[Proposal] Van/Buf plus others


Recommended Posts

To BUF Cassels,Richardson,Shinkaruk & 1st rd 2016

To Van Myers & Islanders 1st rd 2015 ( Buf retains 30 % of Myers contract)

To CBJ Tanev,Matthias

To Van Foligno, Phi 3rd rd 2015 & conditional pick if foligno doesn't resign

To Phi Kassian

To Van Couturier

To Ott Sbisa & Liberati

To Van Wiercioch & 5th rd 2015

I know giving up Tanev sucks but I think this lineup gives us a solid top 9. Myers & Wiercioch give us size @ 6'8 & 6'5.

Sedin/Sedin/Vrbata

Foligno/Bonino/Burrows

Higgins/Couturier/Hansen

Vey/Horvat/Dorsett

Sestito

Edler/Myers

Hamhuis/Bieksa

Wiercioch/Weber

Stanton

Miller

Foligno would be nice, but Tanev is going to be our shut down defender for years to come.

Couturier is younger and better than kassian... He had 39 points last season, so theres no way that happens.

Whats the point of the Sbisa for Wiercioch trade it doesn't really adress and of our problems.

And i'm sure Buffalo could do better for Myers.

You need to consider contracts more.

Both Richardson and Mattias are UFAs the end of the season.

You are trying to trade them to teams that would need a miracle to make the playoffs this year.

Teams don't really want to trade for guys like that. They playout the rest of the season, miss the playoffs, and they sign with anyone else they can. Anyone that will give them a few thousand more, or a better shot at post season.

None of those trades make sense.

Myers AND a 2015 1st for one good prospect and a year delay on a 1st rounder from a better team? Plus they retain salary? That is beyond a pipe dream.

Trade Tanev (an RFA and one of our steadiest defensive dmen) for a pending UFA? Really? If Foligno bolted it would be Tanev for a 3rd.

Kassian for Couturier is a pretty big pipe dream too. Maybe in 5 years the value would be there but certainly not now.

Sbisa for Wiercoch? Ottawa takes that and laughs in JB's face.

I wouldnt mind acquiring Couturier and Foligno, but i feel the trade value is off. We would have to give up a lot more. A definate No to the Wiercioch deal, and why does everyone want Myers? I Would much rather have Yandle.

To further that, why would anyone want Foligno? He is mysteriously having a career season in a contract year. He is making 3m per season atm. Are you willing to pay for his career year? This is the wrong type of player to acquire.
