Not liking my Edmonton proposal. At first I was thinking of Edler but I know everyone would tear into me over the NYC.  The biggest thing here is to acquire that 4th pick from EDM to complete this. I can't see the Jets turning that offer down, but you never know.

Still don't think the Jets would do the deal but the asking price seems fair. Think they would just rather keep Laine though.

 

That said, there is no way Edmonton accepts that deal. The thing with the highest value going there way is the 2017 1st. Everything else is spare tires.

This was my original thought

 

Edler

Sbisa

Etem

 

But I know how cdc reacts to his NTC. So to replace him I added 2017 1st and Pedan. This gives the Oilers size and experience to go with their team full of inexperienced youth. There has to be a way to make this happen without sacrificing our young core.

Just going to copy and paste this from the other 4 lets get Laine/2nd overall threads

 

OK.  Let's finish this for once and for all.

 

To entice Chevy who has literally 0 need for anything we might have just to move up 3 spots try this on for size, and @Monty please let me know if I missed anything out

 

2016 and 2017 1st round pick, Bo Horvat, Jake Virtanen or Brock Boeser, Chris Tanev or Benjamin Hutton and a 2017 2nd round pick.

 

Minimum.

 

Why?

 

Because they have literally zero needs for what we might offer them and Laine represents the literal final piece of their puzzle in what is the most complete,  youngest and literally deepest skilled group of young players and prospects in the league

 

Now.  Still want Laine?  And before you go telling me I am nuts, remember @Monty is a Jets fan and if i recall lives there and knows that org probably better than we do the canucks.

 

So, still want to overpay?

 

The edit**

 

For this particular proposal you're offering Chevy and the Jets the 4th AND 5th overall which are essentially useless to a team with possibly one of the deepest and most talented prospect pools in the entire league with no need for more picks but instead a need to win now while their currently crazy deep pool develops...

Ya the Jets do look some scary. I'm just having some fun trying to work situations out where we get Laine.  I'm still very sour over that lottery lol. I agree the Jets won't trade it. But u have to admit, 4th+5th+Hansen is a very enticing offer. Can't see them demanding what u proposed, maybe somewhere in between?  I like the Jets, they built a great team the right way, unlike them spoiled rotten Oilers.

They have literally no need though for any of that.  Hansen might be enticing with his cap hit and speed/position

 

But the rest...Monty can fill it in better than I can

I'm not going to say that those are really bad proposals, but...

 

I think your only chance of getting Laine out of Winnipeg is chloroform and a really big sack.

 

Unfortunately, (or maybe fortunately) when the police arrest you, they'll just send him back to Winnipeg

And why would Edmonton take a defenceman that CDC can't seem to get rid of fast enough plus two fringe NHL'ers and a possible mid round first next year for Tkachuk or PLD?

Because for whatever reason on CDC, quantity trumps quality and the rest of the league only exists to do favours for the Canucks.

Add that to once the Canucks get a new toy, his value magically skyrockets and you have the trading attitude of the average poster.

Out of curiosity, how is it on the Buffalo forum?   Is CDC really that crazy?  I haven't found it that crazy, it seems like one person says something and all of a sudden it's attributed to the whole forum. 

 

I agree the proposal to EDM is a quantity over quality, but I have yet see a majority of posters having the negative traits I keep reading about.

I can, but I don't see the point anymore.

Basically that's Edler plus change for the 4th overall pick.  Sbisa has reduced value at this point with his contract, Etem is a player good GMs pick up on waivers, and Edler COULD be worth a 1st rounder, but not the 4th overall.

People are delusional in the Buffalo forum as well in certain aspects of the team and the game.

 

CDC is that crazy but if you want outright stupidity, you need to go to the HFboards.

 

Out of all of the boards with Canucks exclusive coverage, CDC is the most entertaining as a whole.  This section of it is where true critical thinking goes out of the window and it's where I go when I have the tolerance to accept getting annoyed that day.

I just went to the SabreSpace, it's tough to take it seriously though, I don't have any vested interest.  I find CDC is a jolly place.

But how will anyone understand the intricate inner workings of the Winnipeg Jets now?

You, Warhippy, D-Money, stawns, and a few others have a good head on your shoulders.

 

The rest? They'll need to stop watching Adam Sandler films. It's ruining their brains.

Yep, That's why I come to CDC a lot.  I can talk about my 2nd favourite team without getting too irritated with people. 

 

When you know that the stupid person that you are talking to online (Sabres Forum) could be your next door neighbour, and you double that with the passion that you have for your hometown team, you have a recipe off going truly emo on the dumbest of the posters.
