Pick An NHL Ready Prospect For Ladd

[puck stoppa]

Which NHL ready prospect would you want? They can be first year NHLers as well. Which one do you think we will end up with if we get a player in return for Ladd and not a pick? Im not sure if mods can create a poll eventually but a few names that I would like to come back our way are:
Burakowsky, Mantha, Athanasiou, Ouellet, JT Miller, McCarron, Theodore, Kempe

I think a few teams that want to win now will give us a better return.

Burakovsky would be a nice fit. Always liked Ceci too if he could play the left side.

 

[Constable]

grimaldi from florida

 

[Pongs21]

Drouin

Alex Killorn

Alex Killorn

Alex Killorn is 26.

I like Burakowsky and Kempe and both are realistic targets IMO. I liked Athanasiou A LOT in juniors but I have no idea about his progression since leaving the O. Mantha is unrealistic. So is Theodore IMO. Not because Ducks wouldn't trade him (they have enough young d-men) but I doubt the Jets are looking for a F for D trade.

 

[Robinson2187]

I know he said prospects but I'm including other players as well seeing as the Jets might opt for someone who can help sooner rather than another prospect. That's what I would do assuming the competitive window is a couple years.

Sven Andrighetto wouldn't be crummy.

I don't think the Jets would mind a good LHD coming back in the deal for Ladd.
I'd like to see Drouin coming back.

 

[RustyCat]

Would love to have Anthony Beauvillier on the team

 

[Derfel*]

So far I'd pick Ladd over any of the names mentioned, including Drouin.

Wow. ok then

Personally, I`d prefer a LHD prospect thats overready or very highly rated.

Yup, add something to get Theodore if you have to is what Im thinking. Connor will soon enough replace Ladd in the lineup. If ANA is all in this year what else would they want to add for their cup run? Would they want anyone else from our roster?
Ladd and Lowry
for
Theodore and and 1st and a 2nd (conditional 1st if they go to Cup finals)

That seems like too much but I really like Theo. What do we need to do to get him?

Take Drouin in a second for Ladd.

This is about Player X vs. nothing.

Some of the prospects wished for here will require something to add with Ladd to get them if we want a top 2 round draft pick.

Alexander Khokhlachev
Ville Pokka
Nikolay Goldobin

We have lots to add. Like Pavs, Burmi and Stu.
Dreaming is fun.

Alexander Khokhlachev
Ville Pokka
Nikolay Goldobin

I like Khok but not sure BOS is in a win now mode, Goldobin would be good. SJ may seem to think this is their last kick at the can.
edit: STL would be good fit, what about Barbashev?

 

[Daximus]

Alex Killorn

Killorn would be a perfect fit for us. Might be able to scoop him up in free agency.

If I had to pick anyone it would be Theodore but I don't think that would ever happen.

 

[raideralex99]

How about Ladd and a goalie for McDavid ... Oilers need a goalie very badly and some veteran help.

Boston is in the mix, but they will loose Chara soon and their top two centres are aging. They also stacked 1st round picks last year.

 

[Robinson2187]

They can kick all they want they aren't getting anywhere. In which case I'd take Vlasic. He won't be wanted in the rebuild.

 

[MardyBum]

Ladd to Chicago for their first and Pokka

 

[tacogeoff]

I was thinking Ladd, Trouba and THor for Stamkos and their 1st.

I kid I kid.

most of those on the list will be tough to get in return for Ladd an UFA, we would probably have to add.
