Speculation: Speculation: Trade Rumours and Proposals Part VI, Armchair GM Edition ‎

[Johnny Hoxville]

If we wanted Bickell, we probably could of had him over Bollig for a 3rd and maybe someone like Hanowski. I don't want ANY more forwards added, we already have to many and need to continue the evaluation process before crucial decisions need to made next year.

If by chance, some young stud player became available and fit our core long term, then I would be fine paying that price.

Bickell + 1st

for

Bollig + 2nd

Bickell + 1st

Bollig + 2nd

I doubt the Hawks trade their 1st. Maybe they do their 2nd for our 3rd though.

 

[CraigsList]

I don't think the Hawks would want Bollig back lol.

Guy's won a Stanley Cup. By some people on the main board's measure, that makes him better than Iginla ever was!

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Probably not, but he makes 4 times less than the guy that plays the same position on their 3rd line.

If we went for Bickell, then we'd need a 1st back.

If we went for Bickell, then we'd need a 1st back.

If we get a 1st, then sure I'd do it. But really I'm not that interested. Rather just roll 3 good lines with the depth we currently have. Bollig is fine in his role.

Pretty much agree. If we have the opportunity to grab another first in this draft, that'd be great though. I loved the way Treliving attempted to with Carolina and Arizona. Would have been awesome to get Fleury/Tuch/Honka.

Prospect for Prospect Swap:

BUF gets:
6'1 F Max Reinhart

CGY gets:
6'1 RHD Mark Pysyk

What's everyone's opinion about it.

 

[Taranis]

Mark Pysyk seems decent, and our bottom six center depth is there to be trade pieces.

 

[Master Bill]

Prospect for Prospect Swap:

BUF gets:
6'1 F Max Reinhart

CGY gets:
6'1 RHD Mark Pysyk

What's everyone's opinion about it.

I think Pysyk has more value than Reinhart at this point, but if Buffalo is simply willing to reunite the brothers, I'd do this in a heartbeat.

 

[CraigsList]

That's a done deal imo.

 

[Johnny GODreau]

I think Pysyk has more value than Reinhart at this point, but if Buffalo is simply willing to reunite the brothers, I'd do this in a heartbeat.

The way I see it, they're both having trouble breaking into there respected parent club(s). And both team's have a need that this trade fills. Flames need a RHD and Buffalo could always use another young Forward.

 

[Gritty]

Pysyk would be great. Mobile right handed defender with upside. I also like Jake McCabe and wouldn't mind landing him.

I wish we had picked McCabe instead of Sieloff.

 

[Johnny GODreau]

I wish we had picked McCabe instead of Sieloff.

I wish we never traded the second rounder that turned into McCabe.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

I like that deal!

 

[CraigsList]

Thoughts on Brett Connolly? I would definitely take him on if we could buy him low.

I like him. But the question becomes who do you deal for him and where does he play?

 

[Johnny GODreau]

TB:
RW Devin Setoguchi
3rd'15*

CGY:
RW Brett Connolly


*Conditions Flames make past 1st round of playoffs and Connolly scores 30 points otherwise it's a 4th plus Gooch for Connolly.(Essentially Joe Colborne trade)

I don't think he'll come that easy, honestly. I mean, if we can swing that deal; we'd be insane not to. This was an ex high first rounder. Pretty sure that TB would want more than the Gooch and a late pick for a kid with good upside and pedigree.

But if he hit's waivers and gets claimed they get nothing.

They've thought about putting him on waivers, so at this point I think they'd be fine taking a pick or a prospect from us.

 

[Lunatik]

I'd pass on Connolly right now unless we have a deal in place to move a roster player. I just don't see him as an upgrade over our current roster players and he's not someone you acquire and then bench.

Now if he hits waivers and clears, then I would trade for him after and have him in ADK until we clear a roster spot.
