Not sure about that but somebody might overpay without question.

Paul Holmgren, Don Maloney are chatting in the Consol Energy Center press room. Discussing a deal, or comparing notes on the dessert table?

holmburglar is going to send bryz back to the yotes for mike smiff.

I'm willing to be either Laughton or Coots will be traded for a defender.

May very well happen.

Sellers market with so many teams in the race. The time is now and the price is fantastic.

you're alright in my book.... i don't care what DFT says about you

I could definitely see something go down. My feeling is that it's Yandle for sure. If we do a deal, it's for next year and going forward...IMO..

I would welcome the move as long as we don't overpay. We have a lot of defensive defenseman, but we need a puck mover.. 26 y/o, average 40 plus pts..

Onky worry I have is that it would cost cooter. If it's a 1st and Schenn.. probably do it.

our first this year?? gonna sting REALLY bad if that winds up being top 5. just my take, but i'm not moving that pick unless i'm getting an absolute beast in return. particularly if we're shipping out a player like schenn as well

Nope.. he's sending Cooter back to his birthplace for Yandle (who will play 1 game before being hated more than Carle.)

Phoenix wants no parts of Bryzaster.

Maybe. I am still not sold that we get a top 5 pick although I am hoping for it. Obviously, if it's top 3, I don't move it.

i hear ya... problem is we'd have to pull the trigger before we know (if this is a deadline deal)

i'd at the very least wait until after the season before making such a trade

Moving the 1st before the lottery would be a HUGE mistake.

Really though, Phoenix is out of the playoffs and still being run by the league. Homer knows he has to get a Dman that will be here for a while. I could see it happening.

Time to sell first.

I just hope if we are going to miss.. we miss at 30th overall.. That may be tough with Florida, Tampa etc crapping the bed.

Not to mention if Calgary moves Iggy they will effectively be tanking it. But I think we ened up with a top 5 pick.

We are one injury to Bryz away from picking top 3 tho.

We are a three game win streak away from being in the playoff hunt.

Listen I know top picks are nice, top 3 are even nicer...

But it is the opposite of beneficial to have this young team wilt and lose. Fight for every point. That's the way they will learn. Drouin, MacK, Jones are all studs. But play to win. Regardless.

anything is possible. will not be surprised if something crazy happens (more likely) or if nothing happens.

I don't want to root for loses, believe me. But this team sorely needs a big addition via the draft after losing Pronger for good and sinking so much money into a D group that preforms at a decent level very inconsistently.

I know both are signed for next year, but I don't believe Coburn and Mez will both be on the roster next year. I think one will go, just not sure which one.

Coburn has had a rough year, Timonen is one year older, Meszy can't stay healthy.

Still, not even rooting for losses but NOT rooting for wins isn't gonna help this team any.
