GASabresIUFAN Posted October 25, 2016 Report Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) Sooooo Reinhart? :angel: I've been watching the Ducks games to see how Fowler has been playing. Don't kid yourselves, he's not coming cheap even if he's the one to truly get moved. He's arguably the best defender they have right now. Maybe they'll trade Vatanen instead. I thought they should have traded him instead of re-signing him given his age. Fowler is younger, and cheaper for the next two seasons. You can always move Fowler after this season to give a roster space to Montour and Theodore long-term. They also have another top D prospect in Jacob Larsson. Maybe this is what they are trying to do. Get offers for both Fowler and Vatanen and then take the max offer. However they are running out of time and teams are running out of cap space.

They would likely get a higher return and save money by doing so. And they also have Thedore waiting in the wings. Quote

They would likely get a higher return and save money by doing so. And they also have Thedore waiting in the wings. Zemgus, Baptiste, and a conditional 2nd Quote
WildCard Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 Zemgus, Baptiste, and a conditional 2ndFor Lindholm? You're joking, right? Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 There's not much I wouldn't give up for Lindolm. Quote
LGR4GM Posted October 26, 2016 Author Report Posted October 26, 2016 For Lindholm? You're joking, right? As a starting point. Anaheim can't take on much salary at all. So that leaves zemgus and prospects. Quote
WildCard Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 As a starting point. Anaheim can't take on much salary at all. So that leaves zemgus and prospects.I think you're going to have to change that pick to a first, Baptiste to Foligno, or both Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 No way we get Lindolm without Nylander as part of the package, or for Reinhart as the package. Need to send a true blue chipper the other way to get him. Quote
Derrico Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 Ya I think this would take Nylander. Which I would be willing to do...... Quote
Randall Flagg Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 It would cost Nylander plus a sizable amount, or Reinhart plus a small amount. Quote

Need to send a true blue chipper the other way to get him. Exactly. It seems like everyone is channeling the Wookie lately with trade proposals. Lindholm would require Nylander plus sweeteners at a minimum or more likely Reinhart. He was drafted 6th overall and has shown to be both worth the pick along with 4 years of steady development. I don't care about their cap situation. There will be 28 other teams besides us who are interested so the idea that we're gonna fleece them of a blue chipper for spare parts is highly unlikely. Quote

Lindholm for Larsson, Baptiste, and a 2nd round pick. Not enough? Fine, we'll throw in a basket of crispy wings, but they have to throw in a deluxe chicken burrito from Del Taco. Quote
WildCard Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 Never had Del Taco, is it good? Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 Never had Del Taco, is it good? That depends on the extent to which you enjoy sitting on the toilet. Quote

SwampD Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 Grew up on Mighty Taco, Buffalo wings, and cream ales. I'd say it's become a pastime for me They're just called wings. Quote
Drunkard Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 Never had Del Taco, is it good? If your stomach can handle Mighty Taco then Del Taco should be no problem. I haven't had Del Taco since I moved from Irvine in the early to mid 90's though. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 They're just called wings. f'real. this is non-negotiable. one of the local t-shirt companies made a shirt about this and everything. Quote
WildCard Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 They're just called wings.Yah I screwed the pooch on that one :lol: Quote
Brawndo Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 My greatest fear is that Toronto will trade part of their stable of prospects and acquire Lindholm or Fowler. Pretty sure my head would actually explode if that happens Quote
jsb Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 That depends on the extent to which you enjoy sitting on the toilet. With the Sunday paper or with a Nook??? Quote
Drunkard Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 My greatest fear is that Toronto will trade part of their stable of prospects and acquire Lindholm or Fowler. Pretty sure my head would actually explode if that happens I could see them trading somebody like Marner plus a sweetener for Lindholm. I hope not, but it's definitely a possibility. Especially after they've been able to unload the Phaneuf, Clarkson, and Kessel contracts. Quote
Samson's Flow Posted October 26, 2016 Report Posted October 26, 2016 Yah I screwed the pooch on that one :lol: Admitting your mistake is the first step towards recovery. Quote
