Speculation: Roster Building Thread XXXIV: Walk the line into the ring of fire

[UAGoalieGuy]

If we could get Eichel for Skjei, Kravtsov, and a solid prospect I'd so that every day, but it seems light for a 23 year old franchise center.

That's less than we traded for Rick Nash.

Probably would be ADA/Chtyil, Miller/Kravstov, and 2 #1s.

I think that's more likely

You just went full on Bern.

I'd trade krieder to the islanders if it was the best offer. Rangers would most likely get two quality long term assets for 5 months of krieder then the islanders get kriedered

With the Rangers sending scouts to the Kings for back to back games I’m thinking maybe that is a destination for Lias Andersson. His pop is still a scout with the Kings.

Kings have a lot of prospect depth, but if prospect for prospect why are the scouts watching the big club?

Then again Vilardi played in both of those games as well.

Something around Anderson and Vilardi? Both had their own separate issues during their developmental stages post draft. Maybe a small add to get it done?

Awwww, they scout the kings yearly. Nothing to see here.

When putting together a package for Eichel, Buffalo would realistically want a top 9 forward or top 4 forward, two top prospects and a 1st to start.

If Eichel demands a trade, and with his $10 million cap hit, the value doesn't diminish considerably, but I'm not sure that Eichel would garner more than what's above.

I'll take turcotte please

 

[LaffyTaffy]

Time to close this one up

 

[Michal]

If we're talking Tkachuk or Eichel, there are no untouchable prospects except for Kakko.

Think Gorton has the balls to go out and get both?

Kreider goes for good prospect and a 1st this deadline

Tkachuk comes in for Buchnevich, Miller, 1st from Kreider trade this deadline

Eichel comes in for Skjei, Kravtsov, prospect from Kreider trade

Lundqvist retires.

Next year:

Tkachuk-Zib-Kakko
Panarin-Eichel-Strome
Lemieux-Chytil-Gauthier
DiGi-Howden-Vet UFA/Fast?

DeAngelo-Trouba
Lindgren-Fox
Staal/Smith-Rykov/Vet UFA

Igor
Geo

LFG.

No chance for these trades. Calg and Buf would reject these offers immediately.

 

[Hockeyplayer99]

They aren’t self renting CK nor should they. If they cant resign him then they must trade him even if it’s not a great return

I hate the self rental stuff, it is dumb. Why would keep a player to lose him a couple of months later when your out of the playoffs, and a very slim chance of making it in to the playoffs. Sounds like bad management.

So, a week prior to the deadline the club is going to send 2 scouts to watch a West coast club they don’t play for the rest of the year in back to back games?

I’m on mobile but can someone make a new thread?

They've done this the past couple years with the Kings and no trades happened. May turn into something, but I think the poster is just saying to take it with a grain of salt for now and level set expectations, that's all.

I guess we’ll see.

 

[Lion Hound]

I think if there’s a deal to be made with the Kings, it would be for Kupari who is having a somewhat rough go of it in the AHL this year.

Could be, but he wasn’t with the big club. If I they were looking toward Kupari they would have been watching the Ontario Reign.

 

[wafflepadsave]

We need a batman signal up for @Edge !

 

[Lion Hound]

I guess we’ll see.

Im scouring everywhere i can trying to read between the lines. Weird that it’s so quiet on all fronts right now. Especially considering the club had TSN’s #1 player on their list.

 

[Michal]

Considering Georgiev has arbitration rights, I'm wondering what $ he's going to get should he end up staying here. 2M?

Good question. Anybody?

Think someone posted that they actually did take in one of those games.
