WildCard Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Per Friedman and Dreger Boston is the leading contender for Nash Seems like good news for us. Also good news for my Boston SC prediction
TrueBlueGED Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Term, playoff experience, and locker room concerns Counterpoint: They're both UFAs, Kane is more productive at this point in their respective careers, and Nash is more expensive. Edited February 25, 2018 by TrueBlueGED
Thorner Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Term, playoff experience, and locker room concerns Both UFA. Counterpoint: They're both UFAs, Kane is more productive at this point in their respective careers, and Nash is more expensive. No shame in being beaten by the best. That Homer fello didn't seem so.... We were beaten by the best, boy.
Brawndo Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Per Friedman Max Pacioretty wants out of Montreal
darksabre Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Pacioretty on Eichel's wing for a year wouldn't be too bad, but he probably wants to go to a contender.
Randall Flagg Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Pacioretty on Eichel's wing for a year wouldn't be too bad, but he probably wants to go to a contender. No thanks on Patches. Helps split a locker room so that the guy who will win the Norris this year gets shipped out, proceeds to spend the most critical time of their season, last year, as captain, with 1 non empty-net-goal in 30 something games, has zero puck skills. Can he still even skate? I bet not as well as he could a couple years ago. Edited February 25, 2018 by Randall Flagg
Brawndo Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 .@RealKyper said on HNIC that #Sens are insisting on a #tblightning roster player involved in Erik Karlsson deal, mentioning Point, Namestnikov and Gourde. Yzerman has told me he doesn't want to deal from roster. FWIW I don't see any scenario where Point is moved. Gourde, too.
GASabresIUFAN Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Per Friedman Max Pacioretty wants out of Montreal Who wouldn't. Lousy team, bad weather, crushing taxes and intrusive media. Edited February 25, 2018 by GASabresIUFAN
Brawndo Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Friedman just reported if Winnipeg is looking for depth defenseman Antipin might be a target. He played for Paul Maurice in the KHL
TrueBlueGED Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Friedman just reported if Winnipeg is looking for depth defenseman Antipin might be a target. He played for Paul Maurice in the KHL I really don't see any reason to ship Antipin out unless he truly has no interest in staying here.
Brawndo Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 I really don't see any reason to ship Antipin out unless he truly has no interest in staying here. The defensive pipeline is too bare unless Botterill has gotten assurances from either Borgen and/or Fitzgerald that they are going to sign this year
Tondas Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 The defensive pipeline is too bare unless Botterill has gotten assurances from either Borgen and/or Fitzgerald that they are going to sign this year I like Antipin, but I won't be upset if anyone (other than 15) is cut, moved, or bought out. This team needs a total reboot.
Taro T Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Friedman just reported if Winnipeg is looking for depth defenseman Antipin might be a target. He played for Paul Maurice in the KHL The Sabres had better get something actually useful if they ship him out. Will be VERY ticked if Housley's mishandling of him causes them to sell him cheap. Let them have Beaulieu for a bag of pucks instead.
Brawndo Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 From John Shannon One GM tonight suggesting trade prices have yet to be completely set: "I think everyone is waiting for Nash to go, then Kane. After that it will be a scramble." And if Nash is getting a first and a high level prospect..
GoPuckYourself Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 I just hope the Kane deal isn't the only deal out there, I'd like to see Lehner traded and I hate to say it but Reinhart just doesn't look good at all, he is so plotting slow that I don't know if he'll ever be a sufficient player. Nathan Beaulieu is another guy, he could be depth for another team but he just looks lost here.This team needs an identity and they need to focus on Jack, how can they turn this guy into the true player he's capable of becoming.
Brawndo Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 More from McKenzie I don’t get the sense the teams who are interested in E Kane in BUF are same teams who were/are chasing Nash with NYR but Kane suitors will no doubt want to see what is potential yield on any Nash deal. SJ, ANA and, to lesser extent PHI, reportedly looking at E Kane. Because PHI is playing so well, GM Ron Hextall may want to enhance his team’s chances of getting into playoffs/doing well, but he’s been hesitant to pay premium prices on a rental. Some of other teams (not PHI) eyeing E Kane may be considering him possibly more than a rental.
GrassValleyGreg Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Jeremy White tweeted his guy says Watch The Flames could be Lehner or Kane My guy says JB chasing a young positional player. Not sure if the Sabres can pry the guy away or not. The tweet More from White Additional point... he says chatter. If he says it’s done I’ll of course let you know. He’s never wrong. Nothing imminent as of yet Would love to get Dillon Dube from the Flames. All around stud who should compete for minutes next year. Edited February 25, 2018 by GrassValleyGreg
IKnowPhysics Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Defensmen that I could see Botterill asking about: ANA: Lindholm, Manson, Fowler. SJ: Dillon, Braun, eat Paul Martin's salary. PHI: Provorov, Hagg, Gudas. Rumors for Lindholm or Fowler are so old, they smell funny. Provorov would be a huge coup, and not one I think Philly would want to make happen at the deadline if ever, unless we talk about an enormous trade the size of Kane + Reinhart, etc. But the thought of a Provorov-Ristolainen top pair is a nice one.

And I'd injure for Fowler.

And I'd injure for Fowler. Eichel is going nowhere. There is a -1,000,000,000,000,000% chance he will be traded. And that might be too low Plus he is injured so even if they wanted to which they don't, I don't believe they could trade him.

I know, I was commenting on the value of the players in IKP's post, some of which we would not be able to acquire with any deal where Kane is the base piece
Derrico Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Thoughts I might wake up to a Kane trade. Nothing like watching this right down to the wire.
Scottysabres Posted February 25, 2018 Report Posted February 25, 2018 Philly makes so much sense for a Kane "package" trade. At least it does if your a fan looking through the window from the outside, like myself. All you need do is look at the moves being made in EC so far and it appears as though the arms race in the East is in full swing. So far it looks like the Devils and Penguins are pushing with a handful of other teams securing front and back end depth. The Nash, Kane and McDonough shoes have yet to fall. This is one of the more exciting dead lines I can remember.
