Goal:thecup Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Still comes down to PA's opinion of Lundkvist, in my opinion. This does nothing to strengthen NY's hand in trade negotiations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I'd definitely down for taking a flyer on him. Actually, it wouldn't even be that, I believe he's underrated vastly in these parts....he'd do well here.

Jester13 Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Lemme get this straight: here's a guy who hasn't proven anything - hasn't really shown much at all, really, at the AHL or NHL level - but feels he deserves a top 4 role in the NHL, and as a result of not having it handed to him is deciding not to show up to camp with the team that drafted him? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that true? Is that what him/his agent have said that they feel he should be in the top 4 (or getting top 4 mins)? I just thought it was due to their current very deep RHD roster and as a result there really isn't a way for him to get in. Fox, Trouba and Schneider all ahead of you and no one is old or likely getting moved out anytime soon. Maybe they move Schneider out and Nils can go for that 3rd spot, but seems unlikely considering the Canucks would have likely paid a good price for Schneider already. So he is currently at best #4 in their RD depth and maybe that isn't even a sure thing, plus he is at an age where he should be playing a ton and I don't think that'll be happening for him on a contending NYR team.

He wants a better shot at having a top 4 role. Granted, he sees the Rangers lineup and knows he's not getting in any time soon, thus wanting a trade, but not reporting to camp is a huge red flag of entitlement.

Nils' success seems predicated on him walking into a team that's going to give him power play opportunities. He'd be the number 4 option on the Canucks, hell maybe even number 5. Quinn, OEL, Myers, and Rathbone are all better/more accomplished PP d-men then Nils. He's also not very big and would make our D even smaller on average. I'm not saying that he won't amount to nothing, but I don't think that he's a good fit on our team and I think he'd be pouting even more if he got traded here and realized that he wouldn't get a sniff at PP1 or PP2 time.

mll Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Doesn't feel like a smart move by Lundkvist given how Drury went about things went Kravtsov asked for a trade. He's still on his ELC for another 2 seasons and is waiver free. NYR can just wait till they find the right deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Can’t blame him. Since getting drafted they’ve amassed the deepest and most talented young group of RD’s in the league (Fox, Trouba, Schneider, Lundqvist, Emberson, Skinner). Now that they’re set on Schneider being on the team, Nils is stuck. I think Lundqvist has top-4 upside. But unless Poolman is still hurt, or we send Schenn back in a trade, not sure we have room for him right now either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal:thecup Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 From ForeverBlueShirts.com: Lundkvist is still a highly regarded prospect that is projected to be a future power play quarterback thanks to an elite shot and great passing skills. In his final SHL season, he won the Salming Trophy as the league’s best Swedish born defenseman recording 14 goals and 32 points in 52 games. That was the most goals from a defenseman as a 21 year-old player or younger in league history. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
