Cuz now I'll be pretty pissed if we didn't move him for a "very good" return. I know that there was talk in the Boston forum about them, can't remember if they ever got specific with the players. I don't know if the guy was even legit, but the boston fans treated him as though he had real sources and had been reliable in the past. He said that there were two deals being talked about. Not sure if I can find the posts from that long ago. . Someone in the Devils board I think said it was basically the Kase deal, which I find hard to believe, but if it's accurate, I understand why we passed.

Yeah, if it was the Kase deal, I get passing on it. Axel Andersson isn't really that great of a prospect. Well, not enough to give up Palmieri AND take on 75% of Backes.

I mean, Vaak had been hyped forever and he never got off the ground. He's kind of just a guy. Zboril has been a bust....so they have plenty of depth defensive pieces they could move, but they don't have a whole lot that I'm interested in moving Palms for. Maybe Debrusk? Though talk is he hasn't been the same since his concussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the biggest problem was, if I remember correctly, was that nobody would offer a first for him. According to the Boston guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 I would assume that was a first in addition to a good prospect...I have to imagine that we were looking for the Coleman deal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted September 14, 2020 Author Share Posted September 14, 2020 Tho, I would re-visit it and see if I can pull Studnicka and their 2020 2nd depending on how the board falls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say...I think Studnicka is projected in their lineup. Their fans are hard to deal with and he is a 100% non starter to them. At this point, with him being a rental, I do think that is the type of deal we are looking at. Taffoli type deal. If the prospect is legit, I'm good with that. Tyler Madden was not a light prospect to give up. I've offered him to Carolina fans for Bean lol. I'd do the same for Suzuki and probably even Fleury...though I'll be honestly, I have no idea what the deal is on Fleury. I don't get why they are only playing him like 13 minutes a night? Just because the D is stacked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how he fits with the Canes up and down game but if Justin Williams can do it, there's no reason Palms couldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel, for the style of the team, that makes more sense. Though, Palms likely wears the C so that may **** with that idea a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
