[KlefDown]

why would either team do this?
if you made this proposal because of what Klefbom said re: Hall trade, then please just stop.

 

[lindholmie]

nah. the ducks have lindholm, fowler, depres, theodore and larsson on the left side.

 

[Homesick]

nah. the ducks have lindholm, fowler, depres, theodore and larsson on the left side.

among other reasons.
Klefbom can't keep healthy and Fayne is garbage

Did I miss something ? What did Klefbom say when Hall was traded ?

Not after the proposed trade occurs...but I agree this doesn't make much sense for Anaheim.

Not interested in trading Vatanen to the Oilers and want nothing to do with Fayne.

 

[Slatsmsg]

Wouldn't want to move Klef but how does this help the Ducks?? Weird proposal

 

[TopShelfWaterBottle]

No thanks from ANA

 

[cbzblaze]

No reason for the ducks to just help out the oilers, cause that's all this trade accomplishes.

Called him out for not play big. But I think something had to have been mis-translated. Littler, inferior teams?

And this addresses our need for a 1st line LW how exactly?

All this does is help EDMs weak RD side and lack of a PP QB, an area we're not particularly strong in either.

Anaheim doesn't need Klef, They're already set on the left side. Vats isn't available and Fayne is garbage no way does Anaheim do this. Even if Vats were available i doubt that he gets moved to a Western Conference team the same with Fowler.

Id imagine it was, how is it that he interviews so well in English but all of a sudden he's full of himself....doesn't make sense.



As for the actual topic. Edmonton loses the better dman, while gaining, while both good dmen, 2 lesser dmen. Oilers need more high end not more quantity, however good that quantity is. ANH become super LHD heavy by doing this as well unless they trade Fowler for a RHD. Doesn't really make sense for either team IMO.

I want the same pills what you are eating if it makes minnesotas players look better

 

[Hagged]

Puljujarvi for Vatanen. Keep it simple, value for value, low cap hit to low cap hit. Edmonton needs defense, Anaheim offense.

 

[Duck Off]

No way in hell does Anaheim do this.

Vatanen isn't getting traded. Not after his extension, and the way it was announced to fans. I personally think he's more expendable than Fowler, but clearly Murray feels differently.

Puljujarvi is a RW Anaheim already has tons of those. BM is seeking a LW for Fowler or possibly Vatanen in this instance. I doubt Anaheim does this.

Pass. We're a win now team. I don't even rate Pul.

Just curious...has GMBM ever said the Ducks are a "win now" team or is that just a fan fiction? I think if he were asked he would say that his goal is to be competitive every year.

Not sure if he's ever said it, but if you read between the lines, it most certainly appears he views us that way.

You don't hire Carlyle to replace Boudreau if you're a "retooling" or "rebuilding" team. You don't pass on a young promising candidate in Green either. It's pretty clear that he thinks Carlyle will be better at coaching in the playoffs.

The day he starts trading top prospects and #1 picks for aging veterans is the day I'll believe that he is in "win now" mode.

That's the sign of a stupid GM, not the sign you're a team in win now mode.

what are the signs that a team is in "win now" mode then? It can't possibly be that their 3 highest paid players are 31-32 years old because that would mean 1/2 the league is in "win now" mode. So what signs should I be looking for?

I'm almost certain that this is insane.
