ct fab Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 NHL Rumors@NHLRumorsDailyI get the skepticism about the Vesey info because he can't sign until August 15th, but I was told he has made it known Buffalo is 1st choice Quote

Won't know whether to be disappointed we didn't improve our forward corps, or okay with it due to operating under the assumption we are getting Vesey. If one chooses to believe this rumor. ' Quote

ct fab Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Yep - Having him not be able to sign until Aug 15 complicates the Jul 1 free agency. It would be like unwrapping Christmas gifts early BUT I would be very happy if we traded a third for the rights to Vesey. Quote
Thorner Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 If one chooses to believe Vesey! Which from alleged past instances would potentially be a fool's response. Quote
ct fab Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 NAS vs what Vesey's agent says. His agent said they told NAS weeks before the deadline that he wasn't signing. NAS GM probably just trying to save face is my thoughts. If I could play with Eichel for the next 15 years, I probably wouldn't have signed either. An ad by the anchor bar - too funny Quote

pi2000 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 First of all I highly doubt he's told anybody except his parents and agent what he wants to do, and would be smart to keep it a secret, assuming he already knows. If I'm him, I pick about 6 or so teams and go visit them in depth come August 15th. Find out what his role would be, where he fits, met the coaches, GM's, etc... Maybe he does like the thought of playing with Eichel, but after some visits he might prefer a different team for other reasons. Second, his production dropped off last season compared to 14-15'. Scored almost 10 fewer goals. He was a 3rd round pick in 2012. He's likely not the long term answer to play on Eichel's wing. Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Is this a legitimate source? You tell me NHL Rumors @NHLRumorsDaily 33m33 minutes ago Buffalo would send #8+Foligno+a mid round pick to CBJ for #3. CBJ would be happy to drop to #8 and take Logan Brown. Nothing is done yet!!! If that trade rumor were to be true, as CBus GM, I would make a conditional deal with Buffalo. We will draft who you want at #3. If Logan Brown is available at #8 we will trade you the #3 choice for #8 and that stuff. Quote

We will draft who you want at #3. If Logan Brown is available at #8 we will trade you the #3 choice for #8 and that stuff. IMO that's not nearly enough to move up to #3. Probably would take another decent prospect like Bailey/Fasching + Foligno + 8 + a 3rd Quote

CBJ would be happy to drop to #8 and take Logan Brown. Nothing is done yet!!! Now that is one I'm doing in a heartbeat. Therefore, not likely legitimate. Pretty sure someone is offering more than that for # 3 and likely much more. Unless they Marcus can revive Nick's career this deal is not legit in my eyes. Quote
ct fab Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Is this a legitimate source? Better than most twitter ones, but I don't trust anybody other than Mackenzie Quote
Thorner Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) You tell me NHL Rumors @NHLRumorsDaily 33m33 minutes ago Buffalo would send #8+Foligno+a mid round pick to CBJ for #3. CBJ would be happy to drop to #8 and take Logan Brown. Nothing is done yet!!! If that trade rumor were to be true, as CBus GM, I would make a conditional deal with Buffalo. We will draft who you want at #3. If Logan Brown is available at #8 we will trade you the #3 choice for #8 and that stuff. But what if Brown is gone by #8, then Columbus is stuck with the guy Buffalo wanted at 3, and not who they wanted. Unless Puljujarvi is the guy they want should no trade go down. Which I suppose would be likely. Any deal would probably be made before the Jackets made the pick. Edited June 17, 2016 by Thorny Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Is this a legitimate source? Almost certainly not. Quote
Hoss Posted June 17, 2016 Author Report Posted June 17, 2016 Better than most twitter ones, but I don't trust anybody other than Mackenzie It's most certainly not "better than most Twitter ones." That account is a perfect example of why so many hate sports Twitter. It just makes up. Zero legitimacy. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Yeah, wow, not getting Puljujarvi for that. Still glad I don't have a twitter account Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Yeah, wow, not getting Puljujarvi for that. Still glad I don't have a twitter account That's like looking at a Ford Pinto and being like "still glad I don't drive a car". Quote
Derrico Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 I also don't have twitter. What's with all the misinformation out there? Do some ppl just think they're being cool or funny tossing whatever out there? Quote
Eleven Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 Which from alleged past instances would potentially be a fool's response. What wouldn't be a fool's response is sending Nashville a sixth or seventh round pick (hey, Nashville, it's better than nothing) to begin negotiating with Vesey now. Quote

What do you mean? Wouldn't it be smart to send a 7th round pick for negotiating rights? Quote

Didn't he have a deadline to pass, and if he didn't sign he goes to UFA. Or am I pulling this out of my @$$. Quote

LGR4GM Posted June 17, 2016 Report Posted June 17, 2016 It would be smart, i.e., it wouldn't be foolish. Oh I see what you meant. Yea, would be interesting to see if Murray offers a pick for Vesey's rights. Considering he can't talk to him at all not sure he would do that. Quote
