swflyers28 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Flip Mes and you are good. I will be happy if Mez gets flipped, expensive scratch. But we don't need Kesler. Our centers are Giroux, Schenn, Couturier and Lecavalier if he happens to move back to center. Our fourth line guy is changing. Couturier is a great shutdown center and he's young. Giroux is a top player, Brayden Schenn has been great. I don't see us trading for Kesler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodnessgracious Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 No way they give us Drouin, even though if this is true thats what Gillis should be saying. I would 100% trade Kesler for Drouin straight up. Guy is gonna be amazing. But I could see them flipping us the 1st and 2nd they got, plus something like Connelly. Kesler wont go to Tampa, Shero will nab him if he goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian42 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 At minimum: Etem, Bonino, 1st 2015 This would be an awesome trade Bonino has really emerged this year. Bonino has more points then kesler (1 more) and he's signed for 1.9 million for 3 years after this year. Etem has a lot of potential as a goal scorer too.

Ilya Mikheyev Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Callahan + Connelly + 1st 2015 + 3rd 2014 for Kesler? Torts probably knows whether Callahan will re-sign under him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firestorm238 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Kesler and Shinkaruk for Drouin and a 2nd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senpai Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Kesler and Shinkaruk for Drouin and a 2nd? I wonder how drunk Stevie Y would have to be to make that trade.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazzy Desjardins Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Lol I love these pot stirring "analysts"... Would Kesler waive for Tampa?? Sure the whole team is slumping.. But why trade the only player that can put the puck in the net. Kes is invaluable to the Canucks.. A heart and soul-er, and would be a great veteran mentor for our young players along with Hank.. Especially for Horvat, it's one thing to get younger but if you trade EVERYONE for young players and picks with no decent vets then u turn into the Oilers! Keep Kesler!!!!!!

morrissex95 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 We're not getting Drouin or Hedman from the Lightning because it would totally defeat the purpose of them making the deal. NYR 1st, Connolly and maybe another piece. Tampa Bay becomes an instant cup contender. Not to mention, they've got a really solid top 5 forward group of Stamkos, Drouin, Kesler, Filppula and Callahan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoast Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Don't know about this but my first thought is a crafty centreman would have two crazy targets with Stamkos and Kesler on his wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tangerines Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Kesler to Tampa for Cononlly, 2014 1st, 2015 1st(NYR) and Callahan. He'll re-sign with Torts at the helm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 And then what? We wait til the draft where his value will most certainly be lower? Then wait for him to get disgruntled. Another Luongo situation would be great. Then sell him for a lot less than what we could get today or just wait til he becomes a ufa and lose him in free agency. This team appears to be going nowhere fast. If MG has approval to trade him the best move has got to be today in my opinion. There is still no actual evidence Kesler actually wants out. If we don't move him, we keep him...quite simple. The first line of your statement is correct. Aqua man is the one calling the shots If CDC thinks that ANY GM wouldn't have to consult ownership of any team on trading one of their top, Olympic medal and Selke winning forwards....

TheRussianRocket. Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Rumour has if, Pens didn't want to give up 3rd for Hemsky cause they are going to use it to get Kes. Also, Bylsma wanting management to get him as Kes impressed him a lot in Olympics. Pens willing To overpay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brocklovich Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Kesler to Tampa for Cononlly, 2014 1st, 2015 1st(NYR) and Callahan. He'll re-sign with Torts at the helm. That would be a decent trade but does Kes waive his NTC to go to Tampa and would Tampa make that deal knowing that 2015 picks are expensive as heck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadiangunner Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 any tampa return will not include Connolly, he is awful and a total bust. played 63 games 3 years ago for tbay but has only played 15 since. With his concussion history as well no way would I touch him in a kesler deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apricot Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Come on Gillis, do something!!!!!!!!!!!!! Retweeted by Farhan Lalji Ed Willes @willesonsports 1h According to intel from Pitt, Canucks ownership may be holding up Kesler deal. They want the playoff dough. Will make trade in summer If Gillis thinks we're making the playoffs then he must be smoking something. Gillis please trade Kesler now, we won't get a better deal in the off season. Teams are pushing to win the Stanley Cup, the addition of Kes is HUGE. If Kesler is still here when the clock hits noon, I'm gonna flip some bricks. COME ON GILLIS. HAVE SOME BALLS.
