Trade Deadline

[TML fan]

Message to Nonis... Derek Roy and David Clarkson.. YES......

Ryan Clowe and Mikka Kiprisoff... NO

Derek Roy can go F himself.

Now he can F himself in Vancouver. Better?

If they can get Marchand and Ribeiro they could form the next Olympic diving team.

Fried says Jagr to Boston.  :-\

Edit: 2 prospects and a pick... No more details than that.

How long before Shero comes in and announces Jagr to Pittsburgh?

Just like Lucky Charms, that would be magically delicious.

Trade deadline acquisitions come at hefty price, if you ask me. Hoping the Leafs stand pat.

So far so good. I'm liking the fact Nunis has not made a deal. we are only just testing the playoff waters, so we dont need to spend the farm on any players to try and do a push. I say we go in and let the guys get some experince, then go for it next year. also I like what we have other then we need  stay at home dman.

I agree. I'd be happy with a stay at home 6th D man that can clear the front of the net. if we were to trade Liles i'd be okay with that as well just to make room for Gardiner.

By this time tomorrow the trade deadline will be another memory and we'll see what our playoff team looks like.  Hold me.

 

[Deebo]

I'll be disappointed if we aren't able to add a top 4 defense-man.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

I'll be disappointed if we don't move 1 of our pending UFA's, although at these prices there's probably no point.

Remember when we could've had a 1st for MacArthur? Yeah.....

Remember when we could've had a 1st for MacArthur? Yeah.....

A conditional 1st - and, not knowing the team or the conditions, it's hard to judge whether or not holding on to him was the right choice. I mean, I wouldn't have moved a 20 goal winger with another season on his contract for what really could have ended up being a mid to late 2nd rounder.

 

[Jalili]

The conditional part may have been the deal-breaker, but otherwise I'd move MacArthur for a 1st pretty quickly, regardless of what team offered it.

It's like the NHL GM's have conspired to screw the talking heads on deadline day, I love it.

A straight up 1st would have been much harder to turn down, yes, though I still don't think Burke would have made that move - but, in that case, the criticism he gets from not making the deal would have been much more fair, as far as I'm concerned.

I think they'd better get used to it. It never made a ton of sense to make deals up against the deadline and the pressure/bad decisions it led to are pretty clear to see now. If a team wants to make a change, I think more and more they'll realize it a week or so in advance and conduct negotiations accordingly.

DarrenDreger: Tim Connolly won't play for Marlies in 11am game tomorrow. No deal imminent. Coaches decision, but based on fear of injury. #tradecentre

Anything less than three 1st round picks is unacceptable.

Rangers could use his 2013 NHL scoring.

Unfortunately, they're lacking in 2013 draft picks.

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

So, like a 4-5th rounder? What's his value?

That or maybe more likely he will replace Bozak in Toronto once he is dealt.
