You clearly don't know how good Chychrun is. It’s ok.

Has anyone actually thought of what pieces they might want back for Chychrun. If they want a young plug and play D man or a D prospect they can sign. Maybe we don't have the exact pieces. There's a few trades that went down that Buffalo didn't have the right stuff or not willing to give up that stuff even if they wanted to go ahead with a trade.

You mean teams aren’t clamoring for Jeremy Davies and Larry Pilut…

You keep your second round picks that may never see the NHL and finish out of the playoffs.

Getting the 13th overall is a Buffalo tradition. Welcome to mediocrity.

Chicken-Man and Vejmelka for:

2023 top 10 protected 1st, Philly's 2023 2nd, UPL, Rosen, and Ostlund

Broken down:

2023 1st, plus two first round prospects for Chicken

UPL and a 2nd for Vejmelka

I feel like if that was offered for the Chicken man, it would have already went down. More than likely KA would give up one of Rosen or Ostlund, but not both

Maybe but now Arizona is losing suitors with holding out this long

Teams know they have to trade him after sitting him for so long.

My point was that’s 3 first round assets. Now are they first round assets the covet is a different question. And if they don’t I don’t think that’ll change.

I think that’s fair for both. The coyotes GM might not think that though

Not giving up Ostlund. He is too good. I don't think Adams does either.

We have Rosen, Johnson, portillo, ostlund, poltapov and many draft picks. I think if he really wanted to improve the team right now it's more than possible. Imo he's not doing anything major this year. Any trade will be bargain bin or waiver pick ups.

Is Vejmelka really that ahead of UPL?

His #'s last year are very comparable to UPL this year.

Yup it’s pathetic. I can’t imagine what Sam ventura is thinking looking at our goalie analytics.

My favorite thing to read is “but UPL wins games”

Yeah no.

- Sabretooth9


he wins because we have to average 5 goals a game, how about winning a game 2-1 or god forbid 1-0

You're discounting how good Chychrun is + he has term + he;s young and fits into our strategy + our defensive prospect pool is non existent
- turbo044


Speaking if discounting- give Arizona 5 picks/ prospects for a guy with a long list of injuries?

Shouldnt chickenrun's injury history be any worry?

Agreed, my point was if this was offered, and the AZ GM thought of ostlund and Rosen as valuable first round assets, and KA offered it, it would already have been accepted .

I’m not a big UPL fan, but if their answer is Quick I’d rather them just run with UPL

just like every other trade, the return will be underwhelming for arizona. they'll get a little more than ekholm.

How often do you see these scores anymore.. Averaging over 6 goals a game this year.

Only 10 teams averaging under 3

Was listening to overdrive or maybe another show yesterday and they were saying this is the biggest deterrent for teams. Why no one will pay the asking price of Arizona
