Rumors/Speculation/Trade Talk - 2020-21 Pt. IX

[Chapin Landvogt]

I see that - I just don’t see how they can move Ladd without giving it up or the ‘23 ?

We'll leave that up to Lou.

He seems to have a way with these things.

• Another idea would be to bury Ladd and his 4.375 for another year.
• Trade Leddy to Detroit for a '2021 5th round pick - ala Ryan Murray to Devils deal we saw last season.
• Sign Alex Goligoski on a 1 year deal for 2.5 AAV
• Roll with a 22 man roster.

I have absolutely no idea how valid this source is but it looks interesting. Tank is a pure goal scorer but he’s been injured the last couple of years. 2 years left at $7.5 per. We’d have to LTIR him until playoffs

So does Tarasenko play on the wing with Barzal and Lee or does Ovechkin? Where does that leave Leo in all this????? The people deserve answers.

I don't want him, but why in the hell would he want to come here? I get we're moving up the ranks and no longer a red headed step child, but what possible connection does he have to this area and the Isles?

This is so out of left field that it raises an eyebrow from me.

 

[YearlyLottery]

Guys I am fairly sure the Taresenko news is not verified for anyone and originally came from a STL Blues podcast.

 

[benedictTavares]

it is an odd list for sure. I doubt its real.

He's Russian and so he must love Varlamov and Sorokin.

 

[Osakahaus]

wouldn't be a 1st choice, but now i am curious...

surprised to see the A on his shirt. didn't really think of him as the leader type.

i see no reason that StL trades him, unless he refuses to play for them.

i think the blues want to get younger and 100% get more futures, thats what i feel now. their window is closed and they could get assets for him. Wouldn't mind getting vladdy IF it is tarasenko from years past

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

Grabovski and Kulemin told him the Island was nice.

 

[Osakahaus]

He's also kinda dumb too. He's not really reshaping that team, but making it worse. Binnington is Blaine Lacher meets Martin Jones and he resigned him to that awful deal. I believe he also signed Allen to that awful deal, then somehow got out from underneath.

he also traded bokk for a rather meh defenseman in faulk

 

[NYI365]

Tarasenko for Ho-Sang, Dal Colle, Ville Pokka, Rhett Rhakshani, Robert Nilsson, Ryan O'Marra, and a 50% off Saturday Night Skate at Northwell Health. Who says no

Most likely 100% fake. If he did have an actually list one of the more prominent guys would have shared it. I love the player I just don’t see a fit right now and with his injury questions for me the price would have to be cheap and STL would have to either take back bad contracts or retain.

also the blues trading him to us? Unlikely.

 

[Tres Peleches]

More likely than trading within the western conference

 

[SI90]

why? Is their a rift between us and the blues I don’t know about?

 

[Lame Lambert]

And Brooklyn. He’s colluding with Ovechkin to come here on a league minimum contract to create the laziest super team in the East.

 

[Osakahaus]

Just my opinion because we really don't trade with that team

 

[stranger34]

I’m only interested in Tarasenko if Ladd goes the other way. Higher priced damaged player for lower priced useless player.

Contrary to belief, i think that brighton is a great place. wish they had a place that sold KHL jerseys for cheap because some are pretty nice, but theres no rumor in that lol. To me i think the isles have gotten their russian connections fixed overtime once snow/wang left. some orgs, however, are still struggling with the russian factor

Yup, this is completely unverified and until its from one of the real legit insiders or NRD/Bob I won't be taking the bait. Would he be a good upgrade, absolutely!
