2014 Trade Deadline Thread II (All General Trade Talk/Proposals/Blog Rumors in here)

[major major]

Schenn is also terrible. Goloubef and Prout both probably better at this point

Agreed. JVR for Schenn has to be one of the worst trades of recent years.

Agreed. That was a KO for the Maple Leafs. What a dumb move by Philly.

They did pretty well today though getting MacDonald for a couple of mid round picks.

Just last night I referred to "the Mike Gillis Amateur Hour".

I stand by that comment.

The end result is that Cory Schneider and Roberto Luongo have been traded for Jacob Markstrom, Shawn Matthias, Bo Horvat, and 15% of Luongo's contract until the end of time.

When you put it that way.... Yikes.

posted about it on the mains, but no reason why you guys (well the CBJ organization) doesn't at least see how cheap Schenn would come.. never bad to bring in someone who used to play well if you get him for pennies.. can always start one of the other youngsters ahead of him even if you land him.

 

[Jackets16]

Luongo back to the Panthers.

I just saw that and I was like, "WHAT?".

 

[CBJfan4evr]

I thought, and posted as much, that we gave up too much for Gaborik. Didnt like Moore included in the deal.

this.

I would like to think teams have already done their work. I doubt many teams are out scouting players for trades tonight.

Most pro scout staffs are at homebase through the deadline.

A different question... is there really that much more that you can learn by going to a game versus watching it on TV from a scouting perspective?

I would say yes. You can watch them the entire game. You can how they are on the puck, away from the puck, on the bench, etc.... You can only see so much on TV.

It will be fun if Gabby doesn't come out for the 2nd or 3rd periods (provided he's not broken again)

I was hoping for a warmup trade like JML

It’s Erat and John Mitchell for Klesla, Chris Brown and a pick.

Another former Jacket comes to Metro. This time it's the first ever Jackets pick. I lost the count of former Jackets playing for divisional rivalries.

Rangers had interest but were informed today that Ryan Kesler will not waive no-trade to come to New York, Post has learned.

Somebody needs to put a dunce cap on Gillis. This is ridiculous.

 

[DJA]

Absolutely no rumors out there about the CBJ right now. Which is usually when something happens.

I have a feeling that Gabby will on his way to Boston after the game. Why Boston? IDK

I wouldn't be shocked.

 

[TaketheCannoli]

I'd like to see JK give these guys a chance to stay together through the playoff push to give them a chance to grow as a team. Because of that I hope he stands pat.

Have been told there's absolutely not truth to the rumours of Cammalleri to Columbus. #Flames

didn't know this rumor even existed

One of those super fake NHLSourcezzzzzzzzzcay type twitter accounts said it.

Question for EVERYONE on the board.

Does Gaborik help this team get in the playoffs? Yes or no.

I really can't tell. If he doesn't, there has to be someone that will give futures, picks prospects for him right? This trade looks like a dud to me but it was necessary to move the guys (Dorse, Brass, Moore) to make room for the next wave imo.

 

[NotWendell]

Candidly, I think this team plays better WITHOUT Gaborik, but they'll get in with or without him.

 

[db2011]

I think he helps them get in, if they get in. I have to think he's good for a few more goals this season and there may be truth to the idea that he clears space for others to work due to teams keying on him. I was hoping he'd be more of a factor in his return (and he has scored a goal this week) but I agree with those who say he's pretty easy to separate from the puck.

There are other players who could help them get in more than Gabby, but I think he's enough of a factor to not give up for low picks.
