Offseason Trade Targets

[Oddbob]

Part of it is that he does scouting, knows scouts, knows other people who scouts/scouted for other teams. It's a combo of talk in the community and knowing that certain teams are looking at or requesting scouting info on certain players.

For what it's worth, it's not the first time in the last year or so he's brought up Seider.

Yeah, so he hears talk, but how much do scouts really know what their GM is actually going to do? Can't see many GMs fully telling the scouts on their own teams what moves they are making.

Misa and 2oa is probably my opening ask for Ed. You'd have to go quite a bit north of that for mo.

True, I'm not really familiar enough with what they have to even guess what that would be. But yeah doubt that would be on the table, giving up Seider on our end and what it would cost on SJ's end. Edvinsson makes a lot more sense for both sides.

If we are trading Mo, Yzerman and all in the Wing house need to be cleared out and complete tear down. Have no desire to give Steve a 2nd shot over a full tear down and there is no other option if Seider is really on the move.

Yeah I'm with you, I've got no appetite to for going down to the studs.

Sigh, the press conference from Steve had me with some hope for this summer, cause he talked differently than past years, then Dylan asked out and I am super bummed about the team for next season and what direction we are going. Even if we get futures, they aren't close to being a difference maker.

If Nemec is a top 4 guy for a long time that is great value for Calgary. Of all the crazy trades today they didn't give up a ton. Those picks are likely mid 20's in the 1st round and if not they have protection.

If San Jose was in on Byram, I would 100% see what they'd be willing to kick out for Ed.

You'll see those picks moving to New Jersey in a ~year.

For Quinn Hughes.

Think that Guerin plan is gonna fail at Minnesota, and the brothers will join.

It's just common sense. Two of them are already at same place, it's much harder for them to transfer in multiple trades, than at one.

Also this signal letting Nemec go, is a signal that the Devils "know" that "some defenceman" is gonna join them in the next calendar year.

And it's the worlds smallest surprise who is it gonna be.

Yeah the fact it's not their own picks makes all the difference. Solid upside move, even though I have zero faith in Calgary's rebuild.

Misa and 2oa is probably my opening ask for Ed. You'd have to go quite a bit north of that for mo.

If San Jose was crazy enough to give me both Misa and 2oa, I would pack Edvinsson's bags and drive him to the airport.

Petes had this to say in a trade thread:


Doubt it's on the table but an interesting thought exercise. What would it take from SJ for any of you to consider a nuclear bomb like that?

It would start at Misa and the 2nd OA for me. Probably more tbh.

Celebrini+Misa+#2OA

Celebrini+Misa+#2OA

C'mon now. Celebrini is hands down the best value in the NHL. He's worth way more than Seider just by himself.

 

[Pavels Dog]

C'mon now. Celebrini is hands down the best value in the NHL. He's worth way more than Seider just by himself.

The point is there's no trade that can realistically be made. Seider was top 5 in Norris voting and you can make a very good argument he was actually the best defenseman in the NHL this season. Entertaining a trade for him simply isn't done unless the overpay is so ridiculous that it almost immediately catapults this team into an extremely exciting direction where we have a superstar 1C to build around. That's literally the only trade that makes sense. And it will never happen, as it should.

 

[Larkin2AA]

Yeah I would officially be off the Yzerman support group if Seider is moved. It would have to be something outrageous.
