Kiefer sherwood of the LW variety and 40 points which we don't need (though he shoots right)? I don't think he moves the needle at all (or very much anyway) and doesn't help us towards the playoffs. And you create another huge hole by trading Byram

I became enamored by his 460 hits last year.  Next closest was Olivier at 305.  Don’t follow Vancouver so could that be incorrect?  Regardless I agree we’d have a need at D but figured we could pick up a stay at home guy in the $2-$3M range.

Yeah I back of my judgment if he hit that much??

Why would Vegas do this?  Why not just wait a couple days and get him without having to give Toronto anything?  Will Mitch not sign unless he gets an 8 year deal?

My guess would be it could be a masterful manner of tampering legally.

If you request to trade for a UFA in a sign&trade you can talk to the player. He's said he won't do 8 years now so a trade isn't necessary.

No you’re forgetting josh doan - unless we trade for someone benson is on the 1st line and Doan on the 3rd 

 

either way Doan us in that lineup somewhere likely 3rd line - they didn’t trade for him to sit him

If we dress a lineup where Bensin is in the first line the season is over before it begins.
