Clowe has been awful, is injured, slow, and a rental. He's being overvalued immensely. At this point he's a bottom 6 guy who can chip in offensively and scrap.
All I said was that Iginla's return would have no bearing on Clowe's, though I didn't realize (as Marc pointed out) that Clowe has a full NTC, which could change things.
Anyway all I'll say in response is that you just have to look at past deadlines to find players who shouldn't have gotten the returns they did. Who thought we'd get a 2nd and a decent prospect for Hal Gill? Who saw Gaustad getting a 1st?
All it takes is one GM who desperately wants to fill a need, and boom...there's your overpayment.
Leblanc + Nashville 2rd pick vs Clowe
I'll do it. No doubt.

Trade deadline frenzy comes only one time a year. It's so much fun to hear rumor and to speculate on it. Please, let us use credible and "non-credible" rumor. It's a fun time of the year.

I really don't want bergevin to be that desperate guy
seriously someone WILL give them a 1st and a youngster, so let's not even bother he's not worth wasting our time
Unfortunately us lowly mods don't make the rules
Well except maybe Crim.
Yeah, talk to him

If we sign Clowe to an extension after this year I'd definitely do it, with Gallagher's emergence and Collberg/Kristo there isn't really much room for Leblanc anymore in our system.
He's had an off-year offensively but Clowe brings tons of intangibles that this team needs.

We're not giving a first rounder for a guy who has 0 goal this year.
I'd be fine with Leblanc + our 2nd.
Wouldn't be horrible especially...
A-if Clow goes back to being a 50 point calibre guy here
B-we can sign him before July 1st at a reasonable price(3 years 12.5-13 mil or therebouts)
That being said I would prefer trading Weber or another "B" prospect other than LeBlanc. I think he is better than he's shown this year and will bounce back next year. Yes he isn't indispensable for us, but I think he has more value than somebody else who we may be able to move(Pateryn? Quailer?).
Dumb penalties, perimeter play, laksidasical approach to gameplay etc?
Agree.
Mods, you don't actually take this board seriously, do you?
You would sign Clowe for 3 years at 13 million but not at 2 years/6.5 million?
