If you could make a realistic trade who would you bring in?

[Hen Kolland]

Sounds like Vince Dunn could be on the block. That’s something if I’m the wings I check in on. Only 24 years old. Maybe STL would take Nemeth @ 50% retained + one of our later 2nd round picks for him. He could really help our blue line on the left side for the now and future.

Wouldn't be the first time we've taken on St. Louis' discarded young talent as a reclamation project.

 

[Hatter of the Beach]

Depending on how the next few months go, Mantha for Nuge (provided he'd extend)

 

[RedWingzz]

Cholowski and a conditional 2nd (the Oilers or Rangers 2nd, you make the conditional pick dependant on who finishes where) to the Blues for Vince Dunn

I would do it for sure. Not sure that STL would though

I'd do that, but STL probably not. Word is they want a 1st. Nope, no way.

 

[MBH]

Man, the Avs are going to have some big choices to make on the defense, no?

Yep, they most likely have to make a decision between Girardi and Toews.

Expansion draft protected:
1. RD Johnson (NMC)
2. RD Makar
3. LD Girardi or LD Toews
---------------------
Safe:
4. LD Byram
5. RD Timmins
--------------
Exempt
6. LD Girardi or LD Toews
7. LD Graves

Nice 7 guys to have and still have great Top6 after the expansion.

 

[WingsToPick4th]

Just saw this same rumour.

Think STL would be interested in DeKeyser, get their "bouwmeester" to replace Bouwmeester.

They have enough skill on the defence, thanks to Krug, Parayko, Faulk and could let Dunn walk.

 

[William Rusco]

Just saw a rumor that Philly and New Jersey are interested in DeKeyser.

Philly has only about $45,000 in cap space. Maybe a mid 6C plus a 2nd or 3rd for DeKeyser with 50% retained?

New Jersy with $6,000,000+ in cap space. Maybe a Mid 6C streight up?

 

[RedMenace]

Man, think SFY would unload DeKeyser then trade a pick+tweener/prospect for Dunn?

Dunn and Hronek might be a good pairing...

Helm + Dekeyser for Zajac + ?

dekeyser for Ghostibiere + ?

 

[RedMenace]

Sorry if I missed anyone posting this before, and please bear with me, but....

... since Mantha was a Holland pick, and we need a top 2 C desperately, does anyone think something could be structured around Mantha + 2021 1st for Draisaitl?

I mean, most people seem to be down on the upcoming draft, so the 1st might not be worth as much as other years, and Draisaitl would immediately fill a gaping hole in the lineup.

Also, Greiss and Seider. Start a German Mafia.

 

[4thline]

Outsider- what would be the cost on a 50% retained Namestnikov?

the oilers wouldn’t even trade Drai for Larkin + 1st + seider/Raymond.

depends on the context imo. Detroit’s biggest organizational needs are at Center and LD so picks/prospects that could help fill that void would be desirable.

However, Namestnikov was an Yzerman guy in Tampa and now brought in to help “steady the ship” in Detroit so I don’t really see Yzerman moving him. In addition, he is under contract for next season while we have several other forwards as pending UFAs.

objectively his value in a trade isn’t that high but I have a tough time seeing Yzerman ship him out barring an offer that’s too good to be true.

Thanks.

I missed the Yzerman connection completely.

For the context from the other side I see him as a perfect fit for the leafs. Could play anywhere in our top 9, versatile, fiesty, decently skilled... and with retention would come in 1m. He heads my list of 2m or less forwards with an extra year on their deal. The others are decent depth pieces but Namestnikov has the potential to be an impactful add.

Maybe this is me being greedy, but if a team viewed it as a Barclay Goodrow/Blake Coleman type fit Im sure Yzerman would have to be open minded. Otherwise I just don't see Yzerman sending him out ya know?

 

[RedMenace]

Okay, I can understand the sentiment behind that, though their cap situation isn't great.

Just spitballing.

Yup. And while I have trouble seeing Coleman value, I don't think Goodrow type would be out of the question

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, signs 6 year extension 7.5 million per.


Thoughts? Real, not real?

 

[cupcrazyman]

Just do what the Leafs did.Aquire a few cap dumps & add some extra draft picks the next few years.

 

[Shultzyfeelinirie25]

Watching the compete level of this team is what pisses me off its one thing if our guys are playing hard and digging for pucks and battles but they're not. At this point I hope Stevie would be willing to move anyone on the team besides Bert I'm not even kidding and I feel like he will

 

[Shultzyfeelinirie25]

If we could move some pieces like Martha, Larkin, hronek, I would listen to all offers

 

[TheMule93]

I'd like to see them under a new coach before we begin trading them away
