If Brady Tkachuk falls to #7, I can see the Oilers making a big push to trade picks with us, so they can get BT. BT would be an ideal winger for McDavid. BT vs MT in the battle of Alberta. The hockey gods are getting mischievous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man we would be even more hated. Lol. Actually, the conversation probably went something like this: Don Sweeney: "Hey Jimbo, I heard that you're peddling the 7th. For old times' sakes, what discount can you give your previous employer?" Jim Benning: "McA..." (Sweeney hangs up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukeofcanuck Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Why don't we just keep the 7th pick? This team isn't going to be competing for years, not sure what the rush is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's already developed and can help out right away, and he has potential to be that #1. Maybe trade Sutter for Backes as well as a bit of a cap dump for them, and maybe throw in our 2nd and get Donato back as well as part of that. sure but they don't. Not all that interested - here's a list of their prospects, I don't see anyone I'd trade 1-1 from who's going to be available to us at 7: https://www.masslive.com/bruins/index.ssf/2018/02/boston_bruins_top_10_prospects_ryan_donato_highlights_deep_pipeline_ahead_of_nhl_trade_deadline.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flickyoursedin Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Only two players on their team worth including the 7th in a deal for are Pastrnak and McAvoy. Which are two players Boston won’t move. I think we should just use the pick. All this trading the 7th for guys like Hanifin make our team marginally better. Which probably just puts us in a top 10 pick next year instead of a top 5. Stick to the process it isn’t our time to make these trades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kid posted 5-4-9 in 12 games right out of college this year. We’d also be getting a good young defenseman as well and an extra 1st next year when we host the draft.

We’d also be getting a good young defenseman as well and an extra 1st next year when we host the draft. His college numbers are OK. Is he going to outscore Baer next season? We already have prospects for 5-6 D spots, thats all Carlo is going to be. In terms of potential elite talent, which we desperately need, neither of these guys projects to be that. Of course our #7 could turn into a bust, but we have a better chance at a 1/2 D or top line F than we do in this trade, imo anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush17 Posted June 12, 2018 Author Share Posted June 12, 2018 1 hour ago, VanGnome said: I'm fine with trading the 7OA pick if it means improving the team. We don't need prospects that are going to be an impact in 2-3 years, we need players that improve the skill of the team and can play now. The team has enough immediate future depth, right now the need is to improve and get out of the basement. The rebuild is done, now we just have to be patient with the new core, tweak here and there and we'll be good. This could be the approach we need. Eventually we need to try and lift ourselves out of the basement. If we got multiple first round assets back I'm.on board. Say two former first round picks who have promising NHL upside and a really good roster player. I can support a package with high quality assets that may be under valued. Only if Jim believes in them and their 21 or under. (Minus roster piece) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like that Jim seems to be whipping up trade buzz though. He might get teams looking at other pieces and suggest smaller deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
