VAN/NSH/COL 3 way trade (Proposal)


Recommended Posts

We all know how badly Nashville wants Duchene from Colorado but how high their ask price is and how Nashville is unwilling to part with their D to complete said trade. My proposal is that, as we are rebuilding anyways, we can take advantage and make a deal for our future and satisfy the current needs of all 3 teams. 

 

To Van: D Jack Dougherty (Nas), C Rocco Grimaldi (Col), Colorado's 4th

To Nas: C Matt Duchene

To Col: D Chris Tanev, C Vern Fiddler, Vancouver's 4th

 

Ultimately, Nashville gives Fiddler and Dougherty for Duchene.

Colorado gives Duchene, Grimaldi, 4th for Tanev, Fiddler and a 4th. Vancouver gives Tanev and a 4th for Dougherty, Grimaldi and a 4th. 

 

What do you think? I have tried to help balance things with the 4th round picks but that can be tweaked. Basically in the end, Vancouver stocks up for the future, Nashville fills James Neal's hole and Colorado both relieves themselves of the Duchene drama and gets a young defenceman in Tanev along with a veteran in Fiddler.

well I can say Nashville would have to give up way more and for Duch the Avs would be asking way more, trades like this do not happen for those reasons

 

separate trades could make this happen but the avs have no need for tanev they want younger players as we do

That won't happen, they want more then Tanev and 4th pick... Trade would of happened months ago if they just wanted a Tanev and 4th back..

Colorado are asking for lost for Duchene: example they would want Tanev,and  1st round pick from Van

The spike for Tanev will increase at the TDL as teams look to add defensive help for a playoff run.

I think we keep Tanev for the season till then unless a team needs help to push for a better playoff position which I doubt isn't going to happen till later on

Will it be easier to trade Tanev at the TDL with a MNTC in effect or right now when there's no clauses preventing JB from shipping him to the highest bidder?

well I think now would be the way to go, get something decent now or we could be stuck with tanev and get nothing as he gets hurt lots.

 

MNT means 8 to 12 teams and he could pick all out of the playoffs as none would want him then

Virtanen Tanev and Granlund and a 2nd rd pick maybe straight up?  but more than suggested for sure.   after this year C's are Horvat and Duchene next 5 years with Sedins retiring... Matt might accept one year of 3 Centres looking forward.  Granlund give them a defensive centre back..makes room for MD.. Col gets a top 4 d man, defensive Centre with upside and a first rounder reclamation project. with a high 2nd rd pick.... they might go for it but get the feeling they shooting for the moon hoping someone overpays
