 2nd on top -
No way in hell Colorado takes that collection of “assets” for 4th overall

What Guaranteed Draft Position? With Simulators, Current #8
qwijibo replied to TheGuardian_'s topic in Canucks Talk
It’s done in the presence of a representative from every team along with a private accounting firm. In addition. A full unedited video of the draft lottery is released every year. The reason it’s done as it is is that the first overall has to be picked first. It would take away from the drama to do it that way live. -
[Proposal] Summer UFA Signing: Anders Lee
qwijibo replied to Provost's topic in Proposals and Armchair GM'ing
I’d be shocked if he doesn’t re-sign with the Isles. That’s the reason no one is talking about him as a target -
Strictly speaking they’re paid in Canadian dollars but it is adjusted by the exchange rate to match U.S. funds.
-
All players are paid in American funds. Regardless of where the team is located.

Only in your dreams Alf.

His rights are worth a late rounds pick.
