At the end of the day we need a couple forwards along with the defence. With Hill going to San Jose and how this deal ended up being last minute. I think Seattle is actually going to take Holtby And likely JB knows this and why he made the deal. Or Dickinson + Holtby are going their way so they don't take Lind or Gadj. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one of our kids get taken it'd be pretty disappointing. Of course they are taking Holtby. That was worked out long ago is my guess. Holtby is a dynamite trade chip at the deadline. Holtby plus retaining gets a 2nd easy. Edited July 17, 2021 by Chris12345 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPA Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 5 minutes ago, brian42 said: guy doesn't provide offense and you can't rely on him for a defensive draw, i see him as a 4th line center not 3'rd, with pk mins. hope he signs for no more than 1 million. His last contract was $1.5M x 2yr. But it's a flat cap era so maybe he can get between $1-1.25M x 4yr? Not a bad price for a depth piece. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they take Lind, then it’s a third and Lind for Dickinson. You would have to look at it as who would Seattle have taken if kole wasn't exposed... So a 3rd and Lind for Dickinson and Gadjovich 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertuzzipunch Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Happy with this trade we finally have a 3rd line center to go with podz. Already a hard line to play against 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excuses about a thin prospect pool run out after about 4 years into a tenure, not a (new) 9 year plan. After last offseason being a debacle, that was his last life for me. Now he has to prove any moves by wins and losses on the ice before I will give him much credit. Are you dumb?! Yes, for things he's already done wrong. Fine!! How do you judge / criticize someone for something they haven't even done. Eg. Rumours that haven't even come to fruition? How f'n stupid is that. Maybe i should judge you for running a red light and killing someone.....but i assume you haven't done that. It would be pretty stupid of me to do something like that, no??? Double standards everywhere! What bull****!! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ur a Towel Posted July 17, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2021 Reading some of the comments in here shows that people really don't follow the league at all. This trade is fantastic and Dickinson will be a great 3c option with the ability to move up the lineup when needed. People saying this is a bad trade or "Is this all Benning can do?" need to stop talking and go learn about the player before coming here to comment. 1 1 17 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s horrid on faceoffs! Does Bo take all the D zone left hand draws? This trade is very likely to cost us Lind. is this guy worth Lind and a third? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appleboy Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Every team loses a player. It is just one player. We don't have any big time talents to protect. We are sitting with minimal to lose. Lind is a nice piece but he is not a ton to lose. Edited July 17, 2021 by appleboy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knucklehead91 Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 26 minutes ago, Deets said: I think people are being facetious, but this is a far cry from Bennings desire to be aggressive in getting skilled players. This is not a bad trade, but it's not exactly a home run. There is zero need to be aggressive prior to the expansion draft, it will just end up in lost assets or someone else of value being exposed. Wait until the draft passes. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
