If the #habs fail to make the playoffs, there are no picks involved in the Vanek trade. Would just be Vanek for Collberg.
Wings should trade for Calle Jarnkrok.
Wow what an awful ****ing trade. Didn't Holland say he was not going to move any young pieces for rentals?
Fluto Shinzawa of The Boston Globe reports the Canucks had a deal set to go with the Boston Bruins on trade deadline day that would’ve sent Alex Edler to the Bruins, but there was a hangup:
They were waiting for the Canucks to deal Ryan Kesler to Pittsburgh first.
As we know, that never happened. The Penguins’ deal for Kesler was reportedly for Brandon Sutter and draft picks, but the two sides couldn’t agree. According to Shinzawa, the Bruins were set to send either Ryan Spooner or Alexander Khoklachev and Matt Bartkowski to Vancouver for Edler.

Apparently the Bruins had a deal in place for Edler that fell through when Pittsburgh didn't get Kesler.
What would the equivalent have been from Detroit? That price seems lower than a lot of people were speculating.
By those names it looks like they were looking for centers.
May be something around Janrkrok + Kindl + pick comparing to the Alexander Khoklachev and Matt Bartkowski deal.
koko is like calle, sheahan is like spooner imo.
bart is closer to dekeyser than kindl.
ot but edler was kind of bad in last night's dallas game. at least through first 2 periods, didn't watch the third.
I agree with the forwards pretty much but with Sheahans size I would give him a slight higher value. In regards to Bart thats why I added Kindl and the pick. Plus I'm the last person left in the Kindl fan club.
Would cost more than we can even offer to land Weber.
It comes down to names, i would be very interested in Ehrhoff if the price is right. It comes down to availability and in terms of names you are willing to part with it depends on who is truly available out there within reason in terms of cost.
As Tatar and Nyquist are quite promising right now, i won't trade them away - even if it's for a guy like Ehrhoff.
Question itself - trading young players away for a value asset like Ehrhoff - totally depends on the players u think of.
