Pre-Olympic Trade Deadline Talk

[superstarsingh 23]

Maybe the Sharks would take him back?

[stevkrause 1,247]

I wouldn't be shocked if Cheechoo hit re-entry waivers on March 1st or 2nd.

or still got traded March 1st or 2nd... if not, he'll be bought out in the off season and end up somewhere for around 1 mil next year

Do does this mean were not trading Lebda??? For a minute there i thought X-mas had come real early.....

he could still very well be moved, this is just one move...

I am so sick of seeing him out there... I may not even like the next guy to wear 22, just because of the bad memories...

[VM1138 1,921]

You know, I always feel bad for players who take on massive contracts and then end up sucking, so they end up not playing for anyone at all.

[Shaman 713]

first, trade Lebda and Meech to Washington for Ovechkin and Backstrom, then trade Howard to Vancouver for Luongo, then bring Gerard Gallant out of retirement and trade him to Calgary for Jerome Iginla... trade Stuart and Rafalski's no trade clauses (not the players themselves, but actually trade their no trade clauses for a bag of pucks - this frees the player up to then be traded), then trade Rafalski for Atlanta's next 12 first round picks and Stuart to Tampa Bay for Vinny Lecavalier and Marty St. Louis... then trade Filpulla for Boogard (who needs a soft euro that's defensively responsible and capable of 80 pt seasons??!!? - we need toughness!) promote McCollum, Kindl, Brendan Smith and a 14 year old prospect from BC - because he won a ton of fights in Bantam AAA and we really need that grit on the back end... force Holmstrom, Draper, Lilja, Maltby and Osgood to all retire... finally, get everyone to restructure their contracts (even though the CBA doesn't allow contract restructuring - they'll make an exception!) for league minimum

Zetterberg-Datsyuk-Ovechkin

Franzen-Backstrom-Iginla

Cleary-Lecavalier-St.Louis

Abdelkader-Helm-Boogard

Lidstrom-Ericsson

Kronwall-Kindl

Smith-14 year old prospect

Luongo

McCollum

what an infusion of vets and prospects!

:blink:

COME ON PEOPLE - LOGIC!

BEST......POST....EVER....

Yeah it must suck to get paid MILLIONS and not even have to actually earn them. haha. I get what you are saying though.

If one of those guys turn out to be the LTIR guy ... I quit this season.

[stevkrause 1,247]

everyone go into this thread right now - http://www.letsgowings.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=63172

Maybe Kronwall isn't the one to be LTIR'd

You sir, are on a roll today.

[j.hoop 64]

eklund has Horton to kings (rumor)

hey, it's a Friday and I'm ready to start the weekend and get out of the office, haha

:beerbuddy:

[GSBrooks13 204]

Am I the only one thinking none of this adds up so far?.. I mean if Datsyuk, Kronwall or Flip were going on LTIR then what was the purpose of waiving May?..

[Shaman 713]

Ok, heres my idea

To Florida: Flip and a 4th

To Detroit: Olesz and a 2nd

[ShanahanMan 473]

i thought he couldn't be moved?

He can't. They would have to remove him from IR.

eklund or Horoton? e5

[superstarsingh 23]

What is up with all of these proposals involving Flip. It would be stupid for the Wings to get rid of him!

Would depend on the return, although what that would be I can't begin to speculate.

[stevkrause 1,247]

People don't know what they got - I did the research the other day - for guys in his salary bracket, very few have a better point per game, or +/-, are as defensively responsible, etc... and almost ALL of them have already peaked... he hasn't...

to trade Flip would be the trade that we all lement in 3 years...
