Speculation: 2014-15 Stars Trade Talk 4: Jim Nill's Trading Tactics are Classless

[LoneStarHockey]

Come on guys! It's flippin Draft Day! Rumors of Talbot. Anyone?

Maybe its the "calm before the storm"

 

[LoneStarHockey]

Been seeing that Martin Jones could be moved, does anyone think we could be possible landing spot? He would definitely be worth looking at.

Jones's stats look interesting on hockeydb. I'd be talking to LA about him too for sure.

 

[Magic Mittens]

I'm worried now that Ottawa has the 18th and 21st overall that they'll be looking to move up. I don't really want us to move down. Hope we stay in the top 14

Depends on who is left on the board at our pick. If I top 10 player falls to us, you pick. Otherwise Im not sure I'd be too heart broken to move down a bit to pick up a 2nd 1st.

Yeah I Suspose it wouldn't be the worst thing, if they did offer us both of there firsts I'm sure they'd want another pick back with our first.

I'm just excited to land another blue chipper

 

[Mr Misty]

I don't want to move back, but since there are 3 defensemen in the top 12, I think some team could jump ahead of Boston (went forward last year), Calgary (forward 2 years in a row in the top 10), and Edmonton (so many forwards) to get their choice of the next best guy.

 

[Unspecified]

What about Dallas acquiring Lucic? Good or Bad?

 

[LT]

No thank you. Doesn't fit the system, too expensive, on the downhill.

 

[Satan]

No to Lucic

 

[echlfreak]

1st and Garbutt for Talbot, Klein and rights to St. Louis. Willing to bet St. Louis will take a lesser deal for chance to win like Richards did with Chicago

Benn seguin nuke
St. Louis. Speeza Hemsky


Goose Klingberg
Daley Klein

 

[Mr Misty]

St Louis is like bad Whitney, maybe worse.

Bleh. St. Louis is hot garbage now, Klein and Talbot aren't worth 12th.

 

[Hull Fan]

Surely you don't think Sharp and Roussel have the same value? Obviously lots depends on the plus, but Roussel plus for Sharp isn't really paying a premium.

was my english that hard to parse? the issue I had was the + and I'm not a believer in Sharp remaining very good, to the point that he's obviously top six over Ritchie and maybe even Hemsky in that second year.

Wish Nill would've gone harder at Hamilton. We could have beaten what Calgary paid for him.

We don't even know that he was aware Hamilton was on the move. Sounds like Sweeney rushed the deal.

 

[Timani]

Damn Bruins traded Dougie Hamilton for #15 and two 2nds.

 

[BeaverSports]

Horrible deal by Boston. I'd hope Nill would have matched if able, Hamilton is a stud.

 

[WhoahNow]

Definitely would have liked to get Hamilton, would have given up 1st, 2nd, and something else for sure, but that really hampers our draft this year, and I'm sure Boston wasn't too keen on trading with us again after we fleeced them for Seguin.

The Lucic deal seems like a good trade for BOS though.

Still hoping for Lack as a 2nd goalie with the goalies left available.

And ended up getting fleeced by another team. For all the gloating from Bruins fans, the vital pieces they got for Kessel are now gone for mediocre returns and uncertain futures. Still find the decision baffling.

 

[masinaLFC]

Talbot and Stars rumours again...

 

[LT]

Dreger said he expects us to land him, but no deal is confirmed yet.

 

[LT]

 

[Pohlow]

So we get Niemi

 

[LT]

Goalie situation solved.

Now onto the defense.
