Speculation: Trade Speculation Part V

[Saugus]

I am guessing we make a trade to get Jagr if Kovy goes down.

I'm guessing the opposite. If Kovy goes down, we do nothing.

I think so, too.


Lou loves his Status Quo.

 

[aboriginal]

as much as id love jagr, i doubt he gets moved. dallas kinda needs him for their playoff push. wish they were bottom of the league so they would bd more inclined to move people.

Right now there are three legitimate sellers - Florida, Calgary and Colorado. Maybe that number gets upped by a couple toward the deadline but I don't think there's going to be the amount of activity there is in a normal year.

Im expecting Lou to sign a College FA sometime soon. We all know Lou loves his college players

Won't be any of the high profile un-proven players who get 1+m and get promised playing time right away.

Lou wouldnt be that desperate. He will get under the radar guys who he could develop

He won't be giving bonuses, so he won't be getting any of them to sign. Well the big name ones anyway.

 

[AfroThunder396]

According to Eklund (I know LOL), St. Louis or Eriksson may be available if DAL and TB decide to blow it up.

Both would be a godsend to this team. Unfortunately I doubt Lou would give up big assets right now.

 

[Edmonton East]

Doubt we have the assets to do much, but man, St. Louis has been one of my favorite players since he entered the league.

Sigh.

 

[Devils Trap]

St.Louis and Kovy on the same PP ???

Oh myyyyyyy

 

[apice3*]

According to Eklund

No need to say any more

St.Louis and Kovy on the same PP ???

Oh myyyyyyy

We already have Kovy and Elias on the same PP and it doesn't do anything spectacular.

Penguins are close to acquiring Brendan Morrow from Stars per Darren Dreger...but Morrow hasn't waived his NTC yet

Michael Russo ‏@Russostrib 1m
RT @DarrenDreger: Source say the Pens and Stars have a trade in place for Brendan Morrow. However, he has yet to waive no trade clause.

 

[Mgd31]

Joe Morrow for Brendan Morrow

 

[apice3*]

I'm glad the Penguins continue to address their offensive issues.

 

[Devils Trap]

Joe Morrow for Brendan Morrow

Todd Cordell ‏@ToddCordell 37s
Dreger says Joe Morrow will likely be *part* of the package going to Dallas. I'd hate to see what else PIT is giving. Joe is enough.

If they give anything up more then Joe Morrow, thats a huge overpayment

 

[Devils Trap]

Watch someone like Loui Eriksson be involved

 

[Czech Trio]

This is an interesting spot now since Lou has acquired D'Agostini and Kovalchuk has gone down.

He'll be missed on the PP and maybe the PK but face it 5v5 he wasn't producing like crazy. We have enough solid NHLers to make it through no doubt.

 

[Czech Trio]

Rosen said 1st rounder is part of the deal + a defensemen.

 

[apice3*]

I hate to break it to you guys but Kovy's presence is more important than his production 5v5.

Just because he's not scoring doesn't mean he's useless like some are suggesting. He faces the top competition, which allows Elias and Clarkson to face lesser defensive pairings. Now a struggling Clarkson has to play even further up the depth chart, and Elias is going to draw the top defensive matchups. Kovy being out makes everyone on this team worse in every situation.

 

[Czech Trio]

Why do the top people that run this forum recognize Eklund as a source still? Is he paying them to?

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

BRendan Morrow sucks now.

 

[Devils Trap]

If Joe Morrow goes to Dallas for Brenden Morrow, we kno wwhy Lou hasnt made a huge move. The market is terrible if thats the asking price

Its like moving Jon Merrill for Brenden Morrow

He did break Kovalchuk to NJ trade along with Thrashers beat writer at the time
