I think Schultz would clear quite easily. Bottom pairing d-men making 4 million aren't in high demand and I bet the only way he gets moved is with the Oilers retaining salary.

I would love to see what pieces Columbus is willing to part with. If at the deadline we could grab Cody Goloubef for Justin Schutz. Foligno, Dubinsky, Bobrovsky would be nice to grab. If a Yakupov + deal could work out that'd be nice, but that plus would be big.

You know Rundblad is in conversation for the worst Dman in the league right?
http://hfboards.mandatory.com/showthread.php?t=2002549
We already have half the players in this thread and you want to add another?
I'm looking at Chiarelli to get Schultz out next, I don't care who takes his place. Logically though, it should start with him getting some time in the pressbox.

I wouldn't mind a claim on Rundblad. Not many 25 year old 6'2 RD that pass through waivers, and he was not a bad NHL player last year.
At worst he is in fact no better than Schultz and just gives the coaching staff an extra body to rotate in. At best he's a more effective puck mover with significant warts at even strength.

I doubt the Jets would trade two RD just to get one back (no, Schultz doesn't count). I think the only way that's appealing to them is if we fix their need for a stud young leftie. Hamonic + Klefbom + Yak is about the only package that would be tempting to them.
I think a Myers/Hamonic swap is in the offing, with Snow hoping to tease a couple of extra assets out of the Jets to make it worth his while.
Our best hope at a defender is Jones, and then Byfuglien next summer.

pretty bad for Jets..
comes down to Trouba + Armia for Yakupov + Schultz ..
Myers+Hamonic are pretty much even.
Haha no. Myers is a porous defensive d-man that needs to be sheltered or he gets overwhelmed. Hamonic can play the toughs and succeed.
But anyways, I agree that it's bad for the Jets becaue Yak and Schultz suck.

not sure about that... even if true it was probably a short tournament.
Get Brodin if you really want someone who clicks with Klefa.

He's under contract for next year though. That would be the deal breaker for me. Although Schultz putting up huge points in the AHL might get some dumb ass GM to give up a 3rd round pick for him at the deadline.

Only watched a bit of the Canada game today, but man the Oilers could use a winger like Lawson Crouse in the system.
No,schultz has absolutely zero trade value. Any GM who looks at him is not even going to think about giving up a draft pick to have to qualify him for 4 million next year. If it was 2 or something sure take a gamble, but 4 million, I highly doubt anyone is going to take that chance.

Panthers seem to be going for it and Oilers going nowhere.
Crouse + Gudbranson for Eberle
Don't think it would work but I like the idea for sure.. Probably adds on both sides.
Do that trade and draft Jesse Puljujarvi
Crouse - McDavid - Puljujarvi

I don't know. You could view him as a pure rental at the deadline with no obligation to give him a qualifying offer. Depth defensemen are needed and on short supply at the deadline. Might be able to get a 3rd-5th him, especially with salary retention as you said.
The absolute best we do is a player in the same situation, but preferably at another position.
How about Marcus Foligno? He's never had more than 20 points, but his QO will be $2.5M. Carlo Colaiacovo is basically the 32-year-old version of Schultz, and they're already playing him 15 minutes a night. I'd do the pair for JS, since it's near to an even match in salary.
Only wrinkle is that that likely doesn't happen until closer to the deadline, when Franson is moved to a contender for a low pick.

Might work in the summer if Big Buff goes south to play for his former GM. Is Campbell a UFA this summer or does he still have a year left? He would be ok as a one year stop gap to provide some shelter for Klefbom/Nurse/Davidson/Reinhart.
Why would you want more magic beans? Also, Gubrandson is not good at all. Can he even make a good pass up ice? No

If we get Crouse + Gudbranson for Eberle we are making out like bandits and we take that trade 10 times out of 10. Crouse is a destined top 6 two-way powerforward, and Gudbranson is a top-6 defenseman with top-4 potential with size who plays the right side.
I'd be willing to add a significant piece to Eberle to get those two players.

Kinda leery on Gudbranson ... I don't think he's very good quite frankly.
That trade would be dependant on how good you think Crouse will be but it's always a risk to swap a proven NHL player for someone you think might be one day.

Gudbranson is just simply bad, people just think he's good because he's 6'5 and was drafted high, but it's been 6 years since he's been drafted and he is what he is. He's a bottom-pairing guy and I don't see the point in moving Eberle for a prospect winger.
