Why do I feel a EDM-BOS trade for a RW like Hemsky is in order.. Cheaper and fills need.

I've been waiting for that move to happen for a year now. What goes EDM's way you think>?

 

[patty59]

They said on TSN that the Oilers weren't done and that Hemsky may be dealt.

Would be a good option for Horton replacement and has history and chemistry already with Krejci. Only 2y left to his deal I believe.

He only has one year left at 5M and the Bruins can buy low on this guy. Like Caron and McQuaid or something like that.

Cheaper, isn't he a 5 or 6 mil guy?

 

[Danton Heineken]

Ales Hemsky might be the softest player in the league.

 

[patty59]

Cheaper, isn't he a 5 or 6 mil guy?

For one year. He's a good player, had some injury problems and fell out of favor when the young guys came in

I'd do it at this point.

Although I don't know what the Oilers would be looking for.

 

[Man Rocket]

at 2.5m (half retained by EDM) sign me up though

 

[Fire Sweeney]

4.9M 5 years for Steve Weiss in Detroit

 

[SPV]

Iginla still out there, and Ryder too. Didn't I read earlier that more than 50% of signings were done in the first three hours last year.
I think that's why I've been refreshing all day, but I'm happy we steered clear of what has been handed out so far today!!!


and wow, Weiss just got 5 per from Detroit!!!

 

[patty59]

Not true, maybe the most injury prone, but not softest

 

[BallroomBitz]

"Injury problems" *shutter*

That's what scares me about him.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

Boychuk

 

[ranold26]

Yeah 5m, but you get the term YOU want, not what the player wants.

 

[The Special K]

Just sign Brunner.

 

[Trap Jesus]

That Weiss signing could be pretty good for the Wings. Reasonable cap hit for the player that he could be.

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

Boychuk

See, that's a deal I wouldn't touch.

 

[Lord Ahriman]

I'd do it at this point.

Although I don't know what the Oilers would be looking for.

I think they still need defense. McQuaid for Hemsky at $2.5M, sign me up.

 

[Man Rocket]

Just sign Brunner.

i agree

 

[patty59]

Boychuk

Probably not even. More like McQuaid and someone

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

"Injury problems" *shutter*

That's what scares me about him.

You'd only have him for a year.

And the Bruins roster is far more able to keep Hemsky protected than the Oilers were. We have some size and toughness up front.

 

[remer]

Wow! Big winners today so far:

1. Detroit- Alfie and Weiss- might be 1st in the East
2. Toronto- 3 good moves- Bozak, Clarkson and Bernier - 2nd in the East

Big Losers:

1. Ottawa- Ouch!!!
2. Boston- Losing- Horton, Sequin, Jagr, Peverely, Ference

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

I think they still need defense. McQuaid for Hemsky at $2.5M, sign me up.

Quaider I'd do... No to Boychuk though.

I wouldn't even make Edmonton eat salary.

 

[Bruwinz37]

Kelly for Hemsky then sign Filpula.
