I doubt the Isles would go for that.

 

[Blaylock38]

Would love him in Tor, he would seemingly stabilize the top 4 defense, his skillset is exactly what we need.

Stones incoming. Protect yourself.

 

[HOCKEYGOON]

Yikes, no thanks. Add to Kap and our first and you have the base to go after an elite defender. I'd rather sell the farm for a Trouba or someone else.

It's a lot but fits the criteria for the Isles ask of two 1st rounders.


Maybe it's too much... I trust Lou to get the right deal.

 

[Sharabhi]

Gardiner, Kapanen and a 2nd do it?

 

[Go Wings]

How would you feel if we just missed the playoffs next year and our 1st rounder became one of the top 3 picks?

Hockeygoon gets it at least.

 

[Paris in Flames]

Gardiner, Kapanen and a 2nd do it?

Huge no from Toronto imo.

Gardiner, Kapanen and a 2nd do it?

Wouldn't even consider it from Toronto's end.

 

[Critical13]

Doesn't Travis Hamonic have some of the worst advanced stats in the NHL?

Specifically, shot suppression? I am not sure if that's what Toronto needs...unless I am mistaken.

Gardiner, Kapanen and a 2nd do it?

No way, that's a lateral move at best. Hamonic isn't that much better than Gardiner, who's been great for us if you can ignore the ignorant fans. Not worth trading our best prospect and a 2nd (in a deep draft if 2018 too) for a slight upgrade that leaves us with basically an equal sized hole in defense.

[SEALBound]

Do it Toronto!

Make the suiters for Duchene plummet!!!

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Gardiner, Kapanen and a 2nd do it?

Gardiner > Hamonic


17th overall + B prospect (Bracco, Rychel, Nielson) + maybe Sharks 2018 2nd

most i'd do for Hamonic

 

[93LEAFS]

My guess is we offered either Kapanen and a 1st or Dermott and a 1st. I doubt we bite on trading both of our 2017 1st and 2018 1st (just to much risk of a regression to trade a pick blind).

 

[biotk]

Didn't he specifically request to go West?

The only trade request I ever remember from Hamonic was to be closer to home (Manitoba) because of family issues. Unless that has changed Toronto would be closer than US western teams (and the lack of border crossing reducing the extra time required when flying from the US).

He does. So depending on whom you ask, you'll get different opinions. I think his defense will improve but the numbers are concerning and asking for two firsts isn't exactly a buy low.

That's why I'm not interested in overpaying for him.

Toronto makes sense. It's a quick plane ride to Winnipeg, multiple times a day.

 

[Brock Radunske]

Gardiner, Kapanen and a 2nd do it?

What the hell is this garbage?

I wouldn't trade Gardiner for Hamonic 1 for 1

I have no problem giving up the #17 but am not interested in trading an unprotected 1st in the Dahlin/Svechnikov draft.

 

[Muston Atthews]

Give em JVR and trade for Kovalchuk. Bang 2 birds stoned at once

 

[Mats13]

Gardiner, Kapanen and a 2nd do it?

What.... the.... ****?

 

[phxblue]

Hamonic to Blues for 2 1sts.

then move Hamonic + for a top line scorer.

Before Shatty left, the Blues had an extra RHD to move and many teams offering exactly what we needed if his ******** would just agree to re-sign.

Hamonic would give the Blues back that RHD asset to move for a forward.

They are not even close really. Its like saying New York is just a quick plane ride from Miami.

Calgary is closer to Winnipeg of the teams in on Travis.
