Not saying he would but I'd sure as hell try for it anyway. Edmonton has a nice young core that isn't far away that they just might be willing to overpay.

I edited to include that you have to be concerned not to insult a potential trading partner. If they believe you to have serious interest, maybe something could get done. Make ridiculous first offers and you may lose them entirely.

I think Gagner is a large step down from what Shcenn and Coots will be

Schenn will never develop into a second line center for a playoff team, he could play wing though. Don't like his vison, plays with his head down.

Very true, possibly but they have to know it will be tried and words like "we are flexible on this offer"

Check local listings, it might vary for you from what it is for me.

I for one would love to see Mez, Grossaman and Coburn dealt this weekend....nothing against those guys as players but we need to get the cap number down on our d corp....were probably not going to contend next year so ship em all out and lets figure it out with youngsters

Well,doing all that would give the Flyers good odds at the first overall pick in the 2014 Draft.

craig mctavish basically said the other day that the seven is in play to improve his team. i can see a 3rd rounder going with coburn or something along those lines
- phatpat44


coburn and cousins for #7?

I'm really hoping if these Oilers rumors come to fruition and we somehow end up with the 7th overall pick, that the Nurse talk is all just a smokescreen. One can hope.

Craziness in full swing

Bruins are really active right now. Tyler Seguin is one of the players that could be traded. Lightning is one of many teams in the mix.
