Uh oh. I'm not so sure this falls within the coc.

Meh.

Look at his posts. Specifically the one in the oil thread where he is threatening HB 77 for ratting on him guy is a moron.

Boston makes sense but I think the Jets will demand a 1st Rd pick back.

Krug, Carlo 2017 1st Rd for Trouba and a 2nd Rd

Bruins have made I think 5 picks in last 2 first rounds they may be willing to move the pick. The draft itself thought to be mediocre at this point.

You got whacked with the ban hammer because you're a moron.

Says the well known troll. Putting the cart before the horse here huh...

I can't believe I'm gonna use these words but, that's totally retarded.
You can't be serious, are you? Maybe we can toss in Bergy for Stafford as well.
- shoreorrpark

We don't need Bergeron but if you want sure, we will throw in Stafford for him.

There is no way Carolina trades trouba for hanifin. No way. That makes no sense for them even on paper.
- prock

I think you missed the point of my post. I was just throwing stuff out there. The idea is that WPG has to keep their options open and not just try and lock in on a comparable dman who's a lefty.

Only trade I see working with Pittsburgh is:

To PITT: Jacob Trouba, Ondrej Pavelec

To WPG: Olli Maata, Marc Andre Fleury
- TheUltimateJet

I would do that in a heartbeat, but that makes less sense for WPG considering Hellebuyck is likely to establish himself as a starter very soon.

It makes sense because no prospect is a sure thing. Who better to mentor our young goalies than one with a Stanley Cup on his Resume?

Yeah im not trading Krug for Trouba. You can have Mcquaid a prospect and picks

. Now I know your not playing with a full deck, cause everyone needs a Bergy.

Hey, I'm fine with it. I just don't see the Jets finding MAF necessary.

Nvm doesnt make sense with quotes (still) not working

To BOS: Jacob Trouba, Andrew Copp, 2017 6th Round Pick

To WPG: Torey Krug, Jakub Zboril, David Pastrnak, 2017 1st Round Pick


Get it done Chevy! I believe in you....
- TheUltimateJet

You are NUTS!!!!!!

What are you on cause I want some

That trade seems counterproductive for the bruins
- highstick87

I agree why not just offer sheet him at 5.4 per and just give up a first and third

He's got 2 but it's ok.

How about Pouliot & MAF for Trouba & Pav?

MAF is arguably the best player in that trade.

He's also the most expensive and the oldest. Not to mention that WPG have two fantastic goaltender prospects in Hellebuyck and Comrie. They have no need (nor should they) to trade Trouba for a goaltender.

Eklund: Winnipeg and Boston Talking. Trouba for Krug + picks and prospects?
- Eklund

NO.

People need to start keeping expansion drafts in mind. Helleybuck is not expansion draft exempt. At least I don't think. You can only protect one goalie. AHE years count as pro years for exemption so he's past the 2 year exemption as of next year. Can't protect both MAF and Helleybuck.

You got some high quality crack in Atlantipeg. Get help.

- bosman

Well they probably match that. 6 mil and it starts to become questionable. And it's only a second round pick more.

I said just as much in a comment in our thread. I was just expanding on the ultimate jets comment above. Trouba would be replaced by Pouliot who is a LHD, young & potential to be an elite Dman. But as the comment above points out, prospects are just that! That would include goaltenders.

Yeah but you'll never know if either of those prospects can play if they don't get a chance. They ultimately may not turn out to be viable options as regular starting goaltenders, but I think it would be shortsighted to just ignore them and trade a monster asset like Trouba for a goaltender they don't need and can't really afford.

so are you guys suggesting when a team has a player request a trade the GM should post a pic of him bending over with some lube and sign that says open for business?

the reason most players who request a trade, don't get traded right away is because the teams wont be taken advantage of.

it's funny how some people don't get that

You really should keep your homoerotic fantasies out of the discussion.

I agree with you. I was just going down the road the jet was walking down.

Depending on how close Helly is sitting the season on the bench for the majority isn't going to help his development. He has to share the load before actually taking it completely off Pav if he can. If he can't do that he needs to play in the A - it's what Murray has done. He only came in by accident & now is going to prove his worth before the Pens make a trade. We could use Murray as #1 & Pav his backup. Can the Peg do that with Helly? If not Pav is not a good tender & the Peg are getting to a point where they need good tending to go with their developing talent. The Oil have screwed the pooch big time in my opinion by giving the goal to Talbot. Winnipeg don't want to make that same mistake.

Trouba would actually be replaced by Pouliot. So how he develops is the bigger question I suppose.

Doesn't a players NMC/NTC go bye-bye once they accept a trade or does it restart on the new team?
