I think Larkin would garner a tonne more than you're stating, plus our disgruntled captain just wants to see more committment to winning. Buffalo would want players instead of high picks back and the same with Minny. Since both teams would be asking for Kasper in return maybe offer sheeting the two forwards is a better idea?
-
I wouldnt mind any of the three considering the price is right. However, Sabres fans do not have good things to say about Byram. Their take is he had really good partners to lean on in Colorado, but when he joined buffalo that dissapeared and he could not drive his own pairing. Peterka and Rossi are both very good. Both are German speakers. With us having Marco and Mo... id honestly explore both. And I'd ship out our disgruntled captain to do it. Fully invest in this generation of players and let Larks move on. Trade Larkin, Ras, and Berggren for Rossi and Peterka.

Bowen for me.

What would be everyone's choice between going after Peterka, Rossi or Bowen?

Misa is a monster. Yes please.
-
Id rather pay a bit of a higher price and get them to eat 25% of the contract. $8.7m is a lot more stomachable then that $11.6m imo. Yzerman should be doing what he can to upgrade this team now. We need to start pushing the chips in while Larkin/DeBrincat are in their prime Seider/Raymond are on discount contracts and Edvinsson/Kasper are on ELCs. Speaking on Edvinsson he should be extended this offseason. $8.5m x 8. Danielson/13th overall/other prospects/picks for any of Pettersson (retained), Peterka, Robertson, Byram, Miller, etc.

2025 NHL Draft - June 27-28 ; To Tank or Not To Tank

Yes. Same goes for 13 overall. That has to be in play this summer. -
Schaeffer or Misa, depending on who went 1st. I'm not confident ASP translates to anything more than Ghost-Bear on small ice.
-
Where ya been Jimmy?
- Last week
-
TroyDog in tonight for Klingberg.
-
Throw him in at 50% to acquire Isaac Howard's rights. Berggren, Tarasenko (50%) and give them back their 4th rounder this year.
-
I'm very glad to hear that Tarasenko is rumored to be on the block. Maybe we will have an offseason of Yzerman fixing problems instead of creating them again.
-
I would go for that. ASP has basically been the best player in Sweden the last few years. He's racking up accolades and awards quickly. Nabbing him and moving down 11 spots in a very weak draft is a no brainer to me. I dont think ASP is the next Lidstrom, but he does seem to have Erik Karlsson level potential.
-
There's always one dink GM that wrecks it for anyone making a realistic offer for Petey. (Compher+Ras+2nd) I would hope SY puts forth the effort to get him without going overboard. At some point the Nucks will take that offer or similar, unless that one dink GM appears. His full NTC comes in effect July 1st as well. VCR would want to move him before then wouldn't they? Kreider and a 4th to the Ducks for forward prospect Carey Terrance and a 3rd. Wow. I doubt they would go for that. Who would you take with 2OA?
-
Normally I'd expect 90 plus pts as well for that paycheck - however that financial albatross is sumthin I could see Vancouver wanting to part ways with...This is why I'd offer not much in return since one can argue the value of his contract. To me - regardless of his cap hit - would he make this team better - and would we possibly rid ourselves of some undesirable contracts too by sending them packing to Vancouver? According to many at HF Boards ASP is a bonafide star in the making...Forgive my ignorance, but is any 1 of the top 3 players projected to do much at the NHL level? And they owe us 'future considerations'.....

IMO Danielson is very likely a future NHLer, but not a great one. For the right player do it. -
-
Would an offer of ASP and #13 get San Jose's attention for 2OA?
-
At $11.6m for 7 more years he better be putting up more then 60pts especially how soft he plays. Hed have to be a 90pt line driver that can take some of the weight off Larkin's shoulders. If theres questions he can be that - pass.

13 - trade it. 44 - anyone over another goalie. 75/76 - thatd be a cool story. Im down. 119 - Any Swedes selected by Hakan Im a-ok with. Speaking of German's Yzerman needs to do whatever he can to acquire Peterka. Danielson, 13th overall - make it happen. -
-
As a Wings fan I'd certainly entertain that offer as long as we can send as little as possible in return (as in quality players, prospects, draft picks). If he could center our 2nd line and provide 60 some plus pts he might be worth it.

2025 NHL Draft - June 27-28 ; To Tank or Not To Tank

With this draft apparently being rather average at best our 13th overall pick might be worth packaging up to acquire a quality player from a rival who may be facing cap crunch. -

LeftWinger replied to LeftWinger's topic in General
My first four rounds: With #13 OA, I draft Carter Bear. With our 2nd round pick (#44) I draft G Jack Ivankovic (because Cossa or Augustine will become trade bait after a few years) With our TWO back to back 3rd round picks (#75 & #76) I draft The Griva Twins out of Germany. With our 4th round pick (#119) I draft LHD Aron Dahlqvist - Earlier
-
I wouldn't pay much for Petey. I think the Canucks would part with him for next to nothing to get from under his contract. Compher + Ras + 2nd
-
Sounds like Ol trashhill is the next HC for the hawks
-
Ya, but what would you pay for him? Larkin isn't being traded, neither is MBN, ASP, Danielson or Kasper. Would they take the #13 OA along with a lower prospect? Maybe a B Tier NHL roster player? If they'd take, lets say #13, Rasmussen, and 2nd round pick and maybe Wallinder or Tuomisto or maybe add Berggren?
