Speculation: Trade Deadline: Who will we see in red? (Part 2) (MOD warning #661)

[InjuredChoker]

It's possible he was dangled in the Bouwmeester trade for all we know, but I don't think there's another deadline player out there that could possibly justify including Tatar at this point.

Not imo.

How in hell we didn't get him if Tatar was one piece? Tatar + some bottom 6er + 2nd/3rd + some prospect or even two. Better than Blues package imo.

Unless they really wanted that 1st there. Berra isn't that much of a difference maker.

Depends on how CAL feels about 2013 1st rounder. It's being hyped up (not sure if it is deserved)

Don't know if this has been posted because im on my phone but I just heard per The Ticket that Babcock says he would be extremely pleased if no moves are made.

If we trade Fil can't we just sign him this summer?

True. Can't believe Feaster would have passed Tatar up just to get a mid-late first.

If he makes to UFA sure. But if we can't agree on dollars now we probably won't on July

Until he goes to the media next season and says he begged for someone who was traded at the deadline.

Clearly he gets attached to the players, He said you have to take the emotion out of it but based on what he's done with Cleary, Bert and other guys it does affect him.

Once again Kenny speaks in contradiction. Anything, any kind of move would be a positive thing at this point. At this point, treading water is doing more harm than good for this organization. Why would any key free agent choose to come here over a team with a clear direction? If Kenny is too emotionally attached to make any move whatsoever, then he should step aside.

Pittsburgh and Detroit... Living in two different worlds!

Speaking of FLA, they keep getting calls on Dmitry Kulikov... Detroit, Philly, MTL, Chicago among teams to have inquired. Nothing imminent.

Take it with a huge grain of salt.

Pittsburgh acquires Jussi Jokinen.

Why didn't Pittsburgh claim him a week ago? Is it the Crosby injury?

That, and Carolina took on salary.

3m cap hit next year - the canes will retain some salary.

Ah... thanks

 

[SoupNazi]

Ben Bishop to Tampa Bay.

 

[Heaton]

Ben Bishop to Tampa Bay.

I'm surprised they gave up Conacher.

 

[kerjuxaxaxa]

with all due respect, that's terrible move by Yzerman.

 

[Kronwalled55]

22 year old Conacher that has 9 goals and 24 assists already in his rookie season

For Ben Bishop.

Yeah, I think I'll keep Ken Holland over Stevie.

 

[jaster]

I'm surprised they gave up Conacher.

Yeah, real ugly trade for TB, especially given their place in the standings.

Fire Yzerman.

 

[SoupNazi]

with all due respect, that's terrible move by Yzerman.

My thoughts exactly. Terrible trade.

 

[PullHard]

I think it is time for Yzerman to come home and work on his GMing skills some more under Holland and Nill. Bad trade.

 

[last_sd]

Yzerman is trying to get fired because he knows DET GM job is opening up?

 

[jaster]

AND a 4th rounder thrown in by Stevie. Brutal. Fleeced.

 

[Epsilon]

But I thought Yzerman was the genius GM who Detroit should fire Holland for?!

 

[InjuredChoker]

Come on.

Both are fairly unproven. Tampa has lot of undersized players that are good. Johnson is the one they wanted to keep.

Tampa has ton of promising forwards.
