Mr. MVP

I agree. Let’s say Bennett never fights. Would you say he is soft?

Adams is not trading Power.

That offer Wouldn’t be enough. But didn’t they just fire the coach because they chose oettinger over him?

Eh. He’s dookie.

Are they going to need to make moves to keep everyone under the cap? And if we trade for them then they won’t have a choice (barring a nmc).

I don’t think he’s here to help us. We’re here to help him. I think Adams is just helping his buddy get his end of playing career started.

I’ve said falling back those two spots couples haunt us.

Y’all notice Jacks neck has never been an issue since leaving Buffalo?

Can he play defence?

Shoot. Works for us.

Is there a reason Blues would want to do this?

Maybe we need all the stars of this team to go directly to Terry and tell him they want out if there’s no changes. Something big needs to happen for Terry to wake up. Dahlin was a start. Now we need more.

Let’s say we choose to keep Byram for this upcoming season. He won’t sign a long term contract but he won’t want to sit a year, right? Is that when it would go to arbitration? Is he likely to get paid big if he does? I say keep him unless some team is willing to overpay. Worst case we suck again next year and we trade him at the deadline.

We have team control of Byram for one more year?

Was Krebs ever on the Top Prospect Team? (Joking). But I think Helenius has more value than Krebs ever did. Östlund is probably similar though. I just happen to like Östlund a lot.

This thread took a turn….

I’m starting to get a sense that we aren’t making the pick at 9.

Actually, your offers are probably more realistic with Adams at the helm, but we like to dream here in Sabre space. Ha

You’re probably awesome as a person, but your trade offers are terrible. lol. The Bahl Klapka one is worse though. lol

Dang. That’s crazy. And some BS if/when it happens.

They want McKenna.

Maybe this is the way. Maybe Vegas and other teams who continue to trade for the correct players is the right way to go. They seem to find a way to let the bottom teams grow their draft picks and then trade for them at the right time. I honestly wish we could do that. But we have Kevyn Adams as GM and he is incapable of doing that. So I have to hope at some point these young kids finally put it together and we become a power house for many years to come because of the way we built this team

OK then. I’m guessing the average age of the people that have commented recently about trading our future to win now are a bit older. The ones of you where it comes across that you don’t seem to care about this team in 5 years. I’m 45. So I’ve been through the drought and I know what it’s been like. And I’m not saying don’t trade any of our prospects by the way. It’s just coming off by some of you that the future doesn’t matter to you at all and all you care about is winning now. And I don’t understand that.

Ok. Touché. But expansion.

I know these sports writer “experts” aren’t always right. But most lists I’ve seen have Byram as one of the top and priciest trade assets on the market. No reason he should pull in an underwhelming return.
