Speculation: Trade Deadline Rumors/Speculation Part II

[Sharksfan83]

If he isn't resigning and tampa can fit him in cap wise this year, then we could get a kings ransom of futures from Tampa. If they got Karlsson right now, they would be pretty much a shoe in for the cup.

Ottawa gets another first if we trade him out east

 

[HeiHouHauki]

Timo is very good player in such a young age in his style of play

..but still Stone is better and another level:

Would be insane to have 'em both (Timo, Stone).

 

[Limekiller]

My dream would be something along the lines of: Labanc + Heed + Melker + Roy + Letunov + 2nd. Now, I doubt that would get it done, and would probably take one of the Ch-twins, but this *IS* Dorion we're talking about....

The more I think about this, if we did trade EK65 to the east, I’m sure DW would get a first back. Kind of in the catbird seat. Unless there’s something here I’m not seeing.

 

[Barrie22]

Another level but only 4 points more points.

 

[LA Shark]

We're not trading EK so it's kinda pointless to talk about.

Yeah. I agree.

At this time, we need to just hope for the best with the EK65 re-signing and focus on a good playoff run.

And the coming off-season definitely looks exciting with a lot of players hitting UFA. If EK65 does not re-sign I can totally see DW being active with signings as well as some other trades.

So we get one first and lose another, effectively giving EK away for no first and a couple additional pieces. No thanks

 

[PavelLevap]

What would SJ give up for Panarin?

Honestly, even if it's that offer but with Chmelevski in there instead of Letunov, that's a steal. Unfortunately, I think it'll have to be Merkley instead of Heed as well.

Way too many pieces. I don't think it would take more than 3-4 quality pieces. I am thinking:

2nd
Labanc
One of Ch-twins

Honestly, if it takes more than that for a rental Stone, I would just walk away and try my hand during UFA. A lot of folks are underestimating the value of Labanc. A 23 year old pending RFA on pace for 40+ points.

There's almost no chance the Sharks get him in FA. It just never happens. As for Labanc, yes, he's probably a solid middle-6 tweener, but DeBoer clearly doesn't like him and keeps burying him on the 4th line for 3 out of every 5 games. That is not where Labanc is going to be successful. Also, Stone is an absolute stud, so you give up a lot to get him imo.

 

[Crazy Joe Divola]

I assume DW would talk to EK about pursuing Duch and/or Stone, no?

For the perspective of a guy who has actually played with them and then also as a guy who might be more inclined to stay and play with one/both of them if it could be arranged.

 

[Internazionale]

We're not trading EK so it's kinda pointless to talk about.

The only way we trade him is if he 100% says he isn't signing with us before the deadline.

 

[LA Shark]

The only way we trade him is if he 100% says he isn't signing with us before the deadline.

Even in that scenario I don't believe there is any chance we'd trade him. You don't trade one of your best players when your trying to win a cup.

 

[HeiHouHauki]

Another level but only 4 points more points.

Stone linemates are two rookies. Senators has 159 goals scored, Sharks 190 goals. Couple good facts what point totals dosen't tell you.

And his defence play is elite. Senators sucks but guy is still on talks of Selke trophy, as a winger.

 

[rangerssharks414]

I'd love to have Mark Stone, but the price will be through the roof. And there will be a lot of teams vying for his services.

 

[matt trick]

Even in that scenario I don't believe there is any chance we'd trade him. You don't trade one of your best players when your trying to win a cup.

This team has a decent chance of going to the sfc as is. If we can add an elite rental, than we can compete with anyone. If we grab just a good rental, I like our odds as well.

 

[TheWayToRefJose]

Anyone else kind of hate the lack of leaks involving SJ? Damn it DW, give out some leaks so I have something to be excited or upset about.

We got linked to Brassard. That’s about the only leak I’ve seen so far.

 

[Sysreq]

Chicago, Minny and New York were scouting this past game. I would presume we are at least in talks with them.

I kind of like a GM who doesn't telegraph his punches. It's what allows him to pull off things like the Karlsson trade. Compare that to a Peter Chiarelli or even a Jim Benning.

I admit it does result in less to talk about.

From a "business" stand point, it makes sense, but it makes way less excitement for fans

I don't know if you can quantify excitement, but there is usually plenty after a trade. I would be surprised if DW does nothing in regards to the trade deadline. Though it should be noted that DW is a notorious tirekicker, so I wouldn't be surprised to hear rumors that the Sharks are "in" on several players being shopped.
