All Purpose Trade / Roster Building Thread VI - We have goalies, but can they stay healthy?

[DaveG]

I’d love Phil but wonder about the cost of the trade. It’s an extended rental. I think Phil is a better choice than Tarasenko.

They seem to be most interested in draft capital right now. Honestly probably a second would get it done, they'd even likely be ok with taking on Gardner as they rebuild.

All this talk of Keller and Kessel…

If I’m dealing with the Coyotes, I want Dvorak.

Gardiner and 2nd for Kessel at 50% would be nice.

 

[AD Skinner]

Give me Kessel or give me death

 

[Highway29]

My bet is that Gardiner will be great next season if given a chance.

Slow your roll there, Kane.

Thats not bad at all.

Double or nothing! Come on man, you know I’m good for it!

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

If I go the stopgap route, give me Tatar, Donato, or Canes Legend Galchenyuk without any need to spend assets. To me, trades should be for guys with term like Keller or Dvorak.

Death too expensive, got a great deal on kneecapping

Utterly trolling Kessel by trading for him and putting him on the shutdown line in his last significant contract year.

Everyone starts out on the Staal line. At this point its a right of passage.

Besides with Nino approaching a potential down year based on his career history im sure Kessel will take that 2nd line LW spot soon enough.

 

[AD Skinner]

I would probably put him with trocheck and necas even if that means a line with 3 righties. We know niederreiter can work well with staal

 

[Unsustainable]

Kessel - Aho - Turbo
Svech - Tro - Necas
Nino - Staal - Fast
Marty - Leivo/Stepan/Lorentz

FAT line

Then Kessel would just use having 2 defensively responsible linemates as an excuse to permanently hang out in the neutral zone to cherry pick.

Seriously though, does anyone remember the Pens HBK 3rd line? Kessel played arguably some of the best hockey of his career on that line.

FTFY.

Kessel is a RW. Always has been.

 

[Wolfpuck]

He and ADA should get along quite nice.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Kessel is a RW. Always has been.

"He has always been a RW"... yet he has taken over 400 faceoffs including 3 in the last year alone.

If you're willing to lie for him about this, what else are you lying about?

What’s next? The nutritionists supply vegan hot dogs?

This was the future consideration in the Marleau trade.

This type of investigative reporting keeps me coming back to this site. I hope you continue posting here once The Athletic hires you away.

like we have lines and assigned places on the ice

Stupidity on our part. Ovi has his own office, and he goes there and get results. Coincidence, methinks not.

 

[Moosetache]

Conspiracy theory here: Canes waiting on Eichel trade to Vegas, Tuch and futures coming back. Then canes trade for Tuch.
