Provost Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 4 hours ago, PhillipBlunt said: Then trade Conor Garland, Antony Beaulliver(sp), and Jack Rathbone to St. Louis for Colton Parayko and Brayden Schenn. Hughes Parayko Hanifin Hronek Woo Schenn Myers If they retain some on Parayko or take salary back, he is an interesting idea. If we are decided to go all-in, buying low on a guy with that pedigree could work out, especially if you ask less of him. With Hughes as a partner and a solid minute munching second pairing, Parayko drops to 20 minutes a night max… and doesn’t have to carry the whole load. Of course, I think we should be trading Miller for PLD and getting younger… but if the management wants to make a big push over the next year or two, then a move like this makes sense. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol no. He runs around trying to be physical and regularly gets caught out of position or danced. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougieL Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 7 hours ago, VegasCanuck said: I'd give them Garland and Rathbone to bring Toffoli back... Garland is locked in for another 3 seasons, so he can't hold them hostage saying "I won't resign here... " I think Allvin mentioned in his presser a few days ago that he wants to beat teams with speed. If that's the case, Toffoli likely doesn't fit the mold. I've never been a big fan of Toffoli due to his lack of footspeed, even though he did put up the points when he was here (and whenever he played against us). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. We no longer have Tweedle D and Tweedle Dumb in management. We have competent people again. They will make smart moves based on an actual plan.

Yup, and his skating is considered elite, which is impressive at 6’6 245lbs. I remember thinking how incredibly agile and athletic he was back in 2013 with the London Knights. Used to think he was a 6’6 Duncan Keith. Carved out more of a defensive career than an offensive one as his puck moving skills hadn’t translated to the NHL as well, but he’s truly one of the best at what he does.

Adds size, skill and experience to the defense immediately. Add Schenn or Mayfield as well, and the defense is bigger, stouter, and better.
