Miltt Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I'm sure everyone knows now that Malkin wants out of the Pit FAST and with Vancouver as one of his probable choices, I think JB needs to jump on this opportunity to land one of the league's best. To Vancouver Malkin To Pittsburgh Vrbata, Higgins, Bieksa, McCann, 2016 2nd, 2017 3rd I'm not sure if that will allow us much wiggle room to get under the cap but with a chance like this we definitely need to get on it. I don't want to give up McCann and I'm sure some will criticize trading him away but you gotta give to get! Thoughts, suggestions!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Not even close to fair value Talks begin with Horvat ,1st , Edler IMO To which Benning says NO In short Malkin isn't coming here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggy Bank Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Horvat, Vrbata, Hamhuis* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriGold Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Sometimes in the real world but never in hockey is this saying true. "One mans trash is another mans treasure" To even possibly consider this I think this would be the starting point. Nick Bonino + Bo Horvat + 1st 2015 + Frank Corrado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Faulk Yourself Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Horvat, Virtanen, 2015 1st, 2016 1st, 2017 1st Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonMexico Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Horvat, Virtanen, 2015 1st, 2016 1st, 2017 1st Price has to come down a bit if you are going to saddle your team with his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48MPHSlapShot Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Virtanen, Bonino, 2015 1st, Hamhuis? I have no idea. Probably take a lot more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flickyoursedin Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 If you can do it without trading Horvat, McCann, Virtanen or Tanev I'd do it. Maybe the Twins and some b prospects but I doubt they'd trade for players that old. Just wouldn't be good player management. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiboynux4lifee******* Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 trade Bieksa, Hansen, Kenins, AV's jacket, Fin's mask, Willie D's shaven off moustache too lol haha No chance in hell Malkin comes to Vancity. Think to yourself what can other teams offer, well here is one example Oilers- Yakipov, Eberle, 1st(not mcdavid) Washington - Bowey, Johanson, Wilson, 1ST LOL Malkin is a elite player and we don't even have the pieces because other teams will out bid us Anahiem - Rakell, Etem, Theodore, 1st, Ritchie It will take a huge over payment to get a Malkin and we don't have the pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Cup1Dream Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I think what Pittsburgh would want is Horvat, Tanev, Vrbata and 1st + a prospect. If it's only that much, I'll take it in a heartbeat. Malkin might have a cap hit of $9.5 million, but he's worth it if we're only giving up those 5 pieces. We shed $9.5 mill from Vrbata and Tanev, so it'll work for the coming year and we can deal with next and future years as it comes since we will have big contracts ending soon (next, and next couple of years). Losing Horvat hurts a little but Malkin is only 28 and signed until 36 he's your number 1 for the next 8 years (Plus maybe a switch in scenery and becoming the face of the franchise will pump him up, not to mention he's a monster, literally given his size). Losing 1st and prospect is nothing when you get a superstar back. Not to mention you still have the Sedins on another line. I would be pumped if that's all it took to steal Malkin from the Pens.

thejazz97 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Oilers- Yakipov, Eberle, 1st(not mcdavid) Nope. RNH + Draisaitl straight up. Maybe a 1st (non-McDavid) or 2nd is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Malkin is a superstar and would warrant something like this: 2 x top-6 forwards / top-4 defencemen + 1 A-grade prospect + 1st round pick, ideally top-15. The Canucks don't have much, and the Penguins want defence, but how about this? TO VAN: Malkin TO PIT: Vbrata + Hamhuis + Virtanen + 1st (throw in a defensive prospect like Corrado if they want too).

Skirbs11 Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Horvat, McCann, Virtanen 2015 1st, 2016 first and they might not hang up in 60 seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I agree with people on here mostly. It would take an insane amount, most likely including Horvat. In short, probably not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnBurner Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Wow. Some of you guys are completely out to lunch. For you to give up that much for Malkin is absolutely asinine. Seriously. You're giving up WAY too much for just one player. He can't even get the Penguin's into the Stanley Cup final's along side Crosby and company. Thank God most of you aren't running this team... into the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
