Habby1197 Posted August 9, 2003 Author Share Posted August 9, 2003 I'm looking for Perezhogin, Higgins and the big second line centre to replace Perreault, Ribs, and Juneau. Dackell and some other junk, well.... who cares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ch_nl Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 would anybody wish to see our most reliable scorer (Perreault) be traded? I think Perreault would be the perfect match with Niklas Sundström... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zowpeb Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 The reason people want to see Perreault gone is because he carries some decent trade value, is easily replaced by Ribeiro or some other young guy, is soft, a poor passer and plays poor defense. He can score some goals and is probably one of the top 3 face-off men in the league and that's where is trade value comes from. He'd be ideal on a lower tier team that doesn't have depth at center. They were interesting lines but I must say that I disagree completely with Markov being on the last defensive pairing. If this team is fighting for a playoff spot...and we should be...then I don't think we should see the rookies taking over like that. If Perreault, Brisebois, Dykhuis, Dackell and Ribeiro aren't on the team then they are likely traded and you need to account for that in your lines...obviously, they'd be traded for someone... I'd like to see us deal Perreault, Breezy, Audette, Dackell, Rivet and Dykhuis well before trade deadline. Basically, I'd like to see: Zednik- Koivu - Perezhogin Bulis - Ribeiro - Ward Higgins - Juneau - Sundstrom Dwyer - Kilger - FILLED BY TRADE Markov - FILLED BY TRADE Souray/FILLED BY TRADE - Komisarek Hainsey - Quintal Of course, all that is dependant on Zhog, Higgins and Hainsey having good camps. I don't know how strong Souray is going to be for us this year. I think our biggest need is on defense. By far... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habby1197 Posted August 10, 2003 Author Share Posted August 10, 2003 Those D Pairings weren't in order... they were just posted as they came into my head... you didn't really think I thought Markov was our 5th or 6th Dman did you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CerebusClones Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 Sundstrom is one of the best defensive players in the league, and can still put up decent offensive numbers. He is the perfect 3rd liner, and the kind of player that will help us being a contender. For those reasons, I think playing him ona forth line would be plain stupid. I would also hope that Audette is gone by the '04 trade deadline. If he could only have another season similar to his Atlanta days season, we could at least steal a mid-round pick, or a decent journeyman out of him.

ch_nl Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Hmmm... Trading value? This season? I think we should wait and see what happens. There's a lockout hanging over us and I really hope that Gainey keeps Perreault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
