doodle sack Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Clearly Edmonton is need of more defense. Larson is good but he can't carry the D on his own. Adding Tanev to that team would greatly improve their team with his calmness and stability. Not to mention EDM's coach loves Tanev he was raving about him in the World Championship. So I would try Tanev and Guance for the Nuge or Puljujarvi. The Nuge seems he needs to start fresh like hall, even though he is playing against top players his production has still dropped off an I mention Puljujarvi because he seems his not living up to expectations. Many people believed he was the better of the Big three and he seems to be a healthy scratch often. Seeing what it cost to get Larsson this seems fair. Also Edm saves money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't get Pulilarvi, but RNH is a definite maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM_ Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Trading within your division is always tough. I don't know that i want to see Tanev that much playing against us or helping EDM get to the cup. If we have to trade Tanev, I'd prefer we go all out for someone like Landeskog or a sniper from an Eastern team. Why do you think Tanev isn't enough? Not sure you need to throw in Gaunce.

doodle sack Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 I threw in Gaunce because I thought a team also wanted a forward as well since we would be taking a forward back. I also like Landeskog, do you think Tanev for Landeskog straight up will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Vandelay Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 If we are trading Tanev to Edmonton, I want everything. No way I can live in a world where Canucks contributed to Edmonton winning a cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 No thanks to RNH. Too expensive - and small. Aim higher - Draisaitl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billabong Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Rnh is not worth tanev straight up. If tanev is ever in a edm sweater, draisaitl better be in Canucks colours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 We really should target Duchene or Landeskog if we are giving up Tanev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP hasn't played 15 games yet but he's not meeting expectations - ok troll. And you want to acquire a slightly built perimeter player in RNH for a top pairing D in his prime , ok.

doodle sack Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 I'm not trolling but compared to Laine and MAtthews he is not doing so great. Also he has the better skilled centres around him to succeed but it seems that he can get anything going. If not RNH i think the suggestion of Draisaitl sounds sweet.

cripplereh Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Draisaitl as he is younger and the better C for us who are in need of a 1C as the twins should be second liners Only problem I see is then we would need Sutter with the twins as we would have to many C's but could work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laine and Matthews have top 6 roles on their teams. JP has been bouncing around the Oilers lineup and spending most of the time on the 3rd line. Also JP had minor knee surgery in the offseason so that cut off a lot of practice time during the summer. JP will be fine. He hasn't been as consistent as those two, but he has shown flashes of brilliance here and there. With McDavid and company riding shotgun, Oilers can let JP carve out the edges in his game and actually let him develop properly rather than throwing him into the lion's den like they did with all of their shiny prospects in the past.

Phil_314 Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 If they want Tanev, at least Draisaitl comes back. Nothing less IMO-- Trader Jim better gun for him to get a Johansen - Jones return for Tanev. He put up 51 points in 72 games and I think in his prime, he would be a solid #1 even if he's not a top-level center. Watching his play, he's already got size, hands, skill, a deft touch and the speed to be productive in an offensive role, and this team would be in position to give him that along with Horvat as the top 2 centers moving forward. He was successful with straight-line wingers like Hall, and I think he could gift goals to guys like Jake, Sven or Hansen on a platter with his dimes.

Nuxfanabroad Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 (curtsy to yer pardner) Tanev to Jersey(swing yer part'nr round'n'round) Hall to us (& a do-si-do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSnipeshow91 Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Or we can keep tanev and trade edler instead. Tanev is young enough to play with the new core once it's their time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.I.A.H.N Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Sorry.....no RNH......just don't like him........not a bad player, just doesn't remind me of a cornerstone player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strombone Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Tanev for Nugent-Hopkins is realistic. But if we did make that trade, we would be confirming that we are rebuilding. Edmonton would make the playoffs with Tanev considering he's one of the best corsi defenseman in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
