I don't know what it would take from Anaheim to get Laine but Lindholm doesn't make much sense. I know that is what jets' fans will want/expect but I would never see Murray trading our number one dman for a number one winger.
I could see kase involved along with a kid like Lundestrum, but doesn't Winnipeg need dmen? We don't have any of those to give really.
What guy is this?Regarding that dude about speculati g the Ducks.
If you watch his not so rich timeline, you can find he kind of pointed to Ducks and Pirri 2 months before the trade. Also Bernier stuff. Pirri to NYR.
That makes me think. But personally, even as a Ducks fan, I don't see us being good trade partners. Would absolutely love Laine tho
Supposedly he writes for a few media outlets. Cali Sports News, The Puck Network (TPN) and DucksNPucks.What guy is this?
Doesn't make any sense for the Ducks. A move like that doesn't make the Ducks better. It makes us worse, by a lot. Especially if you think the Ducks need to add. If that is the necessary price then the deal won't happen and its another "baseless" rumor. Ducks just dont have roster players that they can spare in a deal like this unless they're players that are being upgraded on, like Rakell, Kase, Ritchie or Rico. Players Wpg fans don't want.If the Ducks rumor is legit (though I really doubt it), you'd have to think it starts with Lindholm. Maybe add in a prospect like Steel. Not sure what else would work.
lindholms agent is Claude LemieuxIf the Ducks rumor is legit (though I really doubt it), you'd have to think it starts with Lindholm. Maybe add in a prospect like Steel. Not sure what else would work.
In no world is a one dimensional streaky winger worth Lindholm, especially one that's not even signed. And us adding Steel, lol.If the Ducks rumor is legit (though I really doubt it), you'd have to think it starts with Lindholm. Maybe add in a prospect like Steel. Not sure what else would work.

Can't see Laine playing for the Ducks. Not even convinced that Ducks could trade anything and be equal or better off for it; especially with Getzlaf getting up there in age. I'm going to just take the obvious road and guess that Laine signs a bridge contract.
Maybe you can convince Selanne and Carlyle to come out of retirement and throw them in the package too.Oh hey if its the ducks how about making it laine for getzlaf?
Maybe throw in a cap dump like kulikov? Maybe some younger secondary piece from anaheim?
I know people dont like trading kids for old guys but man getzlaf would give them a heck of a 1-2 punch up the middle.
I get that Ducks fans don't want to give up Lindholm+ but they must realize that would be the cost. They don't have any players of equivalent or greater value, so you can't expect to hold out - it's already a package of lesser pieces.

You don't trade a 21 year old who has the potential to be a perennial 50 goal scorer for a player who's a couple years from retirement, nor do you do that trade to upgrade your 2C, which this doesn't even accomplish. Getzlaf didn't do much better than Little last year despite getting more minutes and PP time
Is this Mega Thread up for any reason other than having an "all encompassing" thread up?
It wouldn't be the cost. Remember the trouba trade? Players just don't bring back what fans think they are worth on here.I get that Ducks fans don't want to give up Lindholm+ but they must realize that would be the cost.

@Filthy Dangles posted earlier a Tweet that showed the Rangers had interest in Pirri back in March of that year. (Excellent memory, or detective work on his part.) So it’s possible that he is just one of those “Roger Dicklund” types who just guess and act like they have sources, although his page still seems much more credible than those. I wouldn’t put much stock into what he says, but interesting to speculate about.
Exactly like Trouba? Where do these people come from?It wouldn't be the cost. Remember the trouba trade? Players just don't bring back what fans think they are worth on here.
If Laine is traded it's either because the jets dont think he is worth the money he is asking or they and the player have a soured relationship. That scenario is exactly like trouba's and those situations just don't bring back what you're expecting.
