Value of: NJ and PHI - What would you trade for Gaudreau?

[prototypical4thliner]

CGY wouldn’t touch that. Diminish returns here. They’re in compete mode and won’t move him for young players/picks needing time to acclimate.

It would cost us something we don’t want to give up

At minimum, this years first and konecny. Plus I would probably think.

That certainly is a minimum for Johnny Hockey, but they’d want something if substance not +++, you know?

 

[Hockeyholic]

Nolan Patrick for Gaudreau?

 

[Starat327]

The flyers shouldnt be pursuing upgrades at wing at the expense of other roster players. Giroux-JVR-Lindblom is perfectly adequate LW depth.

I cant put together a package that both a) i'd be comfortable offering and b) Flames fans would accept.

 

[AndHeMissedTheNet]

Lindblom + Gostisbehere + pick #11 + 2020 1st

 

[Eggtimer]

Devils don’t have anything the flames want
All we have worth anything are picks and 1 year of Hall.
Flyers would be better trade partners.
Would love either of course but not possible

Lindblom + Gostisbehere + pick #11 + 2020 1st

there is no chance I would trade that for Gaudreau.

 

[TorontoTrades]

Gaudreau is probably the second most valuable winger in the league in terms of trade value. (Kucherov)

Signed at 6.75 for 3 more years.

Not a chance he is moved.

No kidding...that is an absurd amount for a player that disappears in the playoffs.......not at interested until Johnny's contract is up and we can get him for free.

Stamkos for Gaudreau who says no?

Gaudreau needs a big 1C to plough through defenses. Playoff hockey when the game tightens with more hitting, Gaudreau is useless.

He might be a good player, but needs big body support.

It’s a pipe dream, but the flyers do have that.

 

[Limeyjim]

Why would NJ be considered? Gaudreau was born an raised in South Jersey, and he grew up supporting the Philadelphia Flyers. The Flyers would be his dream destination, but I doubt Fletcher would deal away the talented prospects in the Flyers system to acquire Johnny Hockey!

 

[goonybird]

Devils have nothing that wouldn't be a downgrade for Calgary or absolutely gut their future.

 

[StoneHands]

Voracek, Konecny, and 2020 1st. Calgary can still be in "win now" mode while also grabbing a good young player and another prospect. Doubt they accept it but that's the most I would do.

Dude veto so-so-so hard from the Flyers POV

I just look at it like this, you bring in a young player on a great contract which coincidentally ends the same year as Giroux's deal so Gaudreau can be extended using that space assuming Giroux starts to decline and either leaves or takes a lesser deal going forward. They probably end up saving close to $6m in cap space that can be used to go out and grab someone like Panarin and still leave space to sign the rest of the young guys moving forward. The 1st next year could very well be in the mid to late 20s so it's not a lock that it's a high end prospect. I'm also not as high on Konecny as most Flyers fans so maybe that plays into it. Sometimes I think he's got rocks for brains.

I have it on very good authority that Johnny's family would be over the moon with New Jersey as a destination. Considering he is almost literally as far away from his family as can be, they would be quite happy with the Devils

 

[tmurfin]

We won't be able to agree on anything. CGY would want Hall, and NJ would want to send futures and younger, less proven players.

Not saying this is factual, but if Hall made it clear he wasn't 100% going to sign with Jersey, I think this would be a good fit for both teams

 

[ItMe]

Voracek + 11OA + Morin

Yeah this is one of those “oh he’s from there let’s send him home” things that doesn’t actually take into consideration the needs of either team

It’s also an extreme knee jerk reaction to want to trade him in the first place

 

[mercury]

Voracek + 11OA + Morin

No, thank you.

 

[Dooble08]

No, thank you.

What about 11OA, Myers, and Voracek?

 

[DualThreat23]

Not one person has mentioned Couturier...if Calgary really explored a Gaudreau trade with the Flyers, I wouldn't do the deal without Couturier included in the deal.

Theres a reason for that.
