now is the time to go fully Murray on this team..... Trade picks and prospects overpay if you have to.

I don't think he has Murray's balls to do that.

They need that RD or big forward NOW. Not 3 years from now.
- Powerslave

pick 11 is worth more than 14 if they wanted to make that happen though

right now it looks like getting another pick to perhaps dump skinner so they can promote peterka or benson to the top line

they should have had 2 or 3 players targeted IMO

that's how most teams are when they are lottery bound

I don't give these guys the benefit of the doubt anymore and adams verified that today on the radio

- homiedclown



I'm not giving them the benefit of the doubt, either. Every team's boards are different after probably the top 3, though.

From a value perspective. We won the trade.


From a grand plan POV. Major question marks.

Does Carolina still want to give us Necas for 14 + who ever.

No clue

If you believe what's being said, Skinner wants to move on. Do you think Terry wants to pay him 10m this year? In both senses, moving on is very Sabrey.
- Lunaion


Paying skinner to not play here is not sabrey

For 6 years or 3 if they eat salary in a deal

He’s not a coach

If we use 14 and a prospect for Ehlers and 43 + skinner for futures the SJ trade makes a ton of sense. We still would have a pick in all rounds 2-7. Now, sign a Tanev type for D and a couple of the aforementioned 3/4 liners and we're good to go. Even if we use the pick at 14 and trade a 2nd to take Skinner it makes sense. If he uses all 9 picks, it makes no sense

Kevyn Adams said the trade with San Jose made sense because adding a 2nd rounder gives them more ammo to complete a deal to help the NHL roster.

Forget logic, we're building through the draft. In 3 years one of these kids will be ready and they can replace Skinner as he retires with a league record +/- of -189.

Jeff Skinner and his camp have not expressed a willingness to waive his no-move clause.

When a place is haunted I just drop a deuce in the middle of the Livingroom floor and exorcise that (frank)ing demon.

They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.

That's what I figured. Realistically in a trade for an NHL players there is not that much difference in value between 14 and 11. But now he has a second 2nd rounder to maybe make a second trade with.

Of course, most likely he will just make all the picks tomorrow and do nothing.

11 for 14 and 42? ummm ok. We're off to a bad start. At least we can say Adams is a man of his word. Said 11 would be in play. This is the worst.

I've decided we should keep him and give him Rempe minutes. Can't hurt the team if you don't play sucka.

My wife's bedroom was down there when we first met. I've seen poop, let alone heard poop, that I'd prefer to have not seen.
