Trade Deadline 2016

[WildCard]

A team looking to win yet another Cup? 

They have the league's MVP (blowing everyone out of the water too) having major success with Panarin and Anisimov. They're cost controlled, and Panarin is much younger. I wouldn't obliterate my best line, and a top 3 line in the league, to just rent Stamkos and his cap troubles

[TrueBlueGED]

I think trading Panarin, Kruger, and Anisimov for Stamkos makes them worse, to be honest.

It depends what Chicago wants to do. A s I said, I wouldn't necessarily do the deal, just pointing out a deal can be done. A PP unit with Kane, Toews and Stamkos  has to give any GM something to think about.

I'm confused. What would be the motivation behind getting Stamkos? Win now? Win long term? Cap issues?

 

Also, if I'm TB, I don't do that deal either

Win now, absolutely. No cap issues because you can let Stamkos walk and the Hawks replenish their roster as they normally do. Business as usual in Chicago. 

 

The Lightning would not likely get a better offer.

I think True's right, I think that deal immediately puts them back and out of serious contention this year.

 

I don't think TB would get a better offer, but it'd take more than a rookie winger thriving on a the line of the league's MVP as the main piece for Stamkos for them to risk it

[Thorner]

Pretty decent deal for the Jets. They get a first which is always good, but unfortunately for them it will be a late first. Still good value for a rental. Dano is having a middling year, couldn't crack the NHL on a mainstay basis (tough to do so in Chicago), and only 4 goals in 34 games in the A. Don't see why the Jets would want another small-ish winger, they seem to be getting a little away from the identity they carved for themselves last year, that was working.

 

All in all, a reasonable trade and good value for a rental. Obviously from Chicago's perspective the deal makes a ton of sense.

[nfreeman]

I think Chicago gave up a lot for Ladd.  It's well worth it if he plays well and they win another Cup, which could happen, but he just doesn't seem to have much left IMHO.

 

As for Stamkos -- as others have said upthread, Chicago wouldn't offer the deal DeLuca proposed, but if they did, I think TB would take it in a heartbeat.

Guess who's back, back again

Liger's back, tell a friend

Guess who's back,

guess who's back,

guess who's back,

Guess who's back...

 

[Verse 1]

You’ve created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to

see L.G.R. no more they want Liger I'm chopped liver

well if you want Liger, this is what I'll give ya

a little bit of wit mixed with some quick kickers

some knowledge that'll jumpstart your heart quicker than a

goal scored off Jack’s stick with Samson helping

with quick passes when the Defense’s not collaborating

When Jack’s scores with the skill like he’s damn amazing

You waited this long so stop debating, cuz I’m back

I'm on this board and postulating

I know that you got a job Nfreeman but this board’s problems are complicated

So my A.D.D. won’t let me leave or let me see what’s OCD

PA want’s to talk Pegula so let us see how far He’ll take it without me

So come on wit, words on my lips, hear that

It’s giving you fits and causing you trips because this s#!t’s about to get heavy

I just observed and learned, best f##king get ready!

 

 

[Chorus 2x:]

Now this looks like a job for me so everybody just follow me

'Cause we need a little controversy,

'Cause it feels so empty without me

 

[Verse 2]

Little hellions kids feeling rebellion

embarrassed, their parents still reminisce about Dominik hasek

they start feel all kinds of nostalgic

til someone comes along on a mission and yells Linus

An apparition, appearing so quick, could start a revolution, polluting your ice cave a rebel

Just let me revel in bask in the fact y’all be kissing Steve Stamkos’ @ss

And it’s a disaster, a catastrophe for you to think that’s the savior that we need

Well, I’m back (batman theme)

Fixing up your bent antennae, tune it and then I’m gonna

Drop Jack front and center

The center of attention back for the winner

He’s extraordinary, the best thing since Drury

Cruelly, not yet even where he will be

Testing “attention please” feel the tension soon as someone disagrees

Here’s my 10 cents, my 2 cents are free

Assurance, insurance, Steve S we don’t need

 

[Chorus 2x:]

Now this looks like a job for me so everybody just follow me

'Cause we need a little controversy,

'Cause it feels so empty without me

 

[Verse 3]

A Linus a Zemgus, I'll go tits for tats with anybody who's talking they ain’t good we’re passed that.

Run our goalie you can get your @ss kicked

Worse because Kane is bat$#!t, And Gary

You should get stomped by  Kimmy,

you old fart that game below me, It’s starting to bore me,

nobody wants clutch and grab no!

Now let’s go, just give the ref’s the signal, they’ll be blowing more penalties than JJ-5-O

Sabrespace be dope, but it’s getting hard watching this team choke

Ever since that Regier bloke

But sometimes it just seems everybody only wants to discuss memes

So that must mean our teams obscene, because Rob Ray just can’t un-seen

Though I’m not the first board guy to type a rhyme

I am the first to come back with mine, and it seems just in time

Because  y’all have Stamkos on your mind

But hey! 20 million other posts on your screens

But no matter how many fish in this sea, it’d be so empty without me

[Hoss]

Liger, do you kiss the mirror with that mouth?

But there's no trades. Just LGR perving out on Hoss' poor mother.

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie

Sounds like Christian Ehrhoff will be moving from LA to CHI. Not an official trade but likely to occur. #TSN #tradecentre

 

Mark Lazerus @MarkLazerus

Source says Rob Scuderi likely headed to #LAKings. @TSNBobMcKenzie reporting that Christian Ehrhoff is "likely" headed to #Blackhawks.
