Gabby for Seguin and DZ for Hall? :laugh:

That would set us up for awhile.
 
hahaha sather would go down as the best GM ever if he could get them done, but what do you guys think about trading for Mike Komisarek, if and only if they retain half his salary, would you make that trade? instead of 4.5 its 2.25?

its worth the risk, at least at worst he can provide some toughness who can actually be a solid 4-5 dman something seriously lacking... Boyle for Kosmisarek i could see happening

Kreider panning out soon seems less and less likely. It seems like he's going to take longer than we thought to figure it out. I think there's no way we separate Hags from Nash. There's not a single player on this team that has benefited more with playing with Nash than Hags has.

1 It is clear Kreider has the tools. He needs experience to develop,
2 He should get max minutes to get that experience/development
3 He could either get at AHL, w/o Torts all over him
or he could be here now, working the third line regularly and some extra minutes first line w/Nash. He could also get special tutoring in between games to accelerate his tutoring.

The faster we get rid of Torts, and this crazy unbalanced system which is a prescription for injuries, the better overall we will be, and the faster Kreider will be here. He'll get here regardless, but the faster he's not worried about someone looking over his shoulder excessively --- because that would not longer be the case --- the faster Kreider is here full time to stay.

Nash is obviously very talented and that helps whoever are his linemates.

I think it makes sense to have Hags w/Nash (the complete package) or Callahan (speed +) FOR NOW.
But Hags is already a little more of a self starter. Especially if you put him w/a speedy C in Miller.

But once he's here, if you pair bookends out of Nash and Kreider, esp. w. a complementary C, that's a major awesome synergy, a dynamic that will help us dominate (most shifts) at least part of the time.

MCD, MDZ, Hagelin, Miller etc all made it under Torts. Is Kreider mentally weak and need to be special treated to make it or what? Isn't there a slight possibility that it might be Kreider that just isn't ready yet and need to prove himself, just like everyone else? He was given the chance and didn't take it. Next time he better be prepared.

We have 3 defenders who can play that #6 spot for longer 4 minutes. Yes, they're gonna make bonehead plays or be too slow or too soft every now and then. That's why they're #6 defenders. No need IMO.

not a bad idea really. Morrow is not the same player but as a rental UFA reuniting with Richards does make sense.

Maybe we can get Prospal to play the other wing and can call it the slow as death line.
 
Dubinsky is available, according to Garrioch.
Columbus GM Jarmo Kekalainen is getting the lay of land, but he's also working the phones trying to clean up the mess left behind by Scott Howson. Sources say Kekalainen has been offering up centre Brandon Dubinsky and his $4.2 million cap hit through 2014-15 around the league. Acquired in the Rick Nash deal by Howson, Dubinsky hasn't been a liability he just makes too much money and Kekalainen doesn't have any ties to the deal ... Will Jarome Iginla stay or will he go? Calgary GM Jay Feaster hasn't dangled the veteran winger, but league spies confirm he has held talks with more than one team to see what he might fetch. If the Flames make this deal they aren't going to hit a home-run. "He can still contribute," said a league executive.

Too much money, unless Columbus ate half the salary/cap hit.
 
seeing the name Marcel Goc on the trade board. What's his deal?

would Boyle and Zuccarello's rights do it? Same cap hit as Boyle 1 yr left on deal
 
dubi at 3C or on the LW right now would be great . at 4.5 m cap hit not so much , 2.5-3 yes

I always liked Dubinsky... It's a shame that his career has taken a nosedive like it has. Hopefully he can return to form somewhere. I'm not sure who would take on that contract AND give up assets to acquire him...

I'd take Dubi for a 3rd.

move him in the off-season for a 4th.

I know it's a downgrade, but as a physical go to the net LW'er he can be helpful for a run.

Defensively responsible, offensively capable, physical and provides a certain level of toughness to the team.

Not a bad pick up
 
I've liked most of what we've seen from Powe. Solid 4th liner, can play center, good on the PK on a team that lost most of it's killers in the offseason. That trade was all kinds of win.
 
I don't think Columbus would be selling Dubi if they were planning on keeping half of his salary.

Of course I would be thrilled with the aforementioned deal. Adds only about 500k to the cap.

Sad truth. But let's just keep reality away a little longer, alright?
