https://thecanuckway.com/2017/04/12/canucks-trading-2017-nhl-draft/ i think he means this article you always read about restocking the farm system but i think the canucks need top end talent and not a bunch of grinders or even nice-to-have top six guys. swapping firsts for a second or a third round pick doesn't really help them there edit: also, their example of the coyotes trading for chychrun doesn't help their case because in this situation they are the red wings, who currently resent not getting chychrun hifi fucked around with this message at 17:40 on Apr 13, 2017 |

the talent deficit posted:what qualifies mcguire to be a gm? the fact he knows the name of every CHL coach? john lynch recently went from NFL career to the broadcast booth straight to a GM job so the only qualification for mcguire that matters is that he's a talking head on tv, and any amount of professional coaching and scouting is the whipped cream and cherry on top

could chicago have kept teuvo and bickell? chicago didn't really make any deadline deals either. people poo poo on the vermette trade a while back because he sucked in the regular season but he put up 7 points in 20 goals, which is looking better than the hanzal deal right now. it's been thrown around but it really does feel like we're in a new age of hockey now that chicago lost and LA didn't make it

1 year 4 million left isn't really a terrible deal. I wonder if the hawks knew that bickell had MS then they could have forced him on IR with the promise that he could play in the playoffs, if he could.

The problem with the leafs trading for OEL specifically is that the coyotes are only somewhere between 1 and 3 years away from being done with their own rebuild so fair value in picks that the coyotes would want is like 3 or 4 firsts spread over this and next year's draft. If the avs are shipping people off for real now I think it'd be easier to trade for barrie

That one took me by surprise, but Custance doesn’t just throw garbage at the wall and I think he’s on to something. That says he’s a legit contender, if the Coyotes allow permission. https://twitter.com/craigsmorgan/status/857404282257129472 what a weird thing to even put out there

coyotes fired their powerplay specialist newell brown and ahl affiliate GM doug soetaert. i liked the powerplay when they had guys that could run it but there's been zero adaptation and their zone entries have been pitiful.

My understanding was all the GMs thought dubnyk was done before he got to arizona, so I'm not sure "only one bad year" is selling it right. And then on top of that this was at the tail end of coyotes goalies having hot years and going elsewhere to suck, so Dubnyk really wasn't the sure bet you seem to be making him out to be. Maybe chad johnson or greiss would be better comparisons, although there's a bunch of comparisons with bad goalies that probably fit as well. That said Darling bouncing between the echl and the ahl and also being fairly old with limited nhl starts makes signing him to a 4 year deal interesting to say the least. I guess if he really does suck then it's not like he really screws with whatever playoff window the canes have in mind. edit: and with respect to salary, it doesn't really matter how much he costs relative to other starting goalies because if he sucks then suddenly you have a 4.5MM backup goalie and your goalie tandem costs 10MM like dallas hifi fucked around with this message at 02:13 on May 6, 2017 |

Going back to the market value argument someone above had, I think if he gets his 4.5MM deal on the open market then fine, that's what he's worth, but trading a 3rd for a month of his rights and then signing him to what sounds like a UFA-cost deal isn't a good use of the team's resources. It's slightly better than lighting your pick on fire for the privilege of hearing jimmy vesey's voice on the phone.

Xtanstic posted:I believe this is the case on the Coyotes? They fired a couple of people a few weeks ago and I think someone was exclusively the PP guy. Yeah, newell brown. Same thing with football and basketball, I think the offensive-minded head coach gets the most attention, but you can look at who draws up the plays on the whiteboard during a timeout, and it's not so rare that it's a guy other than the head coach.

I would already assume they're out of the running though, some other team can make a blackhawks style trade to throw prospects they don't need at the devils though. The oilers?

I'm not missing anything and the devils can retain salary on kovalchuk too, right? Maybe they think their window is open until guys like cammalleri's deal is over but they could do something like give him a 8-10MMx3 deal and retain half of that and maybe get 2 firsts and a roster player.
