Proposal: Trade Rumours/Proposals [MOD - Stay on Topic]

[Sens of Anarchy]

would give a 2x 2nds + D prospect (ie Thomson) for Fabbro

For sure. Has to be 2024 or later at this point though

 

[Sun God Nika]

That trade could bite the leafs but they are trying to win now and that 1st is likely gonna be used for something

 

[DueDiligence]

Dubas is elite. Added a ton of hardness [McCabe, Lafferty, Schenn, Acciari, O'Reilly], dumped the softness [Engvall, Sandin] and recouped some draft capital in the process.

Well let's see how elite their goaltending is before getting too excited.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Because that's the only place Kane wanted to go. He's arguably the best player in their franchise's history, they probably gave the player what he wanted.

I know how and why it happened, but that still gives a very big advantage to "choice" destinations like NYC who get to add great talent for much, much less than teams like Ottawa or Winnipeg would have to give up. Isn't it enough that UFAs always seem to end up in the same spots that we now have unfair trades like these too?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

would anyone here rather have Dorion over Dubas?

serious question

No body without a Sens tat on their ass and beauty rose colored Sens glasses

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Well let's see how elite their goaltending is before getting too excited.

They still need someone to play second fiddle to Samsonov, or ideally, improve on him.

Surely, they aren't stupid enough to bank on Murray being available.

 

[ThaShow]

Well let's see how elite their goaltending is before getting too excited.

Imagine they find a way to get john gibson, that would be huge

 

[Big Muddy]

If we're really lucky it'll be in OT in game 7.

Maximum pain.

Maximum pain sounds good to me.

Speaking of which, having to stick Murray in nets and getting lit up would be great.

 

[WallyD]

Does the Toronto hate not wear off a bit? It's been almost 20 years since that rivaly was relevant.

No, like a fine wine it just gets better with age!

I also benefit from those years aging me too, my grey hair rendering me a crotchety old coot, as opposed to a raving loon Leaf hater!

 

[Ouroboros]

Imagine they find a way to get john gibson, that would be huge

Think they might be going with Korpisalo.

 

[Agent Zuuuub]

Why do you keep saying this lol .

Because Karlsson will probably be traded this summer and can pick his spot, and he just so happens to be in love with the city of Ottawa.

Melnyk and Dorion are also gone and his adoptive hockey dad is going to be back. The team needs a RD and EV strength driver.

All leads to pretty good odds that there will be interest on both sides.

Why do you think it's unlikely?

 

[Hale The Villain]

Korpisalo scratched

Could see him coming to Ottawa as Talbot's replacement

 

[Golden_Jet]

Seriously, we're going right back to how things used to be before the cap was implemented. Like, how the f*** do the Rangers get Kane for basically nothing?

Kane would only waive to the NYR.

 

[BondraTime]

Wouldn’t be surprised at all to see Dubas make a big run at Gibson, pay a ton of futures and whatever extra to get The Ducks to take Murray.

 

[HSF]

They just need Murray as backup for the playoffs

They have Woll as their up and coming and a good 3 who can move up

 

[Sens Vader]

Edmonton getting Ekholm

So Parayko is coming here or Calgary I’d assume

 

[Boud]

Everything is happening

 

[PlayItAgain]

Korpisalo scratched

Could see him coming to Ottawa as Talbot's replacement

Well I mean both teams agreed to the trade. Unless you want the players to not have agency, they have the right to choose where they want to go which is fair.

Ottawa will become more attractive as the team gets better and once there's a new owner. Obviously very few markets are as enticing as a good team in NYC.

 

[Big Muddy]

Luke Schenn too. Some additions being made.

Leafs are going bonkers. Dubas is pulling out all the stops most likely because if they don't make it past the 1st round, he knows he's getting the axe.

 

[Boud]

Korpisalo scratched

Been very solid and only has a year left. One of the best goalies available for low dollar. Definitely see him getting moved to a team that wants to make a push rather than us. Edmonton or even Toronto could make sense.

 

[coladin]

Leafs use that 1st for him

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Murray can't even be a backup. He's a gauranteed to be injured bum.

If I were them, I'd be shoring that up for sure and discounting the idea that Murray can contribute anything to their cause. Upgrading on Samsonov would be a bonus, but at least a good backup that might be able to step in if needed.

 

[Big Muddy]

Dubas going off

making some solid deals to make the defense hard to play against

If we win tonight lets see what Dorion does

Teams that are at very different stages of the cycle.
