Inevitable follow-up from MJL about how they shouldn't be making any moves anyway.

Down Goes Brown ‏@DownGoesBrown
They say the night before the deadline is like Christmas Eve so I guess it makes sense to include a wandering Sheppard and a lump of Cole.

I wonder if Anaheim would take something like coburn and grosman for fowler and belesky. Read a few places belesky and fowler both available.

If Murray was high he would do that deal

Toronto still has plenty of time to do something stupid.

The silence is deafening as the cliche goes.
Hope no one is out on the roads tonight....
Ice is best at the rink and on drinks, otherwise, MEH

One of the defenders needs to go. Why do people think there's more value waiting until the draft to deal?

It's quiet, but remember, Hextall has plenty of time. None of the guys he's really looking to move are pending FA's. He doesn't have to make a deal to recoup something for anybody. He doesn't have to make a move right now.

It's tempting, because of the prices. But he needs to get exactly what he wants for whomever he's dealing. Otherwise, fold up the tent.

Might not be any value until next trade deadline. They're all signed. Hextall doesn't have to do anything.

Wow, the Rangers are busy today.

The Coburn + Vinny rumors are curious...a little scary. We need to get full value on Coburn, and I don't think Vinny helps that equation.

Ditching 3 years of Vinny is an asset, though

I'd expect that trade to net us a conditional 2nd

True, expiring contracts are like gold. All ours are 4th liner type.

This I agree with, but if Coburn can get Vinny out of here and still bring back good, young assets then I'm definitely considering it.

Might not be anything else, for the reasons you listed

They got two picks for a person who has not played this season. Hextall is aces in my book right now, though all is subject to change

If it comes down to retaining a chunk of salary or taking a bad contract back in return, I guess I'd rather they just bought out Wheels and moved on this offseason

More teams available looking to trade expands the market.

Wait, what if you trade Vinny and Coburn and retain a large amount of Coburn's salary to a team that can afford to buyout Vinny? Hexy, you genius.

If the return is reasonable, absolutely. They then can use the free agent market.
