  1. Jake would go some of the way to replacing what they thought they were getting in Jesse. Sutter, Jake and 2020 2nd.... I'd be fine with that.
  2. its freaky. Its not over yet tho, there may be an epic collapse in Torts future. Should be a good one tonight tho, if Tampa's not desperate for this one then they should be booted. The NYI are the ones really impressing me tho. I wanted Trotz here, but the timing wasn't right.
  3. well to be fair some of them have Lucic coming our way. I disagree on Sutter, he should be fully healthy and ready to go soon. He would help them a great deal by allowing RNH to take more offensive roles again.
  4. ideally yes but I don't think anyone else is in a position to cough up a top 10.
  5. The more this discussion goes on the more I realize that Edmonton has made itself nearly impossible to trade with. NMC for Russel? and Lucic? wtf?
  6. what about Tanev and Sutter for Gagner, Russel and their 8th? they'd have to convince Russel to waive but he might. But I mean, who the hell gives Russel a NTC? oh Edmonton. Nope scratch this - its a NMC! I thought it was a NTC.
  7. I'm fine with the retention part, thats worth another top 10 pick imo. I could see someone taking Lucic off their hands for that 8th tho. If we didn't have Loui's contract it would be hard to say no to. But we do. So unless Jim can move Loui prior to the draft I can't see it.
  8. well, it may have to be on this team next year. The OP is talking about working with what we have. Who else is going to top 40 pts in that spot on todays roster? And 40 pts is in 2nd line scoring territory, which is what that line would be.
  9. its going to cost them a 1st rounder to get someone like Tanev at the TDL, thats why I think the 2020 1st back to them is too high. Tanev and Larsson on their right side gives them far better options than they have now - e.g., Nurse-Tanev could be a great pairing for them. Remember, my premise is desperation.
  10. We could retain on both tho to make it work. If we were actually considering Lucic, then it would have to be something like Lucic + 8th oa for our 2nd or something cap-dumpy like that. We could actually afford to do that cap-wise but man would it be unpopular.
  11. the rights to Stralman might be available in about 8 hours I doubt Lee wants to go anywhere, but maybe Dzingel. Still curious what it will take to sign Ferland, I do think he'd add a needed dimension to the EP-Boeser line, very much in line with Burr and the Sedins.
  12. I think if we take Gagner back you might have a deal. They get to push RNH up the scoring chain, Sutter really helps them in a shut down role, sheds salary and a potential wild card scorer in Goldy.
  13. because its desperation time over there, and another top 10 does them no good for making the playoffs. They need immediate quality help.
  14. I think adding that 2020 1st is too much - make it our 2nd this year and thats a good deal for the Coil imo.
  15. I never said swap, but that is an option. No, I want that #8 pick and our #10.
  16. Looking at the top 10 picks, I think by far our best shot at getting another pick in that range is with Edmonton. Total tire fire, frustrated superstar, angry fan base, only 8.4 mil in cap space + whatever the cap goes up by. Seems like a perfect storm to get that pick. Can we put together a package that makes sense? I think we could get that pick for sure if in the scenario we take Lucic off their hands, but there has to be a better option than that. Interested to hear some ideas on what gets us that #8 pick.
  17. so far right its left. Kenney openly criticized AB oil executives during the campaign, it was right out of the lefty play book
  18. yup, all Ford did was write Trudeau a cheque. And the idiot is turning down federal infrastructure money because he doesn't want to have photo-ops with himself and Trudeau building anything in Ontario. Kenney will do the same thing. But it will be better for cities, who are now going to get even more money sent their way. Which is a good thing imo, we're more impacted at the municipal level anyway so if we can bypass some of our dumber provincial politicians and get projects built its a win for all of us.
