Real Kyper's Off-Season Trade Board 1.0: Players to watch this summer

While the Stanley Cup Final begins this week, the off-season has begun for 30 teams across the NHL. With the draft combine going on in Buffalo this week and the draft to follow later in the month, Nick Kypreos introduces his first trade board of the off-season.

Are you on commission?

 

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

Whoa, Detroit looking to move Copp? No way, why?

 

[TheDoldrums]

Kyper is a moron, zero chance Rielly is waiving his NMC for any team. Already been reported as such by a more credible LeBrun

 

[vcanuck]

kypereos just hates reilly and want him off the team.

why is he at the center of the photo as if he's the biggest name on the market..

 

[CanMerc]

Kypreos is an idiot and not a trust worthy source…he just throws a bunch of shit against the wall and hopes something sticks and collects clicks in the process.

 

[hurdemz]

Everyone here is so much smarter than Kypreos

 

[SEALBound]

Hmmmm...so:

Elias Pettersson
Morgan Rielly
Rasmus Andersson
Erik Karlsson
Marco Rossi
Martin Necas
John Gibson
Chris Kreider
Bowen Byram
Jamie Oleksiak
K'Andre Miller
Nicolas Hague
Ivan Barbrashev
Rasmus Ristolainen
Justin Faulk
Andrew Copp
Connor Murphy
Ryan McDonagh
Ondrej Palat
and Dawson Mercer

Can we construct a 20-team trade from this list?

Kypreos knows how to write?

Link us to your hockey blog. We can compare the two of you.

Haven't heard anything about Copp being moved. I don't even mind Kypreos, but he is basically never right about roster moves. Also, Copp is nothing special, so moving him to get better makes sense.

 

[jetsforever]

Funny how it's just some random thoughts on potential players to move and everyone's using this as an excuse to rag on Kyp

 

[More 2004]

Mcdonagh ain't going nowhere. He's gonna get that gourde retirement deal next year.

 

[LOFIN]

I mean had you actually read what he wrote, you would've noticed that Kyper acknowledges that Rielly has no indication of waiving his NMC, and he isn't listed there because something is about to happen.

I would be very careful about calling someone a moron when you yourself show incompetence to even read, or comprehend what you read.

Roadkill is smarter than Kypreos.
Kypreos lives off the legacy of his cup ring, but he did nothing to earn that ring. He got traded to the cup winning NYR in November of that season and accumulated a whopping 8 pts in 46 games. Then played only 3 playoff games and scored zero points…he was a passenger with zero contribution to the team success. He might have had some insider access once, long ago, but I highly doubt anyone still playing or coaching or managing gives him much if any info…most of what he “reports” is either shit he’s throwing out for clicks or info he’s stolen from an actual insider.

It's like you plagiarized this out of the Kypreos hater book. Heard this a million times, but it like you are the one throwing shit on a wall and hoping it sticks. How do you know what sources he has or hasn't? Surely he's more connected than you or anyone here.

Reporters have to report something, whether is 100% true or not. If only true reports were reported, there'd be no news. F**ked up eh?

 

[Zwui21]

Kypreos is losing it.
The Lightning aren't trading their best defensive Dman. Not when they are still trying to get back to being serious contenders and not when JBB already said he hopes McDonagh will be in Tampa past this season. And McDonagh wants to stay in Tampa, so...
I would in fact expect McDonagh to sign a contract extension (starting 26/27) with the Bolts this summer, at a cheaper price.

Agree but JBB has done crazier things. I do think he gets the JBB retirement package though

I listen to Kypreos' show fairly regularly and he's actually fairly credible.

He was always listing guys like Carlo and Coyle as Leafs targets weeks before people knew they were available. He was insistent that Carolina was going to move Rantanen 2 weeks after they acquired him.

He's not Bob McKenzie but he's also not as bad as Dreger and Lebrun.

It's a tradition here on HF. No one is safe. Our basement dwelling HF regulars have better sources than Kyper, Friedman, etc.

It's so funny.

The benchmark is a broken clock you need to be better at

Everyone knew Toronto needed RD and bottom 6 help

It’s not that he identified Toronto’s needs. Everyone knew that. It’s that he was the first person to suggest Coyle and Carlo were available.
