Official 2014 NHL Trade Deadline Thread

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

I'd take Legwand. Depending on the price.

[AtomicPunk 296]

Goc is one player that's never really excited me one way or the other. I don't get the appeal. Maybe that's just me.

Ruutu from CAR to NJD.

[e_prime 1,936]

So, that means Devils, Caps, and Ottawa all have made a move... all teams we'll be battling for a playoff spot. Let's go Kenny!

[wings87 1,290]

Gaborik would have been nice for that price

Yeah, but no faith he can stay healthy. We need guys that can stay in the lineup.

[MabusIncarnate 5,344]

Isn't Legwand the leading scorer on Nashville? Nah we couldn't use a guy like that at all.

[Z and D for the C 712]

Gaborik would have been nice for that price

Given our luck with injuries and his luck with injuries, he'd probably get hit by a runaway bus before he stepped foot into the Joe.

[Nevermind 363]

Bob McKenzie says Detroit, Pittsburgh, Anaheim and Florida have interest in Legwand. After getting Goc, Pittsburgh sounds like they're out.

Legwand is a good defensive center and has 40 points so far this season. He'd certainly help with the injuries this season...but with Weiss on the team, I don't see a long-term future for him here.

[AtomicPunk 296]

Kenny, get Matt Moulson. He can be had for basically nothing and is a good player on the up, not an old player on the down. Just do it. It's OK.

Prediction:

Abdelkader, AA, Ouellet and 2nd for : Kesler

Almquist, Frk, Kindl and 1st for : Erhorf

[e_prime 1,936]

Prediction:

Abdelkader, AA, Ouellet and 2nd for : Kesler

Almquist, Frk, Kindl and 1st for : Erhorf

I'll take it.

Wait? Did you just trade Almquist to two different teams?

Damn it! I forget we have two AA's

Legwand is on the last year of his contract right? So he'd be a rental?

[Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029]

Who gets bumped out of New Jersey's lineup with Ruutu coming in?

Legwand would be a rental. At least he'd keep Emmerton out of the lineup.

Almquist, Frk, Kindl and 1st for : Erhorf

Why the frack would you trade Almquist? Otherwise, I like it.

[SDavis35 140]

Why would Helm and Datsyuk being out throw a wrench in the plans? Unless Holland was planning on trading one of them, which is retarded. If anything their injuries make it MORE important we make a move. Maybe an additional move being needed is throwing a wrench into plans?

I just hope he doesn't use injuries as an excuse to NOT do anything.

EDIT: Add me to the bunch who thinks a move might happen. Last year Holland had already admitted we weren't going to do anything at this time on deadline day. If he's still "hoping" to make a move with an hour and a half left, that means we're still in on someone.

If he was planning to trade one of our young centremen; the injuries would make it less desirable to do so. Let's say he was shopping Andersson, or Sheahan. He now wouldn't want to because he would see Emmerton as the replacement, which probably is worse than what we have with Andersson and Sheahan.

Just a theory though.

[Mckinley25 677]

I think the issue Holland is having is every team is asking for Mantha.

[rrasco 1,312]

I think the issue Holland is having is every team is asking for Mantha.

Which is dumb unless we are getting a big return. Other GMs should actually known that.

[wings87 1,290]

The selfie is lame.

[Dominator2005 558]

Kenny is looking to trade for TSN Jeniffer Hedger

[JasonNewEra 84]

Kesler only willing to waive NTC for PITT PHI or NY... Ass.

[ShanahanMan 473]

I think Abs should be our biggest trade bait.

[Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029]

Thank god Kesler isn't coming here.

[DickieDunn 2,571]

Why the frack would you trade Almquist? Otherwise, I like it.

Because there's no future for him here? Or did I miss the sarcasm font?

[evilmrt 636]

Good, don't want that OSU a-hole.
