Nicklas Bo Hunter Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Seems like MTL really like PLD. lets assume they get the 4th overall in some sort of Subban deal. Arizona was linked to wanting arizona hometown boy Austin Matthews. They won't get him but there is another hometown kid that could be available at our pick number 5 (Matthew Tkachuk) To Van: 7th overall+ 20th Overall To Ari: 5th overall+ 33rd overall Van then drafts Jakub Chychrun at 7 Dante Fabbro at 20 our Blue line is set for the future.

RetroCanuck Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Why wouldn't Arizona make this deal with the oilers? Exactly the same trade and there is also a good chance Tkachuk goes as the #4 pick regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well edmonton would then get a 7th OA to draft a D instead of being at #4 where you almost have to draft a forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chon derry Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 this whole deal hinges on edm/ mont, 4th oa for subban , for edm, not to take tkachuk, then your proposal would work if ari would do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanev is a great defensive defensemen but we need some offence on the back end in the years to come. Edmonton would have to throw in a little though, 3rd round pick maybe.

Is Tanev's stock any higher than right now - at this draft? If we could get the Oiler's top pick, then we could take Tkatchuk and Dubois. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroCanuck Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 ya a Tkatchuk-Dubois-Boeser line in 2 years sounds pretty nice! But we need to get a number one-two D prospect soon so that he can mature and become a great player for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetroCanuck Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Hutton has shown he has the potential to be good but not a proven top pairing guy yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toews Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Arizona has already said that they are looking at defenseman in this draft. They desperately need a top 4 LD, which they can get with one of the 3 defenseman in this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their GM was on 1040 a week ago and he like Matthews and Tkatchuk and openly said it was good local talent was going so high in this draft. It was on the ?Sekeres and Price show within the last two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken kaniff Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I said the exact same trade on someones status a week ago. Great minds think alike . But yeah this trade would only work if Edmonton didn't take Tkachuk and PLD isn't available for us to pick. It would be a great scenario IMO. Others also aid Fabbro wouldn't be available at 20th but I think it would be worth it to trade up to get him. I get the feeling that he's going to be among the best D from this draft. Either way if this went down I think we would probably be set on D and could focus on our forward group Jakob Chychrun-Dante Fabbro Ben Hutton-Troy Stecher That would be pretty good IMO. (Chychrun is super undervalued. GMs will be kicking themselves when he turns out to be another Aaron Ekblad) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCNeil Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Most of this thread doesn't make a lot of sense. One thing that does. Edmonton would love to have Tanev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
