dlbalr Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 Reilly Smith and Jonathan Marchessault to Vegas. That's a couple of decent forward pickups even if Marchessault takes a step back next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted June 22, 2017 Author Share Posted June 22, 2017 The Islanders pay a high price to unload Grabovski (and not lose a notable forward) - Vegas gets a 2017 1st and a 2019 2nd. The Knights added a 2nd and a 4th to take Garrison off Tampa's hands as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 1 minute ago, Trizzak said: Losing Emelin for free > paying to lose Plekanec. Quite true. My only question is whether losing Pleks for free (as was rumoured) would have been a better outcome than losing Emelin. I think Pleks on the bottom-6 can help us, but fret that Barber Bill will keep reverting to him in the top 6 every time Galchenyuk's defensive lapses start to get to him. Our coach seems to be the kind of guy that would prefer to lose with 'safe' low-ceiling veterans than take a chance on winning with high-ceiling riskier youth. A guy like Pleks is a standing temptation to him. Used properly, though, he can be a ridiculously overpaid but useful C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commandant Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Trade Pleks to Arizona for a bag of pucks. Pretty sure they are under the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be that Hudon wasn't selected because he wasn't a proven NHLer, which he never got a fair shake at. This may have been a real strategy and it may have worked. And it might look damn good after Hudon becomes our next Pleks with consistent numbers and solid two-way play! (fingers crossed) It seems like a handful of teams got screwed, including Florida and Ottawa in our division. We lucked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona is looking for another "Datsyuk" contract that will count against their cap but costs them nothing. More likely to see Hossa traded to Arizona than Pleks.

habscout Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I think Gallant had some say with Vegas making this pick. He knows Emelin as a regular NHL defenceman first hand. I think they'll get some good use out of him and maybe give him the green night to hit a little more often, something I believe JJ tried to coach out of him.

Commandant Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 He wants young assets. A 21-year old defenceman who is already shown he can play in the NHL is a better young asset than any draft picks we can give up. Also Eakin's best ever season is basically what Philip Danault did this year. We don't need another 3rd line centre... even if last year was an anomaly, he's a 35 point guy.

Im sure he'd think hard about McCarron & 25th overall. Im not sold on Schmidt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commandant Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 TSN was talking about the D that Vegas is going to flip. Bob McKenzie just said that Theodore and Schmidt are likely to be fixtures on the Knights blue line for a long time, and won't be flips.
