Interesting, but switch Virtanen with Baer in trade one.  Plus Logan Brown will NOT fall to 9.  If we don't stay at five and take him, the Flames will grab him at six.

lol Grandlund on the first line

 

So basically...

 

- we trade a 2nd a get a 2nd.

- Right now there is no guarantee Brown will be better or worse than Virtanen, so that pretty much a wash.

- We trade our 2017 1st rounder for another 1st rounder Juulsen.

- It comes down to Hansen and Markstrom to move from #5 to #3.

 

The only reason it balances out at the end, is because we overpay for CBS trade and MTL overpays for 5th overall.

 

Just not happening.

I think that is an overpayment for Puljujarvi. That's roughly the equivalent of two top ten 1sts and three 2nds. 

 

The MTL trade is lopsided for us.  After hearing about some invisibility issues from cdc'ers about Brown, I wouldn't take him, in my opinion he has the biggest bust potential right up there with Chychrun in the top 12. At #9 I would rather Jost/Keller/Sergachev/Nylander.

 

Juulsen was left off your 2020 roster.

For probably most other players, I would agree. But Puljujarvi is just amazing. People don't talk about him as much as Matthews and Laine, but based on his performance in different world tournaments, he should be there. YouTube: Jesse Puljujärvi - 2015 IIHF WJC Highlights

Impressive, but no (wait for it)...Finnish.

 

Im very familiar with what Puljujarvi brings. If he was a center with that drive/skill then yes I would be more inclined to make that trade.

 

He has a heart of gold, but shows some signs of having hands of stone.

Those highlights reminded me a bit of Hansen to be honest.

 

Yes I know he is 16 in that video. Even if I didn't see one point in that video of roughly 30 shots, it was the most impressive non scoring highlight reel I've seen in a while.

I like the idea. Jake does make sense in that we're trading a winger to draft a winger.. I would think that if CBJ wants to trade that pick they would want a centre.

the deal probably starts with Horvat.

 

Whether it's worth it or not I dunno.

I think that CBJ deal would require us taking Bobrovsky's contract back our way too. So it would have to be:

 

TRADE 1: Puljujarvi 
TO VAN
3rd OA

Bobrovski's 7.5 mil cap hit - so no UFAs this year - unless we trade Miller... but imagine being stuck with 13.5 mil in a Bobrovkski-Miller tandem


TO CBJ
Virtanen
Hansen
Markstrom
2017 1st (*top 5 protected*)
Cbj 2nd (17/18)

I like the idea of going for Pulujaarvi. I think him and Horvat would be an amazing duo. 

I would rather trade Baertschi than Virtanen, although I'm not sure if that will get it done. Maybe instead of Virtanen we could give up Baertschi and Pedan to your proposed trade?

 

Also, if we somehow acquire the 3rd overall pick without giving up our 5th overall, I think we should keep both the high picks. That could build us 2/3 of our top line moving forward. Taking Pulujaarvi and Tkachuk/Dubois would drastically improve our situation moving forward:

 

Tkachuk - Horvat - Pulujaarvi

Baertschi - ________ - Boeser

Gaunce - Granlund - Etem

 

or

 

_______ - Horvat - Pulujaarvi

Baertschi - Dubois - Boeser

Gaunce - Granlund - Etem
