Proposal: Edler to Dallas

[Canuck Luck]

With Dallas likely moving on from all 3 of their UFA d-men, they only have 2 veteran d-men left. 1 being a #6-7 in Jordie Benn.

To Dallas:
Alex Edler

to Vancouver:
Esa Lindell
2017 1st round pick
conditional 3rd round pick if the Stars make it to conf finals, becomes a 2nd if they make it to the finals.

Canucks then can re-sign Hamhuis

I'd honestly rather keep Lindell.

 

[Mr Misty]

This needs to be done again? Really can't move Lindell either.

 

[Icebreakers]

Edler most underrated dman on hf.

Not enough coming to Vancouver, quality d-men are high in demand.

 

[Leon Draisaitl]

Honka and a 3rd or Nichushkin and a 2nd are good deals for both teams IMO

It's not that I dislike Edler or don't think he's a great dmen, but I'd prefer the cost controlled left handed offensive dmen with size. I know it's kind of like the whole mystery box scenario, just with Benn and Seguin extensions in the near future, on top of other raises, I think it'd be better long term to stick with Lindell. I'd rather move Honka seeing as the Stars already have a great right handed offensive dmen in Klingberg. Even in that case, if they hold onto Honka and he develops well, They could get a killing for him on the trade market.

Canucks go full rebuild

Edler+Tanev to Dallas for Lindell Honka Nuke and a pick

.....Yess im Joking, Just trying to get rid of ridiculous ideas that are bound to pop up

 

[Noodletoro]

Absolutely awful. Good job.

Im not totes against this if we lose out on the Lucic Erikson sweetstakes

 

[TrillMike]

I'm not moving Lindell if I'm Nill. I'd love to add Edler, but not at the price of Lindell. The whole Dallas and Vancouver ownership feud probably prevents this from happening.

Oh if we loose out on every UFA, I wouldnt either, But if you pulled off a deal like this you would want to have a deal in place to move the Sedins, Say at 50% retained to a team like Detroit who just lost out on Stammer.

 

[coldhands]

Probably Seguin for Edler at the rate defenseman are going.

(kidding)

 

[Canadian Canuck]

No way

 

[nuckfan insk]

Honka and a first in 2017

 

[LordJamieBenn]

Honka and a first in 2017

This is a little better but it's still not something I'd really want to do. I just don't see Van and Dal being good trade partners.

Worth Jamie Benn straight up.

Do Stars fans really prefer Lindell over Honka?

Honka's better (I'm with Farkas: better at both ends no less) but because Dallas lost to St. Louis, the narrative has been "NEEDS MOAR SIZE" despite the fact that Seguin's speed and skill is what was missed the most. Granted, Lindell is solid and definitely better than his performance at Worlds showed. I'm ecstatic we have both. But if we absolutely had to trade one, I'd trade Lindell. Big left handed puck moving defensemen are much easier to find than lightning quick right handed puck rushers.

I disagree, a top prospect and first round pick would be a great return for us.

Hamuis sounds pretty jaded right now

 

[Blueangel1891]

Taylor Hall just got traded for ****ing Adam Larsson

Jamie Benn or nothing

I think its a case of LH vs RH. In my eyes they are both real solid. Maybe a slight edge to Honka due to age but I see them as similar in value

 

[WhatWhat]

Also this has been beaten to death. I don't agree with Vancouver continuing this attempt at being competitive, but as long as they are I would assume Edler is simply not available because trading him makes them worse today and they still want to compete

As much as i would love that theres no way Dallas would do that
