Robviously Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Penguins trade Tyler Kennedy to Sharks for 50th pick So theoretically, Drew Stafford is worth at least that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorenzo Von Matterhorn Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Sharks way overpaid for Kennedy he's a healthy scratch every other game, he does great things on the ice but for a 2nd in this draft no way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 I gave the example previously of a company selling a product at a $20 margin, which currently sells 100 units/month. Is that a good choice if dropping the price $10 (to a $10 margin) would increase sales to 300 units/month? Is the question whether $20/unit is better than $10/unit or is the question whether $2000/month is better than $3000/month? If, hypothetically, Darcy does overvalue his players, then every trade that actually goes through will look good. Darcy was a breath away from not getting anything for Gaustad, because he wouldn't take a first. It's not too hard to imagine that he had passed on reasonable deals throughout the day on the chance that some fool would actually give him his ridiculous asking price. In this case, somebody did. Great. However, how has not making many fair deals for guys like Connolly, Roy, Stafford, etc, meaning that those players stuck around for far too long, affected the team build as a whole? Well we don't know, but it's silly to assume that trading players for whatever you can get is always a winning move. The argument is Darcy's winning trades are overshadowed by the hypothetical trades he could have made if he didn't deal so hard? Please. The fact that Darcy has been successful numerous times suggests he has a better grasp of player values than Bucky or Sully do. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eleven Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 1. NJ got Schneider cheap! 2. Can we please try to keep this to actual trades and serious rumors? I think we have other threads for fantasies and proposals. And dammit, Niederrieter gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
