Rumor: 2020-21 Trade Rumours and FA thread Part IV

[Mooserton]

I know it's a pipe dream. He wants to retire as a Pred. And I have huge respect for that, 1 club men regardless of sport are always very highly regarded and not that common.

Unless it’s Shane Doan. f*** that tool.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

I guess the Preds have to take back some salary for Forsberg so they’re looking at Compher

 

[LOFIN]

Unless it’s Shane Doan. f*** that tool.

Even if they are annoying and despicable as players, being a 1 club man still gets my respects.

Jost was 7/10 on faceoffs today. Honestly we all crapped on him for a couple of years but he doesn't lose (all) his board battles anymore and I'd be OK to keep him in the bottom 6 long term.

Won't be surprised if his offensive numbers take a turn in the upcoming years. Kinda like Girard's.

Zacha, Ericsson Ek, Greenway, Kempe and Roslovic are a few examples of guys who I couldn’t find any level of offensive success until they were a year older than what Jost is now.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

I honestly think it'll be a deal like JTC + Bowers/Kaut/Timmins + a pick for Jarnkrok/Granlund + Saros

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

What if Joe deals JTC + Gravy + Kaut for Jarnkrok and Ekholm?

A Mattias two-fer

 

[Belgican]

Difficult to put someone out of the lineup right now

 

[CobraAcesS]

Yeah I think like 20K people all had the same thought right after he said that.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Did Bednar say that while making direct eye contact with the Preds scout and then gave him a knowing head nod?

I think he was reading from a 3x5 card.

Forsberg + Saros

 

[CobraAcesS]

Forsberg + Saros

Won't happen, but Duchene watching the best winger on his team head to Colorado for a cup run would be priceless.

 

[Richard88]

Ahh, now we know why Compher drew in. Ok

That was my first thought as well. Compher coming in and slotting in at RW instead of 3C could be an indication that he's being showcased in his best position.

Acquire ALL the Swedes!!!

 

[Richard88]

Rinne for JTC please

Granlund, Jarnkrok, or Haula with Compher+ going the other way would make sense.

 

[Balthazar]

Granlund, Jarnkrok, or Haula with Compher+ going the other way would make sense.

For the Avs yes. For the Preds they can have nice picks for these players without having to take the big cap dump. That's a player they'll get stuck with for 2 more years.

 

[Pokecheque]

Unless it’s Shane Doan. f*** that tool.

Yeah, there’s one guy who somehow got a free pass despite being a really dirty player.

Giordano is the current guy who gets kinda overlooked for dirty play because he’s a captain and has stayed with the same team.

 

[Avsboy]

Jarnkrok + Saros is my bet

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

I gotta say, I’m not really feeling the itch for a trade right now while the Avs are rolling over teams.

I’d probably sit tight till the deadline, aside from continuing to look at the backup goalie market.

Did he mention something about a big cap dump?

If I were Sakic I'd have injury shell shock. Depth is always a good idea

Last year everytime he tried something he failed and it was depressing.

This year he’s holding his own and the 3rd line is having good chemistry.

 

[forsbergavs32]

We’re obviously buying low on Duchene to be our 3C, he thrives then we flip him in the offseason for a giant haul

 

[Peter Peckerwood]

Can we at least get our 6th back, for Pete's sake?
