Yes I agree but what do we lose to get that top 6 forward? Can we afford to lose what ever we are putting in trade?

Higgins(to whoever his limtied NTC allows), 2nd and Tanev/Jensen(one of them). Call up Corrado if Tanev gets dealt(make the deal 40+ games in so Corrado gets good AHL time). Has to be for a non-rental though or otherwise I'd rather keep the pick and young player.

Will the team be awake? We could get lit up if they're slow to start.

In theory, if you acquired a legit top 6 forward and once you add in a healthy Burrows, it would bump down everyone to where they should be.
- Nucker101

In theory, or until someone else gets hurt. But I agree a playmaker on the 2nd line should remain our focus.

Seahawks winning as well

I picked us to win these past 2 games but my optimism ended there. I think we'll lose to PIT and possible CLS as well. Fingers crossed I'm wrong.

Its amazing how much energy a guy can have when he is having fun. Ask Vantal

Tanev is serious depth so is Higgins. Both would be fit on all 29 teams. One of them maybe but both.. I don't know it would have to be a good top 6.

Stanton's first career goal! Grab dat puck!

Very nice pickup, gotta give MG and his scout(s) props this year for bringing in good depth players.
- Nucker101

We all roast Gillis (myself included) but so far Santorelli Stanton and Richardson have been cheap decent finds.

I think they'll be fine. I think it would be different if it was the 1st game of a eastern trip

Gotta give to get, especially since I would want a player that's signed through next year. Giving up good assets for rental players is something that I'm not a fan of unless you have a legit contending team.

Yeah, I think Pit could blow us out unless they play them hard and aggressively for 60 minutes.

Tanev and a 3rd for Marcus Johannson

Bure's Triple Deke ‏@BuresTripleDeke
And Lu moves into sole possession of 15th all-time with his 63rd career shutout. Passes Broda, 3 more to Roy.

I agree but we truly won't know if we are a contender until January. Let it ride for a while unless a deal that is to good to be true comes up. We will see more of what is available in a month and a half.

Leafs folded like a cheap tent. Oilers are a joke

Holy sh!t that'll never happen. That kid is starting to really come into his own. Pretty much a PPG player going back the last 15 or so competitive games.

See what this team is like with Edler and Burrows back.

Yeah, I think Pit could blow us out unless they play them hard and aggressively for 60 minutes.

There is the fluery factor. Could win 7-5

Perhaps I'm underating him but I think your getting carried away.

Yeah but his contract sucks so nobody will take him in a trade. He sucks anyways. We really need a sarcasm emoticon.
