Rumor: Rumours & Proposals Thread | Trade Deadline Festivities

McKenzie says the Nyquist to SJ thing is getting closer to done.

I'm not exactly sure how Doug Wilson keeps pulling off these trades considering he's basically used up most of his prospect capital already.

Hmmmm

Chiasson to Boston, maybe. They were in on Nyquist apparently.

I’m suddenly reminded that the last time we were buyers at the deadline we got David Desharnais.

Simpler times.

Which was so worth it for that game 5 it winner.

Strickland says Fischer in Arizona could be available. Another interesting young name.

I like him, I was surprised he didn't do better this year, always seemed like his fundamentally sound, strong along the wall, and a good enough shot that he had an outside chance at being a 2nd liner.

 

[Joey Moss]

Commodore called one?

I guess that probably takes San Jose out on Chiasson.

Nah, they'll pick him up for a 5th in 2019 and a 4th in 2020

 

[Ritchie Valens]

I hope San Jose didn't leave Detroit without him. They just played them earlier this evening.

 

[Cloned]

That pass by Drai was f***ing sublime.

Interesting that Detroit has now made 40 trades since 2005, less than 3 a year. In that same time, the average number of trades per team for the rest of the league is 104.

Oilers need to get their butts back to the playoffs asap. I was a wee lad in 06 and I need MORE PLAYOFF HOCKEY FOR ***** sake!

I was thinking today it feels like we have easily made the most trades of any team in the league in the last number of years. Which is obviously a problem with pro and amateur scouting.

Well in that same timeframe, not even close. The Oilers are right about in the middle (110), while Anaheim (167) and Arizona (155) are way out ahead.

Sharks window is now so they have no problem giving up draft picks and/or prospects for rentals.

Sieloff is going to concuss Perry in practice.

I know why they’re doing it, just a little jealous of how they manage to do it. He continually deals for bigger name players, never the other way around.

 

[Paralyzer008]

I'd be a fan of pulling off a trade for Alex Wennberg out of CBJ.

We'd have to move salary out in the deal, but Wennberg at the 3C slot allows the team to move RNH or Drai to the wing without sacrificing depth.

126 of these are for geriatrics they can stash on LTIR.

One can dream

AHL depth forwards. A John Chayka favorite.

That guy is the ultimate deck chair shuffler.
