lol of course he can, but he's our worst (not saying he's bad) defenseman and makes $2.9M. Also most tradeable D-man, besides Yandle, but who the **** wants to trade Yandle.
Any thought of trading Glass is very amusing to him.Glass
Yandle-McDonagh
Staal-Boyle
Hunwick/Skjei-Klein/McIlrath
I want to see McDonagh-Boyle but the other pairings don't fitAV is stubborn and and hates playing D men on their off sides. Don't see that happening.

A couple of GMs indicated Cam Talbot is probably the top choice among cap-friendly, potential No. 1 options. Another suggested Lack second and Robin Lehner third.

Nothing new but this is from Elliotte Friedman's 30 thoughts.

Seems like Cam is the guy everyone wants.
Friend of mine just told me that he heard a rumor from tsn hockey about the Rangers and lucic with yandle involved..anyone hear of this??
Idk, Lucic has cap hit of $6M, and Yandle makes $2.5M; both are UFAs next summer..Friend of mine just told me that he heard a rumor from tsn hockey about the Rangers and lucic with yandle involved..anyone hear of this??

It's gotta be Talbot+Klein if we're getting 16.
Gotta be.
I'm not trying to crap on Cam, but goalies just don't return a lot of value. Cory Schneider is one of the best goalies in the NHL, I don't see Talbot having near that value; and you still could make an argument the Devils should have kept the pick and just took Bo Horvat instead.
IMO, #16 for Talbot is perfect compensation. No other parts involved.
Not only do I view Talbot as comparable to Schneider at the time that he was traded, but Talbot is the best goalie available on the market this year. Short supply for quality goalies, and a cheaply signed quality goalie available... I think he can easily get the #16.
Check out that big post I had.Staal for Draisaitl
Girardi for Reinhart
Klein for Bennett
2-3-4 picks of the 2014 draft.
The question is, how do we get the #1 overall?
Time to channel my inner Bern!
Talbot to Oilers for the 16 o/a.
Stepan, Hagelin, and 16 o/a to Buffalo for the 2nd o/a (due to the grumblings he may go back to BU and the Sabres fear he pulls a Hayes).
Draft Eichel.
Sign Condra and Tikhonov.
Trade glass for a late round pick.
Re-sign Sheppard.
Nash - Eichel - Miller
Kreider - Brassard- Zucc
Condra - Hayes - Tikhonov
Sheppard - Moore - Fast
Lindberg
Now back to reality.
I'm going half Bernie on the trade board.
Beer is funny

Saw an Oilers fan propose this on the main board but what do you guys think?
33rd + 57th + 3rd round pick (Edmonton has 79 and 86 this year) for Talbot + Klein.
Not as enticing as both for #16 overall but pretty similar value I think. If you really wanted to, you can trade back into the 20's with those picks. Talbot for 33rd is really good value to me and a 2nd + 3rd for Klein is also good value. Again, I'd push for 16 for both assuming we don't steal the 16th for Talbot straight up but that's another interesting proposal.
Who are we replacing Klein with?
Thats definitely not a bad deal though, adding 3 decent draft picks in the first 3 rounds in a deep draft would be pretty nice.
Talbot and Klein for 16th and Yakupov? Anyone?
