Mackcanuck Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I agree, we are definitely seeing trades being made earlier and earlier each year. I remember when you could wait until the day before or the day of and expect a plethora of activity. It was usually a pretty exciting day. I really don't understand doing trades earlier. You would think the selling team could get a higher return if they shopped around a bit more and left it closer to the deadline, increasing the pressure on the buying teams. But then again I'm no GM.

Earlier trades are working now because if there are more teams in on a player it drives the price higher, but if the selling team waits too long, then some teams would drop out because the price gets too high, so the price could start to drop If a selling team gets too greedy and waits too long the price could actually go down. Who knows, There could be some bargains available late Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Perhaps the NHL should put in a week long trade freeze prior to trade deadline. This would help out a major broadcast partner or two. Seems a good way to build interest, and viewers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanIsleCanucks Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I'm not curious. Kinda wish my wife was though. Lol thought same thing when I read the title to this thread...thought I'd stumbled into some dark corner of CDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinphase Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 It sucks that Bonino and Richardson got injured at the same time. I actually thought Richardson could be dealt before the deadline since Horvat emerged as a strong option for 3C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistolpro327 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 How is it not obvious what GMJB plan is? He will hold out for trades that will be considered steals at the deadline because owners and fans want playoff hopes and we have great depth to be a surprise team. The draft is where we will be big players in the trade market imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuporbust Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Ya tomorrow going to be boring. Seems like the big ones already happened , and don't see Benning doing anything that will be worth taking about. To be honest , I'm totally fine with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthNinja Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Trade deadline days have been kind of dull lately. The guys on TSN and Sportsnet look like fools talking all morning about the same deals over and over and over again. Trade deadline day has become completely lame and in reality means nothing these days. It is now more like trade deadline week. I remember taking the day off work to watch deadline day. Now sometimes it's a waste of time to even check the ticker every hour on dl day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
