Rumor: Rumour and Proposals Thread: "Keep Your Eyes on Edmonton"

This trade sucks without improving our forward core.

That doesn’t mean I don’t take it.

you’ve gotta think Nurse is worth more than Ehlers.

if Pietrangelo tests the market, Nurse for Schwartz?

Ehlers is a great player. I want him here, bur Schwartz won a cup, St. Louis would benefit from Nurse’s mobility and it would sting less than seeing him in Winnipeg.



I am HERE for OEL. Especially if we can keep Larsson and Klefbom. That turns our D core around.

Ehlers getting seriously underrated here imo. He’s a legit dynamic player who drives play from the wing, his offensive skill set is great and he would really flourish alongside a big body like Leon I think. Not to mention he’s locked up on a great contract. If we could get him for Nurse I’d take it.

He's a verified reporter in Vancouver..

Well that makes things more interesting. These playoffs need to end already

If the trade is Ghost for Russell straight up - fine. Who knows what you are getting with Ghost and you have 3 more years of a guy who might be a 25-35 point player.

If there’s other pieces going the other way - no thanks. Philly is getting out from under a contact that might really hamper them if he sucks.

 

[Burnt Biscuits]

I know Ehlers checks a lot of our team’s boxes, but I don’t feel convinced he brings the same impact to the team that Jaden would.


I wouldn’t say no to either one. If we acquire OEL without giving up Nurse or Klefa then I think you hold onto the D core unless the deal is too good to refuse.

OEL Bear
Klefbom Larsson
Nurse Jones

dang.

I think the reason Ehlers isn't perceived as well is cause he gets a pretty insignificant amount of PP time, not saying that would change with us cause it probably wouldn't, but it would certainly help with how the average fan perceives him.

I could see Bouchard moved this off season.

Have you seen his cap hit lately? No chance I do that trade.

For what?

 

[780il]

If we get OEL for Neal + prospect + 1st, I would send Nurse to Boston for Debrusk + Studnicka. A lw for Mcdavid and a right shot 3c that can play in all situations.

Debrusk - Mcdavid - Pulju
DRY
Ennis - Studnicka - Kassian
Khaira - Haas - Archibald

OEL - Larsson
Klef - Bear
Jones - X

 

[GretzkytoKurri9917]

For what?

Halak,Ryder and a 2nd.

 

[CycloneSweep]

For what?

No idea. I just don't think he plays the way that Holland is building the team.

Boston would be stupid to give up Studnika. Let him learn under Bergeron and he will become the next Bergeron.

I actually like that lineup better with Kass and Pulju switched.

 

[Messrules11]

I don’t think Nurse is going anywhere. Klefbom on the other hand really should be dealt. His shoulder is finished, can’t take a slap shot anymore and if he does it misses the net anyway.

Wow, I just saw Ehlers’ contract. Nevermind Schwartz.

“I would say to you that it’s going to get very active in very, very short order here”

Don't know if this recent quote from Holland has been posted here yet, but it's something to get excited about.

 

[bobbythebrain]

Based on what? 19 PP points over the last two seasons?

And he's never played close to top pairing minutes in his career.

Wrong on both counts

in 2years where he has been dicked around by his coaches. 19 pp points, still pretty good #'s for a guy who sees's 2nd pp time and little ice time

Prior to that his PP stats were insane and YES, he did play top minutes with Provorov, go mlook it up, they were fantastic, coincidentally, the same year Giroux and Coots had career years

An injury and an imbecile coaching staff put a stop to that

He isn't on a decline, he is on a bad "cline" with the coaching staff. Huge difference there

Amazing what coaching can do to a player. Just ask Klingberg who has seen a decline in points b/c Dal is giving Heiskanen alot of his minutes

Ghost is healthy, but unfortunately he won't see any trust from AV. The same AV who adamantly used JT Miller as a 3rd line player. Oh ya, Cooper did too

Waits in anticipation.

Draft comes........nothing happens.

 

[Chayos]

The only thing that is going to get exciting about RNH is his 7 year extension.

feel bad for Dallas but please end this tonight. I'm tired of being in the bubble

He's had one year where he played anywhere near top competition.

He's been sheltered every other year, for good reason.

 

[barry halls]

Where did he say that?

JONES: No waiting until next year for NHL after Stanley Cup Final | Edmonton Journal

I think he mostly means that the NHL in general is gonna get busy, but in the same article he says he's been on the phone with other GM's almost constantly in the past several days.

Yes but in that same interview, he said that he likely won't be that active. He said "not very" I believe when asked if he'd be one of the GMs in on the action.
