thewookie1 Posted Thursday at 06:03 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:03 PM Well that's a start I guess; moves down a hair and picks up a 2nd. More assets to use in another deal. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted Thursday at 06:07 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:07 PM Maybe we really do want to draft Jett Luchanko? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted Thursday at 06:08 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:08 PM I’m surprised that both teams don’t let the board shake out a bit before making this deal. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is definitely a precursor trade; we have plans to make another deal but are looking to stretch are assets as much as possible. Let's say Winnipeg wants a mid 1st for Ehlers; no reason we'd need to give them 11. 14 is more mid 1st. I could even see us deal further down and collect more 2nds in order to use those extras to make a separate trade. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted Thursday at 06:12 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:12 PM Like most moves the “why” matters. Right now this is neither good, nor bad, on its own. Value is fine. What does this set up? Anything? Getting an extra prospect means nothing to me. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought it that way, but it makes sence, the 2nd as a sweetener. And a trade is better than a buyout. Let's hope you are right. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorny Posted Thursday at 06:15 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:15 PM I am the “trade down makes sense” guy so, there’s that if we don’t trade one of these picks or prospects in the next couple days I’d have to say I hate it, though 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjd1001 Posted Thursday at 06:19 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:19 PM I don't know how I feel about this. On one hand, there may not be a huge difference or much of a difference at all in the quality of the guy you get at 14 compared to 11. But on the other side, why take a chance... A second round pick sounds good, but, with the sabers pipeline the way it is and how long a guy you take in the second round is likely to take to reach the NHL... I don't see that pick.. If it's used... Bringing in a player that will make a significant impact on this team for a very very very long time if at all. Hopefully that second round pick was acquired because you need to use it to trade with another team for an existing player off their roster. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta believe (do I?) this is a precursor to something significant upcoming. On it's face, it makes no sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASabresIUFAN Posted Thursday at 06:23 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:23 PM Whatever. Adams better do something positive with this collection of “assets.” I would be happy with Brandsegg-Nygard at 14. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
French Collection Posted Thursday at 06:24 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:24 PM So 14 is where you hope one of the “top 10” drop. You could get an Helenius, Eiserman, Sennecke, Yakemchuk or Brandsegg-Nygard. Or you could reach a bit for Jiricek, Stolberg, Beaudoin.

CallawaySabres Posted Thursday at 06:24 PM Report Share Posted Thursday at 06:24 PM Any other team in the draft, this is a good trade. Why our idiot would do this now. Makes no sense to me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
