dreadthered 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2006 To Detriot David Vyborny Micheal Rupp To Columbus Robert Lang Brett Lebda 3rd Rounder He's a deal that Ive been thinking of. I know Vyborny isnt a big guy at 5'10 but he's a presence on the wing and is very fast and can set up Shanny very nicely. Michael Rupp is huge and a big hitter. We need a player like this 6'5 230 pounds isnt easy to move around. He can throw the body around and if he needs to can throw some fists. We are losing Lang and Lebda and a first. I dont think we need Lebda even though he looks like he can be a great Offensive Defenceman. But we have Kronwall and Quincey who will most likely become 4-7 defencemen. Lang as we all know can be traded and not hurt us that much. He's a salary dump for us but Lang will give Columbus a great Center behind or infront of Fedorov and help them next year to get a playoff spot. It doesnt matter much about the 3rd I mean we have a first rounder still if we are in the first round and have nothing to draft we can draft lower and get more picks to fill small holes. Thoughts...

Heaton 1 Report post Posted February 5, 2006 I'm not going to like any big names from our team going to Columbus, trading star players inside your own divison is just a bad idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heaton 1 Report post Posted February 5, 2006 (edited) True but how much damage can they do to us? Turn arounds are quick, look at Carolina, with a healthy Nash, Zherdev and Fedorov they could give us a lot of trouble next year.

ToddDaGod 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2006 I don't think Columbus is going to add any more payroll, even if Lang isn't that expensive. Rupp has been passed around like an indian peace pipe, which raises questions, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cap20066 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2006 Vyborny is 30, he looks even smaller than 5'10, so far only has 38 points and 15 goals (the "horrible and lazy" Lang has 40 and 15 in fewer games). Lebda just turned 24, is playing his first year of NHL hockey, and has 9 points in somewhat limited action. Vyborny is an above average *soft* finesse player. Lebda at this stage of his career is an average puck moving, and strong skating defenseman... who is more than six years younger than Vyborny and has only just begun his career. Not to mention Lebda has a smaller contract. So which part were you laughing your ass off at? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fatcat6 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2006 I really don't see any way in hell why Columbus would trade for Lang. I just don't see it, and they won't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
