However, I can't get a read on his defense and if he's truly that horrific or is it the Buffalo factor. We need offence so I want to bring him in for that. I’m sure it’s the system partially and that can be corrected. Edler could actually be a good mentor for him on the same pairing. May take a lot to get him but that can be offset with sending Tanev and Sutter out for some assets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would want another 2 line top six scorer an a second back probably ? i would do it but Sutter they won’t lkely want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that close enough to Raymond, Ballard and a 2nd? Haha. As long as it’s not from our core I’m good with any combo including our non TB 1st. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48MPHSlapShot Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 I can't see us having the assets to make this deal now that the draft is sone and one of our 1sts from the next 2 seasons is gone. Something like Stetcher, Juolevi and a 2nd might pique their interest but I don't think I'd be willing to pay that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking something like Virtanen + Baer might be in the ball park. Would suck to move Jake but you gotta pay to play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't need right D and just traded for a roughly Stecher comparable in Miller. I wouldn't include OJ personally.

Bogosian just had hip surgery so they're going to need someone to fill in for them. Buffalo could also flip Tanev at the deadline for a pick/prospect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a lot of F depth to compensate plus we can add in FA if needed. Still holding out hope for my primary target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want someone to play in their top 6, Baer would probably be the best bet to fill that void. Regardless, it's going to cost us some pretty significant assets. With the trade we just made, can we justify shipping out a 2nd rd pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, when we acquire him (Yeah I’m going bold) I say we just unleash him and pair him with someone defensively responsible. Our team is being built to drive the rush and keep the pressure on. WCE style! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But don’t they know our long term plan is to pair Risto and Joulevi together? For a young core player with term, picks are no object. Our top picks are in play to secure players like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have pretty decent D depth, they do lack middle 6 F's though, especially ones who can play all three zones. Baer has had concussion issues but he's a legit and responsible 2nd line player when healthy. Virtanen is damn good defensively and could play on their 3rd line to start, with some room for second line upside. Both are on solid contracts as well. Add a decent B prospect and I think it's in the ball park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hoglander comes in in a few years, Pearson becomes expendable. Hell, maybe Myers turns into a pick in a few years as long as we don't do something stupid like give him a full NTC for his entire contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is definitely a great prospect for where we picked him but I’m certain he will be a skilled undersized winger. If he’s needed for a top 4 PMD with size that is young on a great contract, I’d go for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
