That Vancouver offer is pretty laughable. Vegas is way out there too.

That's Frolik OR Bennett, not and. I thought that was cleared up yesterday.

When was that cleared up? Also that makes no sense from a value perspective when compared to the other offers, those two guys alone have nowhere near the same value as guys like Kessel or Marchessault

Well, assumptions aside, Zuckers been spun around the league with no takers. Thusly, value drops if Minny is as motivated as it seems to move him. Froliks expiring g deal frees them up after this season. Dont think the Flames are all that keen on moving Bennett.

Of course they're not keen on moving Bennett. I don't think anybody thinks they are. I think they'd move him in the right deal, but I don't think a Zucker deal would count as such.

Looks bad for Zucker, if true. What's wrong with the guy? His agent really needs to start earning his fees and mitigate the PR damage.

Fenton seems rather intent on blowing everything up in Minnesota. Going the scorched earth route.

Problem is, they're trading the wrong guys. Suter, Parise, and Staal should be the ones on the chopping block, not Zucker, Niederreiter, Coyle, and Spurgeon.

No, but they're certainly setting their sites high. They really have to add to land Boeser though.

These valuations are just stupid now. If Boeser is on the market, though, I hope Treliving is in on that. Especially if the price is supposedly Frolik and/or Bennett.

Why would Vancouver be shopping Boeser? Makes no sense for a rebuilding team to unload their top young players.
