I think we should be sellers . We are in a turn around year. Sell and welcome the new
- VANTEL


For sure but RJ is only 23 n can keep us competitive.
Idk but it might be a fit for the TL/JB retool pan.
Much depends on RJ n if he's the real deal for our future.

I see Sedins prolly still here for 1 more contract n forward
depth is greatly enhanced if they they do n stay to mentor
as the kids start taking over. With Hansen, Dorsett around
still with a healthy Sutter I can live with that going forward.
Prust can stay or be gone either way. On D it's drafting n
using patience cuz no quick fixes to be had IMO.

Either way it's picks for Vrbata/Burrows at worst by the TDL.
Cannot see them both here next year as matters stand.

This next draft n the one after we might get 1-2D that
step right in or very soon or we sign decent UFA D.

I can not begin to tell you how huge of a mistake it would be to give the Sedins another contract after this. If Hank misses any extended period of time , watch how the leadership will turn to Bo and JM

Ryan Johansen trade .... this is how it will go.

Gaunce, Hamhuis, Prust and their 2nd back to them. Long shot, Vey thrown in.

No Horvat, Virtanen,McCann or Shrink will be in the mix.

We cannot afford to give up Vrbata at this time and Torts hates Burrows and I think everyone thinks Higgins is a waste of carbon.

Prust is gone at the end of the year anyways to be replaced by Lucic.

Don't bother Marwood I flagged myself

Ship him to Columbus before he's associated with the word "bust"

Of the three, id ship Virtanen for Johansen without thinking about it. He's got the biggest chance of busting of the three. Maybe it's his similarities to Kassian, but Im not loving his game yet.

Sedin Sedin Burrows
Baertschi Johansen Vrbata
McCann Horvat Sutter
Prust Cracknell Dorsett

What a third line of centres we'd have.

Agreeeeed. Virt, Tanev 2nd.

Trade our hopefully top 5 pick for a young established D to move back a few spots and select the best remaining defensive prospect available.

We may need to give up the Lucic dream...looks like the Queens are getting ready to go deep and resign him.

I'm a fan of RJ but you have to wonder of the risks involved. Could be a very risky deal depending on the assets being moved. We can't move Bo McCann Hutton Virtanen Shink but we can move Hamhuis Tanev Burrows Higgins Weber and even Hansen if need be. No chance of Vrbata going to CBJ he will go to a contender at TDL..or he should. CBJ won't take our scraps so dangling rookies/prospects/picks this team can't really afford. If Johansen's health issues turn out to be a larger picture...

I feel like this is a trap game, where we play down to our opponent. Wait a second, we are that opponent now.

1 point outta the playoffs n 6th overall pick atm.
Just luvin it πŸ‘πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

If we r n sell mode now or the TDL n also trade for RJ we will stockpile picks.
Q is who goes the other way for RJ?

Vrbata for 2017 2nd/4thπŸ‘‡to CBJπŸ‘‡
TANEV, BURROWS, 2017 2nd/4th
maybe a lil weak idk

Hamhuis 2016 2nd/3rd when healthy
Higgins for 4th

Just some spitballin

- Nighthawk

they wouldnt want Vrbata or Burrows. That makes zero sense.

They wont give up a big young centermen for guys on the tail end of their careers.

Have we just given up on having a defence? I can't understand why anyone would trade Tanev for anything other than another defenceman.
