i can see the rags trading for him because they love those stupid overpriced contracts, and sather is dumb enough to give up staal for him.

Hey Clouts,

About that blog of yours....

Edm gets Staal = They're happy
Rangers get Nash = They're happy
Jackets get Hemsky and Gagner = Why in the blue hell would they want to do that?

Thanks in advance.

Your pal,

Scabeh

You are completely under valuing Rick Nash. He has had nobody to play with in Columbus. He is worth a lot more than Marc Staal or Gagner+Hemsky.

So Richard are you now saying being a girl is a bad thing...as the blogger here, atleast try and keep it somewhat professional!

what a maroon

I love how many TO fans are the ones slamming the three-way trade concept.

How's your summer going, Leafs fans? Bored much?
- Maxbone

It's not the concept...
It's the fact that Hemsky (who no one wants) and Gagner aren't getting it done unless you add in one of the big4, or multiple other assets (2013 1st rounder)
And I get that Howson wants players that can play...he's not gonna trade for a guy averaging 46 games played over the past 3 seasons...

He thinks Hemsky can land Crosby......no surprise there....

You know there's a whole host of true things you can say to criticize Cloutier. Making stuff up just makes you look bad.

ah. well again, i won't say who's better because i don't watch smid play but i'd be hesitant if i were you to say smid is betetr for a fact no questions asked. staal was one of the best defenseman in the league before his concussion and he's just 25 and only getting better.

defensively, staal is amazing and offensively, he's becoming better. smids career high in points is 15 which was last season and staal was pushing 30 before his concussion.

again, not saying smid isn't an awesome defenseman. just saying you might be undervaluing staal a bit and i don't think it's fair for you to say that smid is 100% better.

would u guys do a McDonagh for Eberle/Hall trade out of curiosity?

nope

Sather is brutal on July 1 with UFA signings. He however is the master at trading. He traded Gomez, Tom Pyatt and Michael Busto for Christopher Higgins, Doug Janik, Ryan McDonagh, and Pavel Valentenko.

Time to change your username? I thought Parise was a lock to sign in New Jersey?

nope

you wouldn't trade for the 2012-13 norris winner?

you wouldn't trade for the 2012-13 norris EDIT: and calder winner?

But we already have J. Schultz...

No ones ever said that. Ever. Shut up idiot.

The Oilers are never going to trade for Rick Nash. EVER. It makes no (frank)ing sense whatsoever.

Trading Hall, Eberle, Hall or Yakupov or even our first next year for overrated Nash and his mammoth contract is so laughable I don't even know where to begin.

But we already have J. Schultz...
- BigDre

sorry but the calder winner kreider is on the rangers too.

I don't even know where to begin.

Let's start at the beginning.

Now now, let's not go overkill here.

Norris-J. Schultz
Calder-Yakupov

Plus Ebs gets the Hart, Nuge gets the Art Ross, and Hall gets the Messier #confirmed

Oh I agree...it makes zero sense...
Even the proposed 3way is dumb...Oilers would have to overpay to get Nash, and wouldn't get the return they want for Nash to even it out...

damn this team looks STACKED:
Norris - McD
Selke - Callahan
Calder - Kreider
Vezina - Hank again
Rocket - Nash
Hart - Hank
Lady Byng - Callahan
Art Ross - Nash
Jack Adams - Torts
Ted Lindsay - Stu fcking Bickell
Conn Smythe - Richards

Damn...I was gonna argue with you until I saw that #confirmed at the end...that just makes it truth

In regards to Eberle for McDonagh, I don't think either team would do it. It isn't always about value but how a certain guy fits in. THese two are both keys to their teams. Neither gets moved in any package.

oh yea total pipedream i was just curious to see how they rated mcd compared to some of their superkids.

Cloudier this was such a retarded blog, I wish I never read it. I have seen so many bad blogs before, mostly from Garth, but this one tops the list.

Watching them last year, just felt like they were missing something.
Nash could be the piece...

And the Crazy part is; outside of Nash winning the Art Ross, and obviously Bickell winning ted lindsay, none of them are that far fetched.

Change both those to richards and it would be plausible.

Good team
