Rumor: In-season Proposals, Rumors, Free Agents & Roster Moves (related topics) LXXVIII

[The Mars Volchenkov]

Im calling hejda goes for 2nd, briere goes for 3rd + 4th. And that is it for the avs on trade deadline day.

There's no way Briere gets two draft picks, let alone two draft picks that high.

Tons of interest in McLeod.

Hope he re-signs, though.

I bet McLeod could get a solid return. Especially a McLeod/Hejda package. I don't want him to go anywhere though.

Damn, if Briere gets a 3rd and 4th... Hell, I'd take a 7th.

Anyway, I'll predict Hejda and a 4th for a 1st. Briere for a 5th, O'Reilly, Seimins, and a 3rd for Zadorov, Grigorenko, and one of their late 1sts.

"Hope he re-signs though"...?

He already re-signed, are you cracking wise, my old friend?

??? Re-sign?

kind of speaking of which, I know we all complained about his extension, but at least we didn't give him what Clifford got from the Kings.

My first thought.

I don't think the Kings will have an issue moving Clifford if they really need too. I know he's bald, but he's only 24 years old. SOME team would want him still.

How good is 3rd + 3rd compared to 2nd + 4th? Which one should we take?

I'd rather have the 2nd. 3rd/4ths are much more similar.

My question is world we rather have a 2016 2nd or a 2015 3rd? I guess that's my prediction on Hejda. A 5th for Briere.

2016 2nd.

 

[CB Joe]

If it's an early 2015 3rd vs a late 2016 2nd, I'd probably want the 3rd. If we're assuming the picks are going to be around the same spot than i'd want the 2nd.

Hench do you know if they're serious about Andreas Martinsen?

No idea... I don't know anybody within the Avs organization.

Colaiacovo NOT on waivers means 2 things. #1 If Timonen is to play a trade needs to happen…#2 I will have to spell Colaiacovo again.

Ok thanks for the reply. Just thought I'd ask since you know they're into Casey Bailey. Ever since they've been rumored to be scouting Martinsen I've been kind of monitoring his season. Seems like a more offensively gifted Everberg.

Well Ek does seem to have Flyers connections. I forgot about the Timonen angle. Guess Nashville's not interested anymore with Franson. Flyers are out of the playoffs and still have to dump salary to get under the cap?

They can send Coburn over here real cheap...

 

[Foppa2118]

I wouldn't put it past them to make a deal for Coburn at some point. It sure seems like that's probably who they were interested in earlier in the year.

Even though he's struggled a bit with the bigger role, I still think he could be a good two way D man. Just needs a scenery change and a lesser role.

If the Avs need a top pairing replacement, and a second pairing Hejda type, he should probably be the Hejda type.

So if Giordano's injury keeps the Flames from making the playoffs, does he become available in the off-season?

No. They have no one to replace him. He seems to like it in Calgary and the Flames are on the rise. He still has a couple of great years left.
Why would they move him?

They also do not need ROR if that is what you are intending to propose.

Because he only has one year left on his deal, and they're still committed to rebuilding despite the success this year. I don't think they'll actively look to move him before next years deadline, but I'm sure they'll listen to offers, and might hear one they like.

My guess is he is a July 1st extension guy.

I would be shocked if Gio hasn't signed an extension at that point.
Burke / Treliving are not that dumb.
They are not gonna trade their captain and veteran leader who still has 3-5 quality years left at least. They will pay him. And there is no reason why Giordano would want out.

 

[hockeyfish]

I think a big trade is about to go down. Or not, what do I know
