shazzam Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 If they move any of the big names out, you better bet a defenseman is the primary return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggs50 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Move Nuge to the wing. Edmonton needs all that depth lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greene02 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Move Nuge to the wing. Edmonton needs all that depth lol RNH is actually a good defensive player. He's a competent 1st line center. He'll look even better when he's forced onto the 2nd line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcakes Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Edmonton needs D who can play now and they have the assets to get that if they have the will. Canucks have a goalie they would like but not the D. Sorry, Sbisa is the right age but not the player. They want a guy like Tyler Myers or Seth Jones. I could really see RNH for Jones. Or Draisaitl + . It's a win-win because Nashville needs a centre. Nashville has the opposite problem, too much D and not enough forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirbs11 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 IMO if they dont trade Leon they wil have the same Jordan Stall problem Pits had, I would try a trade like Sbisa, Gaunce, Kassian and a 3rd for Draisaitl. EDM gets a bigger strong young Dman they are missing from there line up that is also under a decent contract for a few more years, a rough PWF that they need in there top 6 to play with all there small skilled guys and they get a Center prospect better suited for a 3rd line role than Draisaitl. Canucks shed about 5 mil in cap space, will getting our Future #1 center to replace Henrik. Having Draisaitl, Horvat and McCann as the franchise future 3 forwards is the perfect mix of Size, Speed and Skill that a team needs. Lines Next year Sedin Sedin Burrows Baertschi Bonino Vrbata Higgins Draisaitl Virtanen Kennins Horvat Dorsett Hansen To me it looks nice seeing more young skiled players finally taking over our line up, as we have been an Aging team for the last 10 yrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lockhart Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I think Yakupov should be the odd mean out, just signed a reasonable contract. You can never have too many centers, McDavid can start as the 3rd or 2nd line centre next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the perfect age for it. They won't move him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BI3KSA- Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I def get rid of some of their others centers long before him. He's one of the types of players that are big parts of winning cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nice thing about leon is his size up the middle but he isnt suited for 3rd line centre role. They could make it work sure with rolling 4 lines type of NHL we have now but if they could move him for a big checking centre and add some defensive help or goaltending they would be better off. Alhough Nuge and Mcdavid is a lot of skill in the middle its lacking strength and edge. Gaunce would be ideal and he is already well developed physically and mentally. Plus with having Mccann and Cassels we could afford the swap. Id think they would probably want Tanev with Gaunce, sbisa would be another good fit as he is still younger, affordable and they need the physicality on the back end. Gaunce, Sbisa, Markstrom For Draisatl Then sign O'connor if possible. Another potential move would be Demko and Gaunce for Drats. It would also be interesting to see if Miller would consider it. He would solidify their goaltending position for next 2 years while they have young guns on ELC's. Sell him on the fact he will be backup here, edmonton would have a chance at playoffs with him and a good coach, and its still close to west coast. Miller corrado and Gaunce for Drats and edm 2nd?
