Proposal: Trade Rumors and Proposals: Part XXXII

[Icelevel]

gillis is waiting to see/hear about a player, van is looking for a center, regin is moved to center.
once they move luongo they can use bishop. (i know they have lack but bishop probably better)

(unlikely yes. but possible)

just having fun

You forgot to add Subban to make this a bigger trade

MTL: Yakupov
Edm: Subban

 

[John Holmes*]

Why would Edmonton want Regin? Regin has little value, if any.

They'd want Zibby and Lehner, not Regin and Bishop.

 

[JonnyMacSen]

I'm thinking something like

To Edm:

Bishop


To Ott:

2nd
Ryan Martindale

 

[Scooter Magee*]

To Edmonton: Bishop G, Regin C/LW & Condra RW
To Ottawa: Jeff Petry RD & maybe a pick

No.

Then Peter Regin could be our #2 centre!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ER MER GERD!!!

I hadn't thought of that

Should Bishop be dealt I think a lot of people are going to be angered by the return.

Youve made that clear Fuhrsie.

Didn't you hate the Methot acquisition?

I like the words you're picking in your posts, they all have a certain aggressive factor in them... Angered, Hate, total failure, etc..

Same goes for the Luongo trade in Van. And also likely the reason he has not been moved yet.

The return on goalies in trades is never great these days.

He also promised not to post here as long as Murray was GM. He's not to be believed.

Bold words considering nobody is ever happy with any trade on this board.

Nope... I thought we could have kept Foligno and signed a defensive D.

Defensive D are a dime a dozen

Methot is a 6'3 230lb defensive defenseman who plays physical.
3.0 cap hit

But could we not have kept Foligno and went after a UFA like Allen, Morrisonn, Colaiacovo, Jurcina?

I would think that makes more sense

 

[General Granny*]

lol it has already been mentioned that Murray is looking for more than the 2nd rounder he paid for. I am not looking for a 1st but if he gets something more than he gave up then I would be happy.

I see your point. But I think the reason Murray did move Foligno was to open up space for the up and coming forwards and also didn't want to pay Foligno 3M a year or whatever it was. Also, I think that Methot is a better player than the ones that you suggested Murray sign. Just my two cents on the situation anyway

Defensive D are a dime a dozen, but unfortunately none the quality of Methot are available to be signed.

You have also said that 3rd and 4th line wingers are a dime a dozen, exactly what Foligno is on any good team.

Foligno was never going to be more than a third line winger in Ottawa.

I am sure most GMs in the NHL would give up a third line winger everyday of the week to get a Dman that could play in the top pairing.

Foligno had 47 points last season... To me that is a potential second liner.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

I think it's pretty obvious the return on a guy like Bishop won't be as good as some are expecting

I'd be happy with second round pick to be honest, or maybe a fourth and a good AHL goalie

i agree bishop alone won't bring what we expect, but maybe bishop and a forward prospect / draft pick will.

Too early to predict what Bishop might bring in a trade.

At this point in time, TGB (aka Fehr) is most likely right, the return for Bishop won't be as high as many predict or hope for.

20 games into the season there may be higher demand and a few desperate GMs due to standings or injuries.

Then a player like Bishop's may bring what Murray paid or even more than market value.
