Rumor: Rumor & Proposal Thread Vol. 11: Nucks pull the trigger

[Jumptheshark]

I love the OP
"picks and crap"

sadly I changed before those offended by it complained about it

 

[Chooch]

It is. He just talked so much **** about rebuilding that he can't say that word and not look like a tool.

I doubt this is what Feaster wanted to do, he was probably ordered to do it by Ken King.

 

[Asher]

Does JayBo's salary not put the Blues in cap trouble?

Surely not, because you'd have to give up a rostered players to get him, right? Oh....

 

[OilerFan4Life]

Well the Blues are gonna be a better team now damnit.

BUT, Halak did get injured tonight (never hope for an injury but....) so maybe some hope for us.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

I thought Feaster wasn't going to rebuild.

Of course not. This is just a simple retooling, not a rebuild. The Flames aren't interested in wandering through the desert. Feaster said it himself, “You know what? I look forward to the Battle of Alberta for the next X number of years. If the idea is, ‘Burn it to the ground,’ then Ken can find another manager to do it.â€



As much fun as I'm having right now, if we lose against the Flames tonight that's just pathetic. I'm cheering for a win though.

 

[MetaOil1993]

Damn that St Louis got Jaybo....Its going to be even tougher to make the playoffs.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

I really wish we got JayBo for around that same price, he would have helped us so much.

I wouldn't have moved the Oilers' first for him

 

[knockoutpanda]

We're going to need to make some moves before deadline if we want to push for post season

Steady on the plough. Move out players not in the future but do not make moves for now make them only if they benefit us in the years to come.


I am a bit worried that Calagary has three picks in the first round I do not want them to get Lazar if we do not get him.

 

[SometimesY]

Wow, not sure if it is a good strategy or not to make the trades before Trade Deadline Day.. Feaster is loading up on Firsts though isn't this a deep draft? He has 3 already doesn't he? His Pittsburgh and now St. Louis.

just realized if Kipper goes to TO maybe he ends up with 4 first rounds.. one with a potential to be first overall.. the whole 'not rebuild' in one year!' kinda cool actually

 

[Jumptheshark]

-Has been confirmed that Leafs ARE talking directly with Kippers agent as we speak
-Glencross is reportedly being shopped heavily
-fan590 reported that the Flames have also either made calls or have been called about Alex Tanguay, Mike Cammalleri and Lee Stempniak


That loud boom we just heard was the flames rebuilding officially starting

Thats ok i still got a laugh while it lasted
Great work btw, maintaining the first post

New owner is SUPPOSEDLY opening up the purse strings next year...

but if that were true why would a good hockey man like JD bolt for the Bluejackets??

Honestly...I think the Blues are in HUGE trouble...

25 million to spend on next years cap with the following players to be signed:
Pietrangelo: Minimum Tyler Myers money 5.7 million
Shattenkirk: 4 million IMO...Subban's salary brings his money down a bit.
Cole: 1.5
Russell: 1.5
Stewart: 4.5 million
Berglund: 4.5 million
with about 5 UFAs like Leopold, Redden, Nichol, Porter etc.

 

[The Bored Man]

These pictures give us an idea of how negotiations went

thank you

will continue it unless someone else create the next thread--If I am around when this hit 980 or so-- I will create the next one

On deadline day--I have a special GDT for trade Game Day talk-- unless someone else creates it first

They already have three first round picks and something tells me if they trade kipper another first will be coming their way

 

[stratedge]

If the Oilers don't win this game, then they might as well rent out all their pending UFAs too, and do a Gagner deal while they're at it. Every game is must win, especially against down and out Calgary, no matter how much piss and vinegar they come out with.

If this is true, I'd really hope we're interested. I know the Oilers and GlenX had a bad break up, but he'd give the Oilers something we've been lacking up front. On a decent contract none-the-less.

At the very least, I hope we inquire about the price. With Feaster so happy to help other teams out, maybe we could take advantage?

 

[Oiltankjob Fail]

Well Stauffer was right earlier this year he said Blowmeester could be had for little

if we lose this game--lynch the players

Maybe the next GDT should be Oilers vs. Abbotsford Heat.

Not that the Flames are tanking or anything. No, they would never do such a thing.

 

[enthropi]

JBo is the most non-factor player out there. Glad a playoff contender lacking consistency that we are chasing got him. They'll fall out of the playoff picture, Calgary will get next year's first, St. Louis will have to trade JBo during the offseason, make the playoffs next season and Flames get a crappy 2014 pick. Perfect scenario.

 

[Faelko]

Are there 4 High School players hiding out there somewhere?

was on the trade board earlier

 

[Faelko]

As bad as the returns on these players have been looking, I sure hope we don't deal Hemsky for garbage.
