That's insane.



Yup. Still insane. The Hawks gave up way too much considering Ladd's play so far this year.

I doubt anyone gives up a 1st for PAP. Rightly or not, Ladd is big and considered a playoff-type player and Parenteau is kind of perceived as only a scorer. Probably bullshit but GMs seem to follow this mindset still.

That being said, the madnessof NHL GMs never ceases to amaze at this time of year so we'll probably see a PAP for a 1st and a B prospect deal. Both will bomb with the Leafs but it will still be an over-payment. :dhd:
Insane, but Ladd being a "big, playoff-type guy" is kinda unfounded. First off, what are we basing that on, a 4-game sweep last year? Or ancient history? Secondly, his playoff scoring record is awful. While Parenteau's is similarly bad (and very brief), it's still better per-game than Ladd's.

It's insane, but it's market price.

Apparently Scuderi going the other way. HAHAHA

I think maybe the Kings have confused themselves.

*movie announcer voice* "From the team who traded for Luke Schenn...we bring you (an intentional and not for cap relief) trade for ROBERT SCUDERI."

I'd be willing to wager that any return for PAP is not in the ballpark as the one that Ladd got. As I said, right or wrong, players like Ladd always get more than players like Parenteau at the deadline, stats be damned.

Ladd's grit and size > PAP. FWIW.

I'd be shocked if PAP got a 1st rounder though. That being said, team's are effen crazy this time of year.

If Rinne can consistently play like he did last night, that's one.

I think if Minny makes it in (and I think they will) they have a lot of nice pieces.

There is a pretty solid chance that they'll end playing San Jose too, that could be a tough matchup.

"oh hey ... weve come to find out Scuderi has a drug problem ... uh ... we're gonna just have to go and void that contract ... M'kay?"
