  1. you brought your kids up, guy.

    you're being ridiculous man. you're threatening people on the internet. grow the hell up.

    both of you have your opinion, im no mod, but i would think if this conversation doesnt go to private messages one or both could be suspended from the forum.

    just want to talk hockey, time for ppl to let it go or continue it in another way. Warhippy: i can see why you took your stance, but no point going on as it seems like you wont get anywhere by doing so. Just how some people are, cant do anything about it.

    still dont see us at all interested in a sutter trade. maybe jokinen,bennett and pouliot. jokinen is a decent player, wanted us to get him for a measely pick last deadline

  2. that's a st. louis trade i'd actually make, and i'd even think about it without rattie.

    we need quality coming back, i dont want quantity or picks we have to wait for to make an impact. Rattie may be ready next year, schwartz is now. If the blues want a Cup, they wouldnt hesitate to make a deal like this. Kesler gives them a great 1-2 punch down the middle. Probably one of the hardest tandems down the middle for teams to face. Both are physical and like to hit. Stewart is for cap reasons, maybe it could be berglund instead?

    THink berglund halak/elliot and maybe a pick could get them Miller. Adding Miller and Kesler would really improve their team.

  3. neither the GM nor Player has yet to come out and deny the rumour. Would think if it was false one of them would have denied it last night, maybe this morning?\

    If the blues want kesler they need to move schwartz to get us interested

    Schwartz,Stewart,Rattie

    Still leaves the blues with

    Backes

    Kesler

    Roy

    Berglund

    Lappy

    Sobotka

    still lots of C depth their. Berglund is a great 3rd line center, they are using him on the wing now.

    Shinkaruk Schwartz Kassian

    Jensen Horvat Rattie

    Decent future top 6

    Couturier and simmonds, or B.schenn plus (hagg, mcginn)

    Jenner plus (rychel, anisimov, 1st rounder)

    Nyquist plus(jurco,sproul,pulkinnen)

    Strome plus(martin,pulock)

    Stepan plus(mcilrath) jt miller?

    Turris plus(wiercoch,stone)

    Kucherov plus(connolly,panik,palat,purcell)

    The ''PLus'' would vary with the above players. I wouldnt mind seeing Stepan coming here, good history with torts. Not sure what else we could get.

    We wont trade kesler in our division, we didnt move schneids, cant see us help anaheim.

    lots of options, with decent returns possible, problem is have we scouted enough to make a big trade like this and known what we would potentially be getting in return?

    Could be better to wait till the draft? But if these rumours dont get squashed, its going to be a big distraction to the team, media will be all over it, we just went through it with the goalies dont want this happening again

  4. I'm just gonna speculate here and say maybe Kesler is no longer playing partially because of his hand, but partially because MG is trying to trade him?

    sounds right, he can play as he did play 4 games at the olympics. If he would just squash the rumours right away this would quiet down, the more time goes without kesler releasing a statement the more it becomes more of a possibility

  5. That seemed a little crazy to me a week ago but now I'm not so sure.

    Maybe a slight tweak with Luke out for Morin/Hagg and I could see that being a good idea. Or grab Gothisbehere as well and flip him to Florida in a Lou deal, if we're going all in.

    Also like Laughton, McGinn and Couturier so there could be lots of moving pieces possible.

    yes definitely an ability to tweak the deal. Think a deal could be made, let them keep couturier, have some interest in hagg or mcginn. Laughton similar to Horvat?

    Apparently 2 metropolitan teams are interested. gotta believe Holmgren is in on the action, he always is

  6. You're probably right but they have good centre prospects, Zib and Lazar to name a couple.

    Ottawa's D is horrible and have the 3rd worst goals against in the league despite having 2 good goaltenders. Edler and Karlsson playing together for the next decade had to be somewhat enticing, especially considering Edler has such a good contract.

    they do have some depth yes. Wonder how far away lazar is, maybe 3rd line C next year? Sure looked good at wjc
