Eleven Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 Fleury worst kept secret to Vegas and a pick to keep from taking aanyone else per LeBrun As in the Penguins are giving up a pick? Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 All these teams are nutty for giving away key assets to protect one player. Why is ANA worried about losing Manson or Vatanen. They have three excellent prospects to replace that player and Vatanen is injured and expensive. If they take Vatanen then they should feel likes it's Christmas. The Nyi are equally stupid. They should have protected their core forwards and exposed all the D except Leddy, Hamonic and Boychuk. Let LV choose between Hickey, DeHaan and the 2 prospects. You lose one and your group is still excellent. Minn had the most to lose and they did the right thing in protecting their forward group. Odds are they would lose Dumba without a side deal. If I were their GM I'd ask LV what it would cost to get them to take Scandella over Dumba and if the price was to high I'd say forget it. Dumba is a nice player and young, but is an Rfa after next season and will cost Risto $ to re-sign, money Minn might not have cap room for anyway. Minn is already short of draft picks and to give up Tuch and another prospect is dumba. Quote
LTS Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 That doesn't make sense.. if VGK signed Fleury he'd be considered the pick from the penguins right? Quote
darksabre Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 That doesn't make sense.. if VGK signed Fleury he'd be considered the pick from the penguins right? Fleury is still under contract so... Quote
inkman Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 In the meantime, the rest of the league is being held to ransom, the league in general is (even further) unbalanced, and I'm being told I should care about Will Carrier. Hopefully Seattle is required to pay eleventy-billion dollars so that Bettman is forced to award them Gretzky Lemieux Howe Orr Richard (all three) and Plante clones and/or robots to justify the expenditure. And we'll still have ads on the ###### jerseys. I'm sure that $17 mill every team got is quelling their concerns. Quote

Minn is already short of draft picks and to give up Tuch and another prospect is dumba. I agree but living here in Las Vegas we our gonna need a decent team from the start. I have been playing hockey in this town since 91' and hockey has grown a ton but much more is needed to grow the sport here. You are gonna have a lot of players wanting to come here. First it's a warm weather city. Second no state tax which is huge. Third Housing, nightlife and places to eat. Edited June 21, 2017 by SabresBillsFan Quote
Formerly Allan in MD Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 Good band name. Or just something to say at the appropriate time. Like he's coming up ice to dump the puck at the red line and go for a change. But the forechecker has other plans: "Negative, Sbisa. The pattern is full." Get carried away, dontcha. Quote
Thorner Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 That doesn't make sense.. if VGK signed Fleury he'd be considered the pick from the penguins right? LeBrun saying on Twitter that since the list if available goalies is strong, Pens had to entice Vegas with the added Pick. Quote
Scottysabres Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 Any chance at all Bots does a deal with Vegas for one of these defensemen? Quote

GASabresIUFAN Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) This is the LV team I have come up with noting the 2 deals we know about and looking at a series of mock drafts. The player I choose was the one who appeared in the most mock drafts or made the best position/contract sense. Ana: Stoner & Theodore AZ: McGinn Bos: Subban Buf: Carrier Clg: Brouwer Car: Stempniak Chi: TVR Col: Grigorenko Cbs: Karlsson Dal: Eakin Det: Ouellet Edm: Reinhart Fla: Marchessault (although I expect this to change with a side deal) LA: McNabb Min: Haula and Tuch Mon: Hudon Nsh: Neal NJ: Merrill NYI: DeHaan NYR: Raanta Ott: Methot Phi: Raffl Pit: Fleury SJ: Schlemko (or Dillon) Stl: Perron TB: Dotchin Tor: Rychel Van: Gaunce Wash: Grubauer Wpg: Dano Cost: 50.7 Contracts 21 G: 4 D: 10 + Theodore F: 16 + Tuch Edited June 21, 2017 by GASabresFan Quote
SabresBillsFan Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) I think a lot of players are part of three way deals after expansion draft. Goalies especially along with some defenseman. I wondering how many extra picks we wind up with. I wonder if they keep Theodore or move him because he could fetch some nice return. Edited June 21, 2017 by SabresBillsFan Quote
North Buffalo Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) Reporting Eakin to Dallas seems correct. https://twitter.com/knights_on_ice/status/877560108141559808 Edited June 21, 2017 by North Buffalo Quote
MattPie Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 If the Flyers give up #2 to protect a player, they are nutty. I have to think it's #2 for #6 and some other stuff. Still nutty, but not as nutty as #2 alone. Quote
SabresBillsFan Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 I would give them Theodore and NYI 1st rounder for #2. This way Vegas has pick 2 and 6. I really doubt anything happens with pick 2 unless a goalie or d-man involved. Quote
Thorner Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 I have to think it's #2 for #6 and some other stuff. Still nutty, but not as nutty as #2 alone. Makes more sense. Quote
WildCard Posted June 21, 2017 Report Posted June 21, 2017 Vegas to take Perron from the Blues https://www.fanragsports.com/news/report-golden-knights-set-select-david-perron-blues/ Quote
Brawndo Posted June 21, 2017 Author Report Posted June 21, 2017 So VGK is believed to be at Theodore, Stoner, Fleury, Eakin, Clarkson, Grabovski, Smith, Marchessault, Haula... Per Dellow Quote
