[fieldset=""]Trades

• All trades must be sent to IslesRock4 and AnalogMan or else they are not valid.
• Once a trade is agreed upon, send it in BEFORE POSTING, and then you can announce it in the thread. A deal without a NTC or NMC does not have to be approved.
• If a trade is announced prior to it being sent in, it will be vetoed.
• ALL MOVES MUST BE SOMEWHAT REALISTIC. The commissioners hold the power to veto any ridiculous trades.
• A trade involving a NTC or NMC must be sent in by BOTH GMs with a reasoning for the player to waive. The trade must be approved by BOTH trade managers prior to posting. Keep in mind it will only be on a rare occasion that a NTC or NMC is waived.
• If a trade involving a NTC or NMC is announced before approval, it will be vetoed.
• If a team does not have enough cap space to complete a trade that has been sent in, the trade will be vetoed.
• Vetoed deals will require a significant re-work in order for them to be accepted.
• If a player waives his NTC or NMC, the NTC or NMC is still valid with their new team.

[IslesRock4]

Looking to take a slightly different route than many do with Minny. We are looking to bring in a higher end #1 center, as well as a top 4 LHD, top 4 RHD, and a goalie improvement on Harding/Kuemper.

Niklas Backstrom is available for very little. He has a limited NTC.

Pieces available to move are:

Mikko Koivu (NMC)
Charlie Coyle
Nino Niederreiter
Mat Dumba
Jason Zucker
Erik Haula
Justin Fontaine
Marco Scandella
Jared Spurgeon
Jonathon Blum
Kyle Brodziak
Harding/Kuemper
Zack Phillips
Gustav Olofsson
Christian Folin
Zack Mitchell
Mario Lucia
Johan Gustafsson
Brett Bulmer
2014 and 2015 1st round picks

Not looking to move Koivu for picks/prospects, but will consider all options. Hoping to trade him straight up for a good defenseman or a forward + defenseman depending on the quality of the players offered.

Parise and Suter are totally off the table, and I'd need a really good reason to move Pominville, Granlund, or Brodin.

If anyone wants Matt Cooke or Keith Ballard, let me know.

 

[this providence]

I'm hearing the the Blackhawks are making Patrick Kane available. #WOW

[C-Saku Koivu MTL]

Available for pick or prospect Dennis Wideman, Ladislav Smid, David Jones. Might be willing to take a contract in return or retain some salary if it makes sense.

Dangling Sven Baerschi in a deal for a establish player or in a swap for a different type prospect.

Lots of prospect available but it will have to be for young players since we are rebuilding.

Heh, the game started before the Flyers traded Hartnell, right?

Calgary Flames have acquire the right's of defenceman Zach Redmond from the Winnipeg Jets in return of a 2015 7th round pick, and then sign Redmond to a 2 year deal worth a total of 1.6mil$.

The Boston Bruins have acquire the UFA rights to Willie Mitchell in exchange for our 2014 4th round pick, we have another trade announcement coming, pending a no trade clause waiver.

 

[CoachBadkitten]

are looking to add to the future of this franchise, so guys like Teddy Purcell, Matt Carle, Ryan Malone, Eric Brewer, Sami Salo, could all move.

Looking for a young top defenseman, so some of my young forwards and prospects could move.

Jonathan Drouin, Steven Stamkos, and Victor Hedman are untouchable.

 

[TLinden]

Shopping Boyles UFA rights.

We have a ton of assets on the block, see our roster post for more details. Looking for a Top line LW, willing to part with the 5th OVR to make it happen.

Would consider swapping Josh Bailey with another forward needing a change of scenery.

 

[this providence]

Johnny Oduya has generated some interest. Unsure if he will move but if you're interested, lets talk.

Versteeg could easily be had.

Would like to move Leddy for a forward in a similar situation.

Currently listening to offers on Bickell as well...
