GD Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Wait, didn't you also trade Puig for prospects in the BBDL? Yes
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Puig + A. Meyer + P. Johnson + Hak Ju Lee for Aaron Sanchez, Joey Gallo, Miguel Sano and a round 2 draft pick. Same type of deal he just made in this league. Trades that you have almost no chance to win are awesome!
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Zajac is a nice centre to have - he can be a 50-60 pt player as he's shown in the past and he'll put up nice all-around numbers. I was a huge fan back in 2009 and 2010 - those were some really good years.
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Someday soon you're going to get f***ed by the giant dick of prospect attrition and stop making these deals. You're currently making trades under the assumption that most prospects reach their ceilings, when the reality is that most don't. Leon Draisaitl is more likely to bust completely than to hit 80 points in a season.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Should we recite #3 overall picks of the past. This isn't baseball. Matt Duchene lmao
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Should we recite #3 overall picks of the past. This isn't baseball. recent 2-5 forwards taken: 2007 = JVR, Turris 2008 = N/A 2009 = Duchene, E. Kane, Schenn 2010 = Seguin, Johansen, Niederreiter 2011 = Landeskog, Huberdeau, Strome 2012 = Galchenyuk The only guys there you can maybe make a case for being on par with Duchene are Seguin and Landeskog. I have two of them (Schenn and Galchenyuk) and I wouldn't trade either for Draisaitl, but would not hesitate for a second to trade them for Duchene. There's just no upside. Duchene is almost a PPG game guy. The odds that Draisiatl reaches his level are low.
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Also: if anyone wants to trade me a near-PPG player in his prime for Galchenyuk or Schenn, please PM me.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 Also: if anyone wants to trade me a near-PPG player in his prime for Galchenyuk or Schenn, please PM me. I would be interested in Galchenyuk, somewhat.
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 No need to throw in garbage like Schen and Neido they're irrelevant to this discussion. anyhow the point I was making is that the #3 overall consistently produces elite talent. There was a dry spell there in the mid 2000's but hockey was in a weird place then. lol, the guys who "busted" are irrelevant? Why? Draisaitl is far from a safe prospect.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 #3 consistently produces elite talent So you trade for a #3 pick, sure But what do you trade for it? AN ELITE TALENT FROM A #3 PICK WAT
GD Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2014 Posted October 5, 2014 lol, the guys who "busted" are irrelevant? Prospects don't bust man. Attrition is a myth like global warming.
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 I would be interested in Galchenyuk, somewhat. Anything in mind?
GD Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Anything in mind? Watcha lookin' for?
havok24 Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Nik Ehlers + pick(s) could be yours for a goaltender. Get your Danish now before it's too late!
Frag Verified Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 I leave for the weekend, come back and see a major trade go down.
vanland Verified Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Well for one, being an Oiler fan and watching every game is going to be fun. Definitely was a fun factor to the trade. I tried to get RNH from Van but he is immovable apparently. Holy f***. Holy f***, dude. You evaluate players like an *******.
havok24 Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Holy f***. Holy f***, dude. You evaluate players like an *******. lol
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Wo, there are no goalies available. I think all 60 guys with NHL jobs are owned.
havok24 Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Anyone want to give me a PPG player for Nik Ehlers?
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Anyone want to give me a PPG player for Nik Ehlers? It's funny because Draisaitl is only very marginally more valuable than Ehlers.
Frag Verified Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 I trade Brian Elliott + 2nd round pick for Havoks Nikolaj Ehlers + 1st round pick. ------------------ I had a surplus of goaltending that I didn't mind trading from to gain future assets. I think Havok wins this deal right now as he's gaining back the only NHL piece (Ehlers sent back to QMJHL) but hopefully this trade will look a lot better for me in one years time. Nice dealing with you Havok, we are both stubborn. lol Not a huge fan of Elliott, but whatever.
havok24 Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Not a huge fan of Elliott, but whatever. Definitely not ideal, but I had to do something about my goaltending situation.
havok24 Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Any interest in moving the player we spoke of in the past? P.S. Are NHL rosters cutting down tomorrow? Yeah I'll contact you tomorrow around noon about that. Got to get some sleep now. Oh and yeah tomorrow would be the NHL roster cut down date I believe.
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Can someone please link me to the proboards site?
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Still won't load, it's the console. Are you still working off the console Spank? We've gotta be able to find an old laptop or something for you to use.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Are you still working off the console Spank? We've gotta be able to find an old laptop or something for you to use. Yeah using the net on console isn't the greatest. When you have to open attached documents etc, it doesn't load.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Calm down yo, I'm a busy guy! I've received 35 PMs today, although half of them are probably because every message Spanky sends, sends 3 or 4 times. lol lol Aight, get back to me whenever you can, think it fits your wants pretty well.
