Thread: Today is Eichel day
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMarch</b></div><div>As for the trade, I think the payment DET is making is over value for Eichel, especially because he's got a big contract. It's similar to the Marner argument. If TOR trades Marner and that contract, no way they can get full value. But the only way TOR trades him is if they get close to full value. But, there is no way BUF takes any less either.</div></div>

I understand they want a center, but they're getting our most talented player, our second best prospect, an UNPROTECTED 1st, and 2 defensive wild cards plus a pick. I understand quality&gt;quantity, but there is not a single non roster piece going back BUF's way. Mantha is first line. Cholo is top 6 immediately. Veleno projects as a 2/3c and Tuomisto was just named MVP of his league.

Thread: My ideal team for next season
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Canucks33</b></div><div>I don't think you should have the mindset that your high 1st rounder should be in the NHL next year. If it were my decision I would even send Byfield back. Lafreniere is the only one I would probably keep as of right now.</div></div>

Byfield is gonna be in a Rasmussen situation where he's too good for junior and not good enough for the NHL. Should be in the AHL but can't. Stutzle however I think is also NHL ready or very close to it after playing against men last year. I'm not worried about his transition to NA ice. Rossi I keep hearing is also NHL ready but will probably get a 9 game tryout with whoever drafts him. Lundell is the only other player I've heard could make the jump but he doesn't have the ceiling these other guys have.
