Lol, SKYO is damaged goods from hanging out in the trade forum at Hockey'sFuture for years. He's out to lunch with his trades but yeah GM'ing is a good way to put it.
Most sane people know that it would be the Sabres having to add another asset with Myers to get just Tanev alone

Yeah no the way you want to piss assets away for scrubs you would be looking up at the Oilers .SKYO wrote:STOP trying to act like you a GM LOLBlob Mckenzie wrote:No we don't . Stop GM ing this thread .

Should I have said Kapil or Farhan instead of GM ? Betamax work for you ?

Myers is seriously overrated like Diana.
I can't figure out why Skyo is in such a huge hurry to overpay big time to break up Edler-Tanev..

If we wanted to make a play for a defenseman...
Oliver Ekman-Larsson is possibly available.
He IS a young, franchise type d-man who would be worth moving a package that included Tanev.

I'm a huge OEL fan. The Yotes would be morons for trading him. He's the kind of young asset you build around. You'd have to give an arm and a leg to get him.

Definitely would take an enormous offer. I'd give anything except Edler, Horvat and Virtanen...RoyalDude wrote:I'm a huge OEL fan. The Yotes would be morons for trading him. He's the kind of young asset you build around. You'd have to give an arm and a leg to get him.
Mike Smith has really sucked bad this year and they are openly talking about blowing it all up and starting over.
Our 1st, Tanev, Kassian and Lack? That's a huge price tag but he really is that good. This is what it would take I suspect

Re: Trades and rumours (& fantasies) 2014-15
If OEL was in a better market the hockey world would pay more attention to him
I'd do Kassian, Lack and a 2015 1st for him if our 2015 1st isn't a top 12 pick. The drop off at 2015 draft is after the 12th pick.

Re: Trades and rumours (& fantasies) 2014-15
Yeah, no chance am I giving up all of that for OEL. I think there are a lot of delusional people on this forum. This is probably the best draft in over a decade and it'd be foolish to dump our 1st. OEL is good with upside but who knows. I can't see a hockey trade being made here by the Canucks.RoyalDude wrote:If OEL was in a better market the hockey world would pay more attention to him

Tyler Myers would be a nice add but the price is too high. He's too big of a risk. I'm not sure how people this he's the kind of guy we've been looking for 40 years when his numbers have been so weak for the last while. Give it a rest.
The trade deadline can be tough for buyers and sellers can move assets for above the regular asking price. I'd like to see Benning deal a few vets and, if possible, make a hockey trade. If the market is so low on Kassian then hang on to him. No rush. The Canucks are not competing for the Cup anytime soon.

Dude ..OEL is very much like Nik Lindstrom.
He's already well beyond potential

But I just can't see the Yotes trading him. They'd be dumb as hell if they did
Myers is a joke and the sabres are asking too much for him. He hasn't had a good year since his rookie year. Too much of a gamble for what they are asking in return. I could see a cup contender like the Ducks taking the gamble but the Sabres are going to have to lower their price if they want to trade the flash in pan. He's a tall string bean, and is extremely whimpy

Re: Trades and rumours (& fantasies) 2014-15
Heard from someone reliable(not on the internet)
- Lack is good as gone, to be packaged with a dman. Probably to MIN, ARZ, PHI, BUF, DAL
- Kassian isn't going anywhere. However we are showcasing a forward, but didn't say who.
- A ROR trade isn't completely off the table, we're just not trading Edler.
- Any top 6 player we acquire will likely be a winger.
- Redundant NTC players to be traded in the off-season.
- Jensen would be with the Big Club, there just isn't any room.
- As for the trade deadline day, Benning won't do a whole lot unless another team gets desperate. Although he would like to acquire a few more late picks for the upcoming draft.
Yes I know a lot of it isn't new, but just thought I share and add to the conversation.
