Rumor: Columbus in trade talks; trying to acquire Top 6 center

[Rasmus CacOlainen]

Yup since when does Kovalchuk get to decide where he plays his options right now are Devils whoever the Devils deal him to or the KHL . Pick your poison Kovalchuk

What on earth are you on about

Ryan Nugent Hopkins + Darnell Nurse

Don't be absurd.

Id rather get Murray+Bjork even if we have to add something small rather than get Murray+Jenner. But I am not really advocating for that trade. We have plenty of average Murray-type D. What we lack is top end D and I still think the Sabres should be able to convince a team to get top end D for Reinhart if they decide to explore that trade route.

Bjorkstrand is awkward for us in that setup because we need his sniping capabilities. It's not as impossible as it was before the Panarin trade, but it's still a little early to say "okay, nevermind, we can move him".

Brock Nelson for Ryan Murray.

Maybe. We're obviously aiming a little higher with package deals, but straight up that might work.
