Boedker Contract/Deadline Speculation

Quite a few defensemen we may be asking for?

3 - Montour (ANA)
4 - Dunn (STL)
8 - Wotherspoon (NYI)
9 - Gravel (LA)

If TB calls, hopefully Maloney enquires about no.1 Drouin.

Huge fan of Dunn. IMO he is the most skilled guy on Niagara. Yes, ahead of Ho-Sang and Perlini.

So.... What should we do w extra $ next year that we aren't using on Boedker?

There is this guy in NY named Keith something or other

It kind of depends what we get for Boedker, at the moment probably defense.

A. Buy out Smith.
B. Sign Yandle.
C. ???
D. Profit!

It's believed the Blues have made calls to the Bruins and Coyotes about their available forwards the prices are pretty steep. They may come down before Monday morning and that may mean the Nashville Predators get involved in the forward market as well

 

[Mosby]

Also, in terms of reallocating Boedker $, I wouldn't mind signing a guy like Troy Brouwer to play RW. Gives us some balls. Will also need those $ if one of these Myers/Trouba/etc ideas come to fruition.

I'd be absolutely shocked if we got a defenseman in a Boedker trade today or tomorrow that means much to our roster next season.

What I meant was if we get more forward prospects I would look at spending the Boedker money on D. When teams are contending for the cup, many times good or very good prospects are available because the window for winning the cup is small.

D. Profit!

Thanks for the laugh

One of these 3 teams is the most likely, given cup windows and the mighty Hawks TDL acquisitions.

Saw something yesterday that if the Ducks make a deal for a winger, it'd include one of their young D. I'll see if I can find the tweet again.

I think we can and should get a (next years) first round pick out of Boedker.

If I'm not mistaken, that gives us three firsts for next year.

Come draft day we trade the three (to Edmonton, of course) for the first overall and draft Mathews.

I'd do a backflip if we get one of their young D for bods.

With the quality of the picks, I doubt even Edmonton would do that:
AZ 1 - currently #7 (it might drop to 5 by the end of the season)
NYR 1 - currently #24

EAST bubbles - Ottawa #10, Carolina #11 & 26, NJ #12, and PHI #13
Other EAST - Boston #21 & #17
Other WEST - Colorado #15, Nashville #18, St. Louis #27

Of the above, only Carolina and Boston have two firsts. TB and PHI each have two seconds and might sacrifice their first (especially if we threw in our 2nd).

The only picks that may convince whoever has the 1st overall pick to consider that type of offer would be Ottawa (#10), Carolina (#11), NJ (#13), PHI (#13), or perhaps COL (#15). Given that, even the best (#5, #10, and #24) would still most likely not get Matthews

That would be my concern as well, but first round picks (wherever) they land seem to have quite a bit of appeal. Remember, they can be used as bargaining chips as well, for whomever (Edmonton ) has them.

Dreger: LA doesn't seem keen on adding Boedker

Wasn't interested dealing with LA anyways. Anaheim sure, LA can get bent

 

[KG]

If we get attract a 1st, I'd rather have a prospect. Ladd seems the only one to return max value currently

Even if that first and others could be parlayed into Mathews?

Or do you believe my suggestion to be far too absurd?

Or risky....

imo "and" will become "or" probably by later today.

Boedker is now looking at a short term prove it contract after demanding and getting/refusing long term/big $ deal after a series of short term prove it contracts. His agent should be fired.

He should, he won't.

Staal off the market. More bidders for Boedker.
