If they can acquire him they’ll send us Pettersson for cheap. People are proposing all these giant deals that will never happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Just now, HKSR said: Depends on whether or not BUF and/or OTT want to unload that much for Chychrun. They might have the assets, but do they want to pay? Columbus too I reckon they're all willing to ante up to a degree, all three are prospect rich prospects who want to take steps forward, Ottawa and Columbus in particular need D upgrades whereas Buffalo has great pieces but looks to be wanting to add Buffalo and Ottawa are young rosters too, Chychrun'd age fits in well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we are on the corner begging teams to take them. Bad management, yes. Should we have traded them last year? Yes. Are we begging them to take them? No, they're still positive assets that could help any team trying to make a run. I wouldn't mind holding onto Boeser if there aren't any attractive deals, not much term on his contract anyways. Probably won't be competitive within his contract's timespan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more about us providing PIT with some currency to flip to ARZ for Chychrun. A Rathbone or Mcdonough would help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48MPHSlapShot Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 I kinda get the feeling this closes the door on moving Boeser. Maybe they can pivot and move Garland instead. But realistically we probably won't be doing anything else. Moving Bo was our big deadline deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s funny cause people are gonna be mad after the trade deadline because management didn’t make all these far fetched trades that people proposed. Go through enough trade deadlines and you stop expecting big moves to happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don't see them paying the high price. Likewise, Ottawa has Chabot or Sanderson. Not sure if they would pay a high price right now either. I have NO idea what Columbus is doing, but of those 3 teams, I could see them doing it after losing Gavrikov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mll Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 14 minutes ago, HKSR said: I bet PIT is looking for pieces from us to flip to ARZ for Chychrun. Something like: To VAN: Pettersson McGinn 2nd To PIT: Garland Rathbone Then... To ARZ: POJ Rathbone 1st To PIT Chychrun For PIT, it means: OUT: Pettersson, POJ, McGinn, 1st, 2nd IN: Chychrun, Garland This feels like less going to Arizona than what Nashville got for Ekholm. Edmonton's initial target was Chychrun but price was too high so they had to go another direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck You Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 11 minutes ago, MeanSeanBean said: Contrast heat to cold. Start with a heating pad/hot shower then switch to cold. Minimum 10 degrees difference between the 2 heats, but more is better. Starting with heat, end with cold. Repeat 3ish times as needed. Heat twice as long as cold, so if you heat for a minute, cold for 30 seconds. Continue this for 48 or so hours, then switch to heat full time. Anti-inflammatory medications are great, but I'd avoid pain killers like Tylenol. Muscle relaxants are fine, but used with caution (don't take them and go work a physical job it increases the risk of injury) Self massage is also very good. Use your hand to find a sore area then apply pressure while moving the muscle under your hand, not moving your hand. Find a knot in neck/shoulder move neck not hand. Treating things like this is what I do for a living on an average day. Wow, Thank you so much for the tips, You're greatly appreciated! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schaeffer > Rathbone 1st = 1st 4th? Maybe PIT throws in another prospect or pick. It really isn't that big of a difference in value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably won't be competitive within his contract's timespan. No.... no they aren't Boeser is not a positive asset because he is underperforming on his contract. Especially in the goals department, which is what playoff teams want from him. He is a liability in the neutral and defensive zones. No team sees him as an asset unless we are retaining close to 50% of his contract. Miller could indeed help a team making a playoff run, however his next contract immediately deflates his "asset" qualities. We can't retain, or else we retain for 7 years. Miller last TDL was a huge asset. Miller + contract is debatable, but I assure you other GM's are not willing to pay to acquire his salary cap hit. It's better you accept now that these players are not assets for other teams or else you will be sorely disappointed with any return we get, if indeed they are traded. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have NO idea what Columbus is doing, but of those 3 teams, I could see them doing it after losing Gavrikov. I was under the impression Power can play both sides and doesn't Dahlin play RD? Capfriendly has him listed as both but I was pretty sure he's primarily an RD. As for Ottawa, perhaps Chychrun or someone else switches sides? Capfriendly has Chychrun listed as being being RD/LD. I think Columbus sold Gavrikov to give up assets for Chychrun, def an upgrade for them. They won't give up their own 1st as it's a lottery pick but they could give up LA's plus Sillinger, Cuelemans, Mateychuk, ect. It won't be Jiricek and it's unlikely to be Johnson but they've got prospects for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like we take McGinn and Blueger and they take Boeser with retention and add Pettersson as the sweetener? But again that would be dependent on them acquiring Chychrun which I don’t see happening. Columbus and Ottawa have interest as well it sounds like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
