Rumor: Trade Rumor Thread V: "Trade 40 Goal Scorer NBD" (3/8: Getzlaf re-signs)

[NYR Viper]

I do think Clutterbuck and Cullen will be dealt if the Wild are out of it at the deadline. Just a hunch but Clutterbuck especially would be a perfect 3rd line RW. I would deal Boyle for him then trade for a UFA rental C

Nash, Richards, Callahan
Hagelin, Stepan, Gaborik
Pyatt, rental, Clutterbuck
Powe, Halpern, Asham

Miller back down for more seasoning.

There would be 29 teams after Clutterbuck. He would be ideal for this team.

They need another RW why? If anything put him on the 4th and sit Asham, especially if he is still injured. Why are you breaking up Nash and Hagelin to bring in a third line RW? Who are they trading for him? Boyle? He is missing from your lines. Why trade him and then trade for a rental to replace him?

Miller is looking better each game. He will probably stick.

i dont think he has played great but he doesnt deserve to go down yet.
it would cost alot more than Boyle for Clutterbuck... if the Wild deals Clutterbuck i wont be shocked if his value was a first, top prospect and a depth player

 

[Vitto79]

how about Carolina as a seller with Ward down? Unless Ellis steps it up they may be in trouble

Chad Larose? (UFA)
McBain or Jokinen?

Still would love McBain, although for a team pushing for right now it may not make the most sense. I doubt they move Jokinen. Maybe Ruutu.

They might reconsider now that Ward is out for 6-8 weeks with a knee injury. Ruutu is injured as well, so they can't trade him. Want nothing to do with Jokinen.

I think McBain would be a nice addition. However, I think he's finally recapturing his game and might be off-limits.

If you are going to pont at production, I believe you should point to both sets of stats.

Perron scored 42 points in 57 games. .73 PPG. Del Zotto scored 41 in 77. .57 PPG. Though I suppose it's much easier to make your point if you just leave out things like, ya know, facts.

Ok fair enough.
But that actually points to another issue with Perron. His concussion history. Unless you think that fact is not relevant.
He has never scored more than 50 points in his career, I would much rather keep the 40 point scoring Dman and go get another LW that would get me similar production at a lesser cost, i.e. Glencross, until the kids are ready.
My point still stands, you don't rob Peter to pay Paul.

Additionally if you believe that Perron is JUST another 40 Point scorer, then you should exit the discussion.

You think Perron is special?
If you are biased toward Perron, then maybe you should recuse yourself from the discussion.

The Blues do not take a MDZ for Perron deal and run. They ask for more and justifiably so.

How so? Any supporting facts, or just an opinion.
Fact remains it is a lot easier to find a wing like Perron than a scoring Dman like DZ.

Let me add that if I am moving MDZ, it's not going to be for a player 7+ years older (Glencross)

Ca you point to where I said move DZ for Glencross? Nowhere. Go back and read the post.

 

[Trxjw]

Perron would be an excellent addition to this team. Very skilled, speedy, high hockey IQ. 24 years old.

Although I wouldn't move Del Zotto for him.

It'd give me pause, but unless we had another d-man lined up for a trade, I don't think I'd do it either. Perron might end up in Tortorella's dog house rather quickly as well. Kid loves to stickhandle and it results in quite a few turnovers.

However, Perron is the kind of talent I'd be looking for if someone came knocking for Gaborik.

Me too. Perron would be a nice addition for this team.

Perron + Polak + _______

Concussions are an issue. Never said it wasn't.

You can't say Perron has "never scored more than 50 points" and then turn around and label Del Zotto as a "40 point d-man". It's a little disingenuous. He's scored 40 points just once. Just like Perron has scored 50 once.

If we had another RHD lined up and this trade was on the table? I'd take it in a second. One for one right now? Don't think so.

 

[Kwayry]

3. 3rd line center
The names that I feel might be of interest here are:

• Mike Ribeiro
• Nik Antropov
• Derek Roy
• Stephen Weiss

I watched the Blues-Stars games yesterday. Roy was first star. I am still amazed how he delivered that blind pass to Jagr on his stick. He is 2C not a 3C.

He is actually a 2LW at this point I believe. Not even average defensively.

I really feel that Detroit would offer the best landing spot and return for Gaborik. They need someone who can capitalize with Datsyuk and he and Zeterrberg are getting older. One thrives with the puck, one without.

Just makes too much sense.

His concussion issue is as important to me as is Marc Staal's. The fact that he has not missed a game since coming back from that injury is encouraging. As is the fact that he posted a 60 point pace last year and pro-rated over a full season this year is on pace for another 55 points. And I do agree with the general premise of not taking from Peter to pay Paul. I just disagree with the general premise that you think that Perron is some run of the mill 2nd/3rd line tweener. Perron would be this teams 1st line LW hands down. No questions asked.

You think Perron is special?
If you are biased toward Perron, then maybe you should recuse yourself from the discussion.

Do I think he's special like in the sense that I believe he can be an point per game player? No. Do I believe he has yet to reach his full potential of a 30/30 guy? No. I'm not biased towards the player, but I do believe in acknowledging talent and pointing out where I see a disparity in understanding that difference.

You are not getting a teams 1st line LW for a 2nd pairing defenceman. Not when that 2nd pairing guy is not what they are needing in terms of defensive defenceman. It's an opinion, but one based on logic and need. If any team takes that deal it's the Rangers, not the Blues and I would prefer NOT to move MDZ at all.

Ca you point to where I said move DZ for Glencross? Nowhere. Go back and read the post.

No you did not specifically point to trading MDZ for Glencross, but the conversation was discussing MDZ for Perron, you dismiss Perron as a 40 point player and bring up Glencross (a true and legit 40+ point guy) So the assumption on my part because you did not specify otherwise, is that you advocated an MDZ for Glencross type transaction

And 37 point his rookie year, close enough for me.
Nevertheless, I think overall we agree, there are more pressing needs than a LW.

I am not going point by point, but I think there is a consensus here.
We would love to have Perron here, but not at the expense of DZ. Good enough?

I think it makes more sense for Detroit than for us. Especially if Detroit is coming east in the realignment -- though that might make Gabby more willing to waive his NTC.

I look at what would likely be available from Detroit and I can't help but say "meh" to all of them. I think the real solution, if we were to move him anyway, would be to perhaps target some pieces in deals that are more appealing to other teams, and then make an additional trade. I.e., trade Gaborik for a young LHD plus a top-six scoring prospect. Then trade the D we picked up for another scorer, like Perron for example.

 

[RangerBoy]

Perron had a serious concussion two years ago. Took him 13 months to play again. No thanks. The Rangers have already lost one player to a head injury. The Rangers don't have to move DZ unless its for a significant forward. A center. Power forward.

That will most likely be the way it has to be done and I feel that Detroit has a ton of pieces that both the Rangers and other teams would covet.

Gabby to Ottawa for Cowen, Zibanejad and a pick per me and no Sens fan ever.

Either Detroit or Ottawa would be good landing spots Gabby would waive his NTC for.
I personally think Sather would only move if he is overwhelmed by an offer. This team still needs scoring and the point of the Nash trade was to enhance Gabby's production not replace it. But it will not stop us fans from speculating.
I prefer Ottawa, they have better assets.

 

[RangerBoy]

The Blues are a mess. Steen,McDonald and Tarasenko are out. Their goaltending has been inconsistent. Arnott has re-joined the Blues to see if he can play again. They looked so good in the first 2 weeks of the season.

 

[RangerBoy]

Gaborik has a list of teams he won't accept a trade to. The Rangers don't need his permission to trade him to the teams not on the list.

The Rangers won't trade Gaborik this season.
