There would have to be a centre and a high draft pick or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Scotty Walker could give him a few tips - Scotty was a very tough fella. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be buying low considering if he becomes the 25 goal 60-70 point guy in his prime you’ll never acquire that player. Certainly not for a measly 1st.

Popular Post grandmaster Posted February 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 9, 2022 (edited) Great game. Loved seeing all our big guns score! - Miller’s goal was probably the best goal of the year - PP was 2/3 - PK was perfect - Demko outstanding as usual - Garland and OEL had a great showing versus their former team - Canuck fans in the arena, even though they were half full, were loud and on point with the bad ref calls and Bruce there it is chant!

I'm not interested in trading our 1st for a third straight year. Our prospect pool is crap, and Rutherford isn't on board with moving out picks anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drdeath Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Fun night capped off by getting a smile out of EP40 when I ran into him as I was leaving and I gave him a “good game Petey!” 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade Dickinson + Poolman/Hamonic + unprotected 1st 2022 for Crouse. We get a young PWF and much needed cap space. Unlike some people on here I have no problem trading 1sts for the right player. I don’t see anyone complaining about giving them up for Miller and Garland now. And the funny thing is they both have more value now than we traded for them. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing what they got ahead of them too with this rink fiasco. I bet lots of their UFAs are gone no matter what. Crouse would be a big add for us… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilunga Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 12 minutes ago, HKSR said: He's a very smooth and efficient skater, so it bodes well for his longevity in the game for sure. Since playing at the top level he has consistently played high 70's into the low 80's game wise until 2019- 20, he played 66 games. Last year 46 from a 56 game schedule. As you state he has am effecient skating style. Hopefully when this Covid crap is over and the younger members of our team hit their stride, he will also pick up his game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know about the 1st though, too much value for a guy that might not put up numbers ala Dickinson. But hes a nasty one thats for sure 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray_Cathode Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 5 minutes ago, Coconuts said: It is the Coyotes, so a grain of salt for sure. But I've been of the opinion that OEL should be getting more of those soft offensive minutes for a little while now. Given the career he's had it's strange that he's just fallen off offensively. It's a number of things, no doubt, but Hughes getting preferential treatment offensively is part of it. If Hughes wants to grow as a player he'll need to take more of those hard minutes OEL and Myers are eating. We are seeing Hughes get more defensive looks as time goes on, so you might be getting what you want by default. But I think you are right, we need a better division of those minutes. Be even more interesting if Rathbone is the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ermmm.. the only knock on Hughes is his D game and he's gotten better but hardly near his ceiling and that will dictate hard minutes when you need guys who play a high-end D game because if not.. Guys like McDavid etc etc will feast on D weaknesses so he still has a ways to go but steadily improving in that area but still needs work. He'll get there, just when is the question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our prospect pool is crap, and Rutherford isn't on board with moving out picks anyway. Not really a big if. Guy is on pace for 40 points on an absolutely brutal offensive Arizona team. He for sure puts up twice the goals on a better team. I’m not worried about our prospect pool right now. With proper coaching we can see this team is only a couple D men and some solid depth role players from being a playoff team. Add Crouse to an already deep forward group and we’d have a great mix of players. Giving up 1sts is not a bad move if you’re getting core players in return.
