Confirmed tough talks but I hope Franson signs cheap and doesn't miss any time

[Robin Hood]

You win, Enzzie. I was in a giving mood.

Also, I think Goli on PP1 with Benn and Seguin will be one of the best PPQBs to own in the league and I also think Grabo has a chance to see time with OV/will be sheltered by OV's line at the very least - 3M ain't bad for that.

seems like an okay deal to me. Ennzie lands more h2h #, shiv lands lots of scoring (most years both should ouscore) - RoR best BBKL value piece but none of the 3 are exactly slugs. I obviously think Franson is a risk, but... dolike RoR's potential as well.


Something like a million+ saved in cap too - I get why Ennzie said yes, but I 100% see why Shiv would do this deal too.

[kimmer]

even trade

[hong57]

likes it for shiv

[tyler]

Im a big fan of this trade for Shiv.

Wut? Lol

This is a homerun for ennzie

This is a homerun for ennzie

I'm as surprised as you are with the reaction lol. ROR must be hated. That being said, Goligoski is the real gem in the trade for me. Benn-Seguin-Goligoski PP1 unit is going to tear it up.

[The BBKL Insider]

Hopefully goli is good for u, but he sucked for me last year.

Ennzie landed the 2 better players imo.

[shooker]

Nice trade Ennzie! love it for him. ROR will not be had at this price after one of the C's are moved in COL and he is returned to C full time. This trade will pay off in the long run, especially if Franson stays in TOR.

[Nick]

Franson hold out, or RoR too long in Roy's dog-house could both hurt Ennzie early in the year, and as a bubble team the early weeks matter.

No offense to Ennzie but I don't think he is quite a playoff team yet. I would also rather buy two excellent building pieces at a low and risk missing the playoffs, in a year I wouldn't win anyway to better the future, than hold out for a better chance at being a first round exit.

I think this is a smart trade that helps him grow towards being a legit threat.

Wut? Lol

[The BBKL Insider]

Ennzie's team is not even close to being a playoff team. His team is a bottom 10 in the bbkl

and this isn't a shot at him, that team was much worse under the previous fella.

[shooker]

Ennzie has definitely improved that team and in another year I am betting he starts becoming a perennial playoff team but you are right, still a bit to go.

[shooker]

He will still smash cliffy though and I know that is what's important to him for this season

[The BBKL Insider]

oh ya, ennzie's done a bang-up job

i just wouldn't expect to "do big things this year"

[kimmer]

you nick

[Nick]

Compared to others in that 7-11 range in the West, I think this coyote team is right there with them - could definitely make the playoffs.
