Timashov wasn't under contract anyway, so likely not the reason for the move, but I do expect Yzerman to make another trade or two in the coming days / week...

krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted December 12, 2020 43 minutes ago, Wait&Sneed said: It's odd because first Yzerman seemed fine to let him depart to Europe. Then the rumors of expanded 26 man rosters started and it seemed like a deal would get done then. If he's letting him go now he's likely making room for Tyler Johnson or Alex Killorn or both Again, Timashov was not under contract, so he did not need to be moved to make room for anyone, regardless what trade may be in the works.

krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted December 12, 2020 36 minutes ago, Wait&Sneed said: And now he definitely wont, or need to be, under contract with the Johnson rumors heating up! Nope, and I'd take Johnson and a 1st round pick, plus another asset, over Timashov (waiver claim). Just get the deal done already... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What I wouldn't do, hasn't changed. I would not take Johnson AND Killorn for just a 1st round pick. I'd want a 1st, plus another pick and / or prospect for Johnson, and at least a 2nd for Killorn. We're not at the point in our rebuild where we can afford to be giving up futures for past their prime players. I can't believe this s*** has to be explained here...

Ur almost there... just embrace it You said we would have to give up assets to get Killorn, not the other way around... I then said, Yzerman would be dumb to give up assets (aka futures) to acquire a past his prime winger. Try to keep up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a good thing what you say in *other* threads can't be brought up in this one... Otherwise, you'd look really dumb... I don't blame you for bailing in the other thread, and continuing the conversation here, where we can't discuss the dumb things you said over there...

If you'd stay on topic maybe I wouldn't confused about futures in a timashov thread No, you definitely didn't derail this thread by bringing up "Tyler Johnson or Alex Killorn"...

Seems relevant to me. And what you said on the exact topic, in another thread was also relevant... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
