    Default Brent Burns offer on the table ** Urgent

    Hey Guys
    Been talking back & Forth on Burns with another owner that’s fallen out of playoff picture.
    Im sitting 2nd , but floating in the top 4 for playoff standings.

    I feel my need for playoffs is to strengthen D men .

    The “ ask “ for Burns is a 1st this year and a 2nd next year , most likely a 5th and 6th going back ( or lower ) .

    is It too much overpayment ?

    Trying tie in Barzal to the deal , but it gets upped to a 1st , 2nd and my Nylander ?

    any thoughts on the straight up 1st, 2nd for Burns ??


    Any alternate Ideas to Entice both those players away ?

    Cheers

    With Jones being out I'd say you're kind of up against the wall and NEED a D. Even so, thats a reasonable offer and with Karlsson being out as well Burns will likely improve his production so you should probably go for it.

    When it comes to the Barzal vs Nylander portion its a toss up. I like Barzal a bit more long term but Nylander has looked really good this year also so if you need every point possible this year I'd stand pat there but if you think theres some wiggle room then make the move for Barzal.

    I'd to the Burns for 1st and 2nd, if you've got a real chance this year.

    If it's based on NHL playoffs it's not great as Burns won't be there. If it's the latter part of the year it's a good deal. I really don't think that's an unreasonable ask at all.

    McDavid/Necas/ Kucherov/Bjorkstrand/Rust/Nugent Hopkins/Cirelli/Zegras/- Letang/Morrissey/Dahlin - Swayman/Saros/Skinner

    Prospects include:
    McTavish/Clarke/Bordeleau
    Dumais/Korchinski/Hutson

    Don't worry I'm not going to say anything more than I have to. If that.

    Yeah , not based on the playoffs , ours start in just 3 weeks.
    I do feel this could give that extra push over the next few months , or at least be a solid addition.

    Feeling pretty good , as I sit 2nd , been on a run with 6 straight weekly wins , and sit first in overall points production.

    I know the Picks might be a bit of a reach, but we also pay out for 2nd and 3rd place finishes ..... so it might just put me into the Money �� place finish.

    I plan to just hopefully trade him in off season and get back a higher pick again to off set the “ going for it “ over pay ??

    Thats not an overpay- thats way cheaper than Id do it for. Burns is going to be a beast with EK out. Still a 55+ point dman for 2 years at least and a sog pig :P

    Brent Burns for nothing off of your roster sounds like a winning move for this season. I can get behind that!

    Another "do it" vote. Don't complicate it, Burns for a 5th and a 6th overall is a steal, and you need that help on D. Did I say do it (:

    AND THAT ^

    One minor bonus with Burns & SJ - with no playoffs in store - Burns won't get rested during your playoffs over the final two weeks ala - Bergeron.. etc.

    Another vote for that's a low price to pay for Brent Burns. Get in the money and worry about next year at a later time.

    I also agree to do this. Picks can't help you now, players do, and Burns just had his situation vastly improve with Karlsson out.
