We will see, you seem to think teams will trade a scorer for scaps.

 

I like all 3 but I'm betting they are all on the table.

No, I don't think teams will trade a scorer for (I think you meant) scraps, but unlike you and some others I look a few years down the road where we will have to replace some of our core guys and I'd like to actually have good players we developed.

I have named plenty of players that aren't "scraps" in our system and picks are in play too.  Those assets can get it done.  If the Rangers or Vegas want to overpay then let them.

They are bottom 6 potential players.... 

The Canes have a ridiculously full pipeline due to the fact that they have KEPT their guys, this team has been a cup contender for 2-4? Years and have faltered at not having enough scoring sometimes you have to pay the piper that time is now.

and those bottom 6 prospects plus 1st round draft picks, plus other picks can get players we would want. 

I don't want to give up players like Pono, FUS, Nikishin, Morrow who will probably be on our NHL roster starting as early as next year.

It's all in the ask of the other team and what we kind of offers we are competing with.

    • I see both sides of the arguments, but compared to last year we're somehow at an upgrade over completely fried Dalton and wasn't even good in college Plummer. At least Pickett and Grier probably have some desire to make more money when Dalton was happy to just go through the motions and I will never understand why they even bothered with Plummer. 
    • After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem 
    • You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….
