HKSR Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 What if Hronek demands more than PA/JR are willing to spend? Who would you trade him for? Here's my proposal. To OTT: Filip Hronek To VAN: Jakob Chychrun Shane Pinto Would balance out our roster nicely. OTT would love this too as it balances out their D pairs really nicely (Chabot-Hronek, Sanderson-Zub) We can then go UFA dipping for a big ticket RHD (Pesce?) Wouldn't even need to trade Mikheyev or Garland yet. Mikheyev-Miller-Boeser Hoglander-Petey-Podkolzin Joshua-Pinto-Garland PDG-Suter-Lafferty Hughes-Pesce Chychrun-Soucy Zadorov-Juulsen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodbye Zadorov it was nice knowing ya why not keep big Z and dump the giraffe ( trade his rights or sign/trade at the draft) Hughes - Pesce Hronek - Soucy Cole - Zadorov Juulsen - Chychurn looks like a pretty fair 8 d-men. ( I know I've probably got the pairs messed up ) Edited March 18 by grumpyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Pinto penciled in at $3.75M and Pesce at $7.25M. Edited March 18 by HKSR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 6of1_halfdozenofother Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 If we trade for Pinto, expect the league to retroactively re-assess his punishment and decide they were too lenient, extending his suspension for as long as he is under contract with us, leaving us saddled with his cap hit for the duration. Plus Edler is given an additional 10-game suspension, just because. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Hmm, in essence (presuming you let Lindholm walk in your proposal since he's not listed there), that's Chychrun + Pinto + Pesce (UFA) for Hronek + Lindholm. 2nd/ 3rd C who's strong on draws and plays in all situations, who'll be cheaper than Lindholm but also suited for a depth role, plus Chychrun who can be an all-around guy carrying the 2nd pair, and Pesce for 1st pair RHD for an offensive D who might be overpriced and a solid if slightly underachieving 2nd C? I'd do that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I'm not sure Hronek really fills what Ottawa needs tbh, or that we'd get Pinto AND Chychrun for him Scoring isn't their issue, it's keeping the puck out of their net that does them in Ottawa was really high on Tanev leading up to the deadline, I wouldn't be surprised if they throw 5M at him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 Ottawa can be high on Tanev, but at his age, I'm gonna guess Ottawa isn't near the top of his list for places to play in. Maybe if Ottawa was a contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

occ78 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Hughes was able to play the way he did because of Hronek He is so patient with a puck and understands the game Hronek is one of the main reason why Vancouver played like this compare to last year Now trade him?

I’m sure the only reason this is debated is because he might be asking for 8 mill a season which could be out of Vancouver’s budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sativika Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I'm kinda' on the fence with Hronek. I get that he's looking' for the big payday. Can't fault him for that. On the other side of the coin, we have Huggy playing lights out this season 'cuz he's paired with a talented RH partner who helps him be that guy. It's tit for tat rally. If ya' look at Hronek's demand for 8mil per; yea. It's more than Huggy makes now, but when Huggy's contract is up, he'll get a double digit mil per year payday and Hronek's 8mil will seem not to bad after such. I don't know how RFA vs UFA works, but can we not get something in trade if we can't make it work for Hronek!?!?!?!???? Is it easy as that. Just trade him? What about qualifying offers an' all that jazz???!?!?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowman955 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 (edited) Would Hronek be where he is without Hughes? While l tend to understand, he was exactly what we need for the pairing. Can he remain elevated on another team? I don't think he can. He should no be paid more than Hughes. Edited March 30 by snowman955 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Hronek isn’t worth 7m or more, keep him if he signs in the 6-7m range. he has played with Hughes all year basically and might crack 50pts… if he wants to get paid then trade him and recoup a 1st or I like the Pinto idea, would’ve gone after him instead of overpaying for ufa Lindholm. my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoop Hogg Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 No to Pesce. Don’t like his contract. Yes to the Ottawa deal. Not sure if the Sens would do it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Hronek for Dobson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komodo0921 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 I don't really see Hronek going anywhere. I believe PA and co. will get a deal done. We have a lot of young defenders coming into their own and could be seeing the NHL in the, not too distant, future. Tom Willander, iril Kudreyavtsev, and D-Petey are looking really promising. I can see all three being solid NHL options in two to three years. I think whoever is lost this offseason can and will be replaced in free agency. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
