Millerdraft Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Honestly, I don't know much about him... never really noticed him much when we played against them. Seems like another "almost 2nd line" player like Raymond/Higgins/Hansen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Dustin Brown 3g 1a tonight vs the Blackhawks. I don't think he's gonna get traded in conference... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millerdraft Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 It was always a very remote possibility... the rumblings being that MANY GMs got on the phone asking about Brown when word got out he was available. We would have had to overpay to get him if indeed he was available... Now the optics would be really bad in LA if they moved him, imagine if Carter didn't perform right away and you just ditched your captain who scored 4 points in the last game he played?

canuckbeliever Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Xm Home Ice is reporting the Predators have a deal on the table of Ellis,Wilson, Laakso, and a #1 for Nash. Nash's agent meanwhile has said he wouldn't expand the list of teams...however, ARE we sure Nashville isn't on his list. This reminds me so much of the Forsberg trade. No one thought Nashville was on his list either (well except me...) This per Eklund. If I am Columbus, I STRONGLY CONSIDER this offer (assuming Nashville is on his trade list). I love Colin Wilson, kid is going to be a stud and Ellis seems destined that way as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millerdraft Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Laakso is a not a very promising prospect. Equivelant to a Sweatt level prospect. Wilson would be the centerpiece to that trade. Equivelant to us giving up Hodgson. And Ellis is still a question mark as to whether or not he can adapt to the NHL. IMO he overachieved in the OHL by being on a stacked Spitfires team. Shouldn't have gone as high as he did IMO. I still think we could offer more if we wanted to, if you assume that they want a goaltender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 3g 6a 9pts +8 in his 22 game stint all at the tender age of 21. This kid is about as explosive of a powerplay quarterback that one could get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millerdraft Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Oh, I didn't know that 22 games defined a career. Sorry. Erik Karlsson is 21 years old and he is a point a game player. That's about as explosive of a powerplay quarterback that you can get. There's still question marks whether you think so or not. Lets see what he can do against a hulking St.Louis or San Jose team in a 7 game series. Lots of players have been good powerplay quarterbacks in their careers. And it doesn't hurt that Nashville has the best PP in the league. Sorry just not sold on him yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilbmac Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Poeple need to stop speculating nash being traded to the canucks will not happen and dont want it to happen, now im not saying hes not talented and wouldnt make the canucks better but canucks dont have the cap and now obviously they can make room magically but why give up our future by winning the cup for one year when with the team we have and the future in the young players we have could get us more then just one cup, I dont really understand why we would want to trade schnieder anyways he will be a top goalie in another couple seasons, making this trade just does not make sence to me anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millerdraft Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Well then it's no deal. New York has already said they won't give up either Del Zotto or McDunaugh so I guess he's not going to New York either. My guess is he stays in Columbus until their GM comes up with a serious asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john bell Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 ^^^^^ I would consider it. Its a "roll the dice" move. I would think that the chances of the Canucks winning the Cup would be skyhigh, and Vancouver hasn't won a Cup in forty plus Years. The only issue is this will hamper Our ability to resign Players like Alex Edler, Alex Burrows, and even the Sedins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winthecup Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 hearing on twitter that Nash has been traded to Leafs and goalie Mason is part of the deal too. pretty sure its a fake account and not true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Situation69 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Rick Nash The Columbus Blue Jackets may have finally been wowed by an offer for their soon-to-leave Rick Nash by the Nashville Predators, as they try to swoop in and nab one of the league's most prolific scorers. "Source believes the Nashville Predators have made the greatest offer for Rick Nash. Ultimately, it is up to Nash if he will waive his NMC." via (@HockeyBreak) The Preds have reportedly offered the likes of Colin Wilson, Ryan Ellis, Teemu Laakso and a first-round pick for Nash. While Nashville has rarely been publicly in the sweepstakes for the Blue Jackets captain, it may be the best offer they receive before the trade deadline. Wilson is a budding offensive weapon and would help replace Nash, while Ellis is one of the league's premier young defenders. The Predators are unlikely on Nash's wishlist, but he has to consider them given the playoff atmosphere and direction the program is heading. Plus, such a move could nearly seal star blue-liners Shea Weber and Ryan Suter's future with the team as they look for goal scoring to help them get a Stanley Cup. The Predators would give Nash the ability to be the option on a balanced offensive attack that doesn't feature any stars. He could go out and get his 65 to 70 points per season while making Nashville a four-headed monster with himself, Suter, Weber, and Vezina trophy finalist Pekka Rinne. This deal would be big for both Nash and the Predators while setting up a perennial Cup contender in Music City for years to come. Now it's time for the Blue Jackets to decide if it's big enough for them. Go Canucks Go Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millerdraft Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Lethal. Nashville is alredy a nasty piece of business but if they added Rick Nash? Yikes. It would be a marketing dream for the Preds as well, Nash-ville! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunner Garrison Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 What if the deal was: 2012 1st round pick 2012 2nd round pick Cody Hodgson Cory Schneider Mason Raymond for 2012 2nd round pick Rick Nash Boone Jenner Grant Clitsome (provided he clears waivers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2011 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 If Van was in on Nash (Big if) expect Booth to be a part of the package. Booth has his ice time cut by 3.5 mins per game in the days leading up to the deadline, and his cap hit would give Van some space to fit Nash's 7.8 M. Again big if, but if it did happen I believe Booth would a part of the package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
