Panic trades have been his biggest downfall. I have no problem if they keep No. 10 and just take the best player available, regardless of position, but something tells me he will panic again. #10 for Cody Ceci, yeah?

byz Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Probably need to include a 2nd for him though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree, jroc. It's a scary day for Edm fans. If Chia-Pete hadn't got in his own way, we'd be sitting on the current Ted Lindsay, Art Ross, Hart and Calder trophy winners, with Lucic and Larsson gone, and have over 5M more in cap space to spend on D. Ikes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill0755 Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Heard that Brassard might be the backup alternative to O’Reilly for Les Canadians. Not really sure what comes back to the Pens in this deal other than some draft picks. Find it very hard to believe after all GMJR gave up to acquire Brassard that he would turn around and deal him, but guess anything is possible.

Salros Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Mikko Koskinen is a very goal goalie. Could Edmonton be convinced he's a viable #1 starting goalie? I think they might. As a Talbot owner and the present uncertainty of Crawford, I'd be happy if Talbot when to Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACTUALLY can you imagine selling Tavares a discount contract of around 9.5-10.5 m x7 to play on a top Squad like Pittsburgh And having the pens turn around and Trade away Malkin for a Kings Ransom that would be SO AMAZING Just think about it,... Going foward Tavares Probably a better player than malkin OVERALL.. and they can get an awesome return on malkin like HUGE if that isnt PERFECT asset Management.... Hell you can turn around and send malkin to WPG for Trouba + how awesome would the jets look with Malkin+Scheiffle down the middle, and pittsburgh turns Malkin in Tavares+trouba... and btw....... the #$ works.............. I should be an nhl gm Edited June 22, 2018 by Vegeta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill0755 Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Being a Pens fan my preference would be to keep Geno. It’s NEVER going happen with Tavares. I would be stunned if he did not resign in NY and NY will likely convince him they will be making a major upgrade in goal, and probably go aggressively after John Carlson.

Vegeta Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 would you really Keep Geno Over Tavares at this point of their career if they made similar $ Id prefer Tavares tbh maybe not the next 2 years but beyond that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve actually had the good fortune to see Koskinen play against Talbot live. I was sitting behind the net so I watched both goalies a lot. Talbot’s team won, but Koskinen was the better goalie in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, it doesn't mean we Oilers fans won't be hitting the sauce hard if Talbot should be moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
