I've finally gotten the time to get back in here... the Hall trade, hollllly cow!

Far as the rumors go now, please, we cannot lose Damon.

Heard Shattenkirk won't sign in EDM so it nixed a trade from happening.

Honestly I wouldn't mind Eriksson or maybe even Brouwer. The roster has gotten significantly younger. It's not a burden to have one or two older guys provided they can still produce. I wouldn't give them a ridiculous term, but if Eriksson clicks he could put at least 25 I'd expect even in NJ. If his 5v5 looks good then we could definitely use him.

I love Backes, not sure how much he's got left though given his style of play.

Agreed 100%. Right now we have 3 defensemen capable of playing at the NHL level. Greene, Severson and Moore.

Even if Ray brings both Schlemko and Merrill back they need to add.

- Mr.Bobby


I'm looking even further than that. Obviously we need to add someone short term to cover for Larsson, but I don't see a long term solution in our system either. Wouldn't mind going after Okposo or Eriksson and see what Camm could bring back in a trade.

Fowler is available. Reunite him with Hall and Henrique from the Windsor days? Although after what we just got for Larsson I think the asking price on a top 4 RHD is through the roof.

My prediction for tomorrow, one of Schultz, Wiz or Lovejoy will be a Devil before 5 PM.

Okposo seems to the got rumor right now for us. If we could get Schultz I'd be very pleased, though. I can't see us making another trade unless it's Cam going. I'm not all too sure what he would command in a return.

Justin, and I didn't say I wanted him, just a hunch. I'd stay away from Lovejoy too.

Shattenkirk, Demers, Fowler, Russell, Wiz is my wish list.

is Fowler even a top pair guy? He can play offense, but how sound is he defensively?

I don't want to sell the farm for Fowler, which is why I have Demers in front of him.

I agree, I can see Wiz coming here on a short deal.....he can get top-4 minutes here....not sure if that's good for us though

Shattenkirk would be awesome but I just can't see how we could get him??? Oh and EK linked us to him and Fowler so take both off your list.

Russel is Dan Girardi so i would probably shy away from him.

no way. I'll pass on Vanek. hard pass, harder than Okposo. Get Stemp for half the price, or even Eriksson.

but we need Demers. If we can't get Shattenkirk (and re-sign him), or Fowler (also a UFA after 2017), the RHD Demers is top priority. I just wish he was a legit top pair guy. but he's better than what we have.
