I'd do it for:

Jones + Wilson + (11th or Forsberg)

Sounds about right for #1 C. Blue chip prospect, red chip prospect, and a top-6 forward.

 

[bleedgreen]

Lol! Really you all think that an hypothetical EStall trade would land us only #11 wilson and ekholm??? Jesus....

Everyone has given different options so "you all" doesn't really apply. When you're moving a 9 million dollar player you can't expect all you want. We've said Josi over ekholm, and forsberg over Wilson.

 

[nobuddy]

I'd do somersaults if we got Seth Jones on this team. He is my favorite. Throw in Wilson and 11 and I don't say no.

Clearly everyone has his opinions, but we are trading a #1 center, should i say the franchise center and captain of the team for that package??? Wilson? Ekholm?? C'mon

 

[bleedgreen]

I'd love jones. And you'd think sometching would have to give on the back end for them, but I just can't see them giving him up!

Yeah I'd take that too. If we own what we are and say we're ready for a new direction, that's the starting point right there. Build around d, goaltending and well rounded offense and in a couple of years we can be ....Nashville!

At least we'd be a playoff threat yearly.

Just saying one person made that offer, others have made much better ones. We're considering the better ones.

Yeah, Jones is great.

Thinking about it more I might even do it for just:

Jones +Wilson + Stalberg

I like Wilson over Forsberg.

 

[Incubajerks]

Sure, but that offer scared the hell out of me

Luckily we aren't in charge of anything.

As for talking about jones. If we got jones he would likely be the central piece and I doubt we'd also get a first and a good player. Maybe jones and a pick. He's potentially the dman of his time which is why they aren't gonna trade him for staal in the first place, and if they did why they aren't gonna throw in much more. Hard to argue really.

 

[Unsustainable]

Jones, Wilson, 11th for Eric would work.

Hearing Kesler to Anaheim is done. Awaiting details...

So, that ordeal is over

 

[Brock Anton]

For Bonino, Sbisa and #24.

Ouch.

 

[DougieSmash]

Bonino, Sbisa and 24th... Meh for canucks.

 

[Unsustainable]

Anaheim will trade Bonino, Sbisa plus 24th overall pick and teams will swap third-rounders once deal goes through

 

[SeaBasstian]

Stalberg shouldn't be involved in anything with Nashville. and no way we pull Jones from them either.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

I actually don't think that's too terrible a return for a guy that was on his way out anyway. Bonino's a good 2nd line center (or will be), Sbisa's still got something to prove, and the 1st rounder is a 1st rounder. Obviously not what it would've been two years ago, but quite frankly Kesler isn't what he was two years ago.

Solid move for both teams.

 

[Joe McGrath]

I can't believe they didn't get the 10th out of them.

 

[nobuddy]

Bonino is a very good player who outscored Kesler on his own last season, is younger, and makes less money.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Considering Kesler had all the leverage, that isn't a horrible return.

 

[Joe McGrath]

Bonino is a very good player who outscored Kesler on his own last season, is younger, and makes less money.

I believe he was taking all the important face offs for the Ducks on the playoffs as well.

 

[bleedgreen]

Vancouver do pretty well, not sure they'd have been better off with other possible pieces other than the ten spot. Wonder what the St. Louis offer is though. Maybe we'll see with spezza.

Told the Coyotes are strongly considering buying out Mike Ribeiro. The veteran forward is under contract through 2016-2017. Not official.

 

[nobuddy]

Can't stand Ribeiro.

 

[bleedgreen]

Ribeiro? By the yotes already? That's nuts. Ufa is such a mess. Can't wait to watch the bolland train wreck.

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

While I'm fully aware Kesler isn't the 40 goal, Selke caliber center he used to be anymore, I'm still shocked he couldn't yield the 10th.

Also, Ribeiro is probably the only person on the planet, I wouldn't let use my phone if he knocked on my door late at nite. Dude gives me the free willies.
