The team that made the offer was Detroit.

The team was absolutely not Detroit. Wings made a huge offer on July 4th, but since the nothing.

It was probably the Rangers since they've been trying to figure out the right deal for awhile. Its to the point where they should just offer Stepan, Dubinsky, Miller,1st and say final offer take it or leave it. Hate to lose Stepan but they could figure it out with a FA like Hecht or Langkow for a year and then go after Getzlaf or maybe Stastny next year.

That deal doesnt help the Ducks. But a Nash package for a Bobby Ryan package could go for both sides.

True, I was just thinking in terms of what other types of trades work for teams, not just the Jackets.

You're right, he is a big player...a game changer type player but the Jackets have to be realistic. Bobby Ryan + is worth exploring. Hopefully they consider that type of offer.

I would be okay with giving up Krejci, Ference, Caron and a 1st for Rick Nash.

Perhaps a bit of Game of Thrones dialogue mixed in with a dash of Dumb and Dumber.

That's more like it. I think that trade would help the Jackets.

Your about the only CBJ fan floating around here ever. Do you care if Nash goes? Would you like to keep him if they could mend theyre fences?

The dispatch is saying that maybe it's because of negotiations for the cba that teams are not willing to take their chances on Nash.....maybe that explains why Howson is ''revising'' his strategy .

I don't know if it was ever true but that rumored deal of Dubi, Anisimov, Del Zotto, and one of their decent prospects (forgot which) sounded pretty freakin' good to me. The other I heard was Pavelski, Clowe, and Vlasic but that couldn't be right.

I'm not sure what makes Howson more retarded: passing up on one of those offers or thinking he can somehow patch it up with Nash after this whole circus.

Set up an auction with a deadline; send Columbus your best offer by Saturday, they'll let you know by Tuesday. Take the best 2 deals and negotiate with those 2 teams just to see if there is anything else. Either way, take the best deal you can at this point. Move on.
