Coconuts Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I'd definitely jump all over this if we could work a deal around Tanev+.. Kid's got talent and we're gonna have some empty cap space to fill in a few seasons anyway. Tanev plus our two seconds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Money Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 32 minutes ago, S'all Good Man said: but I don't think they'd be so quick to part with those guys... there's going to be a lot of pre-work with Drouin's agent on an extension so there's a lot at play here I think If Nashville moves Ellis, they won't have to lose Ekholm, Colin Wilson or Craig Smith in the expansion draft. So actually, it's quite likely that the Preds move a D-man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E. Lindros Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Would Tampa have interest in Hutton? The plus would have to be significant. Would Tampa ask for virtanen to go along with him plus say the Columbus Pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we could get a prospect as well if we take Callahan's contract back? Drouin is an easy upgrade over Baertschi as much as I like him but I think Granlund is the type of player who will be really valuable down the road.

missioncanucksfan Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 3 hours ago, MJDDawg said: This. We'd have to trade the players we'd want him to play with in order to get him. We just don't have the depth yet to get a player like this. well Tampa needs a D and it just so happens that Tryamkin is suddenly available. Yzerman would have no problem accommodating BFG as there are a few Russians on the team and yzerman just knows how to deal with Russians by having dealt with the best that's ever played the game. Tryamkin and our 2 2nd picks and we can even take on Callahans contract as well. If we walk away from the draft with one of Patrick, Hischier, or Glass plus Drouin, while utilizing a dormant asset, then that's a good days work Baertschi-Horvat-Drouin D. Sedin-H. Sedin-Boeser Virtanen-Sutter-Goldobin suddenly we have 3 very skilled lines I would have no issue locking up Drouin for 8yrs at 7m per as he is destined to become a 40+ goal scorer by next year or the year after. Also gives time for Boeser to develop with the twins for a year until Patrick, Hischier, or Glass can step in if I'm Benning, I'm pushing hard to get that guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard no on eating it. not if that contract becomes LTIR much like what Arizona did with their own little island of misfit contracts....datsyuk, pronger etc... besides...not like its YOUR money right? and ya, I would have no problem trading Baertschi too but Tryamkin is the focal point of any package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd totally rather let the chips fall where they may in the draft. flip them Goldobin + 2 2nds:D I'd hate to move them but Damn Daniel son. drouin be mad skillz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't nickle n dime the stars by trying to cheap them with bs bridge contracts. pay them, keep them happy. they are the reason the fans come, they put butts in seats. I truly have no issue with also giving Bo 7m over 8yrs. This is the downfall of drafting and acquiring good draft picks and skilled players. eventually they need to get paid and expect to get paid. if they can get rid of Erikssons anchor contract, that would help as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
