Let me guess, there’s going to be a player “too good to pass up”, right?

Will root for him his whole career

Heartbreaking and poignant

Why the eye roll it’s just a lineup lol

Trading 9 for Rust would be a no brainer imo. It’s an asset we’ve never known and will never miss for a legitimate top 6 player. Can’t we value the moment? We don’t need the pick. Forget about “market value” as determined by EA sports just one time

Agree. This is so off putting $$$$$

And it’s still hedging. Cut bait and trade the pick. Don’t limit the “now” return to keep draft pick value

I just don’t think Rosen is going to fetch Rust. 9-12 I don’t think is a big deal

Rust - Kulich - Thompson Benson - Norris - Tuch Zucker - McLeod - Doan Greenway - Krebs - Quinn .. better? edit - personally I think it makes a substantial difference. At least a positive start. If I could do 9 for Rust straight up (they keep 12, we keep Helenius) I’d jump on it

I’m sort of annoyed the reports say we’d be angling for like a 12th overall pick back in moving 9. Just a complete refusal to commit trade the pick outright, then you don’t have to add

I didn’t want them to move Peterka at all. We are a forward short without him(and presumably even were, with him, given your eval on him) - you just said it. But, there’s a reasonable chance at this point they are happy switching Peterka out for Doan, and the big add being Kesselring I think we should prepare for the possibility Kesselring is the big add. we do know Adams really liked him

Better hope so

I usually see Quinn on right but ya on the left a lot too. Not worried about the functionality there merely the overall talent and aptitude of the group

I’m inclined to agree - but I do think if we are going to pry that asset it will have to come from Byram or the 9 overall. Could be down 50% of those assets shortly

The blinding light brigade Cozens et al

^ could easily be the roster if Adams feels he isn’t getting enough for 9 and just keeps it. Byram market weak so he extends him and attempts to go with D as the strength

Well I’d imagine one of Thomson Tuch Quinn and Doan will need to play off wing unless one is on line 4. And even then, someone needs to take JJ’s spot. Don’t see Tuch or Thompson going over and Doan is Doan. I’d imagine Quinn is in the top 6 (or at least top 9) on the left if we don’t add another top 6 F

Quinn - Kulich - Thompson Benson - Norris - Tuch Zucker - McLeod - Doan Greenway - Krebs - Malenstyn Byram - Dahlin Power - Kesselring Samuelsson - Clifton UPL Levi

Quinn - Kulich - Thompson Benson - Norris - Tuch Zucker - McLeod - Doan

10 cents. 2 cents were free

Adams ace in the hole this offseason

Contract is fine. - - - on a more macro level complete with perspective: We were told Adams couldn’t improve the team or spend to cap for 5 years to save room for our RFAs. Peterka is gone. Quinn signed for 3 million. Looking into whether the strategy was a good one now.

Both bordering on elite one way. Same difference
