Speculation: 2015 Trade Deadline Thread II (Deadline: 3/2 3PM EST)

[major major]

I agree. If Cam doesn't have to carry the puck into the o-zone, and if he doesn't have to play a cycle game is where Cam is best. He needs a lot of open ice. Once the D confronts him inside the blue line more often than not the puck is going the other way.

I hate to trade him or give up on him because he does have a good shot when the situation is right for him.

I'd think Cam is one of the better players on this team when it comes to zone entries.

Only if he has space. He is also predictable to loop back when he does have space and wait for the trailer to pass to. Once in a while he will try to take it to the net.

I'm not trying to bash the guy and he is our best option at right wing, so unless we have someone coming back or able to step into his role, trading him is another crapshoot.

Well I could be wrong but I think he curls back and connects with the trailer with more success than most of our players do with their dump and chase.

I may be being too critical of him. I guess I would like for him to be something he isn't.

Glencross traded for 2015 2nd and 2015 3rd. Prices remain sky high.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Vermette traded to Chicago

CBJ is "hottest celebutante" right now? Not yet? Tomorrow?

Or do people seem to overvalue draft picks and the "potential" of prospects

every player in the league was once one of those prospects with "potential"

Portly has reported that Atkinson has tried to sign an extension in recent weeks

I pray for him. I like both Cam and Matty, they are like my children

 

[db2011]

My guess is Cam was asking for too much if they are looking to trade him after they had discussions with him on a new contract.

As an RFA, probably pretty easy to ask for too much from this FO

 

[WannabeFinn]

Yandle to the Rags..

 

[Fro]

sounds like Girardi ++ going back to ARI

 

[niflheim]

Yandle to the Rags..

To Arizona all NYR 1 st rounds before 2025? ( sorry, joke) return must be massive. Confirmed?

A month ago I was impressed by the calm manner in which the FO seemed to be approaching this trade deadline. Word was no big moves, nothing dramatic. Maybe a little fine tuning. And that seemed consistent with a young team but a mature Front Office that was dedicated to building a strong foundation the right way, one brick at a time.

Now, Wiz is up to be traded, Letestu, Cam, Anisimov, "any d man not named Murray of Savard" ....... etc. Now it seems like the FO is in a panic mode, grasping for anything and everything that is "different".. The franchise looks like a car being driven by a drunk down a winding mountain road. Not at all impressed by the change in tone of the FO.

To be fair, we don't know how much of that is baseless speculation.

And have any of those trades actually happened?

 

[zelbell]

Sounds like Duclair, 1st +++++ with Arizona retaining 50% of Yandle's salary

[WannabeFinn]

50%... 50% of Yandle's salary.. what the ****

 

[MAHJ71]

50%... 50% of Yandle's salary.. what the ****

Thats what I was thinking...

 

[Mayor Bee]

50%... 50% of Yandle's salary.. what the ****

Probably to get it pushed from a 2nd-rounder to a 1st, or something.

 

[Fro]
