Almquist 2 nhl games ... 1 goal .... So far so good If anything I think he would really help our 2nd ppl unit

Montreal won't trade Subban . There would be a riot if that happened

Agreed ...all this helm trade talk is crazy I can see him here for along time unless he gets crazy with salary demands I think depending on the return athanasiou can be a really nice trade bait with his 45 goals and we can afford to lose him with pulkkinen jarnkrok jurco sheahan mantha in our depth chart Paterson could also have value .... Like holland said it would have to be a hockey trade were not good enough to risk these guys for ufa's especially with hank and pavelski being a ?

I wouldn't want fil , I think if he was here it be the same old bs with him .... We'll never know but I just think he was destined to forever be an under achiever here for whatever reason .... Just sucks we got weiss but at least we got to see loads of the kids here (nyquist Tatar sheahan jurco) play great ... Just imagine them I. 2-3yrs That's why I always said every year we should be bringing up a kid or 2 to filter them In a few at a time and let them learn instead of bringing up a bunch at a time .... Imagine how good nyquist and Tatar would be now if they had a full season already ? ..... Boy went off topic there abit lol Does anyone know if Weiss has a full no trade?

God no

Just curious what do you guys think we could fetch for Quincey? 2nd rounder if were lucky? And any chance we would be able to find a taker for kindl?? I think it would be tough cause he's still got 3 more years left although his cap number isn't brutal but his stats aren't really anything great

I'd pass on spezza ... He has some offensive skills ....but I just don't think he's a winner , don't think he'd help a team win a cup

Ya I'm sure glendening will eventually score his first goal 200 games from now ... Way better off having sheahan and helm center the bottom 2 lines .... Trading helm is just ludicrous ,thank god holland would never do it Love Tatar but out of the sheahan nyquist jurco he's the one id trade If canucks would consider adding weiss under the premise he can rebound there , seeing as he's locked up for 4 more yrs and is a 2nd line center "Maybe" Weiss + Tatar for kesler ? Trade a 3rd and a Ferraro ? For mark Stuart? I know a lot of you want ehroff but that 7yrs is way too much ..... I know pierre McGuire is *** for Crosby but he even said today how he found that 7yr term a problem and it won't be as easy to get rid of him

Well all depends what happens on trade deadline ... If we don't make the playoffs lets say and get 12th overall and some team wants it for something like 24 and 33 I'd consider it I trust Kenny and our scouts .... I just wish we could get rid of all these extra wastes of players for any picks .... For once Kenny is forced to get rid of guys and we can't even get picks , wouldn't care if we'd got 3 7th rounders for tootoo eaves Etc... I'd just give them all to Andersson tell him to have fun

Rather have Ekman LarssonSorry about the double post

Rather have Ekman Larsson

Just because dekeyser was a free first round pick doesn't mean we need to just give away our pick now .... There's still a chance we don't get In the playoffs so it would be High pick for us .... If we trade it way it should be for non rental player

Some team will give up a 1st round pick for vanek though .... Teams always do .... Minnesota gave up a ton last year for pominville for instance ..... And speaking of Minnesota the media's been saying for months vanek is gonna sign with them cause he has a home there and is good friends with pominville so it be a waste for us

Ya then we get destroyed In the finals by the west and kesler walks In 2 yrs mule pulls a pronger and retires due to cunsussion but don't worry we still got our prospects .... Wait We gave up jarnkrok ouellet Tatar sheahan and a 1st ? ... But he'll it was worth it to just make the finals Like you said before I got no problem doing a big trade but if we're giving up blue chip prospects unless it's for a Tavares type player or pietrangelo type on d ... F*ck it My personal opinion .... Athanasiou is the only top 10 I'd trade on redwingscentral rankings (and he could have value due to his 45 goals ) ..... Almquist,Patterson and Tatar(depending the return) .... Tatar only cause out of sheahan jurco nyquist who's with the team now he's the guy I'd move if I had to make a deal happen Those are the 4 main young/prospect players that I'd say have the best value id consider in a trade

Thank god your not the gm .... Kesler can walk in 2yrs .... I'd only get rid of all those prospects if we got a Tavares .... And as much as I wanna make the playoffs nothing is assured , stupid habs got lucky somehow and got 5 out of 6 pts , wish Beene picking up pts , Columbus Thx to bettman we been sitting and waiting till Tuesday .... Next few games are big Don't wanna risk losing our first pick if we miss the playoffs , a few good players in the top 5

If you think if we traded all that for kesler and edler we'd have a Way better chance to win the cup then many other teams i don't know what to tell you My personal opinion is no matter what a western team is winning the cup this year ... Time will tell And we waited years to finally have a deep prospect pool with massive upside , why get rid of 3-4 of them for guys About to turn 30? .... We already got mule zetterberg and datsyuk mid 30s , you wanna be the next flames and oilers ? Not saying I wouldn't be up to getting one depending on the player but I'm not willing to throw a massive blow to our future .... What happens if kesler leaves In 2yrs? Or god help us zetterberg or mule gets hurt again in 2yrs , then we'd really be f*cked Trust me I wish we could make a big splash at the deadline , it makes it more fun when your teams involved,but sometimes the best thing to do is do nothing (or something small ) Biggest mistakes gm make is on trade deadline

Ya and they'd only have to give up something like Tatar jarnkrok ouellet mantha and a 1st to get those 2 guys .... But hey it's worth it

We also got a lot of good d prospects coming up soon (ouellet,sproul,backman,marchenko,almquist etc) and kronwall Ericsson dekeyser are locks to stay longterm ... Got kindl lashoff smith up now (I'm sure a few will be dealt) .... Just don't know if adding someone with a 7yr deal is a wise move Adding a mark Stuart at the deadline might be better longterm and wouldn't cost as much

Ya I don't get why helm's name is being thrown around all of a sudden ... He's going nowhere at his best when he's healthy I'd say he's one of best 3rd line centers .... Tremendous speed great defensively can kill penalties , I'd say he's a type of player you need in the playoffs to win the cupI'd say it's a safe bet holland and Babcock love him and unless he's demanding a 8 yr deal for 5 per type deal next contract I can see him here for many years to come

He was frustrated yzerman didn't pick him as well the prior Olympics .... I do believe he got pissed being rejected this time again and I do think yzerman picked him now cause he was being a baby about Been hearing a lot on tsn and radio shows that's why he demanded a trade .... Fact is We'll probably never know for sure but that's just my personal opinion that I do believe he wanted out cause he wasn't picked again

What do you guys think would be the cost to get kulikov out of Florida??

Could be ... Think despres is younger though .... Would suck to give up a 3rd round pick as well as the first though Not saying he is or he isn't but to me out of the forwards in the top 10 on redwingscentral he's the one id trade and pulkkinen is on a tear now as well ..... As impressive as those 45 goals are he's doing it in his last year in the ohl

Athanasiou got a hat trick tonight .... 2nd most goals with 45 in the ohl and 6th scoring .... Could be a good time to use him in a deal rather than touching any of jarnkrok mantha jurco pulkkinen nyquist sheahan .....depending on the return

Hearing a 1st 3rd depres and sutter .... They can have him ... Seems every year pens keep trading there future away , they won't have much soon at this rateStill think cup winner will be a western team .... Blues and hawks if I had to bet would be my picks at this point

I just hope holland doesn't feel like he has to resign him cause he basically promised cleary he'd resign him after the cap went back up .... Feel bad for cleary cause he was loyal and turned down more money but it's time to go
