Kilza posted:You can throw Joe Sakic (even though he's not done anything recently, Avs are still bad), George McPhee (bad picks during the expansion draft, like Sbisa and Emelin) and Dale Tallon (gave away Marchessault and Reilly Smith for nothing) in there as well. The expansion draft seems to have broken a lot of GM's brains.

i think the hjalmarsson trade was bad for the hawks. top pairing guy for a middle pairing guy on a long and not cheap deal and a center that's more likely to just be ahl fodder than a nhl player.

For most of the Draft, the team went off the list, drafting players that were either forecasted in later rounds, or not ranked at all. wow that sounds promising

Levitate posted:Gorton for the Stepan trade? Might not have had the most amazing draft but ultimately seems OK I'm a big fan of Stepan, but it doesn't seem bad to sell high on a guy at age 27 when he has four years left on a big contract. The younger assets were definitely going to be necessary soon, so it's a good move in a rolling rebuild without blowing the team up. I'd much rather get a high pick this way, instead of trying to be bad. We'll have to see what they do with the cap space.

That return is not selling high.

It's crazy to me that next year kids will be being drafted that were born in 2000.

Just a fourth line swap. Usual business. Happens a hundred time a season. Just exchanging marginal players one for one. And a first round pick. NBD.

The difference is that this time the Penguins did it, and you're not allowed to criticize them.

What about dropping to #51 Then drafting someone scouted at #143 at the highest in that spot? Edit: Oh yeah, and trading a center for a right wing on a team that has 80000000000 RW and 2 centers signed.

It wasn't a good trade but if you think it's comparable to what Holland and Chiarelli are doing, you're nuts That said, it is extremely bizarre that JR thinks the Pens need more grit after going back to back with potentially the softest team in the league* *excluding Sidney Crosby's Good Hockey Plays of course
