[Recipe Unlimited]

An AHL player for another AHL player

 

[Vinman88]

Garland for Vatrano and a 3rd in 2023

[Bettman Returnz]

Canucks are not trading garland…. Next!

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Boeser for Jack Johnson.

JR knows why JJ hasn't been a good player for years, and it's not because of his play.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Halak for 4th/5th

Chris Drury is on line two.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Lol. Brutal proposal.

Wow, it's almost like you missed the point entirely.

The last time JR made a trade that ended up being actually "good value" for the Penguins was like 2017.

 

[Bettman Returnz]

So clearly most of these are jokes and poking fun at how bad /Benning-like some of Rutherford’s trades were.

Actual players that I could see being moved: Pearson, Boeser/Miller (likely one not both but hey for the right deal you never know), halak, Myers, hamonic, motte, chaisson… clearly some are worth more than others.

It’s pretty common to downplay the intelligence and abilities of someone that was previously within your organization. It’s ok. We knew what you meant.

While he might do a small move before hand, I think he holds off on anything major til the TDL and it will depend on where they are in the standings, but I can see a move to either get another 1st rounder or to improve their current 1st rounder, if there’s someone they really like in the draft.
Hard to say who it would be, that they move out, but JT Miller is the one I keep settling on as most likely.

 

[JustAHabFan]

Garland for Toffoli once he is back from IR.

Just guessing.

The Habs would do it in a heartbeat.

I am not saying they should not ,or should trade Garland but the offers for him are terrible . He is a good player the only down side to him is his size . Tell me if I am wrong.

Put it this way… he plays like he’s 6’3. I’d rather small/fast/tenacious than tall/slow/passive. Not to mention he’s on a decent contract and on the younger side too.

 

[Canuck86]

Miller and Myers for Kapanen and Marino.

Terrible for Vancouver

 

[Peter Griffin]

Terrible for Vancouver

I wouldn’t do it but that’s my prediction.

 

[barrie colts]

Bruins are not doing that..........

Even if Debrusk wants a trade?
Not sure how much more you will get, maybe a 3rd at the deadline or an add-in as part of a large trade.

 

[BatVader]

I wouldn’t do it but that’s my prediction.

Remember… Benning’s gone

 

[Peter Griffin]

Remember… Benning’s gone

Benning would toss in a 2nd.

Boeser for Kapanen

Solely because JR gets a hard on for players he has liked in the past and he has a track record of selling low on his players and paying insane prices on players he likes.

Sounds like a fantasy.

You’re dreaming bro. Pens are adding a + of significance to make that trade pencil for both sides.

 

[McJedi]

I like the Pearson for Debrusk..... Vancouver might need to add a 4th. (29 vs 25 years old)

More like adding something closer to an early 2nd rounder.

 

[BoHorvat 53]

I highly doubt any trade involving a player that is a part of the core will be made until we don’t hire a GM. I do think JR will make some trade, I just don’t see someone of Boeser/Miller’s caliber being moved without bringing in a GM.

 

[Super Hans]

Holy shit there's some daft people on this board.

You guys are missing the point.

I was mocking JR because he constantly makes bad value trades, where he buys insanely high and sells insanely low on players. JR is literally on record saying he doesn't care about the price he pays for a player as long as he gets "his guy", and his track record shows that.

That’s funny. Well then, fire away with lopsided proposals. This is lopsided in a big way.
