Derrico Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 Why are we not reported to be in on these types of moves? Are we not in a similar stage of the rebuild as Toronto? Have they now blown way ahead? Do we not have assets that could be dealt and also have a great need to improve the D? Quote

It doesn't matter what's reported as much as it does what's actually going on behind the scenes. Quote
WildCard Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 Maybe we are in, who knows? It doesn't matter what's reported as much as it does what's actually going on behind the scenes. True, but these guys usually have a pretty good grasp on what's going on behind the scenes. Although nobody in the hockey universe saw Subban for Weber happening last year Quote

pi2000 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 Anyone still aboard the Tyson Barrie train? Quote
WildCard Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 Huh, really pi? Didn't peg you as a Barrie fan Quote
pi2000 Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 Huh, really pi? Didn't peg you as a Barrie fan +/- be damned, I love his skill set. Quote
WildCard Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 +/- be damned, I love his skill set. I've been waiting to add to my signature for awhile Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 any interest in Calvin Da Haan or is he not good? Quote
dudacek Posted June 9, 2017 Report Posted June 9, 2017 DeHaan should definitely be a target: mobile second pairing in his mid-20s on a team with protection problems. Islanders fans say he was consistently dependable last year. Quote
Brawndo Posted June 9, 2017 Author Report Posted June 9, 2017 any interest in Calvin Da Haan or is he not good? DeHaan should definitely be a target: mobile second pairing in his mid-20s on a team with protection problems. Islanders fans say he was consistently dependable last year. And would probably be cheaper then the Top Tier Defenseman to acquire. Quote
Brawndo Posted June 10, 2017 Author Report Posted June 10, 2017 From a Chicago Beat Reporter Lots of smoke around the Hawks tonight. Texts w several sources have me in "hold on to your butt" mode. Good chance core guy is moved soon. Quote
dudacek Posted June 10, 2017 Report Posted June 10, 2017 Every single core guy has a no-trade. Toews and Kane would put virtually every team in the league except Vegas into serious cap,trouble. Keith remains a relative contract (not cap) bargain and Seabrook is cap suicide. The only ones with even a sliver of a chance of moving are Hossa and Crawford. Hossa and a first to the Knights for a promise to take Kruger? Quote
Brawndo Posted June 10, 2017 Author Report Posted June 10, 2017 Updated TSN Trade Bait List Kane at 8, Lehner at 22. http://www.tsn.ca/kane-smith-join-tsn-hockey-s-trade-bait-board-1.774908 Quote

Brawndo Posted June 10, 2017 Author Report Posted June 10, 2017 IBN Bob( he is right more then he is wrong lately) reports that Toronto is after one of Four Defenseman Vatanen, DeHaan, Harmonic or Brodin. Quote
Derrico Posted June 10, 2017 Report Posted June 10, 2017 IBN Bob( he is right more then he is wrong lately) reports that Toronto is after one of Four Defenseman Vatanen, DeHaan, Harmonic or Brodin. That's exactly what we should be doing. Quote
inkman Posted June 10, 2017 Report Posted June 10, 2017 That's exactly what we should be doing. Maybe we are and just not blabbing about it to the media Quote
Derrico Posted June 10, 2017 Report Posted June 10, 2017 Maybe we are and just not blabbing about it to the media Maybe Quote
Randall Flagg Posted June 11, 2017 Report Posted June 11, 2017 I would move pieces for De Haan and Brodin. Quote
dudacek Posted June 11, 2017 Report Posted June 11, 2017 JBot will bring in at least two d-men: a veteran free agent and a younger trade acquisition. I'd say somebody we whavemt talked about, but there aren't many of those left, so "not Vatanen, Brodin or Fowler (or any Duck, for that matter) Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 11, 2017 Report Posted June 11, 2017 The interesting thing with da Haan is that he is a 26 rfa meaning he might be looking for more money then NYI want to spend with Tavares needing a deal. Quote
thewookie1 Posted June 11, 2017 Report Posted June 11, 2017 I'd love to get de Haan, get Housley, and until Guhle gets up to the NHL we could run de Haan-Risto McCabe-Bogo Gorges/Falk-Antipin Tell Bogo to forget being a defensive defenseman and to play open like the 30 games near the end of 15-16 and with Housley's help we could have 5/6 Dmen capable of jumping up into the play, and then when Guhle comes we'd have 3 D pairs with the ability to cause chaos from anywhere.

Derrico Posted June 12, 2017 Report Posted June 12, 2017 Think we hear any deals announced today? Quote
