Spooner would be ideal. It'd be nice to get a pick or decent prospect in the trade too. Nothing too fancy, at least as far as I care.

Fan speculation has been that Ducks would look to either Detroit (Tatar, Mantha, Svech) or Boston (Spooner, Pastrnak) when trading Fowler. Would like Spooner and since Vermette can also play wing, the third line could look like Vermette, Spooner, Rakell. More of a 2(b) line.
I don't think it will be Despres. If Fowler was staying, than I'd say it was possible. However, I don't think that's going to happen so no way are they going to want Bieksa in the top 4.

That was from the 1st concussions. He suffered a concussion right before the playoffs and tried to come back too soon from it.

People seem to forget, Mountor himself said he is NHL ready. Kid wants to shine in the big league. Theodore is already a lock for the team. Its gotta be one of bieksa or stoner going with fowler as well. Or maybe they are trading Cogliano.

Why isn't this deal done already? The Bruins need defense so bad.
Is Fowler terrible or something?
The Subban NMC hadn't kicked in yet. This is what started all the Subban rumors with the analysts saying it is possible he would be traded before the NMC kicked in on his new contract.
We could have gotten Holland for nothing before he resigned, so likely not him. Don't see us trading with the Leafs.

no one is going after stoner because they think theyre improving their bottom pair. He sucks and he makes too much money. Expect a solid return for the team who takes him.

No one ever said that BM would've to eat 50% of Stoners contract. All we said is that BM might have to add say a 2nd round pick on top to move his contract that could entice a few teams NJ included.
No, Ducks weren't willing to trade Fowler until Lindholm was resigned. Insurance measure and didn't want to give Lindholm any more leverage.
They are freeing up cap space to sign two RFAs, so I would say no they can't. Also they are a budget team anyways.

He is a good skater and good mobile defender, He is however afraid to take the hit to make the play and often looses the board battles against bigger guys.

It will take more than a 2nd or mid prospect to move those contracts. See what the Hawks gave up to move one year of Bickel.

Pretty sure seeing that Anaheim needs to shed salary, The only deal for Fowler that makes sense from the Devils would be for Zacha and no way does Shero move Zacha.

Wow you really are living in fantasy land. No way Ana touches that junk offer.
Hawks moving Bickell is different than the Ducks moving Stoner. Bickell is a 4 mil contract that can't hack it in the NHL anymore. Stoner is at least a serviceable bottom pairing defenseman at 3.25 mil. If the Ducks retained some salary, he could be worth what the new team pays him and justify the deal with his play. Bickell can't.
