combover Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) So he’s looking to add Adam gaudette or JV. Sounds like a trade for the sake of making a trade. Beagle AR Myers edler Pearson sutter le Benn bearcheese are the guys that should be getting shopped. I realize the value of most of that list is next to nothing but with sutter playing well for the first time in 4 years ( contract year shocking) pearson consistent play playoff gms looking for depths could trade away say for example a madden and a pick for a 10 game rental. Then again Jim likes to see ufas leave for nothing hope Jim gets fired when the season ends . owners shouldnt allow him to further damage this club by trading gaudette JV or any picks. he can trade some if trash he’s brought in if he can find someone dumber than himself so in other words no deals.

Guess Colorado has got it wrong too then. This ain’t the 90s. Things have changed dramatically. Cant just be big. Intelligence, mobility, gaps and positioning make a good defencemen. A good team has a balance of size, mobility, intelligence throughout their top 6. Very few big defencemen in the league have all these traits. Finding a balance on you’re blue line is the key to success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, with his deployment he has made some of them alot of $ despite any team success. This why I argued, that the FA's in our d core should all be allowed to walk (or offered a one year take it/leave deal) and Myers be exposed in the ED.

He's not a #1 yet. However, he will get better defensively. The kid is too smart not to succeed in his league. My point was you don't give up on a defensemen of Quinn Hughes' caliber for an unknown. You can't get a player like Hughes unless you draft them, or you sign them to a boat anchor contract at 27/28 and they're already past their prime (Erik Karlsson) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go cheer for another team if you think Hughes is a liability. The whole team has been hot trash this season.

Jyrki Lumme. He was very gifted offensively but had massive brain farts constantly. Got caught pinching a ton and coughed up the puck a bunch but he made up for it with his creativity. That being said Quinn is on another level offensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I wonder if some of our slumping players this season would do well under Gallant and his system? How is Green and Gallant different in their coaching and systems? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it comes to that, we should also trade Petersson and Boeser too and rebuild again because that is what you are suggesting. Hughes drives our offense, you get rid of him then who will provide offense and be a PP QB for us? Myers? Benn? give me a break. This is as assinine as saying Boeser or Miller should be traded since they are a liability when it comes to defense. Canucks would have a worst record than Sens if Hughes was not here, trust me. We lack offense already, we dont need to reduce it even more. You were probably the guy that praised Hughes last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Petersson will improve but Eichel is also a franchise player. The value is even given the potential. We would get the better forward now, and give up the better D. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
