Konnan511 1,736 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) Mike Fisher and Versteeg are both worth first round picks and more eh? This is why I am happy Holland is our GM. Sometimes the deals he doesn't make are the best. Edited February 14, 2011 by Konnan511 1 Nev reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 Mike Fisher and Versteeg are both worth first round picks and more eh? Fixed. And I suppose. Versteeg will be a real nice fit for this team. Philly just getting stronger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes the deals he doesn't make are the best. Well some 1st round picks dont even end up in the NHL. I suppose if they want a *sure* thing than yes this is a good deal.

wingsdiehard13 33 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 A 1st and a 3rd for Versteeg is overpayment. Philly didn't want to give up a roster player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rick Zombos Ghost 82 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 A 1st and a 3rd for Versteeg is overpayment. Philly didn't want to give up a roster player. I would assume its going to be a very late 1st round pick as they are currently going to end in the top 3 of the conference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, they went with the win now at all costs approach for a decent young player. Edited February 14, 2011 by Konnan511 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Original-Six 254 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) wow Philly is going to be scary. If they weren't cup favorites before hand they defiantly are now assuming they go into the playoffs healthy. That's really not much of a overpayment either(if any) imo. Hes young and is a proven 20 goal+ player with solid playoff numbers. Edited February 14, 2011 by Original-Six Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Konnan511 1,736 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 So no matter your age, 40-55 point potential gets you at least a first and another early round draft pick. Seems steep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rick Zombos Ghost 82 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 Agreed, they went with the win now at all costs approach for a decent young player. he has more points than Filppula the last 2 seasons and i dont think kenny would give him up for a 1st and 3rd rounder, so i dont think they overpaid. maybe im wrong. i am a stupidhead after all.

MacK_Attack 108 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 Considering the mish-mash of underwhelming prospects Burke gave up for Versteeg, getting a 1st rounder back is pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's 24 years old? Holland would turn that down because Filppula is the better player. Filppula is superior defensively, but Versteeg has a slight edge offensively. Yes, he's 24? Mike Fisher got the same trade value and he's much older. Wow, they are going to completely roll over The Nucks in the finals.

St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422 Report post Posted February 15, 2011 Wow. Philly is looking very scary now. Surprised that Burke made this deal tbh. But then again maybe not. I wanna say Burke isn't finished trading yet.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DatsyukianDekes 2,428 Report post Posted February 15, 2011 If Burke doesn't flip those picks into a good/decent roster player than I think the leafs lost yet another trade. Being picked in the first round doesn't guarantee a good player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
