If we strike out on a big name like Panarin to help with our offensive woes I would be ecstatic with pursuing Schenn next year. I also hope Luke is re-signed, he looked fantastic in his short stint with the team last year, all things considered. The problem with him is we already have a 7th D in Biega. If he has shown enough to be a consistent bottom paring guy, or ok with being a 7/8 I think he is a great option. Schenn and Tanev? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 (edited) As for all the people asking 'why?!'...I certainly wouldn't hate a future 3rd line of Bennett, Gaudette, Virtanen Man they'd be a PITA! That said, no thanks to the offer sheet. If anything, I'd pursue a trade sending them a more affordable option, '+'.

We have too many middle six forwards as it is, we aren't going to add a 18 y/o who can't do a chin up... sarcasm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bennett was a guy I was interested in before his little resurgence as a feisty 3rd liner. Motte and a 2nd/3rd for Bennett. Motte is a Sam Bennett lite and will be cheaper. Get a decently high pick in the 2nd rounder. Would be nice if he could be had for a 3rd rounder but they probably would want a 2nd rounder. Not sure if Motte would fly for them. I really liked his play this season so I may value him more than they would. Is this where a deal involving Jake Virtanen might make sense? Jake has one year left at 1.25, making him a cheaper option. His qualification number next year would be lower too. We get a more aggressive player who I can see being the swiss army knife player. Full-time third liner who can move up when injuries occur. Third- liner for third- liner. Both have very similar numbers, both get fresh starts with both still having the potential to develop into what they were drafted to be. I would want a bit more due to Jake being locked up for one more year. Jake Virtanen to Calgary for Sam Bennett and a 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
