I understand the sustainability question, but I figure given that he has paced 4 37 point seasons already by 24 yrs old, he will at least put up a few more, and could even improve, given most Dmen dont even enter the league until 23-24 yrs old. He is young enough that I could wait until he slaughters a season and then move him, even if he has a couple down seasons here and there. To me, his possible upside is just as great as his possible downside. And for the price of a player that wont make any impact in the league for 2 or 3 years, that works for me. I also think I could move him for more than i paid before next season begins.

I'm assuming you are projecting out for 82 games because he has only paced 37+ twice.

[Matthew]

a pace is a projection, yes. His pace over 82 games.

[Fraser]

What it comes down too for me is Del Zotto has a higher potential to be an elite BBKL producer than the main piece going the other way, combined with him already being proven that he can play in this league.

So which is it? Do you like Del Zotto or not? lol!

Well certainly not for the price that Matthew proposed flipping him to me at one point, but theres no doubting he produced big time this year, so the potential is there for him to do it again. I don't like him long term in Philly, but it wouldn't surprise me if he's a top 40 defenseman in BBKL next year.

[CasperX22]

a pace is a projection, yes. His pace over 82 games.

Problem with that is that he has only gotten 70+ games twice minus the lockout season. He's a solid piece though provided he stays in Philly. If Streit gets moved and they keep Del Zotto he will get a nice boost to his value.

Well, that mcdavid trade is looking even worse now. Damn...

Because prospects and picks are worthless when McDavid in fact is a prospect?

If you think this cycles been any good, you're completely out to lunch.

^ LOLLLL

[Matthew]

It isn't terrible. At the moment, Nieto and Yakupov are comparable. Yakupov will likely be better in the future, but so will the 1st he got and Schmaltz. If Schmaltz becomes a 60 point center for Patrick Kane, then Darkness probably wins the cycle.

Nobody knows what this cycle is going to look like yet because he has turned it into Krug and like 20 prospects and incomplete. McDavid alone gets him to what the 2nd worst roster in the league? What would you have done if what he has done is so awful?

[kimmer]

Matthew lol

Like what are your reasoning for saying random unsupported complete bullshit assessment like that? U really don't have to defend urself for clear cut winning the trade. Why are you putting in all this extra work for nothing? He doesnt need your comfort or sympathy bro. Just stick ur tongue out and bounce lol. U won. Take it and don't look back lol

It's like i can 100 percent tell what u posted above u urself know is complete bullshit, lol. And that u truly know what u really think HAHA

[The BBKL Insider]

you boys need a life.

[KapG]

you boys need a life.

And someone needs a full time trade advisor


Obviously not u btw.

What it comes down to is the timing of the deals and the potential loss in value that time alone could have brought him. Off the top of my head the core that Peter was building was shaping up to be something like.

McDavid
Reinhart
Barkov
Lazar

MDC
Teravainen
Bennett
Baertschi

Hamilton
Lindholm
Pouliot
Murphy

Schneider


That core should have gotten better over time, and I think people are questioning the timing of sending a lot of these guys packing more than anything.

That's fair, but that still equates to likely being a bottom 3rd team even assuming growth over time. Honestly, he can't really make this team any worse than what he inherited lol!

[KapG]

No, but you can waste asset value, which has been happening IMO.

Yeah too bad theres a GP limit I have to hit as well huh Thanks Pete. Still baffled how taking a single pick in turning it into multiple NHL players and picks and prospects is bad much less some guys changing their minds depending what hour of the day is. I got this thanks

[kimmer]

Lol bro it just means I'm right and experienced guys know exactly what I'm saying including shiv/Fraser. Sorry for loving you too much if there was one sin I've committed in bbkl this wud be it. I will fly in the wind

If you have to actually say you are right then you are wrong and Shiv who sells off his whole team then quits and Fraser who say Deangelo was equal to FF......oh boy what role models there. For someone who knows so much how da fuck do you manage to fuck your teams up all da time sir?
