Proposal: Free agency edition Trade Rumours/Proposals [MOD - Stay on Topic] 5

[Ouroboros]

Meh, probably close in value at this point. Perron's skating is an issue but he's much better defensively than Tarasenko.

Looks like Yzerman gave up another pick to dump Fabbri in order to facilitate this signing. Interesting.

You're missing the part where we need to assume 1-3 years of development for that talent to come in. Missing the next 2 years leaves us with another gap in the rotation we would need to otherwise fill through trades

No I'm not missing that.

Yakemchuk + McGroarty is going with the assumption they'll start contributing in 2-3 years (maybe sooner for McGroarty).

Using our 1st next year adds another 2-3 years beyond that of waiting. I'd rather get more immediate talent coming through the pipeline in the form of McGroarty then using our next 1st. Hell, we'd be lucky to draft a talent like McGroarty with our next 1st assuming we're in the wildcard picture.

I would do 2nd+Ostapchuk for McGroarty, but I don't think the Jets take that.

I’d rather greig
And they might even prefer that.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

I want to hang on to Greig because he seems to have that dog in him. The slapper was awesome, but what really won me over was him targeting and leveling DeBrincat the first time they played them. He understands the game imo and will be one of those line walkers you love on your team but hate to play against.

 

[Wallet Inspector]

Greig stands a much better chance at becoming a top 6 player than Ostaphuk IMO.

I'm surprised his name is even being mentioned.

 

[Erik Alfredsson]

I'm surprised his name is even being mentioned.

Agreed. He's not quite untouchable, but he's definitely one of those guys that isn't trade bait and you don't let go unless a team is willing to massively overpay.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

I'm surprised his name is even being mentioned.

Ya I think he's a keeper. We just saw the Panthers win and they have some rats on that team. They have like 3 or 4 guys that'll spear you in the back of the leg and act like nothing happened, then draw a penalty and laugh at you.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

I like Ostapchuk but Rutger would be an Ottawa Senator right now if Ostapchuk was the centrepiece Winnipeg wanted. It’s not even debatable.

 

[Hale The Villain]

Biggest need for this team right now is a bottom pairing D who can play either side.

JBD is ideally the 7th D and Hamonic shouldn't see ice unless several D are injured.

At the same time Kleven is a rookie with 9 games of NHL experience. Behind him at LD there's Filip Roos and Jeremy Davies, and I don't know if either are capable of playing even limited minutes.

Would be nice to have some insurance on both sides, not just RD, especially considering how injury prone Chabot has been recently.

 

[NyQuil]

If a guy doesn’t want to play in Winnipeg, do we really think of ourselves as an attractive market to this guy?

 

[Masked]

I've (just) noticed that absolutely no one has mentioned Kubalik at all. No rumours, no mentions, no interest, no interviews.

Feels pretty good i guess. Prolly not for him, but for me I mean.

Has there been a more forgettable Senator?

Yes, but I've forgotten who.

Florida won because of their goalie and selke #1C.

 

[SpezDispenser]

Tarasenko to the Wings for not a lot more than Perron. Let the rage ensue!

Meh

 

[HSF]

easily would trade ostapchuk

zero chance they trade Greig

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Lol, ya okay. Sorry, but that's dumb.

 

[Micklebot]

He wants out because they won't guarantee him playing time (allegedly) so presumably anywhere offering up overtime is where he'd like to be.

 

[Tuna99]

I'm surprised his name is even being mentioned.

Greig + for Broberg?

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Greig + for Broberg?

Edmonton fans and management appear to be penciling him in for top 4 duty this year after his showing in the playoffs. No way he'll be made available imo.

 

[NyQuil]

I remember when Heatley was complaining about his “deployment”.

I think it’s just a more acceptable excuse than “I want to do what Adam Fox did”.

I think he will shockingly go to a team in a market he likes regardless of the ice time.

Maybe I’m just cynical.

 

[NyQuil]

Yes, but I've forgotten who.

The correct answer is Chris Tierney.

I mean, Winnipeg could certainly offer to guarantee him a spot on the roster if he signs and find out if he's being honest.

 

[HSF]

Greig can be our bennett

McGoarty is exactly the type of player the sens would want. He is a bull

There’s a certain degree of entitlement there that I’m not exactly comfortable with either.
