Lord Gillis Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Apparently the Wild are listening offers on Niederreiter because of their cap/exp. draft situation. Should the Canucks go after him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckmen84 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I would love to have this guy. It would be costly to aquire him but the wild are in expansion draft troubles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well obviously, but we'll have to send them something in return. Eriksson can go the other way xD Seems fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethunder Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 To Toronto: Tanev To Minnesota: Kapanen, Toronto 1st To Vancouver: Niederreiter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logic Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I love this idea. Nino fits in well with our age group, has proven to be consistent and provides some much needed physicality up front. Virtanen ( Could be Nino 2.0 ) Van second 2017 Columbus second 2017 Not sure what Minny would be looking for? I would also move Tanev for Nino 1 for 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also move Tanev for Nino 1 for 1 I certainly do think a trade involving Tanev would be a good idea. Unpopular opinion, but I personally think Tanev is overrated on here. Never played more than 70 games in an NHL season, and has only reached that number once. I like Tanev and his steady defense, but he brings like no offense and is more injury prone than Salo.

Canuck Surfer Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Problem with this concept is then losing Granlund or Baer to Vegas. On its own a great idea. Cumulatively not so much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mll Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Tanev does not solve their cap problem and they are thinking of moving on from Brodin because he brings too little offence. Also they have Suter (NMC), Spurgeon, Brodin, Dumba, Scandella to protect for expansion. At F: Parise (NMC), Koivu (NMC), Pominville (NMC), Granlund, Niederreiter, Coyle and Staal. It sounds like Zucker is the odd man out. They are trying to trade Pominville but he has a NMC and a 5.6M cap hit for still two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 5 hours ago, mll said: They are trying to trade Pominville but he has a NMC (expansion) and a 20-team list where he cannot be traded to. He has two years left at 5.6M and a buyout is a 4.4M cap hit this season. He had 47pts last season and is 34. I think this is the likely scenario. They'll either package a prospect with Pominville to get someone to take him, or they'll buy him out prior to the expansion draft. Then they have money and protection spots for all the forwards. Losing Brodin or Scandella will hurt though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than Spurgeon and Suter their Ds have not had good seasons. Brodin brings too little offence and he's been rumoured available for some time.

Gaudette Celly Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Rumours at the time were that that he and Kassian were principals in a trade with Vancouver, so Benning likely has interest but may not have or want to give what Minny needs, unless it's someone with XD exemption like Hutton.
