Steven Julio Downie.

I don’t understand how Howson is expecting to get the world for Rick Nash. He’s got a 7.8 million dollar cap hit, a NMC, and is a 60ish pt player. With the inability to drive up a bidding war, and production that is no where near worth the cap hit, where’s the value for any other GM (lucky enough to be selected by Nash as a potential trading partner) to sell the farm for him, I just don’t get it.

Joe Thornton was traded for Marco Sturm, Wayne Primeau, and Brad Stuart

Mike Richards was traded for Brayden Schenn, Wayne Simmonds, and a 1st

Brad Richards was traded for Mike Smith, Jeff Halpern, Jussi Jokinen and a 4th

Ilya Kovalchuk was traded for Niclas Bergfors, Johnny Oduya, Patrice Cormier and a 1st

And they’re suggesting Kadri, Gardiner/Schenn, Colbourne, and a 1st rounder? (otherwords, basically all of our high end assets)

Looking at what the players above brought back to their respective clubs, does anyone honestly think Rick Nash is worth more than the above mentioned??

I understand Nash has attributes that go beyond his point production, but to me this rumoured asking price is beyond absurd…for any team to pay

Damn. Would have loved Downie in blue and white.

Twas making a joke about the TBL jerseys being identical to TML. But yes I would love a guy like him on the third line over a guy like Lombardi/Crabb.
