Speculation: 2014-15 Ducks trade proposals/speculation Part V

[Gliff]

I don't see any way Silfver is moved unless it is in a package for a legit top pairing defender. What else could he be moved for? Center? No. Winger? Kind of undoing the Ryan trade isn't it. Picks and prospects? We have more then enough.

Only if his style becomes unnapropriate for us. But from Bruce`s and Bob`s comments they liked him in playoffs very much, Bruce said he` excited about C-K-S line that could ''skate, check, shut down'' as good as any line in the league and also score (Bruce said something along those lines in that one interview i can`t find link anymore)

So yeah, i think he stays for a while

 

[anezthes]

Do not want to trade Silver. But if BOS were to offer Hamilton, I wouldn't mind.

I think one of our wingers breaks out this year. My bet is on Palmieri. I really dont want to move him or SIlfverberg.

I don't think that you have to worry about that. Don't let the alarmist talk around here dissuade you. A year ago, people were saying the same about Bonino.

 

[George Binks]

Wonder what kind of dman we could land with a package of something like
Palms/Allen/maybe a 1st

 

[Sean Garrity]

Someone NEEDS to breakout. However, we are lucky to be in the position to have multiple people who COULD POSSIBLY breakout. From Silfverberg to Etem there are numerous candidates with the potential to breakout.

In my opinion, the issue isn't with who we could land, it's with who we need and who is available. Seems like the common consensus around here is a top-2/4 d-man who is solid defensively and can help on the power play, preferably who is right-handed/plays on the right. Realistically, how many defensemen fitting that bill are there in the league, let alone available?

I would just feel a lot more comfortable with this team in the playoffs if they added a top dman

Where are we going to get one of those from?

Allen by himself is barley worth a 5th to 7th. You don't want to trade a first? Good luck thinking you'll get anybody above another Stoner for Palmieri by himself.

i would be very open to trading draft picks

idk man just saying this team would be a whole lot better if they did

And we'd be a lot better with Sidney Crosby too.

 

[George Binks]

wow u think so

 

[BringBackTheIceman]

We'd be a lot better with prime teemu and kariya, Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Bobby Orr, and David Clarkson.

 

[Teemu Salami]

Take out Teemu, Kariya, Gretzky, Lemieux, and Orr and I agree.

 

[Kalv]

Clarkson would be great defending our young goalies water bottles:'' you better not touch it mother****er''

 

[TheJoeMan]

wow u think so

Just illustrating that just because a certain kind of player might make us better it doesn't mean its the kind of player we can acquire or really need for that matter.

 

[BringBackTheIceman]

Yeah those guys are bums, my mistake.

 

[KaseMeOutside]

will be interesting if silf scores 10-15 goals again and how this forum views his value

 

[Gliff]

I think whoever gets the RW spot with Kesler has a huge jump in production this year.

I don't. Kesler isn't exactly the type of player that makes the players around him better.

 

[Gliff]

I don't. Kesler isn't exactly the type of player that makes the players around him better.

I don't buy that he has no playmaking ability.

His most common wingers in 2014 were Higgins and Jensen. Not exactly Silfverberg, Etem, or Palmieri in terms of skill.... He has never had good wingers to play with. When he is in the Olympics I think he plays a great playmaking game.

The most talented guy he played with regularly was probably Samuelsson, and I don't think it's a surprise his numbers started trailing off once they dealt him.
