Proposal: Andrew Ladd

[Todd1a]

Should we go after Andrew Ladd ?a big power forward could help our group and pretty much he would be just a rental. It does not look like the jets want to pay him long term.

Ladd for Flips?

Ladd's $4.4M cap hit is gone after this season while Filppula has two more years on his contract after this season at $5.0M. We'd probably have to add a better pick+. #Add4Ladd

filppula and a 2nd round draft pick for ladd ? we have the extra 2nd rounder from the connolly deal last year.

 

[Sky04]

Ladd is way better than Filppula, not sure if the jets do it, they could probably get a better offer.

 

[Stammertime91]

I personally don't like the guy, so no.

But he's good, so whatever. Basically would feel the same if we got him as I did when I saw we got Coburn.

 

[Todd1a]

well we could also wait if we don't resign stamkos we could target ladd in FA on july 1st.

 

[DFC]

Can't see us landing him for anything we could afford to give up. Always considered him one of the most underrated players in the league.

Unlikely that Yzerman would do it, and IDK if Filppula is the principal they'd look for. Perhaps if they're out of contention by the deadline (which is feasible considering the way they've been losing games lately).

Gotta think they'd be more interested in prospects/picks than a guy who's roughly the same age, but worse. If they're out of contention.

If we don't want to give up much we could always trade for Alex Semin for damn near free and see if he hits it off with Kucherov. Given the amount of injuries to our top 6 and how quickly we stand to lose ground at our current pace, I wonder if it is an option Steve Yzerman takes into consideration by the trade deadline... especially if we continue to struggle like this.

Stamkos for Johansen+

If we keep going like this we will end up selling coburn and stamkos at the deadline

 

[The Gongshow]

Yea it looks more like we're gonna be selling instead of buying come trade deadline. We're not gonna be trying to get someone for a playoff push, we'll be building for the next season We're gonna miss a wild card spot by 5 points. Ottawa and Boston take the 2 & 3, Detroit & NYI take the wild card spots

If we keep playing like we are yes I see us missing the playoffs by like 6 points and coburn should fetch a low first round pick at least

I would lose my **** if Yzerman traded Stamkos around New Years. In a good way.

What a baller move. I just don't have any confidence in Stamkos becoming the Stamkos of old.

I wouldn't put it past him. He has shown time and time again he's ready to make that tough decision and if he feels he won't get Stamkos signed, it's the smartest move to try to move him. We're probably not doing much this year if they don't suddenly get hot and after each game that just feels like more and more distant thought.

We're not getting Morgan Reilly that's a pipe dream

For Steven Stamkos? Yeah, ok. We pretty much tailor the deal if we're trading Stamkos.
