Speculation: 2015 - 2016 Coyotes Roster - Part 7

[Jakey53]

I'm thinking Silfverberg maybe.

What about Ritchie?

 

[cobra427]

Sure. Fowler or Lindholm would be great. We'd have to add soooo much.

Like Boedker(50%)+Doan(50%)+Dahlbeck+NYR1st+ARI2nd

I doubt Fowler or Lindholm are available, Vatanen is a maybe only because he is an RFA and they have some depth already.

 

[Jakey53]

He'd be great on the opposite side of Rieder.

Id rather add to Boedker for one of Montour or Theodore. Probably add something significant to Boedker, but still...

Either of those two would be great. I really like Vatanan. Maybe Schultz from the Oilers.

 

[Jakey53]

I heard Fowler was available earlier this year. Who knows.

 

[Jakey53]

Marcus Petterson. I read somewhere that the Ducks don't like to trade their first round pick in any current draft. So, if we deal with the Ducks it may be prospects.

 

[hbk]

We tried to move up to draft Fowler his draft year.

 

[SportsRacer21]

Any chance Doan would be available as a pure rental with the understanding he'll re-sign with the Yotes next year? Yotes get a 1st/good prospect and Shane gets a 2-month, playoffs-included vacation to a destination of his choosing.

Some of us wish he would. I personally hope Doan goes for a cup. But he's so committed to the area that I don't think its likely. Nothing against Doan that I want him to chase it, I just can't think of a more deserving player than Doaner.

I would take that trade in a heartbeat. But DM isn't going to approach him, and Doan isn't going to approach DM for a trade.

We've discussed this a bit this year. The armchair GMs in us all believe that if we could get a tempting enough package in return, it'd be acceptable to see Doan go to a contender as a rental. Problem is, realistically, no team is going to want Doan enough to offer the kind of package it would take to convince either Shane or Don Maloney to explore it - and even if that offer was made, if the wrong team offers the package, Doan is likely going to say no.

 

[SportsRacer21]

Thanks guys. I figured Doan wouldn't ask for a trade because he wants to spend his whole career with this organization and Maloney wouldn't approach him about it.

I think it would be great to see him go the the Panthers. Another non-traditional market that has a need for a good 3rd line winger and would probably be willing to move their 1st this year for a rental.

I disagree. If Doan expresses an interest in chasing a Cup for one Spring/Summer before returning home with a new Coyotes contract, I think we'll happily find a contender for him to join, and I think they'll happily give us a 2nd round pick for him. He's on pace for 30+ goals, and is a warrior and fantastic leader. Plus we can retain salary. We'd have an easy time getting a great return on this 39yr old rental.

Well, if Doan decided he wanted to chase a Cup, I'd hope we'd get more than a late 2nd rounder for him for the very reasons you listed above.

 

[hbk]

If Doan wants the Cup, I say we eat half cap hit, include Boedker also at half cap hit and take back Bickell to Chicago along with Grossman for Teuvo and 1st. Gift wrap it for him.

That's what I was hoping for, but I thought the Ducks not the Hawks.

If Doan is actually interested in cup chasing, this would be a great way to approach it.

 

[The Feckless Puck]

Yep. But after hearing him on Burns and Gambo today it really didn't sound at all like he wants to go anywhere.

I don't think I could be less surprised. There's absolutely nothing in his history that would even remotely suggest otherwise no matter how bad some wish that was the case.

Except for that time he nearly signed with Vancouver.

I'm down.

+1

We've found the lost city of Cibola ... the unicorn on the crazy/hot chart: something that would actually make me cheer for the blackhawks

 

[BUX7PHX]

Everything is actually starting to make me believe that when the front office mentioned changing up our core, we knew that OEL would be there, but I think he is the only player that our management definitively had in mind.

My guess is that Boedker and Hanzal will be gone prior to their contracts ending. Smith will be made available in expansion draft. Doan will eventually retire. Add OEL to those 4 names, and there is (was) our core.

Important to Coyote brass to have Doan finish his 20+ year career as Coyote...without interruption...it's even more important to Doan.

 

[hbk]

I wonder if we package NYR first as a sweetener to take Smith. We'd likely still even eat salary. Calgary a match.

Why is the interruption component important to anyone?

 

[CC96]

Honestly, I would love it if Doan decided to chase the cup, netted us some great assets, and then re-signed in the summer, but based on his comments over the years, I just don't see him leaving the Coyotes at all, even if only for a few months.
