Yup, if EF is right, I'm going to bet that's the Isles 3rd and conditional 5th from the Hawks that we're offering. Which would honestly restore a bit of faith in Pizza Boy if that's our offer. That's probably Tanev's actual value.
Tanev for cheap would be decent.
Would prefer to Go for someone better. Someone here for the long term.
I think Conroy might be able to squeeze more out of edmonton or vancouver who are also hot after Tanev.
Is Tanev better than Brodie?
My main requests going into the deadline are that we don’t burn any more assets acquiring ancient players or rentals that won’t be here and able to contribute for at least 2-3 more seasons.
So Chris Tanev is pretty much the perfect poster boy for the kind of player I don’t want us to acquire. Even if it’s only for a couple of middling picks.
Top pair or bustYeah, give me a Muzzin deal or what we were trying to do with Brodie in the Naz deal. Go get someone real gud who has term or we've touched base with and know they're good with re-upping before they hit free agency and we're good with their numbers on it.
I mean if he doesn’t jettison a bunch of assets for bottom line scrubs and does nothing instead, we arguably come out aheadTre is really preserving the suspense with his refusal to do anything between the UFA signings and the trade deadline.
I hope he pleasantly surprises.
I feel like we've got pretty good forward depth. If you have the balls to trade Bertuzzi and see if you can improve on his cap hit, go for it, but it's pretty much inconceivable that Tre would dump him and roll the dice, or that there'd be anything better out there worth getting that wouldn't cost us.I mean if he doesn’t jettison a bunch of assets for bottom line scrubs and does nothing instead, we arguably come out ahead
Eh, Blues were most active team offseason of 2018 and then were on such a heater at the trade deadline, it wouldn't make sense to make any big moves.Heard on the broadcast today that when St Louis won the cup they added only Michael del zotto at the deadline. And last year Florida added nothing?
I know we have issues on the back end but adding a big name could mess up the chemistry.
Holmberg and Mcmann are also showing promise of showing us that we may have what we need on the bottom six. Trade Kampf for a bigger, faster 4C
