Speculation: GMs Saving Trades for Tonight

[Bond]

A lot of trades already went down. I think the draft will be pretty quiet unless someone in the top 15 misses the kid they want and makes a trade

 

[CanMerc]

Would be stupid to wait…I’d announce as soon as it was done

 

[Malkinstheman]

Forward group in FA is pretty stacked this year. Trades wont happen until teams are left hanging and arent able to get what they wanted for free

 

[Jared Dunn]

They do not care about us and know we will continue to gleefully eat whatever slop we are fed

 

[dtown77]

Leafs haven't done anything and need a bunch of changes. I expect some trade by them today

I expect the Toronto Groundhogs to run it back

 

[themelkman]

the draft is never as exciting as people want it to be

 

[HockeyVirus]

I expect the Toronto Groundhogs to run it back

They are letting almost all their UFA forwards walk to use the money on defense. There will be moves

 

[Satan]

there are some gm`s trading picks - that;s what they call "amuse bouche"" in fine dining

 

[Mrfenn92]

Cam Atkinson to Chicago with a pick. Then he gets a buyout to hit the open market

If a mod can help me?
I got a flaming warning for calling myself a dumb a** for this sweet prediction of mine that was wrong

Trust me I don’t have confidence issues

You consummate a trade when you can. If you wait, things can change, and you run the risk of your deal going poof, while news of the filed trade leaks, making you look dumb, and pissing off the players involved unnecessarily.

Oddly quiet this last hour or two, I hope this isn't a dud with trades like last year

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Oddly quiet this last hour or two, I hope this isn't a dud with trades like last year

Sadly, its more often a dud then exciting in recent years

We will be lucky to get even a single trade at this point

 

[HarrySPlinkett]

PURELY SPECULATION - but there wasnt the typical flood of trades last night before the draft. Me thinks all the GMs have stashed trades up their sleeve to put a show on today/tonite at the SPHERE for all us fans because we deserve it


we've been hockey starved since the cup was lifted on Monday nite - but we will get a show tonite for sure

Takes pressure to make a diamond - some of the rumoured packages that have been turned down are enormous.

If these teams really want to trade up, they’ve gotta pay through the nose.

 

[Jeune Poulet]

Especially with the Draft selection show being a complete dud as well. LOL
This league... I tell you.

Really? Can’t say I watch other sports so I’m curious… is it that much more entertaining in other leagues? Are players wearing disguises, doing rap battles or somethin’?
