Batherson and McCan have effectively the same value.

Close in age, same salary, same term left on contract, very similar production.

yeah they’re probably pretty close, i just value the centre a bit more

Everyone wonders if Norris can stay healthy. In terms of value it's close, but Norris' history makes me hesitant. He'd be a great 2C if he doesn't get hurt.

So with that being the case, I'd want more for Chychrun than Dumoulin and a 2nd.

that that being said that i think mccann is more valuable than batherson?

True but the difference in value doesn't make up for the return.

****, I’d take McCann over Batherson, no problem. I like the way McCann plays. Has an attitude about him out there…plays w chip on shoulder. Batherson is very good, very skilled, but to me doesn’t show that nasty side

more stupid trades... why is OTT trading their ONLY under 36 RW for a LW they have no need for? and getting next to nothing for chych, Ehlers is a left shot winger..... would not touch McCann with a 10 foot pole, was invisible and did nothing untill he came to SEA is 2 years older than Bath, too risky and a bad trade

I think that if OTT is set on moving Norris then the Flames will be in on it.

It's hard to tell which pieces would be in the discussions, probably your pick from Mangiapane, Sharangovich, Kuzmenko, and Coleman, along with futures/prospects.

I think if the sens are moving norris out to GCY they would be looking to go after weegar

I think that would be a little too risky for CGY. Weegar has shown he is at least a $6.5M D-men. Norris has yet to live up to the 8M price tag.

i think you need to broaden your perspectives to more than just ottawa. Mccann is good and had been for years, finally got a top 6 spot on Seattle and took off. Hes also a centre not a LW, and has historically played a better 2-way game than batherson at every single stop. 2 years older sure but their contracts run the same length and neither of them are actually "old". Ehlers is left shot who has played RW his whole career, so im not too sure why that matters, if it means that much then trade MJ for a righty or get WPG to send appleton instead of iafallo.
