73 Percent Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I dont know if the value is the same or if carolina has interest in letting him go but I would do a virtanen for martinook swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be all over that. Nylander has unreal hands and can move the puck with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a fighter but will engage, does hit and at 6"4 you feel it. Nashville isn't trading Ekholm, Josi or Ellis. Intense, demanding, grumpy. Three of the major ingredients which make up the incalculable “HEART” of the sport. Something Virtanen needs to learn fast. Love the dude. But he’s following; not leading. And he can. We’ve seen it. He needs to get intense, demanding, and grumpy. Thanks to his size, he only needs to work on the grumpy.

He's the Defender that took Petey out only to be awarded a penalty shot and poor Rinne is still looking for his jock Forgot to mention during the entire incident abive that Ekholm was raging on and off the bench. ( is this the same game Myers decked forsberg?) Edited February 18, 2021 by GhostsOf1994 Shot with an I #2 point 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eriksson is a definite part of that regardless. Why he may have played? Great way to get out of that contract for Toronto. It is a highly controversial contract in Toronto. He has been criticized into oblivion in every living room in the Province.

JM_ Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 2 hours ago, Provost said: His value is nothing... He had a short heater for a few weeks in the middle of last season... he was awful in the first part of last season and awful since. I quoted it recently, but may be misremembering... I think he has 9 points in his last 48 games... or a 15 point pace over a full 82 game season. He is paid $3.4 million next year in real dollars and has a $2.55 million cap hit. The bottom feeding teams don’t want to lay out that much cash for low end 4th line production, and contending teams don’t want to pay that kind of cap hit for someone who can’t crack our weak bottom 6 roster as a regular. we shall see. I get your take on him, just don't think the league would view him as low as you do, but we'll know soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHL rocks Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 JV has no value right now. It would be most likely be a salary dump with a project 4th liner like a Zach MacEwen coming back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know... is there a less talented cousin playing in the 2nd tier Swedish league we don't know about? This is obviously not referring to William Nylander, unless the add from us is massive. The guy has no inside knowledge or presence from anything visible on his twitter, just a fan. It seems to be a joke as he posted this as his source...

Nylander has one of the worst contracts in the NHL, with 3 more years after this one at an almost $7 million cap hit while putting in such a pitiful excuse for an effort he'd get kicked off a beer league team. He has massive negative value and I don't want our kids to think his refusal to even attempt to play like an NHLer in his own end is acceptable from a professional hockey player.

So you reward 2 of our most competitive players with a linemate who cares more about his hair than winning, and needs a tourist visa to enter his own zone? Yikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flickyoursedin Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 If it’s to relieve cap like suggested above Detroit did take that overage dman I wanted last draft. At this point Virtanen for Alex Cotton and a 2nd round pick I’d do that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
