Who would we be willing to trade? Lets be reasonable. I say Edler, Weber and a 3rd

[WTG]

Edler weber and a 3rd

 

[Yggdrasil]

That's a good option.

Hutton Tanev
Hamhuis Hamonic
Sibsa Biega

 

[The Stig]

Edler weber and a 3rd

Man me and you have been in sync lately

 

[Raistlin]

Meh..... there is no way we can outbid Chiarelli with all of his young assets, and if he doesn't land him, Edmonton will riot.

that said, our soon to be FAs plus a 2nd will be a good starting point. Hammer, Vrbby, Shink, 2nd from Torts.

 

[Jack Tripper]

top four of tanev, hamonic, edler and hutton for the forseeable future wouldn't be bad at all

and that hamonic contract is a ridiculous bargain...3.857 cap hit through 2020 (just 0.2 million above the cap hit for sbisa)

problem is that winnipeg and edmonton can easily outbid vancouver in this one, and if the islanders want a comparable player then the only candidate the canucks can throw in the deal is tanev

[Billy Kvcmu]

There's no way we get him unless we really overpaid.
Vrbata + 1st + Weber+ Subban or Briesbois

 

[Knight53]

Have not sucked long enough as the Oilers or Jets to have the assets to trade for him, do not want to deal any of our young prospects we have finally accumulated.

 

[Nuckles]

I wouldn't move Tanev or Hutton as it seems counter-productive to the direction our team is heading.

I probably wouldn't offer more than Edler + Cassels (or maybe Edler+Demko for Hamonic+Ilya Sorokin). People act like Hamonic is miles ahead of Edler, but I don't see it, and the Isles are in a situation where Hamonic might not hold his full value. For the Canucks they get a guy who is 4 years young, holds a cheaper cap hit, and has a right handed shot to give our lineup more balance.

But alas, I don't see Edler waiving his NTC, and I have a feeling Edmonton might go HAM on their offer for him seeing as he's exactly the type of player they need and have been looking for for a few years (and they definitely have the assets to acquire him).

 

[The Drop]

Tanev Horvat Shinkaruk...

 

[Huggy]

They want to win now.

I suggest

Hamhuis
Vrbata
Higgins

or

Edler (50% retained)

Doubt 2nd deal is plausible, Edler would laugh and play even harder.

 

[Knight53]

Snow is gonna fleece a desperate Chiarelli again.

 

[Josepho]

Totally not against trading Virtanen/Subban/Cassels/CBJ 2nd. Otherwise I want our future stuff to stay.

 

[Huggy]

They want to win now, they don't want prospects.

Higgins and Vrbata are the pieces with Hamhuis or Edler.

Higgins (50% retained)
Vrbata
Edler

1st
Hamonic

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

They want to win now, they don't want prospects.

Higgins and Vrbata are the pieces with Hamhuis or Edler.

Higgins (50% retained)
Vrbata
Edler

1st
Hamonic

They want Young promising defenseman too
Vrbata + 2nd + Subban + Hamhuis

 

[McHortton]

I said Edler straight up in the gm thread but I'd probably add a little on to him.

 

[DFAC]

Edler won't waive his NTC, Hamhuis isn't enough and I don't want to trade Tanev.

I think Hamonic is a great player but we just don't have the pieces to acquire him

 

[Wilch]

Watch Benning trade Hutton and a 2nd for Hamonic and 7th.

 

[McHortton]

Edler won't waive his NTC, Hamhuis isn't enough and I don't want to trade Tanev.

I think Hamonic is a great player but we just don't have the pieces to acquire him

Pretty much this, but you never know maybe if Edler was asked he would go.

 

[Rex Banner]

I'd be over the moon if the Isles would do Edler straight up.

 

[Eddy Punch Clock]

Oilers aren't Western Canada as much as they are Northern Canada.

 

[Huggy]

Watch Benning trade Hutton and a 2nd for Hamonic and 7th.

NYI wouldn't make that trade anyway, maybe a 1st

 

[Addison Rae]

He's okay, kind of overrated. Wouldn't move Edler for him but if they're looking to compete I'd easily offer up Hamhuis+futures.

 

[Addison Rae]

If we move Tanev for Hamonic I'll cry
