silver_surfer Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I used some rumours as a starting point (Kesler to Pitt and Edler to Det) and the needs of Anaheim (2/3 Centre). I think the values are pretty even assuming the Ottawa pick is top 15 and Pittsburgh is 25-30, and that Edler would waive his NTC to go Detroit. Trade Kesler to Pittsburgh for Sutter, Pouliot, 2014 1st Sutter, Schroeder, Pittsburgh 1st to Anaheim for Ottawa 1st (B Ryan trade) Edler, Ericksson to Detroit for Jurco and Sproul This gives us two picks in the top 15 and hopefully draft two of Draisaitl (TankNation), Virtanen, Perlini and Ritchie. UFA Signing Santorelli Backup Goaltender Buyout/Dump Booth 14-15 Lineup Sedin Sedin Burrows Jurco Draisaitl Kassian Matthias Horvat Hansen Higgins Richardson Santorelli Sesito Garrison Tanev Stanton Bieksa Hamhuis Sproul Lack Thomas (For craps and giggles) Obvious that 2015 won't be a terribly exciting year either but an "Anaheim style retool on the fly" will take two seasons. But with Shink, Jensen, Grenier, Gaunce, Corrado, Pouliot and Markstrom playing in Utica, and two more 1st round picks on the way. The future is much brighter.

jaysavi Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 A whole has to happen for that future. I cant see GMMG or a new GM being that bold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thad Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Doubt Anaheim does it. If they want a third line centre it won't cost a top 10 pick. I'd rather make a deal with Pitt that involves Bennett and pouliot. They keep sutter so they can play Kes on the wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 People really need to learn to use tags, there's a reason all the threads have [Proposal], [Discussion], etc. in them. EDIT: good on you for putting in tags, OP. Most don't learn and their proposals keep getting locked. As far as the trades, we trade Kesler and Schroeder for Pouliot and a 1st? I get that it's a better first than Pittsburgh's but that doesn't make sense to me. I'd put Jurco and Sproul as underpayment for Edler and Eriksson as well. And people are complaining that Horvat, Markstrom and Matthias aren't enough back for Schneider and Luongo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish that we could be selling our assets at their zenith, but I think that was last summer. I'm worried that if the assets aren't moved that the "retool" will be more like Edmonton's and not Anaheim's. I have no faith the MG can pull off a win of trade with Shero or Holland Kesler for Sutter, Pouliot, a 1st and a 3rd Edler for Mantha and Sproul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slappipappi Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I assume that Markstrom is no longer waiver eligible as of next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
