Article: The Pressure Is On For Danila Yurov To Develop Quickly

We just traded away a future star(Buium) for a current star(Hughes).  Any future trades won't be of the Hughes magnitude.  But I would think Yurov would be the outgoing player to make it happen... and would return a solid player in his prime to go along with Hughes and Kirill's prime.

Not that I'm advocating for that.... uffda.

Yurov isn't going anywhere.

I hope not...  but never thought we would trade Buium either

But he was replaced by Buium ‘2029 and Hughes ‘25 has elevated an already strong team to something no one will want to play. 
2 games, total domination. Now out scoring good teams 11-2 when 2 weeks ago, we lost to 2 of the worst teams.

Idk, I think it would make a lot of sense to cash in on Yurov the same way they did with Hughes. Especially if they can get a top-6 C with term. 

Thompson or Jack Hughes have good-value contracts with 4 years left. I'd absolutely be fine trading off Yurov, and even including Wallstedt, if that's what it took to land a player like that. 

Honestly, since Jack has no trade protection on his contract this year, maybe see what it would take to pry him from NJD... if they want to convince Quinn to stay, adding his brother at a position of need on the team would probably go a long way toward that while finally getting us that 1C we've been longing for. 

Yurov + Wallstedt + Hartman and our 1st rounders for Jack ought to be appealing to NJ, right? I mean we're only gonna start 1 goalie in the playoffs anyway...

Why? Because that has been the status quo? What if we just keep rolling the way we have been since it's worked so well? 

In my opinion, the only reason the Hughes trade worked is because our goaltending kept our record enticing. I don't think I'd want to break the culture there.

What team rotates goalies in the playoffs? That's just not how its done. 

Besides, I feel like if we could get him Tage Thompson + Gus > Gus + Wallstedt for the team's overall chances of advancing through the playoffs.

None that I know of, unless one has struggled and they need a Hail Mary. However, just because teams don't do that doesn't mean we cannot be successful breaking the tradition.
