Coldhardsteel Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 to van: jonathan drouin ryan callahan 2017 first round pick to tampa: chris tanev sven baertschi why: I'll keep it simple. I believe Drouin is an upgrade over sven, can contribute more on the PP, is 2 years younger, brings to the table an x-factor and create something out of nothing which is what we are starving for. Tampa needs another top 4 dman to keep pucks out of their net and chris tanev is among the best at that and is in the age range to help Tampa be competitive for awhile. I believe Sven belongs in the top 9 but would thrive playing with bonafide top liners so they are compensating for the loss in drouin, and essentially sending us a mid 1st rounder for tan, and we take on the bad cap hit. I believe this sets up a legitimate top 9 (hoping virtanen is a big physical energy guy who takes pucks to the net and we get a top five pick next year) for us for some years to come, Especially after the sedins are gone. 2018 top 9 drouin-np/nico-goldy loui-bo-boes granlund-sutter/dahlen-virtanen If these players can pan out, spend some years under some vets, and the d corps do the same I feel like these group could be dangerous in a few short years..2020 possibly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerrDrFunk Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Ah, hell. Why not just get Stamkos too while we're at it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldhardsteel Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 If we need to add a second round pick I think that would be fair value. We both get what we need. Tampa rids themselves of a bad contract while acquiring a young forward with similar stats to drouin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I see no point in destroying our prospect pool in an attempt to be good next year. It's about looking to the future. I'll pass on "now" players and wait more for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldhardsteel Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 wouldn't a 22 year old drouin and 1st round pick this year out focus on the future? Ryan Callahan would serve as cap relief for Tampa which would be affordable for us at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerrDrFunk Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I love the fact that you seem to think Tampa will give up Drouin and their 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldhardsteel Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 To rid themselves of 6 mil in cap space, gain a 20 goal scorer and a top 4 d man which they desperately need I do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48MPHSlapShot Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Drouin AND a mid 1st for Tanev and Bear Cheese, and the only catch is that we have to absorb Callahan as well? So I'm assuming part of your plan involves Benning sneaking into TB headquarters, bashing Stevie Y over the head with a hammer and giving him brain damage before coming to him with this deal, right?

canuckmen84 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 This trade proposal is beyond ridiculous, i doubt Tampa would even do Drouin for Tanev and Sven but who knows. How about Coldhardsteel traded to Tampa for future considerations.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lock Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I'd ask if you were Tampa would you do that trade, but people seem to think Tanev's worth the world lately, so I'll refrain from asking that. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
