Proposal: Trade Rumors/Proposals Thread 2013-2014 | Part IV

Why are people so eager to send Grant back to Bingo? IMO he's been an excellent addition to the bottom six and PK.

Role players tend to be de-valued here. He has not put up goals, therefore he must have little or no value. I agree with your slant, simply because I remember the atrocious PK in the first few games before he was called up.

 

[Hale The Villain]

Grant has been awesome.

Seamless transition from the AHL to the NHL. The points haven't come yet, but he's handling the puck well and has gotten a couple chances. With his size and speed he'll develop into a decent offensive player, just needs a little more time to get used to the NHL game.

Macarthur Turris Ryan
Pageau Spezza Zibanejad
Hoffman DaCosta Stone/Condra
Greening Smith Neil


in: Hoffman, Dacosta, Pageau, Stone/Condra
out: Grant, Michalek, Conacher, Condra/Stone


there. do that. someone else can solve the disaster that is our defence.

There would be no need to take care of the defense you made a huge mess of our forwards

 

[WhiteLight*]

meh, Grant hasn't been that good. He's been fine for a 4th liner, but hasn't been spectacular. He's shown flashes of good, and flashes of bad, but most of the time has been invisible.

He's been fine but I wouldn't mind seeing him go back to Bingo and calling up a player who will have more impact.

Teams tell me Senators GM Bryan Murray has been working the phones. Club needs help on defence. Inconsistency has gone on for a month #Sens

Sounds like Murray is at least trying to make a trade.

Devalued I'm thinking overvalued, people want to rearrange the deck chairs on the titanic thinking it will fix things LMAO. If you think changing a couple of spare parts will change the fortunes of this team then I think it would have been already done. Grant has been good but oh no he has no goals and our penalty kill hasnt been good, send him down. Do people really watch the games or do they just look at stats to form an opinion ?

Do or do not. There is no try

Lol, how many spectacular fourth liners are there in the NHL? WTF do some of you even say? This forum sometimes...my God.

I think the budget is significantly limiting the types of trades he can make.

Flyer fans think if they package both Schenn's together, they'll get Zibanejad, Cowen and Ryan

Ahaha. I wouldn't trade Zibby or Ryan individually for both.

lol, could it really be any worse

Why are people so eager to send Grant back to Bingo? IMO he's been an excellent addition to the bottom six and PK.

while i had him out of the lineup, its not really that he's performing badly its more the kind of game id like the team to play, and the number of centers we have.
We have a lot of guys who are OK but dont really have an impact, and he can be sent down without losing him.

 

[WORLDSTARHIPHOP]

Grant has been good. Our forwards have been okay on the most part looking at PF.

It's our defence that needs help.

 

[Milan the God*]

Ahaha. I wouldn't trade Zibby or Ryan individually for both.

Agreed.

I think Brayden Schenn is overrated because of all the hype before the 2009 draft of him being Luke Schenn's brother (who's garbage...but played for Toronto). He doesn't have any real game-breaking abilities, and I think he's simply average or a little above average in most areas. Luke Schenn is a bottom pairing defenseman who struggles every time I watch them play.

 

[Wondercarrot]

also if Grant stays then that means smith centers the 3rd line which i dont like as a combo.

Don't miss the boat Murray

 

[Tampacuseforever]

Ya it could IMHO adding more rookies to this mess could only stunt there development. Change needs to be made to some core veteran pieces or it will only be a lateral move. Think BIG man Something needs to be done to shake the foundation.

 

[ZekeA]

No no no..........................

"Milan":

Good GOD NO NO NO.

Scary thought 1st off Ryan is going nowhere I doubt they move Zibby, & Cowen as they hyped him up so big I doubt they trade him......

Dont get me wrong, feel free to eject Michalek and Phillips into space.
Neil although he's slowed this year is still the only forward that hits with an intensity.
Spezza fills a very difficult need to replace and presents any number of very awkward obstacles if we even did want to move him, and even though not playing his best is still putting up points.

What core players are left?
I would think moving out Michalek, Conacher, and Phillips would signify BIG

 

[danielpalfredsson]

The idea that Ottawa would even consider trading Ryan for anything other than two or three times what he's worth is laughable in an NHL 13 Be A GM mode trade sort of way.

 

[WhiteLight*]

Lol, how many spectacular fourth liners are there in the NHL? WTF do some of you even say? This forum sometimes...my God.

relatively speaking, a decent amount.

there would be more of them if Ottawa called up its better players.

Neil is a very good forth line player that serves a purpose. Conacher is not a core guy and moving him would not make a ripple. Greening, Michalek, And maybe a center because that is a position of great depth on this team. NOBODY should be exempt if the right package is offered.

Yes it's that easy why didn't Mac and Murray think of that ?
