Proposal: Trade Rumors/Proposals 2019-2020 (Part 1)

[harrisb]

This guy has some legitimate sources but not a guy with a high batting average.

This scares me

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

This scares me

yeah, not a fan of this either

 

[BonkTastic]

This scares me

Chances of us continuing to be interested once our "information gathering" stage reveals how much Laine wants to be paid?

 

[danielpalfredsson]

Dorion has talked about how active he always is in trade talks.

I would bet he investigates a lot that doesn't pan out.

If Montreal is a front runner, driving up the price on them wouldn't hurt.

Gotta imagine either Batherson or our 1st would have to be part of the price.

 

[Joeyjoejoe]

Jets will probably be asking for NHL ready or proven prospects.

 

[Slack]

I'm a big Laine fan but I'm afraid of the asking price for this guy.

Whatever you do, Dorion, just don't give up the Sens' 1st.

 

[HSF]

laine wants a bridge contract i believe?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

What would the asking price on Connor be vs Laine?

Mark Stone

Mark Stone

Yes well ,, I meant on the Sens. haha

 

[HSF]

If the sens were serious i gotta think they have a solid chance at getting laine with all the elc type players and prospects we have.

 

[Samsquanch]

Were not trading this years 1st round pick, and Laine isnt being traded without getting a 1st round pick from the upcoming draft (as a starting point). So I dont feasibly see how these two teams could work a deal out.

I hope we stay clear of this one tbh.

 

[BondraTime]

If we wanted to pony up the cash for Laine, we certainly have the most pieces for Winnipeg. I wouldn't want to give up the ELC guys for a ~10 million dollar caphit with the state of the Sens currently, but all of Batherson/Brown/SJ 1st/Brannstrom/White would be very appealing to Winnipeg.

We have the Sharks 1st (along with a metric ton of other B/B+ assets).

Whether or not we should be making a move for Laine (or any other young/talented/expensive player) is certainly up for debate, but the lack of assets isn't gonna be the sticking point.

I forgot about the Sharks 1st, so I suppose your right. It would defintely have to be a Karlsson like trade though (quantity over quality amirite!) as we cant afford to give a top prospect (like Batherson) at this stage of the rebuild.

Personally, I think we should just stay the course and forget about Laine. I would be more interested in Poolparty myself, considering the cost of acquiring them.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

I'm not too concerned.

If they acquired him, it tells me they have a lot more money to spend than I assumed. That would be good news.

Yeah, Pierre would never trade our 1st this early in the year. He would at least wait until early November before dealing it.

Im terrified at the thought of this team winning a bunch of games in October, and then declaring the rebuild to be over...

Thats basically what happened to us back in 2012, when we should have had another year or two of misery before we started competing again.

 

[Silencio]

If it comes down to a pick/prospect bidding war Ottawa can outgun Montreal. As with most other posters, I'm really not sure I'd want it to.

 

[Slack]

Rumors seem to suggest WPG wants 2 1sts and a roster player/ NHL-ready prospect for Laine. Which is weird, considering they should be in "win now" mode. Might just be people throwing shit against the wall.

Yeah.. I remember what we wanted for Karlsson when our backs were against the wall.. they wont be getting all of that imo.

I'd probably offer a package that looks something like:
- Tierney
- Demelo
- Balcers
- Norris
- our 2nd rounder this year (roughly equivalent to a late 1st rounder)
- our 3rd rounder next year (roughly equivalent to a late 2nd rounder)

Don t go in the Jets board with that proposal

Why not?

If not Laine, I bet that package could fetch a pretty good blueliner...

We have to put us Ottawa first top five protected Batherson or Brown in a packaged
