Rank the Trade Candidates

Post by a smell of green grass »

I still doubt that Armstrong is in true sell-off mode. That would be what most GMs would do. I think that it would be much more accurate to say that he is is sell-off-the-stink mode, trying to acqure a guy to gets us to .500 hockey and keep the ticket sales going.

Nevertheless, if Armstrong is in true sell-off mode, here is how I would rank the candidates...

1. Thomas
2. Broberg
3. Parayko
4. Kyrou
5. Schenn
6. Holloway
7. Binnington
8. Fowler
9. Faulk
10. Sundqvist
....
9,9999.5 Buchnevich

I left Snuggerud and Dvorsky off list because they are not realistic trade targets. They are worth more to us than any team would risk to obtain.

Sure would be nice to have Bolduc back to trade again.

Why trade Bolduc if he were here? I thought if he were here we’d be 20-0-0???

This list does not indicate who I want to trade. I'm listing the attractiveness of the candidate. If Bolduc were still here, I would place him in the middle somewhere.

I bet Army wishes that he had Bolduc back for trade bait.

I'm not ready for a full dismantle.

That hand might be played next year if Holloway and/or Broberg doesn't want to resign.

I don't think we get many high picks. But This year's list would be anyone over 27.
I could see teams over paying for what Binny, Buch, Schenn, Faulk, or Other can bring.
