Right, but I take "hockey trade" to mean a return of a roster player. Could still move some of the non-UFA's for AHL prospects.
- Slump Buster

I think Stewart is the only one that can get us a decent prospect
I think murray would rather have picks (even if they're late ones) in the hopes he could hit a home run as opposed to mediocre prospects

Which ain't happening
- PassionBucket16

(shrug) I could see him waiving it to the right team. Kings, Rangers, maybe a handful of others. Unlikely but not nearly as unlikely as some of the other things being kicked around (Hodgson trade, P Kane trade, etc).

Cole is a bum, we should stop thinking he's a savior.
- SABRES 89

why not call him what he is, which is not a bum nor a savior. Just a decent hockey player.

Not a chance, and it wouldn't shock me to see Stewart back next year if they move him.

Cause IMO he's a bum.

I don't. He always talks how he would prefer players 'further along in their development" . That's not more picks.

Do you have a mouse in your pocket?

They way people talk about him you would think he is.

It would shock me since they tried to re-sign him and they weren't close.

Anyone see last night's Habs, Leafs game ? they were throwing Leaf jersey's on the ice in Montreal

Keep all of our crappy UFA defenseman because if we bring up Pysyk and McCabe we won't finish dead last.

They're already better than Weber, Strachan, Meszaros, and Benoit.
- PassionBucket16

Weber & Strachan have been decent for us this season
Benoit has been too since paired with Bogosian and Meszaros keeps finding the back of the net lately!

It would shock me since they tried to re-sign him and they weren't close.
- Homer

Any idea what the numbers were? I think the only way he comes back is if it is similar to what happened with Moulson last summer (grass wasn't as green as he thought it would be).

Cause IMO he's a bum.
- SABRES 89

Ill take vets who still through their body around and can score 20 goals any day. That's not a bum.

Nobody that trades for him will give him....say 4 mill a year. I didn't say he would be back, just it wouldn't shock me. to give him more then 4 a year is a joke.

That's fine

- Slump Buster

I don't know the numbers, just told they weren't close. That could mean term, dollars, both...not sure.

no 1st or 2nd rd picks for the Rangers for the next 3 years.

Mr Sather. Paging Mr Sather.

Hey,you stole my idea,lol. I said that earlier today,I like it
- Buffalo39

I understand Sharp will be moved. But if I am Kane, how do you go back in that locker room,go around town ,that everyone knows sharp slept with your girlfriend. I am just saying,make a big trade offer to chicago. Stewart,zadorov,baptiste,st louis first and our 2016 first. They are going to havealot of cap trouble
- Buffalo39

Found it. Pretty close. Stewart can be a throw in, sure and I see Bailey playing for us before Baptiste.

Any return that doesn't start with our #1 is a non-starter. I think you'd get a dial tone before you got that far anyway.

No way, then.

That pick is off the table

That's terrible if you ask me.

In between periods of leaf game Elliotte Friedman wondered if Montreal would go after Stewart and Mitchell. Didn't say it was a rumor but was just speculating himself.

they laugh
- Homer

Do they? CHI needs to address their cap issue, needs to build up depth, their top D pairing are both (if I remember correctly) 30+ now, Hossa is signed for an eternity and 2 extra firsts helps them extend their window, plus they get a legit 2nd line C (I'm sorry but Vermette ain't no 2nd line C) and a big, young Defenseman.

:shrugs:

By the way...........where the hell you been. I had to defend you 3 times after some 'new guys" claimed you didn't know s$$t. This happened about a month ago.

Thing is MTL never overspends on trades anymore they'll look for another Vanek deal.

No way, then.

- grand-magus

Right, exactly. If you were Chicago would you trade him? Absolutely not. Lots of other ways to alleviate their cap issues.
