Ek says that the Pens are possibly looking to shop Malkin for a first line D. What if we trade Kronwall and some picks to the Pens for Malkin and use the extra cap space to sign Markov or Schneider as well as Bert and Dom. Just a thought...

Rice 42 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 (edited) Malkin isn't going anywhere. Even if he were, it would take a Phaneuf or Bouwmeester to get him. Not Kronwall. Edited June 26, 2007 by ARice89 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Booster313 138 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 Malkin isn't going anywhere. Again... I said take it for what it's worth, I don't think he is either, but it's at least worth some thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KronwallCRUNCH 5 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 Malkin isn't going anywhere. Even if he were, it would take a Phaneuf or Bouwmeester to get him. Not Kronwall. Eventually somebody is going to have to go somewhere. They're not going to be able to afford Crosby, Malkin, Fleury, Stall, and others under the cap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taking it for what it is worth was surpassed when you read it. Then you added to the over-investment when you created a post about it. Remeber it's Eklund. It's Eklund. It's Eklund.

You could, but your suggestion would probably just make me want to punch more babies. May I make a suggestion? Next time you see crap like this, you don't need to look for the stupid-ass-never-gonna-happen forum, the rumor mill will suffice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kindlwillbegreat 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 (edited) theres no way malkin is going anywhere .........im guessing you read the eklund rumor about getting Regehr , it did get me thinking that maybe they drafted esposito , a former 1st overall pick to use as trade bait to get a defencemen, i saw on eklund he suggested trading whitney which is just ridiculous , they got problems on defense so there gonna trade there best young d man ?? They got enough talent on offense if they make a trade i wouldnt be surprised if it involved esposito , and the flames do have problems on offense, but i wouldnt be surprised if they used esposito to trade with anyone , not just the flames Edited June 26, 2007 by kindlwillbegreat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remeber it's Eklund. It's Eklund. It's Eklund. Very true...but since the boards weren't bustling with news, or great topics I figured I'd throw out a semi-decent discussion piece. theres no way malkin is going anywhere .........im guessing you read the eklund rumor about getting Regehr , it did get me thinking that maybe they drafted esposito , a former 1st overall pick to use as trade bait to get a defencemen, i saw on eklund he suggested trading whitney which is just ridiculous , they got problems on defense so there gonna trade there best young d man ??

Lou_Siffer 1 Report post Posted June 26, 2007 Theres nothing wrong with making a thread about someone possibly being moved, but i think the issue here is the Kronwall/picks suggestion! Thats not even in the same atmosphere of what it would actually take to acquire him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see Malkin going anywhere anytime soon. He and Crosby are the future of the Penguins frachise as long as they keep producing, which should continue to happen. I honestly think Eklund does a lot of the following below when he makes his predictions and rumors. He's the dude on the right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
