What trades do you think will actually happen this season?

[5thhorseman]

Aquas will never sign off on a rebuild so I highly doubt the raisin will be allowed to trim the team down to the bone. I'm afraid it will be just those we are going to lose anyways, Kane and Sherwood. Boring, I know but at least it's something.

[Meds]

I just voted for Sherwood, as I see him as the top target for other teams.

If Kane walks - it's not great loss, FA in, FA out. Not sure he's proven himself to be an asset to a playoff team. (same goes for the other UFAs - we might trade 1, possibly 2 for a 4th or lower.

Kane didn’t come in as a free agent…..

I don’t see Boston being a hard charger in the mix for Sherwood. His play style fits their overall organization identity, but they are fighting for a wildcard spot, and it would not surprise me to see them fall short.

Sherwood is a 3rd line player who just happens to be scoring way above his career average in a contract year. Thats the type of player that a team with right now Cup aspirations wants. He’s not a player that puts a potential wildcard team over the top.

I predict we will be very underwhelmed with what we get for this player. Partly because as fans we overvalue what we have when that commodity is over-performing, and partly because because it is just the Canuck way to get screwed by the hockey gods or simply fuck this sort of situation up by virtue of ineptitude.

Ah - thanks for the correction, a 4th round pick - turned into David Lewandowski

When you boil it down we traded Podkolzin for Kane

[BoS]

I could see Detroit making some moves in the coming months. They have $20 mill in cap space, a full board of picks and some decent prospects to move. Perhaps JR can convince Stevie Y to take Febreeze for a prospect and a couple picks.

Detroit might be a good destination for Kane.
I heard they were looking for a LW.

[Carl Yagro]

I can smell what the BoS is spraying

Kane’s homecoming should be a short one. I’m good with whatever he can fetch.

[Tciso]

We need to keep lame-o’s DeBrusk and Boeser because their great contributions are playing a vital role in keeping us in the basement.

Give the C to Garland, the cat competes every shift.

So, trade one of them, after we blitzkrieg to the 1st OA?

Both DeBrusk and Boeser are streaky. Too bad they have matched cycles. But, i am ok with dumping 1 for a more consistent player.

[Ronning's Ghost]

I voted for every option that I thought was remotely realistic.

It's based far more on hope than analysis, but my hope is that the combination of the speed and success of the California re-builds, and the effectiveness of the returns from the Hughes trades, have the Little Eagles convinced that a 2-3 season (including this one) mini/lightning rebuild would be worth the long-term value & revenue increase.

But then, I believe in Santa, too.

[Blob Mckenzie]

Trade them all. Get younger and more picks. With all the cap we have start trading prospects and picks to get some good vets on the team and blow the rest in free agency.

Just burn it to the ground?

Makes no sense to me. Keep some solid veterans here while implenting younger players into the lineup the next two seasons.

Lots of chatter around EP40, Carolina & Dallas.

Smoke? Fire? Bag of Pucks? Or something legit?

A 1st RP for sure, just not sure what Van would have to take back to make the salary work for either team.

Thanks dad.


JPP is the one making the claims and should be Mickying this place with the appropriate links.
