Nash has played RW at times. He only has 3 years left too, which would be perfect, but he's gonna cost too much
- sbroads24


At times is the key word. Remember when Vanek was throwing a fit cause he was playing on the other wing? Wingers don't like switching like that especially guys like Nash and Vanek. It's a bad idea not because I don't like Nash it's because he isn't a RWer.

Compared to the players we have for the right side, I'd take my chances on Nash moving over permanently to RW.

Or other options Hodgson, Girgensons (who they want at center) and gionta, who should be on line 3 next year.

Ennis is going to play RW. Then you target a true RW in a trade

I guess that speed from Saad is just a product of being on a good team...

Makes no sense to trade Kane. Moulson I would trade but it's not gonna happen. Only if Nash could play RW am I doing it and his natural position is LW

Murray is married to Kane and Moulson (he gave him a NTC). Plus it wouldn't look good at all if you're trying to trade away a guy you signed and gave a NTC to one year prior. Good luck getting FA's to come here after that.

- Stripes77


If you can make a move for Nash and trade Kane while not killing your team, why wouldn't you do that. I don't think Murray is married to anyone, Kane may not even be here that long. He could be gone in 3 years just like Nash would.

The Hawks are getting the bounces now too, wow.

The biggest issue with Nash is how much the Rangers are going to want for him as he's coming off a big time year.

His performance in game 7 is hardly going to diminish what NY will want in return despite my belief that they'd be happy to have his contract off their cap.

A first line of Kane Eichel Nash is certainly very intriguing.

Decent lineup, i just don't think williams is a real possibility right now, we're a little to far away for him to be interested.

With what you just gave up for Kane there is no way you can move him without him playing a game. How do you not thin Kane won't be here for that long? Murray targeted him for a reason not to just move him again.

You're better off keeping Reinhart in Buffalo IMO

Frolik's a good stop gap if Reinhart's not ready.

This is why the NHL is such a joke and they really need to address their rules. Either all goals off your feet are good or none off your feet are allowed. I hate the whole distinct kicking crap and the intent is exactly the same.

Kane has three years left, I have no idea if he is here after that or not. I'm not saying its even remotely possible to get Nash and move Kane but if you can do it, you do it IMO.

2nd overall pick. He needs to play IMO.

Exactly. The way I see Reinhart is it's best he starts in Rochester. He'll be the first call up and ya gotta figure guys like Gionta, Girgs and Foligno will miss time due to various injuries.

He'll get his ice time in rochester as well. If he's not ready there's no sense keeping him up to play him every other game on the 4th line.

No reason to rush him. I think for his development it would be good to start him in the A. Let him get comfortable and he can be the main guy down there, for at least a bit of time. But if he has a good camp it would be Bylsma's call to keep him. He might.
