[IslesRock4]

You can start sending in trades. I still have to get a GM for LA and DET.

 

[Gecklund]

Sharks are listening to offers on Marleau and Couture but I will only move one of them. Also Wingels and Dillon are available for the right price.

 

[Peter Griffin]

Shopping Alex Edler, looking to get a top 15 pick in the upcoming draft or equivalent defensive prospect as part of any return.

Jannik Hansen could be moved for a late 1st or equivalent.

Jared McCann plus 33rd overall pick could be moved in order to move up in the draft or for a young, RH'ed defenseman.

Alex Burrows, Chris Higgins, Luca Sbisa and Ryan Miller can all be had for cheap. Would be willing to retain salary where neccessary.

 

[Avs44]

Our main focus is a youngish, top four, ideally puck moving defensman to play with Ekblad. We also have interest in a quality top 6 right wing.


Bjugstad and potentially Gudbranson are available for the above two pieces. Our first round pick, all prospects not named Crouse and Matheson, and Howden are also available.

 

[donut]

Main needs going into the draft are... (1) young top-6 RW and (2) young LHD defender.

I'm open to moving one of Pavelec, Hutchinson and Hellebuyck (prefer to keep Helly) if anyone's looking for a goaltender. Nothing finalized but I've had a couple inquires.

Not planning to move Scheifele, Ehlers, Connor, Trouba or the 2nd OVR selection. Little, Wheeler and Morrissey are most likely staying as well (baring an overpayment).

EDIT: Willing to part with Nic Petan/Jack Roslavic in my quest for a top RW/LHD prospect as well.

 

[LG18]

around

Bobby Ryan, Andrew Hammond and Patrick Wiercioch are currently on the block.

I do get a lot of PMs for Hoffman and Ceci, both are unlikely to move unless I get an incredible offer.

 

[Soli]

"We're getting word that Edmonton has moved their 4th overall selection in the draft... more to come"

• Looking for a Top-4 RHD of any make or model.
• Looking for a right handed forward with a good one-timer.
• Minor roster trades: Lauri Korpikoski for a pick/prospect/bottom-pairing RHD
• I'll explore moving Jordan Eberle, Benoit Pouliot, Nail Yakupov, Mark Letetsu, Mark Fayne and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.

 

[Dabest]

here

Looking to turn my team into a younger but competitive squad. More specifically, looking for a young LW, young C and young RHD

Simmonds, Morin, Sanheim, 18th overall are all available

[IslesRock4]

Looking to trade one or more of:

Josh Bailey
Jaroslav Halak
Mikhail Grabovski
Nikolay Kulemin

We want to re-vamp our top 6. Brock Nelson and Ryan Strome can be moved. Johnny Boychuk can be moved, although that is not likely. Michael Dal Colle, Anthony Beauvillier, Scott Mayfield, our 1st round pick, and more young pieces are on the table. Barzal would only be moved for the absolutely perfect winger for Tavares.

Open to ideas.

 

[CaptPantalones]

are open to talk about anyone other then tarasenko and petro.

Shattenkirk, Berglund, steen all could move.

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

OTB:

Wisniewski
Jay McClement
Ron Hainsey

 

[SLAPSHOT723]

Trying to move Andrew Shaw. RFA available for the best prospect/pick. Already got a couple good offers, best ones are a good 4th liner and a 3rd, the other is a good defenseman prospect.

Teravainen is on the block as well. It'll take less to get him if you take Bickell with him, but I want a LW that can contribute now.

 

[holden57]

Needs: top 4 RHD, top 6 winger, bottom 6 forwards
On the block: Rask, Seidenberg, Morrow, Khochklachev, Hayes, Connolly, Subban, McQuaid

 

[TribalPhoenix]

We have already made a major trade to address a need. Will announce soon.

OTB, we have the likes of Joffrey Lupul, Tyler Bozak, Jonathan Bernier, Matt Hunwick, and Peter Holland.

 

[scrappylilnobody]

- Looking to move: one of Fleury/Murray (have had some offers), prospects, picks, maybe Kunitz/Maatta/Hagelin
- Only real untouchables are Sid, Geno, and Letang. Probably won't move Kessel, Doumolin, Hornqvist either but if you have something interesting, don't be afraid to throw it out there.
- Needs: top six LW, top four defenseman, youth

 

[Dabest]

Looking to move Simmonds; looking for a young NHL stud in return. Adds on either side depending on the player

 

[scrappylilnobody]

What's a good site for cap calculator like cap geek (RIP) where I can add/remove whatever players I need to?

 

[donut]

www.capfriendly.com

IMO it's better in all aspects (compared to capgeek) aside from Armchair-GM
