BuretoMogilny Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 A ton of posts, including me making crazy trades getting us Mckinnon, Jones etc etc from trading lou swapping picks, Edler etc. I decided to put together a realistic team, ignoring what picks/prospects we get but there needs to be trades but again all realistic. 1. Trade Lou - to where who knows, so that's an easy gimme, I have not made any lineup changes based on what we get back, just that we free up cap space. Hopefully a first round pick is involved. 2. Trade Ballard and Higgins to the Islanders for Matt Martin and a 2nd. Isles need vet dmen, they need vet wingers. They are getting ready to take the next step. A package with Lou would be great but who knows. Higgins is from NY and would be going HOME so he'd waive his limited for sure and they get a hometown boy. 3. Booth is traded once healthy for a pick. 4. Hardest part is Edler and the signings. But Eddy and our pick to Philly for Coutourier and their pick #11. 5. Schoeder hopefully packaged with a pick to move higher in the draft. 6. Sign Clarkson for 4.5 7. Sign Horton for 5.2 8. Sign Fistric for 2.2, Tanev for 2, and Alberts as depth for 1.42 9. Within this, we can likely get a top 10 pick in the draft and moving up with a trade of that pick and a player like Schroeder and a 2nd next year may move us into the top 5. So we can likely get another young center or great winger in our pool. slightly over cap and we need Guance to make it. But he's likely ready. He has the size and smarts so if its the third line he can do it.

Smashian Kassian Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I don't think we will be able to sign both Horton and Clarkson, I think someone will offer Clarkson more. Also, that NYI trade isn't good, I would rather Higgins than martin. And finally. That defense doesn't look too good, Fistric isn't an adequate replacement for Edler, and we were already having problem defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marleau_12 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Fistric for $2.2M? Fack that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Disagree 1. Our problem isn't our defenseman its our schemes, coaches will change that 2. Need to give up edler to get the high pick and couturier 3. Perhaps we can't get both...agreed, as i said the signings are the hard part 4. Matt Martin has led the NHL in hits for the past 3 seasons. He hits 3-4 x a night is big, fights and is fast. He is what we have been lacking on this team since the cup run. 5. Fistric would be in the bottom pairing. It was just how it was set up in capgeek.

Van bc Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 To get rid of Luo will involve taking on some other ridiculous contract so when we do loose him cap space wont be gained sorry bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyLow_ Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I don't think we'll sign any big names to be honest, we'll just be in the same cap position we are now moving forward. We need young talent, so i'm on board with the trades towards that. The rest I don't agree with at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuretoMogilny Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 1. I do somewhat agree, but still. I just don't think its a good idea to trade Edler and downgrade our defense that much. Cause it can be a real strength to our team with the players we have. 2. Nah, I would rather trade Bieksa, yeah he may not return a high pick and Couturier but he would still bring home a very nice return, and we have our own players to give an opportunity too (Gaunce/Schroeder, yes they aren't Couturier but they are still good players with promising upside and we gotta give them a chance to get there) 3. Yeah exactly, I think someone will go nuts on both guys and they will both walk away from free agency with nice deals that will pay them more than they are worth. 4. Still not at the price of Higgins, Higgins is a valuable 7th forward who fits our team like a glove. 5. Yeah I kinda thought that was the case. But still even: Hamhuis - Bieksa Garrison - Tanev Fistric - Corrado Isn't something I am crazy about. I would rather deal Bieksa and go: Hamhuis - Garrison Edler - Tanev ???? - Corrado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhippy Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 so would I but he's got a ntc...Edler's doesn't kick in until July? I know its a big issue bc he took the discount to stay and we'll never sign a player to a discount again short term....but long term people forget, they get its a business. And if he's sent to a decent spot people will ignore it. I love edler and think he will turn into a great dman, but have to give something to get something. Otherwise our best asset is Schnieds and maybe he's the one to move. But Lou would have to get his head around staying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
