Back when we used to make it out of the first round.

Just throwing out a random discussion topic because we have a long offseason because Louis Domigue is a klutz...

Would you do: The rights to Kasperi Kapanen, Drew O'Connor, Samuel Poulin and 21st overall for the rights to Kevin Fiala?

I think that's a load of crap for Fiala, but maybe there's a cap crunch deal there and it lowers his value league wide a little bit and maybe we can leverage our relationship with Billy G a little there...I don't know...

Why are we throwing in a draft pick in this scenario? Seems unnecessary

Well, you have no contract, fairly limited value KK, you have a relative nobody in DOC, you have a prospect whose value has not improved in Poulin...and we're getting a better than PPG player in his prime. I think we're not that close to what his value is. If you have to move Fiala, you're probably trying to get one big piece back, not a bucket of nickels...

Aside from what little cap savings you get for trading Kapanen's rights, is Fiala much of a step up on Rakell? I feel like Rakell fits well here, and would likely cost the same, maybe less than Fiala, and could still put up similar numbers playing with Sid.



Edit: Fiala has been in the league so long, that I thought he was way older than 25.

I like Kevin Fiala. I saw he mentioned somewhere as a possible target since Minnesota is gonna be in cap hell

But that is a bucket of nickels. 21st overall isn’t that valuable to me.

I would not. I don’t know that I’m desperate enough to trade for rights at this time.

I would do that provided they retain 71. If not they gotta use whatever trade capital they have to try and uncover a center unless they can sign Vinny and think he's good enough as a 2C

I know that number 21 does not play until Crosby retires, but I would like to keep it if possible. We lose a lot of borderline useful stuff for a Fiala that probably wants to get paid.

Fialas numbers look great, but his cap hit would mean that we say goodbye to either Letang or Malkin? Even if we can get rid of Petterssons contract...

That said, I would probably do it if I believe I can sign Fiala for five years to a reasonable cap hit

I have a buddy that hates the fact that #21 is retired in Pittsburgh. :lol: He thinks Briere hadn't played enough regardless of his potential.

Crazy to think that we could go from 2 retired numbers to maybe 7 in like ten years. I'm including Jagr in that, because his should be up there imo
