The Fucking Season Thread - Redemption Tour '22

Still don't see why we would move a dman out a month before the deadline.

I guess if a dermott or Holl were crucial to a trade for a better player maybe. But if so dubas would go out and add another depth dman before the deadline to get back to 8.
 
If he sees Dermott as an asset just wasting away that they don't have room for, it makes sense to move him, especially if they like the new Lyu guy.

The math would have to be that Dermott being cheap this year and next, still fairly young (just turned 25) and pretty good (he slots into a lot of top 4's around the league) is a good asset going outward, and getting a plug #7-8 on deadline day is relatively easy.

Here's last year's deadline plug deals

- Jordie Benn for a 6th
- Bowey and a 5th for a 4th
- Hutton for a 5th
- Gudbranson for a 7th
- Kulikov for conditional 4th
- Coburn for a 7th
- Merrill for Rando prospect and 5th
- Montour for 3rd
- Nemeth for 4th

But if muzzin or rielly or sandin gets injured I'd much rather have dermott step in in a pinch than those guys.

We can trade dermott in the summer.
 
What if Chicago likes Dermott tho and he's the main dude in a package for bagel. Bagel is likely worth more to this playoffs than a 7/8d.

Sure, but if the idea is Dermott + stuff/picks/prospects for a legit forward upgrade I think you have to consider it. I'd much rather add a Pavelski/Giroux etc up front than having Dermott sitting in the press box.

I guess the phrasing is weird.

"Dubas wants to move Holl or Dermott" vs "Holl or Dermott are available for an upgrade elsewhere"
 
And if Muzzin or Rielly gets hurt, it won't be Dermott moving up there, it will be whichever of Sandin or Lilly makes sense.

If Rielly gets hurt (assuming Dermott traded):

Brodie-Lilly
Muzzin-Holl
Sandin-New Ozzy

If Muzz gets hurt

Rielly-Lilly
Brodie-Holl
Sandin-New Ozzy

Dermott is a nice luxury to have, but yeah if he's a valued piece in getting us a forward, I think we've gotta do it.
 
Everyone thought LW was gonna be a big problem this year.

Kerfoot 15:38, 12gl/58pt pace, 53.5xgf%
Bunting 15:21, 27gl/56pt pace, 59.8xgf%
Milheyev 15:19, 30gl/43pt pace, 59.2xgf%
Engvall 12:43, 13gl/31pt pace, 54.9xgf%

None of them getting top PP unit time to boost those numbers, 3 of them key PK guys, 2 of them able to fill in at C.

And that's even with their primary FA LW signing busting completely and their top LW prospect injured all year.

Not bad.
