Gstank29 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Barkov bjustad Ekblad and Huberdeau are probably all off limits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockhart Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Maybe Gudbranson could be part of a package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I read that. Tallon VERY specific that NOBODY under 25 is available. Luongo Campbell for Kessel...honestly Toronto screwed themselves they deserve it. As for the Panthers, if they're not willing to give up anyone young they're not willing to trade for a player like Kessel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Florida would be stupid to do this. They'd be making the same mistake that the Leafs made. Kessel cannot be 'the guy' on any team. He belongs on a team like Anaheim/Chicago/NYR where there is plenty of forward talent and he can just be a complimentary piece.

Jiggs50 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Tallon will rob Nonuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggy Bank Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 TML should trade Kessel for a good chunk of Florida's Vets. Then they can sell at deadline and what they gain from the deadline deals will be their return for Kessel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noseforthenet Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Tallon would rob Toronto blind of Kessel. He's quite shrewd. I could see: Gudbranson/Kulikov Bergenheim Upshall 1st rounder Trochek For Kessel Jokinen Guessing Florida has a mandate to spend their money wisely and if they have to spend money, they had better do it on one quality piece than do it on 2 who are not so great.

Derp... Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 TO needs to go full BUffalo and sell everything for picks and players then sell the player for pick and get 6 picks in the top 100 this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 This sounds a lot like the "Tallon interested in moving #1 pick" crap that went around. Yeah, sure he is...if he can offload a lot of old players or bad contracts. Stupid rumour is stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Florida would be stupid to do this. They'd be making the same mistake that the Leafs made. Kessel cannot be 'the guy' on any team. He belongs on a team like Anaheim/Chicago/NYR where there is plenty of forward talent and he can just be a complimentary piece. Well he'd be a quality hired gun for an offensively-deprived team. Bjugstad leads the team in scoring with 35 points-- Kessel has 47. Ekblad, Bjugstad, Barkov, Huberdeau and Kulikov should arguably be the top guys moving forward so Phil should gel with either of those top young centers. Tallon would rob Toronto blind of Kessel. He's quite shrewd. I could see: Gudbranson - young guy who can log minutes on the back end Bergenheim - vet who can go for a 2nd still Upshall - 3rd round pick? 1st rounder - if this year's it could still be a high-ish pick (mid-10's?) Trochek - they could afford to give him up, but he put up nearly 1/2 p.p.g. and is a decent prospect. For Kessel Jokinen Yeah that doesn't look too bad (young roster player, two vets for picks, 1st, decent prospect), I mean seeing how Nashville got Franson and Santo for a song this could fly esp. if the Leafs are going for picks and youth. The Panthers could get good quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking the Leafs will be getting a 2nd overall alone is a pipe dream, let alone throwing in Pirri, another 1st and a roster player. Leafs fans need to lower their expectations. That aint happening. Retain a whack of salary and what remains in your proposal would be a relative slam dunk in their position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 He could do away with a bunch of B prospects and be fine asset wise. Petrovic, Trocheck and Grimaldi plus a cap dump and Tor is getting some youth. Hockey trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 From Nonis interview today: “Yes, we signed Phil long-term; we think he’s a good player. I think he’s still top-20 in goals this year despite the fact he’s had a difficult time lately, but he doesn’t have a [full] no-trade,” Nonis said. “We do have teams we can trade him to. You need to have some flexibility to change your team, and we have that.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush17 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I would try and swing a deal for some of their prospects. Huberdeau could be a center piece if fla believes in Barkov as their #1 center. Could prob build a package around Huberdeau & Gundbranson. Both are high picks believe 3rd overall for both in their respective drafts. Might hurt a bit but to make big player deals sometimes you have to give up assets u cherish. Gundbranson has been pretty good but he hasn't lived up to his 3rd overall billing. He's sti young though but I don't see Huberdeau being packAged for someone older then him. Prob around Gunner. I'm just speculating tho wish I had flas roster handy (on cell) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luongo Campbell for Kessel...honestly Toronto screwed themselves they deserve it. As for the Panthers, if they're not willing to give up anyone young they're not willing to trade for a player like Kessel The article said that no ''young stud'' would be available. Then goes on to mention they have ten roster players under 25. There is no quote that says no player under 25 would be made available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 "Well we know Lu would never waive his NTC - he will retire a Panther" I'm not sure, but believe that, because Lou waived his NTC to go to Florida, the ntc is now dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
