Hanifin?
Draisatl for Hanifin is a discussion. RNH is not close.
If the Canes were willing to part with Hanifin they would deal with Colorado directly.
Hanifin?
If Hanafin is the type of piece Sakic is hoping for, I don't see a trade happening at all.
Maybe Fleury.
So Avs are a budget team and can't afford Barrie. Thus they will trade him for Ryan Nugent-Hopkins ($6M salary).
Stauffer logic.
How about a three way deal (some parts come from Cult of Hockey)
Top 5 protected 1st round pick 2017 (edm)
Benoit Pouliot
Cam Fowler
3nd round pick (edm)
Tyson Barrie

If he was heading into UFA shortly, maybe that could happen. He's got three RFA years left. If an acquiring team can't get him signed long term in that time, that's their problem.
RNH is not someone they would want with his injury history
Please leave us out of this. These rumors involving Pouliot to the Ducks are like that stank smell coming from the downstairs bathroom that Grandpa uses and you just can't get rid of it no matter how hard you try.
If we're making a deal with EDM, then I'd rather move Fowler for RNH in a deal that somehow balances out the salaries with picks and other pieces.
Bob posted this several weeks ago.
At what point is it considered stale? Do we take this into the following season before we drop this?

No thanks.
Yeah this is so not happening, Maybe something around Pouliot would've gotten you Vatanen no way does it get you Fowler. This is pretty bad for Anaheim and no way does Bob Murray accept this.
I wouldn't trade either RNH or Drai this year. That would leave us one injury away from Letestu centering our 2nd line, which kills the season. Our D should be a lot better this year and they are all so young still. Let's see how guys like klefbom, Larsson, Nurse & Davidson develop this year and evaluate from there. I'd try to sign a RHD depth guy (gryba) and call it a day.
I suspect a lot of teams (wild, preds) will make moves this trade deadline to position themselves for the expansion draft. That could be the opportunity to pick up a good player for a good price. It's time to be patient, and evaluate what we really have.
Getting a high first + Pouliot is bad for Fowler? Would another team offer a first for him? I guess I am bit higher on Pouliot than you.. I think he is on a decent contract $4 Million AAV for three more years. Not bad for a 2nd line winger.
isnt he almost 30 and has never scored 40 points?

I still like:
To Winnipeg: Matt Duchene
To Edmonton: Tyson Barrie
To Colorado: Ryan Nugent Hopkins and Jacob Trouba
Duchene>RNH
but
Trouba>Barrie... the "in a vacuum" difference is still not enough for the Avs, but when considering the market for young RHD with high ceilings, as well as Roy's love for toughness and grit, I think it makes sense for all parties.
The oilers have apparently offered RNH for Barrie, so, makes sense there...
The Jets get an all world type Center, and having Duchene, Schief and Little down the middle should make up for the loss of Trouba (look at the D the pens just won the cup with....)
