Dreger: Talbot may be willing to accept a trade to anywhere

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Hmmmm florida? They always seem to acquire goalies it seems...He can go somewhere where nobody recognizes him

 

[tellermine]

He can still get it going.
New team can make mirackes to a goalie.

 

[MAHJ71]

Columbus?

Bob for Talbot swap?? UFA for UFA, unhappy for unhappy?

 

[Bettman Returnz]

What teams need a starter next year?

Carolina, Chicago, Detroit, New Jersey, Vancouver don't have rock solid #1 options next season.

No thanks from Canucks... we will roll with markstrom and Demko.

 

[Richard Moistmaker]

Howard & Nyquist (both @ 50% retention) for Talbot, 2019 First (top 10 protected), and Bear or Pulujiarvi (forgive my spelling)

 

[Bettman Returnz]

Howard trade makes far more sense for the oilers. Or a swap for Allen (obviously not straight across).

 

[Mick Jagr]

At this point I'm sure EVERY Edmonton Oiler player would accept a trade to anywhere but Edmonton. So I'm not sure how this is news.

Seems like a good option too... sounds like Lu may be retiring in the off season. Who’s their future #1?

I could be wrong but i dont think they really have a surefire future #1 awaiting... Maybe a Panther fan can chime in though

I'm so excited to see what Chiarelli does with this.

I bet you are wrong ? Oh that’s right Talbot has reportedly turned down a trade to an eastern conference team .

 

[PullHard]

Say Detroit offers Edmonton

Nyquist (pending UFA)
Green (1 season on contract)
Howard (pending UFA)

all at 50% retention

And took back Spooner and Talbot at full pop... What does the rest of that trade look like?

Sam Montembeault is who we hope is our goalie of the future but never know.

And why would Detroit do that? We retain on 3 of the best players in the deal, Spooner is meh making $3.1 million for another season. Talbot is considered a cap dump. And besides i doubt Green would waive for Edmonton when he's played his entire career in the east. Don't see Green wanting to play that far west.

You really won’t like it. Probably a minimum of 2 1sts and 2nds.

You didn't read my entire post I guess. I want you to tell me what needs to be added to make that deal happen. I am fully aware that Detroit would block and delete Chiarelli's contact info if he offered that deal as I've left it. I want you to add in the picks and prospects to make Detroit say "yes."

Also, Green is from Alberta, he grew up in Calgary. Maybe he says no, but I don't think you really have much to go on by saying "he's played in the east his whole career." He had no control over that for most of his career - until he signed his last two contracts with Detroit.

I would love that! I'm a Red Wings fan.

Well Edmonton would definitely need to add big time here, 2 1st and a 2nd is a good start on top of it. Because other then that it's pretty bad for us.

 

[Evgeny Oliker]

Florida makes a lot of sense

 

[FinlandPanther]

Florida makes a lot of sense

I sure hope not

 

[topshelf15]

Maybe a 3 way trade here is what may be in order,Talbot carries to much cap ,and EDM cant retain...Maybe a go between team with cap space can help??

WTF are you talking about... for two rentals and Green? My God even Chiarelli isn't that dumb.

 

[oilers4life]

for reimer maybe i dont know who the oilers would target

 

[Ishad]

WTF are you talking about... for two rentals and Green? My God even Chiarelli isn't that dumb.

Nyquist is worth a 1st without retention.
Green is worth a 1st without retention.
Howard with retention is easily a 2nd.

Talbots and spooner are both cap dumps.

Yeah with retention, And i'm not the one that proposed it? Just agreeing that it would be costly.
