Dr. Crossbar Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I just want to see us go from talking about being active, and rumours of being very active, to ... you know ... actually being active. It's like Facebook and the difference between "interested" in going to an event to actually "going" to the event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combover Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Benning going to go down the same road the oilers did, give up good you g developing players for veteran d men. To bad he won’t just build through the draft (like he said) now we will give up some of the future for a job saving band aid trade that like most of his deals won’t work out. We aren’t close to cup contender so it makes no sense. But then Again not much Jim does makes sense. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would take a haul to get him though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know how coveted Risto is though. Yes, he’s big, and can put up points, but he’s minus A LOT every year. I would like JB to get Risto, but only for a fair price. Some say Risto is not very hockey smart. Sabre fan can fill us in with more about that. i was thinking a Gaudette for Risto trade could be fair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris12345 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 (edited) Here's my take which is slightly coated in deck beersh. Tanev and Edler need to move on. Maybe not this summer but it's time. Stetcher is redundant with Hughes. They need a bomb back there so..... Nothing strong drafting and time my friends. And a lotta Woo!

I think it would be a lot (more than a quarter cask) to give up which would force Van to trade from a position of weakness. Other than center, and arguably goaltending, they suck in all positions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris12345 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I love how the rumour is Benning is looking hard at D. My God if 31 teams aren't hard at their defense going into the draft I'd be floored. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a cool story, but do you have a single example from this decade? So maybe you're onto something - ie Benning is going to go down the same road the Oilers did - ie never gave up a single developing player for a veteran D.

I think any offer probably starts with Marky (they need a goalie). Unsure what else we would be adding though based on their needs (top 6 F, left D). I also think we'd need to 'overpay' as we'd likely be looking at a quantity for quality situation. And I'd probably be ok with that depending on what's going back.

The average weight is two hundred pounds so he’s a little below average in that category. Still didn’t stop him from scoring 65 points a season ago. He is small. We were not discussing scoring or points at all. Yes he got lots of points...good on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After my post I thought about it more and agree that if Horvat was traded anywhere a #1-2 D man would have to come back along with some type of replacement for him as a 2C.
