Proposal: Trade Proposal Thread: Part 60

[Hins77]

Why wait until the deadline to move Chiarot? Move him now before he gets hurt or Covid.

Also if you're not sending Norlinder back to Sweden it helps open a spot for him.

Chiarot value will be at the highest close the trade deadline. Teams gonna know were they are going and will less get affraid to put first picks/A prospect on the block with 20 games remainings..

If someone is offering a 1st, you make the trade now. Maybe some teams aren't offering a 1st so we are waiting.

Is Josh Anderson available? New Jersey needs a power forward like him.

Yes, most definitely.

Who isn’t available?

suzuki?

Yet another example of lazy sports journalism. "Hey the Habs just hired a guy who used to work for the Rangers so let's assume that he is going to trade for all these guys on the Rangers roster now."

They do the same thing every time a francophone player is rumored to be on the move. "Could the Habs be a destination?" If the Habs actually got even half of the players the media rumors say they're getting they'd have won multiple Cups over the last 20 years by now.

It’s not lazy, it’s a good point. Kravtsov is available and Gorton backed the selection of him in the Top 10.

 

[HuGo Sham]

Yes, most definitely.

right. and you know this how, so definitely?

 

[General Fanager]

Trade gallagher

LOL

Two weeks ago most guys on here were wanting him named captain now he is being chased out of town.

I look around the league and can’t find another Dman with recent playoff pedigree that is a pending UFA of Chiarot’s ilk, which instantly makes the return much higher than a 1st rounder IMO.

Especially since there’s a handful of teams, led by Leafs, Avs and to a certain extent NYR who absolutely have to go deep these playoffs or there’s strong potential of ownership exercising their might….

I'd love to skip the pick and get a good blue chipper. Might turn into a Suzuki.

Would you swap Dvorak + Toffoli or Drouin for Kadri + Girard?

Avs have very little secondary scoring after their go to line, and Kadri will be expensive to resign

Dvorak and Drouin 100%.

 

[Canadienna]

100%. Kadri could get a haul at the deadline and Girard would be a nice add.

I think Colorado doesn't do this however.

My preference is to keep him. At 27 he's still got some good years in him.

 

[SakuKoivu11]

Yes I believe Chariot will get us a first. Big solid playoff defenseman on expiring contract.

? I havent seen anybody praise gallagher in years. Dudes done. He represents perfectly what the team has been in the past 8 years. The little grinder that could

If Gorton goes with a rebuild he doesn’t fit. He isn’t done, that’s nonsense.

Kadri isnt what we should target. We have plw ty of guy between 28 to 33 years old. Most of them are on the wrong side of their career so Girard is a target. But not kadri

[salbutera]

If that’s the case bidding starts with 1st + NHL ready top-6

 

[lamp9post]

We would be over the rebuild in 5 years time if we made the right decisions today. In 5 years time, we would be past retention on Price, Gallagher, and Petry and our youth from this next draft would be age 22 ish. Might have a better situation than the Sens have at the moment cause we have less holes and better depth behind the young potential stars.

How long has the Sens been rebuilding? This is the 4th year Karlsson is with the Sharks now.

If we want a true rebuild, we have to accept the pains of making tough decisions today and consider the process may or may not take longer than expected. That's the risks of a rebuild

Yes, but we would lose flexibility in the meanwhile and also be handcuffed in the event that we are ready to compete earlier. I just think we can do better with our retention slots. We have plenty of vets that we can move or sell off at the deadline this year and next:

Chiarot
Drouin
Byron
Kulak
Lehkonen (RFA)
Paquette
Perrault
Wideman

On top of that we have players that likely have value with multiple years on their contracts:
Edmundson
Toffoli
Hoffman
Dvorak

So we have plenty to move and plenty of roster spaces to open up. No need to take on ~10M of dead cap for 5 years. Plus, the trio you mention may gain trade value as they approach the end of their deals. Why pay to sell low?

[The Great Weal]

Now imagine Chiarot at 50%. I'd be stoked for a 1st alone but all signs indicate that he will get more.

 

[Schwang]

He's getting us a first rounder

With the way this team is accumulating injuries, I worry waiting until the deadline.

 

[Schwang]

If Gorton goes with a rebuild he doesn’t fit. He isn’t done, that’s nonsense.

His heart isn't done. His body is. He will not be a 30 goal man again. He'll be lucky to get 20, and will not play a full season.
