Anson Carter to wings- E4

[timsummers 0]

Hey does anyone know where to find eklund's "e scale" or whatever, E4 is supposed to be pretty substantial isnt it? maybe that he heard this carter thing from a few different sources?

[spydrwebb 0]

this is a completely worthless thread.

[Fingercots 6]

what about that trade involving gagne, ribeiro, souray, etc have to do with the wings? what are the wings giving up?

am i missing something?

[SwedeLundin77 460]

We are giving up Langfeld and a pick, so either this is completely bulls***, or there are some names missing from this. I'm going to go ahead and vote on bulls***.

[ColdWarrior 0]

Uh... so the Wings give up Langfeld???

I guess we need to go sign him first?

Or perhaps the source of this rumor is full of it, and actually meant Lang???

[BeeRYCE 2]

Yeah, the Wings really give up nothing and get something in this deal. Would be more realistic if it was in fact Lang.

[Guest EZBAKETHAGANGSTA]

"Now most people would know that this rumour has almost zero chance of happening and the person's source was probably "his imagination" since not much has been going on the last few weeks in the NHL."

Wheres paul wood's fan club now?

So the wings give up nothing

[eva unit zero 271]

Yeah, the Wings really give up nothing and get something in this deal. Would be more realistic if it was in fact Lang.

Seems more likely that A) Lang is the player and B) it would look something like this with the players involved:

To Habs: Robert Lang, R.J Umberger, Nikos Dimitrakos

To Flyers: Sheldon Souray, Mike Ribiero, and Montreal's 2nd round pick in 2008

To Wings: Simon Gagne

Perhaps a slight change in players involved:

To Habs: Robert Lang, R.J Umberger OR Nikos Dimitrakos

To Flyers: Sheldon Souray, Mike Ribiero, Jason Williams, and Montreal's 2nd round pick in 2008

To Wings: Simon Gagne

That makes more sense as far as player return--Flyers are gaining a defenseman and instead of losing two wingers for none, they lose one or two for one in return, as well as a solid young center. Montreal gets a young forward in return for one, as well as swapping a second-pairing defenseman for a center who they covet for his chemistry with Kovalev.

This also makes much more sense for the Wings--why would we trade our third best center to get another guy for that spot (Ribiero) as well as ANOTHER prospect center, and a mediocre winger? More than likely if we are trading Lang, we are getting a scoring line winger back.

[SwedeLundin77 460]

Too bad it'll never happen, even if it does make more sense. We'll sign Carter before that happens, unfortunately.

I LIKE YOUR PROPSALS, THOUGH THE SECOND ONE SEEMS MORE LIKELY. BECAUSE I BELIEVE WE WOULD NEED TO GIVE UP MORE THEN JUST LANG FOR GAGNE...

Given the ongoing concern about Koivu

Montreal's supposed interest in Lang at least seems somewhat logical. Whether he and Williams are enough to land Gagne is another question entirely. Well, I guess there's nothing wrong with hoping!

Thr idea behind my post, as stated right at the beginning, was that it was a more realistic proposal.

[wingslogo19 281]
