OEL On the Move? Part 2

[RABBIT]

Note they are quoting the Canucks beat writer on a radio show. Podkolzin would be insane. If they offer it, BA please just take it

I'd do coke off of RABBIT's ass if we got Podkolzin.

Depends on what else is in the deal, no?

 

[RABBIT]

From Friedman and Johnston, seems to have some certainty here:

This much we know:

Oliver Ekman-Larsson has almost certainly played his last game for the Arizona Coyotes, and he’d like to play his next one for either the Vancouver Canucks or Boston Bruins. Attempts to get the Coyotes captain to expand the list of destinations he’d waive a no-movement clause for have proven unsuccessful. Ekman-Larsson feels he signed with Arizona in good faith and if the Coyotes want to move on, he’s earned the right to use his NMC. So, barring a last-minute change of heart, it’s either going to be Vancouver or Boston. Neither of those teams owns its 2020 first-round pick, which means a potential return likely starts with a 2021 first and includes a prospect, plus another pick.

This isn’t an easy deal for new Arizona general manager Bill Armstrong to maneuver because he’s dealing with a limited market.

The Coyotes like Boston’s prospects more than Vancouver’s, but, on the weekend, it seemed like the Canucks were the more motivated buyer, liking the idea of a long-time left side of Ekman-Larsson and Quinn Hughes. It is believed Arizona asked about Thatcher Demko, which would have been a non-starter.
Armstrong was in St. Louis when the Blues acquired Ryan O’Reilly in a package that included a first-rounder, a second-rounder and Tage Thompson. It would make sense if he tried to model this deal after that one.
Everyone’s grinding away here.

still not the strangest request I’ve received on this forum

Demko is interesting but where the hell does he fit? Our starter next year? And where does it leave Prosvetov?

Yeah, I don't see it. Vancouver is probably better moving him elsewhere. Are we going to flip him? He's definitely better than Hill, but...

 

[Prarievarg]

I'd be very disappointed if the main piece for OEL is Demko.

 

[GhostofTommyBolin]

Demko is a non-starter in trade talks with Arizona, according to Friedman.

 

[RABBIT]

I don’t want a goalie for OEL. I’m so eager to see this get done

Guy was like: “Dude said Podkolzin!”

Dude was like: “Nah I didn’t, Guy...”

And my heart shattered.

Dhaliwal on OEL “last night the canucks were in it.. you’re starting to hear Podkolzin...” #canucks

I did not say Podkolzin was in a deal, if the Coyotes are asking for VAN top prospects, it always comes down to Podkolzin and Hglander. They would not be doing their job if they did not ask for those 2.

Imagine Schmaltz for Ristolainen and then OEL in a deal for Virtanen and futures or DeBrusk and futures.

Im hoping Armstrong pulls out some magic on us. But prepared to be a little disappointed of course.

We would need more from Buffalo. Risto can put up some points but he is a defensive liability

Schmaltz and Raanta for Risto and Thompson then.

Then OEL for DeBrusk, Beecher and other futures.

Beecher and Thompson would revitalize the pool quite a bit. Especially if we get some extra picks.

Ugh my peen.


This is so good

Bruins fans here, as good as OEL is we need scoring and a second line winger, so it makes no sense to trade Debrusk.
I think the offer is more like Vaak, maybe a first and a B prospect like Frederic/Senyshyn or Hughes. I think ZS is NHL ready based on his 4 game tryout. He did not look out of place in either of those games.

 

[RABBIT]

If this deal does happen with the Canucks, it sounds like we could be in this for a couple more days.

I listened to Benning’s press conference today and he said that he has three or four more days to figure some stuff out when it comes to potential acquisitions or signings. Since they don’t have a pick in the first round of the draft tomorrow either, I think this does have the potential to go past the draft.

I think it really will come down to them attempting to get this done before free agency starts, and if nothings done before then, Oliver is likely not going to VAN.

I don't even love DeBrusk, but downgrading while still being reasonably competitive, getting a locker room shakeup, and refilling the prospect pool/organizational depth should be exactly what they try to do.
OEL>Risto
Schmaltz>DeBrusk

But on balance we're in a much better place moving forward recouping extra assets.

 

[WrinkledPossum]

Demko is interesting but where the hell does he fit? Our starter next year? And where does it leave Prosvetov?

My guess is he would be our starter with Hill as backup. Trade Kuemper and Raanta for picks.

 

[DOTS13]

I like the patience on BA so far. He's creating more leverage the longer he waits.
