I know, asset management and all. But still, I wonder if he's not worth more than the low pick he'd fetch in return as an example of hard work to the young guys on our roster. Lord knows I don't want them only seeing guys going through the motions like our supposed leader and emulating that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is turning into a magnified version of Koivu. Saks was a very good player surrounded by human garbage for most of his Habs career. Price is an elite all-star, but same situation.

Trizzak Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 5 minutes ago, Commandant said: Not caring is not the explanation for everything. Its the laziest analysis. But its one you do every time. It has nothing to do with caring. He's 35 now, he's lost a step, he's just not as good as he used to be, and he doesn't create time and space to get his shot off that he used to. An example of Bergevin not replacing this team's centre depth when he needed to. But it has nothing to do with the player not caring. There are very few players in the NHL who don't care. You don't make it to that level of hockey without being an ultra competitive person. This is the weakest I've ever seen him compete in board battles, and he doesn't look like he's exerting any effort on second chances. But I suppose we can argue til the trade deadline on if it's if he "won't" or that he "can't"... gonna need something to post about for 2 months.

Habber Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Buffalo would be crazy to trade o'reilly for pacioretty. Right now if Pittsburgh is interested all they'd get is Connor Sheary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see why Buffalo would want a soon to be UFA Patches. They are rebuilding. The team mentionned by Freidmann was St. Louis. I'd want something like their 1 of Jake Walman or Vince Dunn, 1 of Robby Fabbri, Robert Thomas or Jordan Kyrou plus 2nd round pick. if Duchene got what he got... thats the kind of deal i want for Patch.

Lord knows I don't want them only seeing guys going through the motions like our supposed leader and emulating that. Who says its a low pick. Teams overpay for these gritty guys who can play a little bit. If you really want him you can always try to re-sign him in the summer. I'm also not letting myself get enamoured with 15-20 good games from a player who has never been this good. Cash in. Take a 2nd rounder or a 3rd rounder or whatever.

As always, I appreciate the insight. Yeah I guess ROR is a pipe-dream. Let's not forget the ol' flip him in a package for Tavares scenario, assuming you can sign Tavares. Speaking of pipe dreams...

You think every GM in this league doesn't think Pacioretty isn't a change of scenery away from being his 35 goal scoring self? Just because a guy who has scored 30 goals 4 years in a row has a rough couple months doesn't mean he is suddenly worth a Connor Sheary.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They know what they are getting. Just like Duchene wasn't the 40 point player he scored like last year. Again... stop the madness... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course our GM will probably turn him into some plug like Milan Lucic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbhatt Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 I think you have to send a highlight package of Max's goals the past 4 seasons to GMs to remind them at this point....just to make sure they remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Coming from the guy who has taken a shit on Pacioretty's game, every game for not just this season, but each of the past four years too... that analysis means little.
