Speculation: Trade Rumors & Roster Building Thread: Part XXVI: Halloween Edition

[Trxjw]

Can't wait to spend the next few weeks watching the Ducks dance around the cap while we all wait for something to happen.

Well they're kids, maybe they don't all pan out but it's still a strength within their organization. I don't understand why everyone is so adamant about their wing depth.

Could be because they have Stafford on the side of Schieffle and they have Tanev as their rookien winger who made it and had 0 points last I checked.

 

[Levitate]

It's a salary cap move. They have 8 D with Theodore

?

Not sure what you're saying. Don't see a reason to bring up Theodore unless they're sending someone else down or someone else is going elsewhere

yeah i'm confused too

To be fair, Theodore should be playing in the NHL, and Holzer shouldn't be playing his off side on the second pairing.

This is what I thought when I saw the move. It's a hockey move to improve the roster.

 

[Mac n Gs]

I don't believe Lindholm can play yet because of visa issues. Once he's in the lineup, then we'll see something happen.

 

[Trxjw]

The Ducks saved space sending Theodore down yesterday and bringing him back today. He's simply better than other guys on the blue line like Stoner. It's a paper move to save cap space even if it's just a small bit of it.

 

[Levitate]

Can they not send down whoever else he's playing instead of? Are they really worried about losing someone Stoner to waivers?

For a team that's squeeking by on cap space I just don't see why they're carrying 8 D (though to be fair I guess that's partly because they just signed Lindholm)

It's still their strongest position. Stranger things have happened but Idk about the value for us.

I thought that was a goalie who couldnt play because of Visa issues.

A ridiculously small amount of cap space. I don't buy that it's just to save space.

Correct. After the signing, most of the hockey reporters on twitter were speculating that it would take about ten days for him to be able to come over.

They've had some significant cap-related developments over the last forty-eight hours. May have necessitated some shuffling due to timing of various moves (e.g. when Thompson officially hit LTIR, when Etem cleared waivers, etc.).

In quantity yes, but they don't have enough NHL quality wingers today to fill out their top 9 with guys who actually belong and can do the job on each line.

Ok, awesome. Thanks!

Ok fair enough. Now from our side how do you guys feels about it?

 

[Ori]

lol you're all over the place.

hehe, try to have some fun here while rooting on a team.
I`m not a hardcore Canuck fan by the way - I seldom updated on their forums or team status, but I enjoy watching the Sedins play and it`s still juice in them, haha.

I like Rangers, because they have so many exciting personalities on this team from Nash, Yaromir Kreider, Hayes, to old Marty St. Louis, Hank, Zuci, x Brassard miss him a lot and Hags.
If u was refering to my Matthews`s parents one liner, yeah, I am not deadly serious all the time here or in life, because I know the time is too short. And having fun is essential even on HF Boards.

Every bit matters when you're in their spot.

 

[ZiGOODejad]

Hmm I'm assuming they needed him with depres on long term IR

 

[haveandare]

About what? Us moving a winger to them?

 

[aufheben]

Specifically Zuccarello. I can't imagine Miller is close to enough.

 

[ZiGOODejad]

[NYR Viper]

If the Rangers trade Miller @ 2.75m and demote Clendening or Skjei, they should have more than enough $$ for Trouba at a 5.25-5.75m contract correct?

 

[TheTakedown]

Winnipegs is not interested in Zuci due to age, jebuz.. They don`t give away rights for a 22 elite talent for a 29.
And it`s borderline fantasy suggestion, guys.

the ducks on the other hand, would do that...
