Brayden Schenn would be nice, but who goes the other way? Gotta be a centre on the roster, right?
And, didn't Schenn just recently sign a long(er) term deal?

I took it to mean Luke Schenn, not Brayden.

What's up with rumors about these D-men? Precursor to another move has to be answer.

As much as I think we will make a trade for post season success, I think we make a trade that sets us up to be expansion draft compliant.
Right now we have 4 forwards to protect (Kane, Hossa, Toews and AA) and can protect three more (Kruger, Hartman and Panik) is my guess, but we need to expose in the draft two players under contract next year that will have played 40 games this year or 70 total that last two years. Dezi, Rassmussen and Tootu will have played that right amount of games but all are not under contract. A simple way to avoid that is have Rass or Dezi agree to an extension now or before the expansion draft

Ohhhhhhh............nevermind.

Per the Hedger/Powers podcast last night, a Hedger "good" source said that Seabrook has been asked for his 10 teams and VAN (hometown), EDM, and CO were given as part of that. Starts around 28:00.

Would they really move Seabrook mid season?

I think his contract will be an albatross on this team in the future, but would StanBo make a TDL move with Seabs?
Will some GM overpay for #7?

Benning will offer a nice package and throw in some 2nd round picks

The Oilers would have to add...their 1st at least.

I thought Seabrook is supposed to have a full NMC for these first 6 years of his contract and he wouldn't provide a list in that case.

With his and his agent's OK, can't any clause of the contract be overridden? Or, would the NHLPA have to be involved?

Players can waive there clauses. IE Seabrook could waive his NMC and be exposed to EXP draft if he wants.

New prospect report out https://theathletic.com/3...ikura-with-a-big-weekend/

That's funny. Not agreeing that this is a tactic, but Seabrook did not trip anyone. Baertchi tried to jump behind Seabs on the move to dangle around him and thy clipped skates. It was a nothing play.

That steams me. He dove then took out Seabrook.

Nah watched it again. Their skates collided.

And maybe lose his job after that trade?

Not overly surprised. Vancouver could use help on defense, but they don't have much cap space.

Maybe that explains why 7 had his best game in two months last night ....

Here ya go. Crow and TVR to Dallas for Sharp Oduya and Niemi.

If this is true, WOW, what the hell are we going to get in return, Landeskog, okay then what do we do to fill the gaping hole at 2nd pairing RD? TVR isn't the answer

After listening to this whole thing, just to clarify some points: they didn't specifically say anything about a list and the time stamp that they talk about it is at about 25:25 for those interested. They also don't say the team has spoken to him at all about waiving his full NMC, just that a good source believes Seabrook would waive for Vancouver, Edmonton, and Colorado. The latter comes with a lot of skepticism from both guys - they specifically say "and it sounds ridiculous" and the other says "it doesn't make any sense" / "check his sources."

Also, off-topic to trades, they did get something else wrong in that podcast related to the expansion draft - they said that a player must be under contract to be eligible and specifically say not a qualifying offer, but that is incorrect. An RFA must only have been extended a QA to be eligible for the expansion draft and it's completely out of the hands of the player at that point. I only mention it because they went on about it for like 3-4 minutes. They were talking about how the Hawks would have to expose Hartman as it stands now, which is technically true, but that will change once they extend Panik and Rasmussen QAs.

I wouldn't move Seabrook unless a NHL forward and d-man are coming back. They have no one to fill his spot in season and absolutely none of the suggests of targets come even slightly close.

Here ya go. Crow and TVR to Dallas for Sharp Oduya and Niemi.

but if they are going to retire Magnusson who is NOT a hall of famer ...


- SteveRain

While I understand the overarching sentiment, I was under the impression that Maggie was included on the number, as it was Pilote who was the main reason for 3 being retired, and no one can argue Pilote not deserving it.

Those 3 guys would be on my list -and while I got nothing against Chelios, I think Doug Wilson meant more to the team than he did (and I know Cheli meant a lot in the day)... but really, you can't retire all of them -so where do you draw the line? Probably after Larmer, Roenick and Belfour for awhile.

- BetweenTheDots

Cap wise, you wouldn't save much, doesn't Landeskog make over $5 mill a year?

Without Seabrook--and no replacement--that means Rosival plays more?

I got it...

Seabrook to somewhere for picks and/or prospects

Then schmaltz and forsling to Dallas for Oduya and Sharp (Dallas retaining half of Sharps salary).

Would it work?

Iwould think that if they could move Seabrook they should be all over that . If Edmonton is on that list they have forwards to deal.
