Well I guess it’s unlikely Kuemper is dealt prior to the deadline, due to his injury. For the same reason, we may decide not to move Raanta for a 3rd or whatever because of the uncertainty around Kuemper.

OEL’s cap-hit and NMC make him an unlikely mid-season trade, too. So like Kuemper, I guess we’ll reevaluate the market in the off-season.

I imagine there’s a market for Hjalmarsson and I’d bet money we could get a 2nd for him. It all boils down to whether he’s okay being away from the family for one last run at the Cup. Craig Morgan seems to think Hjalmarsson is not at all open to waiving. His agent told Craig as much. So I’d place him in the “unlikely” category along with OEL, Kuemper and Raanta.

I’d put Demers as “unlikely” too just because I don’t think any playoff team would want him.

^ all of that is to say this: I’m pretty sure our entire TDL experience will be Alex Goligoski with retention for a 3rd round pick. And that’s it. Nothing more.

Someone might come calling for Brassard. Easy to fit center rental that is a career .5 ppg in the playoffs.

 

[moosemeister]

I’m with you guys. It’s down to Brassard and Goligoski now.

 

[rt]

What would Brassard realistically return? He's been a deadline acquisition a couple of times now, and it never really paid dividends. Pittsburgh gave up basically a 1st for him at the TDL and he ended up with 4pts in 12gp in the playoffs. Then Colorado gave up a 3rd for him and he put up one point in nine playoff games. I guess we're basically looking at a 5th or 6th round pick for him.

Brass like doesn’t want to play center anymore, at least that’s what it sounds like

So you're saying one playoff hat trick doesn't warrant the "big game brass" moniker?

 

[lanky]

If Raanta is healthy then we have to deal him.
Hill and Prosvetov can help us limp along til Kuemper is back.

I don't think there's any real demand for a goalie that is never ready to play.

With a career .920 and season .916 there would be a taker.

As long as it's three pieces that'll hurt them to move, I'm fine with it.

Has to start with their top prospect Jack Studnicka. And I'd want HEAVY adds from there.

 

[JasonDemersWasOkay]

Would need at least studnicka and debrusk and a pick. With our luck, debrusk would bottom out here while Garland would flourish in Boston

 

[moosemeister]

Yup. Studnicka is a must. I'd be happy to get Lauzon out of this deal too. If they need a D body back, they can have Bushy, Oesterle or Goligoski at 50%.

DeBrusk, Studnicka, Lohrei, 22 1st

I couldn't pass that up. Even if DeBrusk has very little value at this point.

 

[Canis Latrans]

Feel like Demers could still be moved with the justification that it's a numbers game here for his usage, he's a veteran who won't cost the acquiring team a lot of capspace with how much remains this season, and his contract is running out. Coyotes can probably retain some salary on the deal even to up the return. I think it just comes down to injuries elsewhere in the league and need for depth. I don't dismiss it entirely, though realize it's probably hinging on a lot.

How can you miss with a name like STUDnicka?

How can you miss with a name like STUDnicka?

Easy. He becomes an Arizona Coyote. He will miss everything

Friedman says AZ is 'looking at rebuilding' although the way he phrased it, it wasn't definitive. But he said BA doesn't want late picks and a basket of value for Garland. The ask is bluechip prospects and/or high picks.

"If you're coming for Garland, what I've heard is: don't screw around. You have to make a really good offer. And now that it's out there, I think [teams] are going to." "These teams are smart, they understand what this is going to cost you"

[moosemeister]

Don’t screw around almost sounds like a direct quote from BA haha

 

[RemoAZ]

I just don't see any offer coming that would be worth losing our only semi-proven young scorer. The prospect would have to be "can't miss" for a start. Even if we are rebuilding again, Garland is the right age and talent to start rebuilding with. We should be looking at all the guys over 25 to trade for a rebuild.

Doesn't Garland fit that over 25 category?
