Tarasenko ------------- has been traded

[Shep]

I'd want more than Tarasenko and Rattie for Lupul.

[CAM]

This year is skewing player values. A proven top line guy should always pay more than an unproven high draft pick, imo. Its a buyers market and shits going crazy...lol

[Robin Hood]

BBKL shocks me sometimes. The fact that there is a bidding war for Tarasenko isn't what surprises me.

But when names like Moulson and Lupul are being thrown around, how are people going higher than that? Just insanity.

[The BBKL Insider]

wanna cut cap, that's the price you pay

we've all been there.

i can tell you now, i wouldn't trade a guy like Gallagher or Etem for a 5 or 6mil guy.

heck, i've even rejected good offers from our boston buddy cam there, because of cap.

I would hardly call Lupul or Moulson cap liabilities. Just like ROR. They're all proven h2h studs. It's shocking to me that a Tarasenko thread gets more action than my ROR thread/Anton's Lupul thread. Not to mention, it almost seems like BBKL considers Tarasenko to be worth more than the two based on the offers. So ridiculous.

Shiv you mad? Lol




I know the deal I'm likely going to take. Received the offer about a week ago. Just wanted to see what people would throw out there since there has always been interest in him.

Can't say I've been dissapointed with any of the offers.

[The BBKL Insider]

i woudln't pay anything for Taraensko, but that's simply because he's russian and i avoid all russians.

that said, i understand the stance kyle has taken, i've taken it with my ELC guys as well.

and it's not that moulson or Lupul are cap "liabilities", it's just taking on a 4-6mil player can be hard for any team this summer, esp if you're trading a guy making 1.5ish on an ELC.

Steve knows what's up

[Lee]

Considering you wanted a player who is better, younger and cheaper than RoR, you may be asking for too much, Shiv.

[Robin Hood]

Shiv you mad? Lol

Definitely lol. BBKL has improved drastically but some still haven't caught on it seems. Tarasenko should not see better offers than ROR or Lupul. Ridiculous.

Steve knows what's up

Steve is doing his best not to say what I've said in this thread lol. He's being diplomatic as usual. An ELC contract is only valuable if performance goes along with it. Tarasenko has not proven anything yet.

As a Leaf fan, my only response is shock. Lupul is going to dominate for us for years to come. And ROR is 22.

[KapG]

He breaks out this year.


Pre headshot last year he was the leading candidate for roy imo.

Lupul is awesome but I'm not adding my only good forward prospect to go with tarasenko. Especially after the year rattie had.

[The BBKL Insider]

i haven't been diplomatic?

i've said i hated Tarensenko, but understood kyle's stance.

i've also said i've rejected offers on Etem/Gallagher that are very similar to this...one from boston cam being Wheeler.

[Robin Hood]

Does someone want to explain wtf just happened?

Enzzie made the post below and before I could quote it and ask him how he had Gardiner, it was deleted. Is Nick using Enzzie's account?

[Nick]

Hahha, nope. I hit edit not quote. Just deleted my edit and PMed Ennzie the sorry.

[kimmer]

he said you ARE being diplomatic you goomba

[KapG]

and steve is saying he hasn't been. Just posed in a question cause Steve is all like "huhh????"

The question mark is likely throwing you off Paul.
