Blue Chip Propsets

[veganbruin]

What are some actual Blue Chip Prospects that are out there in the systems of teams that would maybe want to make a deal for some of our veteran players?

I think it would really soften the blow of dealing a Milan Lucic (or anyone for that matter) if we get in return a Filip Forsberg or something of that ilk. Preferably wingers and D prospects.

Ehlers from Winnipeg
Theodore from Anaheim
Bennett from Calgary
Nurse from Edmonton

Maybe not a blue chip but I've always liked Marchment (sp) from LA. It would be cool to acquire more Marchy's.

Also I don't think many Blue Chip Prospects are available for Milan Lucic.

Be willing to bet you are wrong on that one.

 

[LouJersey]

My favorites are Adam Erne, Ryan MacInnis, Darnell Nurse, Chase DeLeo, Jimmy Vesey....not all "blue chip" but some of my favorites out there.

Its one of the few times I'd hope I'm wrong.

Nick Ritchie.

I like Ehlers, Draisaitl too. There's a big list, only problem is none of them belong to Boston

I think you might be a little off on that one. Chia was dumb, but he gave up what a lot us saw at the time (Joe Colborne) a blue chip prospect for Thomas Kaberle and people didn't see that as much of a raw deal at the time. Milan Lucic is worth a lot more to a team on the cusp with better prospects than us. I think maybe Calgary and Winnepeg are our best trading partners. Edmonton trades have been beaten to death on this board. Bennett for Lucic seems fair to me.

 

[Trap Jesus]

I guess Anaheim's group of top prospects (Gibson, Theodore and Ritchie) could be involved in a deal if they're looking to get over the hump, but it's probably unlikely. They do already have some good young D-men in place and might be willing to exclusively roll with Andersen, so Theodore and Gibson may be more likely.

Who knows what Chia will do in Edmonton. It's possible Draisaitl could be involved in a deal.

Would like to see Anaheim listen to some trades with some good young prospects. You'd be hard pressed to find a Ducks fan that would not like to see a line of:

Lucic - Getzlaf - Perry

I'm a Bruins fan and even I'd like to see that line.

might have been possible if they draft that stiff stuart in 03

Still can't believe how deep 2003 was. Ducks had 2 firsts and came out with Getzlaf and Perry in just one round.

I liked Colborne, still do, but nobody who was paying any attention considered Colborne a blue chip prospect at the time of the Kaberle deal. He was a flawed played with so e upside potential coming off a miserable first season in Providence where he was burried

 

[ThorntonFightClub*]

Talking about in house: Hamilton, Pastrnak and Subban are blue chippers.

Spooner on the borderline

I like Griffith as well, showed me alot in a very short time this season, areas that need to be improved but I think I`d put him in this category

Max a 2nd line winger but I could see him being a very comfortable player to have on the 3rd line who could add some pop

 

[BruinDust]

Only true blue-chippers I see in the Bruins organization are Pastrnak and Hamilton. That's it.

After them there are a whole bunch of good to very good young players like Spooner, Khokhlachev, Ferlin, Griffith, Krug, Subban, Heinen, McIntyre, Trotman, O'Gara, Morrow and Cehlarik.

 

[HuskyBruinPride]

Be willing to bet you are wrong on that one.

Can you name any blue chippers that you think teams potentially interested in Lucic might be willing to part with?

Anaheim makes a lot of sense to me as a possible landing spot for a guy like Lucic.

I would think that they'd at least listen on guys like Etem, Noesen, Palmeiri, Rakell, Sekac, and Theodore.

 

[Ten Thousand Hours]

might have been possible if they draft that stiff stuart in 03

Or if Anaheim drafted Lucic over Mark Mitera or Bryce Swan.

Man. Drafting a decade later sure is easy.

 

[Patrice Krejci*]

Lucic+ for Theo+Sekac

 

[Kaoz]

My favorites are Adam Erne, Ryan MacInnis, Darnell Nurse, Chase DeLeo, Jimmy Vesey....not all "blue chip" but some of my favorites out there.

Erne would be fantastic here, the fanbase would love him. Marchand with about 4" of added height and 20lbs of extra muscle. Tampa could be an interesting partner with some pretty soiid youth on the blueline as well.

Erne + Nesterov, DeAngelo, or Koekkoek would be a pretty enticing package.

Let's go for their biggest fish: Their whole scouting staff!

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Hopefully a team in EDM's division so they can continue to pulverize EDM led by Lucic.

Nick Ritchie.

I think Anaheim is the western team that makes the most sense for Boston to trade with. I like Ritchie, Theodore, and Etem. The Ducks have a must-act-now window and the cap space to make it happen.

In the East I like working with the Islanders again. Dal Colle, Reinhart, and Pulock are all great prospects, and again they have plenty of cap space. The move to Brooklyn also might generate more interest for Lucic if he doesn't already have the Islanders on his list.

I wonder if Anaheim would take Chara and if he'd waive to go there.

 

[PIMsCup]

I don't think they would give up much for him. More likely would be interested in Lucic or Ericksson.

I would look at sending Lucic 50% retained for Ritchie and a D prospect like Montour or Welinski.
