Speculation: Trade / Roster Speculation Thread XXX: Don't You Do It, Slats!

[Vidic15*]

I actually think the longer this plays out the more likely it is he is traded.

Still calling Sather's bluff. They're standing firm. If he signs, it will definitely be Sather folding. I wonder if his ego can take that.

In 2011-12, Kesler didn't play well because of his shoulder. AV came out and said that the injury wasn't the reason for his poor play, and his agent was all like: "NUH-UH, HE WAS REALLY INJURED GUISE".

Injuries can be bad, even if you don't miss the games. I'm sure you can remember Gaborik's shoulder injury late the same year.

He's still not "injury prone" if he's considered that, wtf is Ryan Callahan considered? made of glass?

I am interested to see if St. Louis will be a scratch tonight ...

Gaborik's shot was never the same after that Armstrong hit. So much of the velocity (and less so accuracy) evaporated.

Edit: And then a year later in the playoffs, the torn labrum. The guys shoulder is shot from those two injuries.

Yes.

I've been told that if #islanders Thomas Vanek is traded it won't be to Ducks.

Per Renaud Lavoie.

Kings.

I doubt it. Even if a trade was likely:

1. Tampa Bay is in a playoff race
2. St. Louis is their most important player
3. St. Louis has missed 7 games in the last 11 seasons. Injury risk just isn't there.

 

[Filip Chytil]

Kings.

That's what I'm thinking too.

With the lack of grit on this team, with rumors of Kyle Clifford being available earlier in the year, I wonder if a deal can be made.

I put the chances somewhere between Ott and Rundblad

He plays injured all the time. He has a broken hand now and is still playing. Broke his hand early in the Olympics and is still playing.

Guy is tough as nails.

Same. Just too important to TB's playoffs hope.

If we can get him for a 3rd I'd be happy. Good player.
