higgyfan Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Trade Lu for Okposa, NYI 2nd(45) + Dipietro Trade Edler for Justin Abdelkader, Detroit 2nd(48) + rights for Ian White Trade Booth, Ballard for picks/prospects Buy out Dipietro or bury in minors UFA Ian White, Jagr, Boyd Gordon Sedins (12.2M) Jagr (5M) Burr (4.5) Kes (5M) Okposa (2.8M Justin Abdelkader (1.8M) Jordan Schroeder (1.5) Kass (.899) Higgins (2.5) Boyd Gordon (1.5M) Hansen (1.35M) Hamhuis(4.5) Garry (4.6) Ian White (3.5M) Bieksa(4.6) Alberts(1.5) Tanev (1.5) Schneids (4) Lack (.750) Cap hit: $63.28 Some may think that Abdelkader isn’t worth Edler, but his contract is incredibly good (1.8M until 2016). I think putting him on a line with Kass would protect and support Schroeder effectively. Thoughts? Suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiznac Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 This makes our team weaker ....... jagr with the sedins??? okposo is a 3rd liner at best. i like the Loungo to NYI but it would be with a pick for Niedereider most likely..... Not big on trading Edler unless it gets us a 2nd or 1st pair winger like Ryan or Eriksson or someone of that caliber to make the Sedins or Kesler a better line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwijibo Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Under the new CBA you can't "bury Depietro in the minors" It would only reduce his cap hit by $900 000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.Gill Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 New York will never give up on Kyle Okposo, he was their best players in the playoffs according to Gord Miller (TSN) ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pears Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 The deals are decent. I'd try to sign Gonchar over White but that's just personal preference This makes our team weaker ....... jagr with the sedins??? okposo is a 3rd liner at best. i like the Loungo to NYI but it would be with a pick for Niedereider most likely.....
