hot-dog Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 First I still don't get the MCann trade, if we're rebuilding it would have made a lot more sense to keep what we knew we had. Hear me out, we trade for a 25 year old non point producing D Man, with a year before he is a RFA, because we already know we're going to draft another young forward , be it Tkachuk, or Dubois. Now it's to late to get Jarred back but we can still bail ourselves out and get some picks back. Instead we trade our #5 to Toronto, so they can get brother Nylander, but this is what we get back. Their #30 first round ,31 second round,#56 second round and #61 fourth round. Maybe throw #56 and steal Tyler Benson , don't want another, Brendan Gallagher, or Milan Lucic. Unless Montreal wants to barter something youthful back in trade swaps maybe Chychrun is still there at #9. I don't get this management, we're not making the playoffs for at least 3 years, Gudbranson is almost 29 by then, and may have mustered maybe 7or 8 goals, I'd take my chances on a drafted kid now and see what he's like at 21, save the money. Yup, figured as much....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Jay 22 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Toronto takes it and laughs at JB. Then we tar and feather you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanky Legs Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 We're never going to move on from this McCann-Guddy trade. I started an alternative with my circumcision thread but the Mods closed it. You mods, deserve the 5 threads about the trade everyday for the rest of the off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jock Cousteau Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Today I learned 24 + 3 = almost 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K PureCool Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Wrong section, and a horrible trade for us. Why would we trade a sure thing for a bunch of low probability lottery ticket. We will be the laughing stock of the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintPatrick33 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Benning doesnt need multiple draft picks doggy-dog, but Toronto sure does. This is a gawd-awfool trade for us, that top 5 pick would snag us a franchise player, and in return we get garbage 2nd rounders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 you mean we would be stupid for even doing something like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, figured as much....... So trade a pick that could possibly land us a 1st liner for four picks that could all end up being Nathan Smiths. How about no, we need quality more than quanitity and Tyler Benson ain't no superstar in the making and way overrated in these boards. Benning won't trade our top pick just to draft Tyler freaking Benson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
