MNCountryLife Verified Member Posted December 16, 2025 Share Posted December 16, 2025 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalptrash Verified Member Posted December 16, 2025 Share Posted December 16, 2025 He has 8 points in 26 games, -4. If they are truly going to make a run, they need a legitimate 1C, FFS. Looks like Foligno is back tonight, so is half of Iowa! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now out scoring good teams 11-2 when 2 weeks ago, we lost to 2 of the worst teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1GKappa97 Verified Member Posted December 17, 2025 Share Posted December 17, 2025 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...

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. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Pablo Verified Member Posted December 17, 2025 Share Posted December 17, 2025 Jack Hughes would be amazing but no way Wallstedt is in a trade package. Billy G is probably going to sit tight for a few weeks and watch this team boil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enforceror Verified Member Posted December 18, 2025 Share Posted December 18, 2025 "The Pressure Is On For Danila Yurov To Develop Quickly" Yurov won 10 out of 11 faceoffs against the Caps. I expect his 39% faceoff win will continue to climb. Really excited for this kid to reach his potential. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Verified Member Posted December 19, 2025 Share Posted December 19, 2025 This is where the Stramel reach pick is rearing it’s head. We should have Ritchie (referenced in the article) or Perreault (higher rated prospect than Ritchie) left as trade ammo right now if they had made the correct decision on draft day. We wouldn’t have to be talking about trading Wallstadt (which isn’t happening) in a Vezina caliber season to fill the void. This is why you draft the best player available and not for need. We’re seeing it right now, and this is why many of us were upset about the pick. Stramel could very well end up being the better of those 3 down the road. But he’s worth significantly less in the trade market right now. I sure hope he develops into a player that wins a Cup down the road, because the pick might cost us one this year.
