There are 2 problems with all of the Weber/Suter trade rumors.

1) Poile is not going to trade either of them at the trade deadline unless he gets a fools ransom for them and enough in return to remain competitive this year, and build for the future.

2) Teams looking to add Weber and Suter for a deep playoff run are not going to give Poile a fools ransom, unless it is draft picks and prospects. This is because contending teams are not going to give up key pieces of their team. Furthermore, they can't give up draft picks because they are not high draft picks.

In my opionion, if Weber or Suter are traded, it will be to a team that is rebuilding and looking to make a big splash. The challenge is they will have to move fast as Weber/Suter want to be in the Cup Finals now, not 3 or 4 years down the road. Compounding the problem, Weber and Suter are arguable both in the top 5 free agents. Overall, however, this years free agent class is the weakest in years. The draft, however, may be one of the deepest in years, so early draft picks are key.

OMG nobody has ever displayed the cleverness you have, and used my name as a retort.

How could I have not seen that coming?

Damn I need to get a new account now.

There is only 1 problem. They are all complete and utter BS, just dreamed up by someone out of thin air.

... I heard from a source today, that the Leafs and NYI are very close to a deal for Tavares. It would be Aulie, Kadri and a first for Tavares. The hold up is that a western conference team is also making a big push for Tavares.

Columbus isn't doing that deal no way !
You really think that Malone commands that much based on what ?

Your right leafs likely miss the playoffs

- juniorcarp

Why wouldn't CBJ do that deal? They have their future tender in Schneider and a possible 30 goal guy in return for a bust!

Malone doesn't command that much but a team looking to make the finals and win a Cup has to pay to get holes filled! He is the perfect fit for a Vancouver club looking for size and scoring!

Be aware Wings fans. The Hemsky trade rumor that has been bubbling for a few days is via a FAKE Twitter account. #RedWings #Oilers

I highly doubt Tavares is moving anywhere especially for a package of Kadri (bust) Aulie (4th pairing D) and a mid level 1st rounder! Tavares will get more than 1 first rounder (based on age) and a better set than Kadri and Aulie! Who is your source? JoJo the psychic?

To get jeff carter it will take at least bernier, oscar moller, Jaret stoll, and a draft pick.

If the Flyers wants Weber, it will take Claude Giroux, a dman (probably Carle) and a 1st round pick. But I really hope both Weber and Suter stays in Nashville, especially Weber, he's our captain, he's the heart and the soul of the team, he can't be traded.

Being a Flyer fan I know it sounds out to lunch but that seems pretty accurate! How much will other teams pay for the BEST D man in the league??

Well, Nashville is making a push for Tavares..And if it is true, my guess it it would be part of a 3 way trade with another team. That would make it much easier to work in a trade that includes Weber or Suter.

If Burke could do that, he'd win that trade. But no, I think others would be involved

Reimer + Schenn for Schneider + Hodgson and a 1st?

Flyers fans will laught, but they forget that they gave up 2 1sts and 2 former 1st round picks for Pronger. Weber is younger and has more upside.

yeah because if there's one thing that will turn around the Leaf's fortunes its a slow, overpaid guy who's 'big'.

Malone'd be our forward equileant of Komisarek

Kadri + Schenn + 1st for Scheider -OR- Hodgson

I could see something like this...

To Philly - Weber
To Nashville - Taveres, Matt Carle, and NYI 1st
To NYI - Philly 1st and 2nd, Jonathan Blum, Nashville Goalie Prospect Jeremy Smith, and JVR
