I honestly think Murray's going to do something stupid and Arizona needs a franchise player or their franchises is cooked and moved so you have two teams that are (frank)ing desperate
- gerbe75pts

What's something stupid that he's done so far? I'll wait.

id assume at the very least, hed consider it.

but just the term "gut" implies how much said gm is giving up.

im nit saying one way or another if its worth it, but when uve got a player like jack eichel to fall back on and for free, u need to be smart with your assets
- Ihateallofu

I would rather keep Jack oh but are GM is insane with. Connor McDavid

We do need the forwards though. We lack a true 2nd line winger. Who knows if Moulson will return to form again. Hodgson is a defensive nightmare and that's when he's playing well. Grigs is a mystery like I've said in past. I'm not comfortable living in the mysterious. This team needs some overhaul if they aren't going to be last again.. Cutting dead wait of Benoit Mezaros and maybe Kaleta will help but having Gionta or Hodgson in the top 2 lines does you no good. We need to bring in a new winger. An exciting guy with NHL experience.
- bluengold12

A 10th overall and a 14th overall should definitely be good enough for the 2nd line. Also Grigs is in no way a mystery and that was proven since the Nashville game.
2nd line winger problem solved. D intact.

Gahhhhhh!

.....and this, from page 6, is the sound of heartbreak. Sorry fellas, luck o' the draw. I must admit, your GM worked really hard to secure the pick this year.

He's done nothing stupid but this could be it..


You think gutting our team is smart just stick with Jack and don't lose assets

People wanted Murray's head for trading Myers and he's been invisible for the Jets in the post season. But ya know, "assets" and all.

Thanks, buddy. I don't think Murray is quite done yet, though. Even the players said, "anything can happen on Draft Day".

So let's trade our defensive prospects and our elite forward prospects and first round picks just move up one spot to pick Connor McDavid

Edmonton has a chance to build a Stanley Cup contender by trading down twice let's see if they can do it
- gerbe75pts

Ummm....we now have the flexibility to make trades...there are other ways to balance our line up.

That's what I was saying I said you can gut two teams and make a Stanley Cup contender in one move

As it stands:

Kane // Eichel // Ennis?
Moulson // Reinhart // Hodgson?
Larsson // Girgensons // Gionta?
Deslauriers // McCormick // Foligno

Bogosian // Georges
Ristolainen // Zadorov
Pysyk // Weber

Thing 1 // Thing 2

The only thing I like Eichel over McDavid is that Eichel is a right hand shot.

ROR?

- gerbe75pts

You make it sound like we would give our whole roster to move up 1 spot. The most Murray would move is 2 roster players. Relax.

He plays left wing, though?

It be our first 2015 , 2016 what players

Yeah but I think we will look at other ways. I really think in order to trade McDavid it would have to be a trade only a crazy would make. Like OEL, Hanzal and the 3rd, for example. Too crazy? Oh well, we keep the pick.

I couldn't lie that's like not crazy if I was you I would ask for more like OEL , first Max , hanzal

Murray wouldn't trade our 2016 pick either. We host that draft year. The most he trades to move up from #2 to #1 is the #2 pick and 2 roster players.

Kane - Eichel - Ennis
Grigs - Reinhart - Hodgson
Moulson - Girgs - Larsson/Gionta
Foligno/Deslauries - Foligno/Shaller - Larsson/Gionta

Bogo/Georges
Risto/Zads

That 2nd line I think both players will be gone draft day

the Oilers are just going to say (frank) off then I don't think he gives a poop about the draft in Buffalo if he gets. Connor McDavid

Not happy. huge bad day.
In the history of hockey who is the best American player.
If Eichel is that good.
McDavids comparables are off the charts better
- hafgod

Mike Modano

Went to 3 cup finals

Won 1 cup.

If Eichel does that......

Well.....

I'll hang up and listen.



p.s. Brett Hull. I'll take it if Eichel does what he did too.

Weber SHOULD NOT make this team next season, if he does our defensive prospects are not worth much.

If that's the case, we get returns. Especially if it means balancing out our roster.
