I have no idea and I'm not sure he would honestly.. either way though Manson would be an intriguing guy for vegas at the ED.

They've apparently had discussions with him already last summer re his NMC. Feels like they will trade a D for a F and go 3D + 7F. Tampa and Colorado have been scouting them at the TDL - but not the best timing as they were heading to the playoffs. Also Lamoriello and Babcock were in Nashville for games 3 and 4 and Sportsnet speculates it's to watch their Ds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Lindholm, Montour, Theodore, Fowler and Vatanen. 5 puck movers, not much physicality but they can protect Fowler + Lindholm + Vatanen and the other two are exempt anyway. Their defence is set in stone for the next 5-10 years, and up front they've got skill and size coming through. Their one need is a star consistent goalie and maybe a bit more firepower up front to replace their big guns. They'll miss Kesler and Getzlaf in a year or two's time. For me I think the Ducks' needs is a young center. Too bad we have nothing to offer them. Might be a trade revolving around Gaudette for Theodore but we'd have to throw in a bit more, maybe Gaudette + Granlund for Theodore + late pick. Ducks get a decent center into the fold and a 20 goal scorer now, Canucks get a top puck moving defenceman. We replace Gaudette by drafting Vilardi/Mittelstatd/Glass and Granlund's numbers will be replaced by Dahlen/Goldobin/Boeser/Baertschi/Boucher. Draft another top defenceman in the top-10 in 2018. We're sorted Theodore - 2018 pick Juolevi - Stecher Hutton - Gudbranson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Montour doesn't qualify for the Vegas Expansion draft. I like where you are going with this though, but the target should be Manson, he's a very solid D man and they risk losing him for nothing to Vegas.

DownUndaCanuck Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I think after losing to what should have been a weaker, injured Nashville team (especially dropping 2 games to a team with no top-6 center), the Ducks will want a decent goalie. Whether Miller is still in his prime or not, that depends on what other teams think but I think he's still good for one more year of a Cup run. He'd be the perfect trade deadline move. At the trade deadline, depending on what happens to Anaheim's defence, it'd be nice to make a move like this: TO VAN: Shea Theodore + 2018 1st round pick TO ANA: Miller + Tanev + 2nd or 3rd round pick Of course this only works if they have cap room (eg. put a player on LTIR) so lots of things would have to fall into place. We should start looking at the long term now, don't blow our assets in a weak 2017 draft but load up in a deep draft. We add Theodore who is going to be a stud in himself, and a late 1st rounder. Take a defenceman with our 1st round pick (probably top-10, where there are plenty of very top-end D-men) and a powerforward with Anaheim's pick. Dahlen - 2017 5th overall pick - Boeser Baertschi - Horvat - UFA Granlund - Sutter - Goldobin 2018 ANA pick - Gaunce - Virtanen Theodore - 2018 VAN 1st Juolevi - Stecher Hutton - Gudbranson Sbisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin's Dog Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I could see JB dealing one of the small wingers he'a accumulated: Granlund, Baert., Dahlin or even Goldibin as part of a package for a young PMD. I think Anaheim will be forced to move a DMan and take back a forward to help them in the future and minimize ED loss. I see TB being a very likely trade partner for Anaheim.

Eastsidenuck Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 Anaheim is jammed on D with puck movers. Say Manson gets taken in the expansion draft and they buy out KB or he waives. That leaves them with a plethora of young puck movers but hardly any real physical guys on the back end capable of heavy minutes. I think they would be willing to take a bigger Dman that is physical and good in his own end via FA, allowing them to move one of their younger guys for help up front. That's where I think we could be a willing partner if they are interested in any of our wingers. Any one of their young dman would step in and be a critical part of our top 4 and they could use the help up front. Because they have so many capable dmen I have a feeling they would be willing to gamble one of them to acquire some talent on the wing since their window for a cup for guys like kes and getzlaf/perry is closing soon.. I think someone is going to capitalize on anaheims abundance of dmen especially with the ED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 ANA should throw a big pkg to Mtl for Price. Ducks: Gibson, Rakell & Vatanen MTL: Price Habs should consider a rebuild/tool anyhow. Get 4 more good pieces for Weber. Their blend can't seem to cut it. By dealing Price, Webs & Pacc, they could re-stock half a frickin'team.
