Rumor: Trade rumors and proposals thread: The 50 shades of Hamonic -- The Travis fantasy

[McOilbleeder]

Well, if it's for family reasons, you have to think Winnipeg is at the top. Vancouver isn't all that close. I think Chicago, Minnesota and even Denver are closer.

Man he would look so good here.

Watch Chicago scoop him up. That is a pretty good contract for Hamonic.

3-way trades are rare but I wonder if that is what it will take in this scenario?

Edmonton gets Hamonic.
Islanders get XX.
YY gets Eberle.

You never know.



I could see them making a deal but I think the Flames or Canucks will step up first. Especially since the Flames need to save their season.

We may not be able to get him, but one thing for sure, I feel better with Chia looking after it than CrapT.

Calgary has the assets actually.. to bad

Brodie/Gio/Hamilton could all go back

That's a massive overpay IMO. One or the other, not both.

Jesus, I don't know how we get him, but I sure hope we do.

Eberle, Schultz, 2nd
Hamonic, Bailey

The thing is the Oilers don't have a good RHD to give them back and they're stacked at forwards.

 

[Paralyzer]

Hamonic + Okposo for Eberle + Schultz. Again, just keeping the prediction from me ^^ Maybe add a 3rd or prospect from our side, but it's fair IMO.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I'm not even going to get my hopes up. It won't happen without a serious overpay.

 

[PaPaDee]

Hamonic is the kind of guy you move the 2016 1st for, even if it ends up being top 5.

 

[Aceboogie]

Yeah this has Winnipeg all over it

Cant get my hopes up

They don't want a pick

 

[McPuritania]

Dear god, please.

Pretty much. Won't get my hopes up, but he's exactly what we need.

 

[smokersarejokers]

Agreed on Calgary. Don't see Calgary trading Hamilton or Brodie and don't see the Isles wanting Gio. That is a bad contract.

Gotta think Winnipeg can do it. Edmonton too, if they'll take a forward. Eberle in the east would be unreal, especially with Tavares.

Oh i meant to add that there would probably have to be a bit more on the NYI side but we would have to overpay in some kind of way. We have no D to replace Hamonic and Calgary and Winnipeg does.

Considering contract situation and ability, there's no way the Islanders get an "equitable" defenseman in return.

Hamonic logs a lot of minutes against tough competition and comes out ahead while riding a cap hit under $4M for the foreseeable future. The only western Canadian defenseman who can say the same is Brodie, and that deal would be pointless for Calgary. Everyone else is either not as good or is about to be a free agent.

 

[Johnny McBravo]

We won't get him. Just wan't to say that and not give my hopes up

 

[McOilbleeder]

We could have a Hammer and Nail on the team...

 

[longtimeoilfan]

I'm not even going to get my hopes up. It won't happen without a serious overpay.

Personalty, I am o.k. with a serious overpay at this point... within reason of course.

If we're offering a lesser D than another team, the 2016 1st round pick may help sway them.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

Hamonic would be great.

The fact he's asking our reduces their leverage significantly. They're going to have to accept a lesser return. Honestly, Schultz and the 1st makes so much sense to me.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Just let that sink in.

Good point. You'd hate to go too crazy though, especially if Eberle is involved.

 

[KlimasLoveChild]

I like the three way trade idea....also it's out there that winnipeg is looking for a top six forward at the moment


win....Ebs
NY.....Myers or Trouba
Edm...Hamonic

 

[McDeathbyCheerios*]

Just let that sink in.

That's if he goes to Winnipeg

 

[Arpeggio]

I just don't see it happening. Every other team has a more suitable package to offer the Isles (aka a decent defenceman). It'd be awesome, but I just don't see the Oilers coming up with the right set of players.
