Rumor: Trade Rumors Thread Part 5: NYR Interested in Boyle, Gaborik Available (MOD: READ OP)

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

If this Lucic to Edmonton rumor is true I might murder someone tonight.

No way in hell they trade lucic

 

[haohmaru]

He would improve our 3rd line. That's what we should be trying to buy him as.. not the to 6 asking price sharks want. But regardless he won't help our scoring problems

Show me some "3rd line" players that have averaged 54 points/season over the last 4 seasons please.

 

[The Gloaming]

I wasn't expecting that no, but I was saying from the beginning that trading Iginla is a lose-lose situation for the Flames. Honestly, unless he requested a trade (which let's be honest, he'd never do), they should have just kept him.

Why? That team needs a rebuild in the worst possible way. They weren't winning anything, with or without Iginla. It's best to move on.

If he goes anywhere but the Rangers I'll be one angry son of a *****.

I dunno, if he heads out West it immediately makes the Bruins easier to play against

Watch his games this year, He's far from that player anymore

It's something I guess but let's be honest here, there isn't a guaranteed top line/pairing player in that deal....for the Franchises greatest player. Not much of a start to a rebuild.

But whatever, it's not my team.

Why would the Bruins ever trade Lucic to the Rangers???

Pipe dreams at their finest

That's a good point. From that POV I totally agree. But If it's for Whitney + MPS + 1st like the rumor is saying, Sather better get on that. I'd give anything for him.

I know it's probably BS but still.

When, how, and why did hockeybuzz and eklund become legit??? am i missing something?!

You answered your own question.

What do you think the Rangers should trade for Clowe?

LOL, Lucic would bring in alot more than that.

I've watched plenty of Sharks games this year and the guy is clearly playing through injuries to try and help his team. Like Gaborik in the playoffs last year, I'm not going to criticize a guy for playing through it to try and help his team. I've done it for my teams and I know how hard it can be.

Clowe, healthy, is a top six forward if you're paying attention.

Callahan?

so you would give up a 1st and top prospect for a guy who's battling injuries, not as good as he once was, and a rental?

 

[haohmaru]

Already said previously, Boyle and a 2nd. Maybe another prospect.

That being said, if I'm San Jose, there's no way I make that deal. They are right to be looking for a 1st+. The guy is 29 years old.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Dreger saying the Rangers have targeted Boyle, and have been for quite awhile.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

if I'm giving up a top prospect + 1st rounder, I want Jagr in return.

 

[haohmaru]

I've already said otherwise. Scroll back.

haha Well yeah. But that's what I'm saying. The rumor is ********. But wow that would cause an HFboards seizure.

 

[haohmaru]

LOL. WHAT? I *LOVE* Jagr, but there's no way in hell I give that up for him (or Clowe) on an expiring contract or for a 41 year old.

 

[mike14]

Callahan?

Cally's only hit 54 once. he certainly doesn't average that

 

[Championship*]

if I'm giving up a top prospect + 1st rounder, I want Jagr in return.

Thank god you're not the GM of ANY team.

2nd + Boyle would be something I can live with.
Anything more and I stay away.
