Eklund: Jordan Staal Rumors? Overplayed or Possible? & 1 Team Who Wants Him Badly
- Eklund

Bryz for Staal...

Alex Edler For Jordan Staal

That is quite fair

The the nucks can trade lu for gardiner (hopefully)

Schenn, MacArthur, Colborne for J.Staal

Staal...id take any of the brothers...on the canucks....Jord is stuck behind Sid & Malkin...he can play top minutes

I'd love to get Staal in an Iginla trade (that won't happen) but I'm pretty sure the Flames would have to put more in the package.

Kesler for Staal. Similar players, both teams need a shakeup.

Kulemin Kadri 1st in 2013 Franson for Staal

Bryz for Staal...

How about Staal for Gustafson.

I would never do that unless I see Keslers offensive production go up.

I would only do that if Keslers offensive production went up.

If I'm the Pens, I'm not moving him.

He's not a #1 center, but a great #2 (on a good team). But he's only 23, has a Cup ring, great defensively, and has improved offensively every year since his second season. His ceiling might end up as a solid number one center.

Are freakin drunk?

If Staal is available. Burke needs to work the phones hard for this one. Here is your big #1 centerman.

Agreed, the only way I'd trade him if we had a replacement 3rd line center in the farm system (Which we don't) and/or we got a gritty 70 pt winger which teams not might not want to swap a winger for a center.

Leafs 5th overall pick + Schenn + Kadri for Stall.

I can see stall going to the sharks. I don't know why. I have a feeling those two(sharks,pens) will be good buddy's this offseason.

pavelski, and braun for staal

Are freakin drunk?

if he signs an extension i would do that deal,my bad for not putting that in there.

Well Staal has never had near the output that Kesler had last year at 40 goals, ~80 points. Canucks would be taking on the risk that Staal is a career 50 - 60 pointer vs the 70 - 80 that Kesler has proven he's good for. Think it's pretty fair, of course Kesler is coming off shoulder surgery.

I hope your right!!!! the sharks need to shake things up big time, and staal would be a perfect player to do so!

Yes, but can Kesler do it consistently. Staal was on pace for some where around 65 pts. Also, his production has gone up since his 2nd year (Offensive)
