I really don't think much of Nylander as a prospect. Doubt he makes it in the NHL. We don’t really have a prospect on Nylanders level that we’d be willing to part with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes, I remember the glory days of Nylander, Steve Sullivan and Kyle Calder. Right about the same time I thought Steve McCarthy was gonna be Norris winner someday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was even on a team with one of his sons in the Swedish league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48MPHSlapShot Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Did we have anything equivalent to Nylander that we could have moved the the Hawks for Jok? It's kinda difficult to gauge, because Nylander was a high pick and all, but it's hard for me to believe that his stock hasn't fallen significantly since he was selected. Would Virtanen have had similar value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would probably argue that JV is a better player than AN, both today and going forward... and I would have absolutely traded him for HJ. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 40 minutes ago, The Lock said: It's hard to say in my opinion. It would really depend on which team asked for what player first I would imagine. Perhaps it's hard to imagine Chicago wanting Nylander but you never know. Remember: Nylander's only 21. He literally had his first few games when he was 19. I'm not saying I would have given up on him. Just looks like Buffalo is. They got a great player for him though. So there's that at least. With the lack of talk about him I was beginning to think he'd get traded for what Pouliot/Baertschi was traded for. Middling picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his last name wasn't Nylander I'm guessing there wouldn't be the fuss over him. I really dont like his game. It probably is a bit of an overpayment on paper, but I'm not as high on Podkolzin as some others. I think he'll be a good player, but Jokiharju has the potential to be better in a more important position that also happens to be arguably our biggest need.

I like Jake, and still think he can break out as a 20-20 middle 6 type of player, but Jokiharju would have filled a need and given us a pretty solid looking future D core, with Jokiharju, Woo, Stetcher and Tryamkin on the right and Hughes, Juolevi, and Rathbone on the left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBH1926 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Stan must think that he can capture lighting in the bottle. Either that or that Sabre’s screwed up Nylander's development. Time will tell, I like this trade for Buffalo right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in Chicago are saying that because Quenneville was high on Jokiharju, that put a target on his back with the new coach.

I'm just dead against trading prospects before you even see what you got. Very, very dangerous game. In the case of this trade both teams are probably confident in what they were trading.

SabreFan1 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 oooooo... Nylander throwing some shade!!! He plays poorly and it's Rochester's fault. Quote "Buffalo, that kind of stuff, that's in the past. Obviously thought maybe I would be in the NHL sooner than I have been, but I'm just really excited, looking forward to being part of the Blackhawks organization," Nylander said. "Really good with development players, so they actually know what they're doing." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
