Rasmus_ Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 I find this a terrible return outside of Krebs. Tuch, is a fine forward, but at the same time this is very shallow. How much longer will Fleury be elite. He is 37 years old. I understand how solid he's been over his career, but this is a #1 center, and will easily be the best forward on their roster. Yes, even over Mark Stone. The first is basically a 2nd, and the 2nd is a third. Meh. This is a crap return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkman Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Hey Canadian SS posters! Why do Canadians pronounce Vegas differently? The standard US pronunciation lies somewhere is the original Spanish derivation, with a long A resulting in Vaygus. What I hear when Canadians say it (mostly from TV & radio personalities) is more along the lines of Vahgus. Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only assume it’s from adherence to English pronunciation rules where the “e” is soft but what is missing from the equation is the Hispanic roots of the word.

Maybe I'll be wrong here but I don't see much more than an average NHL player there. And he definitely doesn't pass the name test.

thewookie1 Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 Here's a monster trade Glass, Krebs, Tuch, Smith, Reaves, Fleury, Holden and VGK's 1sts in 2021 and 2022 for Eichel, Olofsson and Ristolainen(50%) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewookie1 Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 What's Glass like? I'd imagine a Vegas trade would be more or less a fleecing job(as much as you can when still trading the best player) due to Vegas's "go big or go home" strategy.

Same draft year and. position as Mitts, done less in the NHL and, really, not as much in the AHL either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He fell a little in the draft as a result. He has lit it up since then and he will be in the AHL/NHL next season. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rasmus_ Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 By the time we're relevant Fleury is gone. He's a UFA after next season. I don't understand the fascination with trading for a 37 year old goalie. Yes, he's a great netminder, I don't doubt it. Where is the realization, that our team defense is a barn fire, we have no center depth trading Eichel, and this makes me puke. Yes, it moves him out West, but just ***** no. Krebs, Tuch are appealing, but there's nothing else. A late 1st and a 2nd, for Jack Eichel. Just no.

Thorny Posted June 25, 2021 Report Share Posted June 25, 2021 (edited) What if Vegas, fresh off a disappointing loss to the Habs, none too thrilled with Mark Stone’s performance this series, call you up and offer Mark Stone for Eichel. 1 for 1. Would you rather have Mark Stone or 3rd overall, Comtois, and pieces? Would Vegas trade Mark Stone for 3OA, Comtois, and pieces?

You think that Mark Stone can guide a team by himself where Eichel failed by himself... You either build around Eichel or reset. By the time you build around Stone he'll be 31 or 32.
