GDT: Trade Deadline Day

[MTL-rules]

Give me that 1st ANY DAY.

I concur... Flames 1st and it's a deal !

 

[Mrb1p]

I really don't get your love for Eberle.... He's literally a faster DD and he might be softer and worse defensively.

 

[Lshap]

Or maybe we value defensive depth for the PO's.

Or they're trying to figure out if he can handle the minutes that might have gone to Tinordi if we trade him.

Yes and yes. I'm liking Pateryn more than I expected to. We really REALLY need some physical balance on our D to complement all the PMDs. But the fact remains we have a huge surplus of NHL-ready dmen - somebody could be moved and we'd still have injury depth, even before needing to dip into Hamilton for Tinordi. We either dangle one of them today, or else they stay in the press box and never see a minute of playoff time.

I think Tinordi is a guy that if you trade him, you regret it in 3-4 years when he's an elite shutdown guy with an edge.

If he is traded it better be for a huge asset.

You're assuming he'll hit his absolute best-case-scenario ceiling when, if we're honest with ourselves, he hasn't shown anything close to hitting that yet. He could just as easily max out as a middling #6 guy who's forgotten about in a few years a la O'Byrne.

Again, I wouldn't give Tinordi away, but in the right deal for a proven top six forward with term, for example? By all means.

I really don't get your love for Eberle.... He's literally a faster DD and he might be softer and worse defensively.

I'm now convinced you have never, ever watched Jordan Eberle play if you think he's softer and worse defensively.

 

[MTL-rules]

What do you guys think...coming from a major news panel. Do we land one of these guys? Don't think Eberle is a possibility seeing as we concluded our trade with the Oilers. Marleau would be sicckkk.

Marleau or Eberle would be awesome... Lupul would be total vomit... if we're to trade with TO, gun for Kessel.

 

[Monctonscout]

yup, came to post this. im hoping Emelin is the odd man out, i'd be happy if we got a 5th round pick for him tbh.. terrible contract.

Emelin was playing well before he got hurt. I think we need his physicality, I wouldn't dump him. Maybe in a "hockey deal" with an asset coming back.

I have a lot of confidence in a possible O'Reilly deal now.

Overrated and too much of a cap hit. I don't think I would like the price for him, then he will want to make a fortune in 2016 as a FA.

According to TSN 690 the Flames are kicking the tires for Eller and Emelin, the guy said he knew it for a fact

Hudler is about the only guy I could see a fit.

Backlund-Eller maybe?

Everyone's talking about Tinordi, but the Habs have been playing the hell out of Pateryn. Showcasing him for a trade perhaps??

Pateryn is more poilished and older(24) I think they wanted a look at him and he's been solid. I think he is cemeting a spot on the roster next year replacing Weaver.

Parenteau out please. Will anybody take him for a 5th?

I think the habs would have to eat another contract or keep some cap hit.

Not sure Parenteau has any value right now.

Belesky available....D-man available.

Anaheim needs depth on D, Gilbert-Belesky?

Eberle can put up 70+ on Edmonton

 

[Justin11]

Having made a trade this early in the morning, you got to think that MB is working for a top 6 player now.

 

[Seb]

Yes please

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Give me that 1st ANY DAY.

Yeah but what are we dealing for it? If we're giving up Tinordi or Eller, I want a player that'll make us better in the playoffs.

 

[Milhouse40]

Yes please

Parenteau + Tinordi for Justin Williams and 6th round pick
#DreamingHard

 

[Justin11]

Yes please

Trying to make room in the cap for another move?

 

[CupInSIX]

Tinner and Eller package for Eberle makes the most sense.

considering it's MacT it might be Eller and a conditional 5th

 

[Mrb1p]

Yes and yes. I'm liking Pateryn more than I expected to. We really REALLY need some physical balance on our D to complement all the PMDs. But the fact remains we have a huge surplus of NHL-ready dmen - somebody could be moved and we'd still have injury depth, even before needing to dip into Hamilton for Tinordi.

It's the point, you hope there's no injuries but if there is, were not screwed.

I'm now convinced you have never, ever watched Jordan Eberle play if you think he's softer and worse defensively.

Eberle is soft as hell though. He might be fast and skilled, but I don't think were better off with him in our top 6 if we keep DD and Parenteau

 

[ClasslessGuy]

If Parenteau is really on the market (confirmed on La Presse), it must meen MB is going for a big name up front

 

[groovejuice]

Marleau or Eberle would be awesome... Lupul would be total vomit... if we're to trade with TO, gun for Kessel.

Kessel so far in 2015.... against PO teams - 0G 0A

 

[hototogisu]

I really don't get your love for Eberle.... He's literally a faster DD and he might be softer and worse defensively.

Eberle is not a perfect player by any means but where are you suggesting we find a 70+ point scorer who's a great two-way player and tough as nails? They're not out there.

He's a defenseman

No he's not

He's younger than DD, a sure fire 60pts guys with talent to top 70-80pts. Signed long term... aside from his size, I don't know excatly why you wouldn't like him. I'm really tired of these size-but-no-talent lovers... We already traded for DSP, now leave us alone and hope for talent in this lineup.

Il semble que le Canadien tente d'échanger Parenteau.

Lavoie also tweeted this a few hours ago. Not surprised. He was cleared for contact and the team still didn't play him.

No he's not

I edited my post.

 

[Milhouse40]

#Coyotes Zbynek Michalek to the #Blues as per @RealKyper

 

[Blood On The Ice]

Eller+Tinordi+1st for a scoring foward with term

I wanna make long lasting sweaty love to Bergevin ftw we go all in this year

 

[Smokey Thompson]

Tinordi smells of Mike Komisarek to me.

Komisarek at least had the skillset to be an NHL player for a few years
