Marvin Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Given the low bar that hockey media people have to clear to publish something about rumours, I think I should have majored in sports journalism. Making rumours like this has got to be the easiest paying gig out there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjd1001 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 We really need to get to the point where actual player moves are happening. These boards had some members going at each other pretty hard in conversations that started with who they would protect and got way off topic. We just need some actual player moves so we can discuss lineups, analytics of the players involved....etc. Right now so little has gone on that we are just grasping at anything that is simply a topic to discuss, no matter how crazy it is. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I disagree, but there has been surprisingly few concrete rumours and discussions about what a Reinhart return might be, considering that it will one of the more important moves this team has made since The selloff for the tank.

PromoTheRobot Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 I'll be really disappointed of Sam goes. I really thought they'd keep him around at least till trade deadline. He showed leadership in the last of half of the season. He'd be a great guy to have on a young team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the clip it Alex comes off as a mature kid beyond his years who also has a passion for the game. Wouldn't it be exciting to come away with Turcotte and Zegras as pieces from a Jack and Samson trade? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's understood by all parties involved in the trades that when Jack and Samson get dealt we are losing the better players. That doesn't mean that the returns in the long run won't make the roster better. If I had my preference I would want to keep both of our players. But that isn't going to happen. So you adjust to the situation as best you can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASabresIUFAN Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Don't we want a player + for Ristolainen? It seems like the standard rumor amount. Not to little, but not crazy either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think at this point somebody has mentioned just about every possibility so in that sense somebody'\s going to be right. If ALL of this isn't resolved by the end of the draft, it's going to be a long long off season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to get the "core" players that have been here and gone through all the losing out of here. Regardless of how good they are. They are jaded and are not going to ever be able to get past that to be successful here. That's just how it is. In any organization, the players who have only lost year after year after year just need to be shipped out. They are lost, their mental ability to get past that is gone. They are beat down, and only think negatively about their time here and as soon as something goes bad, they think "here we go again". It kills their drive, their motivation, and we need to get rid of them before they poison the rest of the young team with their mindset. In essence, we need to move Eichel, Reinhart and Risto to save Dahlin, Cozens and the other young players that will form the backbone of this team as the "new core".

We might send the best player out in these deals (though I don't think it's ridiculous to think one or both of Zegras/Turcotte could become better than at least Samson) but if we get two top six players who are young and a handful of other useful pieces then we come out of it in a good place. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
