Speculation: CBJ Asks from EDM for Josh Anderson...

[Hierso]

Maybe the Oilers haven given them several proposals in true HF-Quality and this is just the Jackets roundabout way to telling them to stop.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Anderson has 25-30 goal scoring potential and can be signed for long. RNH is UFA next season.

replace 1st with 2nd and it’s fair

year after next season. So a year and a half of RNH, a top defensive prospect, and a 2nd? Unless there’s a josh Anderson that doesn’t have 1 goal in 26 games this is still absolutely crazy.

 

[North]

Sounds like they don't want to trade Anderson.

Keep him then. Jarmo thinks Chia is still in charge.

Anderson has 25-30 goal scoring potential and can be signed for long. RNH is UFA next season.

Josh Anderson has 4 points this year, please.

This is horrible.

RNH + Bouchard + 2nd is fair for Josh Anderson? I love Anderson, but he has 4 points this year. He's worth a fraction of that.

 

[FreeMcdavid]

Its probably over-priced but CBJ isnt desperate to move JA.

for comparison, Tampa was willing to move JT miller for cap purposes and it only cost the Canucks a 1st and 3rd.

fair value for JA is probably 1st and Broberg

 

[MoistDadBod]

Just tracked down the actual discussion via a podcast version of the radio show and Staufer actually suggested their ask for Anderson would be:

1. Ryan Nugent Hopkins OR
2. Broberg or Bouchard and a 1st round pick

Research! It's really not worth doing basically ever.

 

[dm1371]

Wasn't this guy worth a first round pick earlier? What happened exactly?

Nope.

 

[CupofOil]

He would be a good fit for Edmonton, but obviously not at that price.

Something like a 1st and one of those 2 D is more reasonable...and I think Edmonton could afford it.

Imagine J.Anderson on a line with McDavid and Draisaitl!

What? A 1st+ Broberg or Bouchard is reasonable for a guy with one season over 30 points and 4 points this season? That's nuts. I'd consider Broberg straight up, that's about it.

This is the interview. The Josh Anderson talk starts at 18:55.

Sportsnet colour analyst Louie DeBrusk - Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer - Omny.fm

I just listened to it again. I don't think he floated it out as a rumor. I think he said if the Oilers wanted to acquire Anderson the price would be ridiculous, therefore it's not happening.

 

[North]

Wasn't this guy worth a first round pick earlier? What happened exactly?

He’s struggling something awful and they are trying to get a premium for him.

 

[FreeMcdavid]

Josh Anderson has 4 points this year, please.

This is horrible.

He has been and still is battling an injury.

if you were trading for a Josh Anderson with 15 goals already this year at 25 yrs old and 6'3 it would cost waaaaay more than the proposed offer.

 

[oXo Cube]

Sounds like Bob got told the Oilers aren't in on Anderson so he's inventing an insane ask to make the team he works for look better.

 

[MoistDadBod]

isnt Nuge a ufa this season? dont think he wants to stay in Edmonton.

If i was Edmonton i would do this as long as the 1st round pick is protected, but then again im not very high on Broberg or Bouchard, especially Bouchard.

Nope, 1 more year after this. Anderson is though!

 

[ChaoticOrange]

He has been and still is battling an injury.

Jesus Christ.

We need to sell Zack Kassian while the selling’s good. Apparently we could get a top 6 C, a first, and a top prospect for any old big slug with 15 goals

 

[SupremeTeam16]

Reasonable but I think McDavid + Draisaitl is what it would have to be.

*checks Anderson’s stats*

yeah definitely

 

[Maylo]

He’s struggling something awful and they are trying to get a premium for him.

"They are" not trying anything.

 

[FreeMcdavid]

Once again Oil nation is hung up on draft picks and prospects rather than trading for a real life proven NHL power forward.

Of all the fan bases you'd think Oil nation would be the first to tell you to always go for the sure thing instead of potential celings etc.....

 

[ViD]

RNH + Bouchard + 2nd is fair for Josh Anderson? I love Anderson, but he has 4 points this year. He's worth a fraction of that.

He played with an injury and we value him a lot since we know what to expect from him, however at this price we would feel okay sending him to EDM

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Take out rnh and add puljujarvi and cap dump and you can have rakell

we could have a lot of guys for RNH Broberg and a 1st and all of them would have more than four points.

 

[North]

"They are" not trying anything.

Not sure why you felt compelled to reply to that but okay.

 

[SHANNYPLAN]

Lol I like Anderson, but this is ridiculous

 

[FreeMcdavid]

Jesus Christ.

We need to sell Zack Kassian while the selling’s good. Apparently we could get a top 6 C, a first, and a top prospect for any old big slug with 15 goals

not even in the same league.

Kassian and his career high 15 goals and 29 points at 28 yrs old vs JA at 25 yrs old w. career high 27 goals.

Put JA with Mcdavid and he would score 40.

 

[Henkka]

Quite and ASK.

No wonder Holland is tourning towards Detroit players for more reasonable price.

Oilers’ Holland looks to make a deal with the Wings
