Speculation: Trade Speculation Part V

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

He'd be a good option, but what would he cost? Like the equivalent to what we gave them Arnott for? Like a 2nd round pick + Tallinder or a prospect?

The problem is Ribeiro is in great form this year, that package will not be enough.
If Washington deal him, they will get a first rounder back.

Haha they can keep the first rounder then. I wouldn't give them that for a rental like Ribiero. He's not Iginla.

Next yr it will be Richards and then Nash.

my favorite part

But it also does not compute that Tortorella would have shifted Gaborik, who had spent his entire career at right wing, to left wing ... and moreover, would have stranded him there for more than two dozen games even after it had become painfully obvious the move was detrimental to the winger’s performance.

seriously though- if the rangers win the 2 games they have in hand, they tie us in points.

 

[CerebralGenesis]

Right but we have 1 legit win in a month so that isn't saying much.

 

[Volodya Krutov]

If we lose tomorrow we have no business at being ahead the Rangers anyway.

 

[BrodeursCups]

A chance to create separation tomorrow. We have to win that game...

Lou has something up his sleeve either another loophole to avoid forfeiting the 1st or a trade for a 1st I'm almost certain.

I'm almost certain he doesn't. The NHL made their ruling, the Devils have to live with it.

I agree. I am anticipating the pick to be lost next year but Lou will probably try to trade around and pick up another asset.

 

[BulletTheBlueSky]

I truly feel if Iginla is ready to move, this is a highly likely move for Lou. He's a veteran, he's extremely serviceable but he's old enough to bring the cost down. Will be interesting to see who offer what. I have a feeling it won't be be extravagant.

 

[CerebralGenesis]

The entire eastern conference will probably be bidding on Iginla. Kudos to whoever wins that bidding war

 

[Holtz My Bahls]

I don't know but wasnt an appeal possible? I mean obviously it's been too long since the penalty was handed down. I just don't understand keeping the 29th pick... I like Matteau don't get me wrong, but why would you keep that low pick and chance giving up a high pick, god forbid?

Roster player, top D prospect and a 1st is the asking price...rumored anyway.

No thanks that's way too much.

no chance in hell they deserve a 1st unless it's strictly a low 1st and he resigns. two bodies - 1 prospect and a top 9 offenseman. Let's see who gets the most stupid lol

edit: i could see lou giving an extra body simply because we have a couple of failing prospects in JJ and Teddy.

Rumor is that Havlat is available.

Don't know what I'd want to give up for him but he may not be a bad option. He and Elias are BFFs, right?

How would he fit in here? Haven't really watched him the last year or two.

never thought i'd say this, but lou may have made the right move here ...depending on how this season turns out..

buy low? id love fleischmann personally

 

[Holtz My Bahls]

I would like Havlat but what would SJ want?

 

[MartyOwns]

probably not likely, but possible that lou targets semin from carolina. i would love that. then, next year, lock him up.

i'd love to know if lou made semin an offer over the summer..

I doubt he did. Otherwise, Semin would be a Devil right now.

Idk If we were to end up with the 15th overall pick for the next 2 years for example, it looks like a poor choice unless Matteau turns into a superstar. It bothers me that we could potentially lose a really high choice over a BS penalty that other teams should have received as well.
