Rumor: Possible trades with #3 OA

[XX]

Nah, teams aren't even allowed to talk to RFA's until June 30th. And can't sign an offer sheet until July 1st.

Boston must have really been at odds with Hamilton over a new contract.

They can talk to them after QOs go out. There was an offer sheet.

edit: this year it's the 30th. Anyways, they can just say they intend to sheet him. Sweeney blinked.

Maybe the agent just told Boston that they WOULD sign the first >7m offersheet. Boston took the sure thing return. Grab the assets now. Three in the hand is better than three in the bush.

Yes I do. But I said star player.

That's fair...

Maybe. You'd think they could have gotten a better haul with some smarter shopping though.

How did Philly not offer the 7th+29th? They need a RHD. Maybe they didn't want to pay a kid his age 50 million bucks?

Apparently they only talked to a handful of teams. GMs do NOT like it when you move a player like Hamilton without talking to them, especially when they feel like they could have bested the winning offer.

Philly doesn't want to spend money?

No, good sir, I'm inclined to believe that Sweeney failed his organization.

8th, Wennberg and Anisimov is appealing. Jackets fans would melt. Haha.

Yeah, I don't think the hangup is in AA or the pick. It is the question of which young F prospect. If we have to give a little bit to get Wennberg, I am okay with that. I had mentioned an AHL F and maybe a conditional 2016 pick (if we resign Anisimov) for one of the Jackets under 21yo RHD...

Yeah; Philly's in almost as much cap problems as Boston, so even if they dealt for him, they would be faced with the same problem.

But Edmonton could have easily beat that offer; not sure what Chiarelli was thinking….

Boston is trading Lucic for 13+.

So they potentially have 13,14,15

Very interesting.

Get the 22 #1 RHD cheap, pay to make your other problems go away.

 

[rt]

Boston will have ten percent of th picks in the first round. Haha.

Haven't seen that (yet). To whom?

Kings. Potentially flip some Kings assets to us for Hanifin.

Maloney would wet himself to get those 3 picks though if what he said about the top 12 was correct.

 

[AZviaNJ]

13, 14 and 15 for #3?

 

[XX]

13,14,15 + Spooner, come on Maloney, Sweeney is a generous man.

ask for Pastrnak too, then settle for your offer

I didn't think any trade would be worth giving up #3OV. That one changes my mind.

 

[Mosby]

How does this work? If Boston keeps all 3, do they call all 3 at the same time?

 

[Howler Scores]

 

[Jakey53]

That is probably the best bet.

That seems incredibly unlikely. It is more likely what mouser said and they were really just at odds with one another. But to say they traded him because someone threatened to make an offer once they were allowed to seems like a pretty big reach.

 

[Mosby]

Probably what will happen. Although this could be Maloney's "get your final offer in because the existing offers won't do it".

McKenzie said that's what went down. Either way, Calgary got a gift.
