Rumor: 2022-2022 Trade Rumors and Free Agency Part 14: Sakic goes back to bed

[Bender]

The Islanders have been extremely quiet so far. I wonder what's the plan there for the next 24 hrs. Their team is super old and is going to miss the playoffs, not a good combo.

Matt Barzal is one guy I would move Byram for, personally.

Dubas is so underwhelming

He's probably the one guy they won't trade

Be hilarious if someone claimed Sateri right now.

Canadiens have plenty of space and can use some goalie depth...

 

[Gumballhead]

Oh that name’s so fun to say. Or sing!

... and then trade him to the Leafs for a 3rd

Christ, the Crouse obsession on this board is something else There isn't even any evidence to suggest he's available -- actually, I think all reports have said the opposite...that Arizona wants to keep him.

I am not opposed to Crouse or Bertuzzi, but these two blokes are the perfect example of inflated or even hyper-inflated stats because they can log heavy minutes on really bad teams. Because of the season they are having, I guess these GMs will overrate their value to maximum the amount of return before they head back down to earth. Now Rakell might not be better than either of them, but he's a player who would probably get better if he's allowed to go to a better team. I don't think he fills any holes for us though except added depth (if you consider that important).

Too damn quiet today. Seems like everyone is just waiting for deadline day to make their next move.

They’re jealous of our f***ing river, the bastards.

Can we have river based playoffs avatars?

That tweet says nothing.

Just more Avs-Copp smoke, but lots of other teams mentioned.

Today's Poem:

Jimothy Timothy,
You're not the player we hoped you'd be.
When you get traded at the deadline,
It'll be because of your stat line.
Your future here will not be saved,
And on the Cup, your name not engraved.

Sounds like a bidding war for Copp. Has Sakic ever won one of those? Do we even want him to?

4th line of Helm-Sturm-LOC is fine heading in the playoffs. I'm good without Clutterbuck.

Get one or preferably two top nine guys. Two is probably unlikely but just get one who can actually make a positive impact.

Him, Dobson or Sorokin.

Crouse + Clutterbuck.

We knocking heads off.

I sure as hell don’t want to win a bidding war for Copp. But that’s just me.

Probably something to do with the AE/100 stuff.

We may not want that bidding war right now but if Kadri is out in the playoffs for any reason, we're gonna wish Sakic had won that bidding war.

It is the Avs’ ultimate negotiation trump card, and the reason we keep luring all these top end players!

All this smoke around Andrew Copp.

Nobody knew we were acquiring Devon Toews, or Andrei Burakovsky, or Brandon Saad, or Josh Manson, or Nico Sturm.

Copp to the Avs ain't happening. Start looking at names nobody is talking about. Those are Joe's targets.
