Value of: RHD available and who needs one?

[Cousin Eddie]

So by your logic it would be Barrie ++ for Draisaitl

Also there is nothing to suggest that it wouldnt be Barrie++ for RNH.

if COL is pushing for Duchene or Landeskog for Trouba but WPG wants MacKinnon, it doesnt mean MacKinnon is on the table. It also doesnt mean it would take Landeskog++ to get Trouba.

Just sayin!

Yes by my logic that is what I'm thinking. I just assume it would be more likely that Edmonton wold be willing to add to Nuge to get Barrie than Edmknton being okay with taking a plus with Barrie and giving up Draisaitl.

Klefbom for Little + Ehlers
Little will be our overpaid 3C therefore Ehlers.

hope you get the point..

This thread is about available RDs and the team that needs them and not really about making outlandish proposals.

Nurse cant even make the oilers defense THE OILERS DEFENSE as opposed to Ehlers who will probably be better than any forward on Oilers team not named McD. Give your head a shake. RNH is overpaid by your previous GM. Little is a better center than RNH and if you don't believe it put it to a poll that does not include those with rose coloured glasses. And for our USA readers colored glasses.

Nurse actually made Oilers defense last year and player A LOT..
He should have been in AHL but got rushed in. There is no reason why he wont be a legit top 4 Dmen in the league when he settles down. Before this past season Nurse was voted by the OHL coaches to be the best shutdown Dman in that league.

Just because Scheifele couldnt permanently crack the Jets lineup 2 yrs past his draft doesnt mean he is garbage.

also lol @ Ehlers being best forward after McDavid.. Shows what you know about the Oilers.. Chances of Nurse being WPG's best LD is greater than Ehlers being 2nd best forward on Oilers.

Also, I am sure that was just a bad counter to the bad proposal for RNH+Nurse.. There is no way Myers nets that return. Obviously the point was missed.

our you saying that RNH is better than Little who is signed for less if so put it to a vote. Just because we don't rush our picks like Shiefs and ruin them, and now have him become our #1 center and Little our #2, your right hes not garbage because we did not rush him.

Nurse is tough but does not drive the play we have Mark Stuart who plays like Nurse who you can have to replace him. We will try to unlearn anything Nurse may have learn from the Oilers.

Would love to have Nurse as the add and have someone offer sheet him next yr and get a 1st for him.

 

[AgeOfBennett]

Wideman is available lol

 

[Znith]

You guys want high end prospects to develop with your young core or solid top-3 guys to bring in leadership and stability??

Thats a good question. Both have their merits on the Leafs roster.

I think Trouba is the ideal guy to target. I'd even be willing to part with Nylander, although most leafs fans will over react and say that's too high a price, just look at the prices for D and the lack of a top RHD in our system.

I'd like to see a Rielly-Trouba pairing in the future, would be amazing.

Haha, as if Nylander was enough. Winnipeg has absolutely zero need for any more forwards. If you want Trouba, you give us Rielly or you can forget it completely. There's no way around it.

Would love to trade Conner for Rielly but their would be some on our board who would not go for it. would love to see a Trouba + Rielly pairing, oh well.

 

[57special]

Due to popular demand, Wild have announced that they have a RHD to give up in trade. Ladies and Gentleman, i give you ....










NATE PROSSER!!!!

Let the bidding begin!

 

[Seedling]

I'd obviously love to have Barrie. I'm not sure the price wouldn't gut the Oilers though. Anaheim and Edmonton seem to line up better for needs. I'd love to have Vatanen. Anaheim has to move somebody. I know the rumour is they would prefer to move Fowler, but we'll see what happens.

Weird post. Are you feeling happy, paranoid and hungry all at once?

 

[WTFMAN99]

Leafs really have need for a guy who can handle top pairing duties.

Right now our depth chart looks like this?

LD
Rielly
Gardiner
Hunwick
Loov

RD
Zaitsev
Carrick
Polak
Corrado

Marincin can play both sides.

Everyone else isn't really NHL calibre, so someone needs to step up to play with Rielly to play on the top pairing right side.

 

[WhalerTurnedBruin55]

He was heavily rumored to be on the Bruins radar for the trade deadline before his big suspension went down. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Bruins trade for him.

I think that option went away when we bought out Seidenberg. Rumors were to take a large cap hit short term, and Seidenberg had another year. Other than that salary swap, I don't think the Bruins really want to bring Wideman back.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Wideman is available lol

Honestly I think he's a better fit for the Oil than Barrie, if only due to cost.

A third and Ference's contract spot? (He'll be on LTIR for this year, with insurance footing the bill)

 

[PatrikOverAuston]

Simple three-way:

To Colorado- Jacob Trouba and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins
To Winnipeg- Matt Duchene
To Edmonton- Tyson Barrie

Avalanche still look strong with Landeskog, MacKinnon, Iginla, RNH etc. up front and Beauchemin, Johnson and Trouba on the back end.

Edmonton fills their top pairing with Barrie, while the Jets pick up a versatile forward who can play as 1LW until Laine is ready; he can then shift down to become an elite 2C. Laine, Scheifele, Wheeler, Ehlers, Duchene and Little is a contender-worthy top six, with Byfuglien and Myers holding down the right side of the defence.

 

[Whileee]

What happened to Myers and Bogosian? It has just come tumbling down.

Myers is just fine. Jets have 3 very good RHD, though.

Please, expand the deal in a way which removes forward(s) from Winnipeg and adds a replacement for Trouba. It is necessary.

 

[tony d]

Shattenkirk would make sense for Toronto. A veteran defenseman to go with all their young guns.

 

[Frenzy31]

In theory, these six Top D are available. Are there others?

Shattenkirk - St. Louis Available in the right deal.
Barrie - Colorado Not available unless a Dman is coming back.
Fowler - Anaheim Not sure - rumor has him available
Trouba - Winnipeg. One or the other Not available
Myers - Winnipeg One or the other Not available
Harmonic - NY maybe Not Available

In theory, these teams are looking. Are there others?

Boston
Arizona
Detroit
Colorado
Edmonton
New Jersey

Any thoughts on who ends up where?

If those players were available, Edmonton would likely have one of Barrie or Trouba. Teams are calling about them, but the Aves are trying to Add D. And Win. likes Trouba as he will likely be the best of the bunch.

Boston, Detroit, New Jersey, and Edmonton are looking for sure. Arizona may not be. And why would have have Colorado on the list is you think Barrie is available?
