the first time I heard a rumor this season between the habs and the sharks it was on hockeybuzz.

Probably looking at Defense. You should also change the title to in Chicago lol.

Didn't even realize till after you pointed it out, thank you.

Doug Wilson? Hmm, Jason Demers makes a lot of sence I guess. Problem is, one of Gilbert/Weaver has to he traded elsewhere.

 

[Habssince89]

Both teams could be in play, and given recent movement I think its fair to consider the tradetalk to be legit.

Who could we be looking at for the blueline?

Oduya?
Braun?
Irwin?

And forwards
Bickell? (Struggling with a big contract)
Wingels?

Pure speculation obviously but I thought I'd get the ball rolling on possibilities from both CHI and SJS

Every other week there is a thread about one GM meeting another in a game. I cannot recall one instance of trade occurring after that meeting.

 

[Habsfan2731]

I have to wonder if it could be Marleau or Burns that MB could be interested in.

 

[Fazkovsky]

Burns or Doherty please

Not a chance in hell any of the 2 gets traded this season. Wilson's not stupid.

Burns isn't going anywhere, and I don't see Marleau wanting to leave SJS

 

[Marc-E-]

Bergevin's trolling Wilson if Jumbo Joe wants to play in Montreal or if only wants to go to NYR.

and I can't believe mb is stupid enough to give what it would take

 

[Habsfan2731]

Burns or Doherty please

Why would you want Doherty?

 

[Skip Bayless]

Would drag my into a sea of shattered glass for MA Vlasic

 

[Fazkovsky]

Why would you want Doherty?

I know he isn't established in the nhl yet but he is rh, big body and even has offence potential

 

[Habsfan2731]

Was he not just on waivers?

 

[BLONG7]

Eklund and Dreger should be in on this soon...

 

[Alexdaman]

its the habenning.

 

[Habssince89]

People talk about Bickell being dead weight. With the cap rumoured to be staying put, maybe Bergevin can squeeze CHI for Bickell, with the Hawks retaining salary.

Bickell at 2M would be awesome

 

[Fazkovsky]

Was he not just on waivers?

Yep we could get him for very cheap

 

[Mats NAslund]

Bergevin's trolling Wilson if Jumbo Joe wants to play in Montreal or if only wants to go to NYR.

Agreed!

 

[void]

Doesn't mean anything, IMO. I'm pretty sure Bergevin still has some family in Chicago.

Bickell would be nice, he's money in the playoffs!

GP- 57 G-20 A-14 PTS- 34

 

[Treb]

Yep we could get him for very cheap

We could've claimed him and now you want to trade for him? Unless it's a Bourque/Moen for Doherty trade, no thanks.
