[The God Proposal] Why Edler's stock is at peak, and Lu to Pit


Recommended Posts

To start this off I wanna say that after the Boston series it is presumable a big strong D man with a shot will become more valuable, a player like Alex Edler

Alex Edler has been some what inconsistent in Vancouver he can be a 50 point Norris caliber dman, or give up the series clinching goal single handedly.

What's the reality of the situation? The whole team was bad in the LA series not just Edler.

He is our best trading chip and we need to make a move now while Corrado and Tanev are becoming legitimate starters after a few games in the NHL each.

What can Edler get us? well before we do that let's try and figure Luongo out.

I could list all the teams potentially interested but it would be an entire other post, for a few reasons I say Pittsburg

1. No Solid goal tending to steal a series in any game. Luongo behind a great team in the Vancouver Canucks with all their defensive gaffs has performed phenomenally in the playoffs, often doing the best in games with tons of shots. and in the SCF at home had 2 SO's

2. Fleury can only be replaced if the Penguins give up to nothing, for a trade to work the Pens legitimately have to be ready to push for the cup again very soon.

3. Pittsburg has a lot of names to resign next year so it wouldn't be surprising to see a big name get moved if the right deal happens

Pittsburg signs Pascal Dupuis to a 3 year 3.5 million dollar contract

Luongo(Van retains 20% of salary[4.24 mil]), 1st, 1st 2014

Pascal Dupuis, Beau Bennett

Then

Edler, Bennett, Higgins, Raymond's rights, Ballard, 2nd(becomes 1st if Van wins SC)

Voracek, Couturier, Grossman, Briere

2013/14 line up

Dupuis/Kesler/Voracek<--- Makes Raymond and Higgins look silly

Sedin/Sedin/Briere<---- Needs le cup

Booth/Couturier/Burrows<--- Shut. Down. Line.

Hansen/Gaunce/Kassian/Jensen/Sestito/Lapierre/Weise<--- Holy crap depth(That isn't Ebbett)

Hamhuis Bieksa<--- Pray it works

Garrison Corrado<---Pray it works

Grossman Tanev<---Pray it works

Alberts Suave<--- Trust me the forward group and Schneider can carry us

Schneider

Lack/Canata

Dallas Eakins

This team beats,

Chiacgo

LA

Detroit

San Jose

Pittsburg

Boston

Lol at all these trade offers STILL including Ballard, Raymond, and a draft pick, when after years of these players being trade pieces NOTHING has come about from them. Not to mention this time it's Raymond's RIGHTS, not even the contract.

There is no future I see that all of those trades are made, let alone half of them or even the sedins off the first line.

You must be thinking of 2014/15 when Gillis is fired.

No way does florida move couterier and voracek. Thats the equivlant of moving Burrows and kesler off of our team.

More realisitic option is Edler for Couterier and pick.
