Rumor: David Jiricek available

[AlainVigneaultsGum]

Meanwhile...



Hedger (beat writer for the Columbus Dispatch for those who don't know) isn't exactly known for his ironclad credibility here, but then again, neither is Seravalli. So...

Aren't GMs usually in the building when their teams are playing?

 

[Indy18]

Funny what claiming a guy off waivers can do for you, eh?

I...still...can't...believe...we...got...him...for...free

Yeah, well, that's Hedger for you. Bless his heart, he tries.

Stopped reading here. If you're going to pontificate on a subject, familiarize yourself with it first. He has very explicitly not asked to be traded. Multiple reporters have been very, very clear on this point.

and if you are going to correct someone, first sharpen your critical reading skills.

i said he is looking to be traded not asking. his agent is more than sophisticated enough to coach him to get what he wants while maintaining deniability. but if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck it is usually a duck even if it claims to be a swan. are you his agent maybe? you are sure doing a lot of gatekeeping for him in this thread.

Dach is a young, big, right shot C who will certainly play the 2C role and be good. Barron is a useful D man, who is young with room to grow.

The jackets have a roster full of kids, so let's trade away a veteran leader for more kids.

Your logical fallacy is ambiguity

You used a double meaning or ambiguity of language to mislead or misrepresent the truth.

Hearing PIT is heavily involved but have no idea why or how.

looking for something is not the same as asking for something. don't believe me? look it up.

 

[GoJackets1]

Seravalli on one side and Hedger on the other is a hell of a time. I can’t believe I’m saying this but at this moment I believe Hedger.

I don’t disagree. Imo this would be a fair value trade. Columbus should be trying to return a younger top 2 C or younger top four D in anything coming back. Likely the forward is what comes back. So Dach would be fair return. Zegras might be the guy who actually comes back though.

Okay, fine, I'll try playing along.

What he's known to be looking for is ice time. He's got that in the AHL right now and seems just fine.

RHD with size, and some of his weaknesses can be worked on. Could be a fun project.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

What prospects does Pitt even have to do a 1 for 1 for Jiricek besides Yager ?

In a vacuum sure, but not after what happened this off-season.

Just mean like they have Letang and EK blocking him and have no assets CBJ wants.

Dach isn't a 2C. It's also not a mandatory requirement when they have a Monahan holding down 1C and Fantilli figuring things out at the NHL level and Lindstrom on the way

Yager is in winnepeg now

Explain please. Not seeing the tangent.

A slightly more credible voice on the matter:

 

[Funk21]

Jiricek for Shane Wright

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Have you seen the on ice product in Pittsburgh this year?

A slightly more credible voice on the matter:

That typo could mean anything!

 

[Fatass]

A slightly more credible voice on the matter:

Sounds imminent. Several teams making offers and Columbus doing their best to maximize the return. Who is that disgruntled Pittsburgh young guy they just got from Winnipeg? He’s in the same boat as Juricek and thinks he should be in the nhl, right? Maybe the return might be that Pittsburgh guy + a pick?

 

[Viqsi]

You laugh, but...

Sounds imminent.

Columbus's near franchise-life-long beat writer: "Doesn't seem like anything's imminent".
This guy: "Something's imminent!"

It's Opposite Day Every Day here at Trade Rumors & Free Agency!

 

[Fatass]

Who would Columbus prefer between Shane Wright and Trevor Zegras?
