aliboy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Bob McKenzie Tweet 10:46am VAN freeing up cap space akin to OPEN FOR BIZ sign going up. Ott? Brown, if available? ;-) Even Nash if they so choose? Many possibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliboy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Not sure I like this, or if its legit. http://thehockeybeat...+Hockey+Beat%29 It does indeed sound like we have stirred the pot, and CBJ is kicking the tires back with NYR and TOR. Perhaps we are just stirring the pot and our real target lies elsewhere, perhaps just a strategic move. Guess we will find out eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoneypuckOverlord Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 What Columbus wants : Is what The Thrashers got in return for Hossa/ Kovlachuk. Which was like a 1st round pick, very high prospect, a well establashed roster player, and another younger player. What OTHER teams believe he is worth What ottawa got in return for Heatly. 2nd round pick and 2 roster players. Do to attitude situations, not much teams interested, but Nash needs to expand the teams he wants to play for. It's being stupid right now, he only has like 6 teams on the list probably? Maybe 3 is really interested in him probably, nothing is going to be done. They are screwed. Their demands are too high, and his contact is insane.

Millerdraft Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Well, Sportsnet said the asking price is a 1st rounder, a 2nd rounder, a top prospect (Niklas Jensen in our case) and a roster top-six forward. It is therefore hypothetically plausible that an offer of Schneider, Raymond, Jensen, 1st & 2nd round picks would land Rick Nash but I doubt Gillis would bite at that cost.

hockeyfan90 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Apparently canucks are on the list... "Nash has a no-movement clause in his contract, but he has given the Blue Jackets a list of teams that he would be willing to accept a trade to. Nash's list of teams reportedly includes the Rangers, Canucks, Bruins, Kings, Sharks and Maple Leafs" http://www.nhl.com/ice/blogpost.htm?id=6834 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliboy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I don't think Jensen is necessary considering we have Scneider in that deal. Schneider outweighs the value of a top prospect I would think. However if Raymond isn't the top 6 they're looking for, maybe a mid level propect like Sweatt would be needed to sweeten the deal.

Quint Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I don't get it. Don't we have an internal max salary? No one gets more than Sedins? How do we get all these hometown discounts and then bring in a guy who looks to be overpaid- seems like a gamble that you're not going to upset the room by bringing in a contract like that.

Millerdraft Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 If I had my druthers it would certainly be Brown to target, that is a Burrow's type steal of a contract he is on, and I think he complements our existing players pretty well. On top of that he wouldn't cost near as much as Nash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
