what do you think we would have to give up for Patrick sharp.

if we swap lander or arcobello the hawks would move to about 3 mill in available space.

would the hawks take a gernat maybe a 3rd round pick to round out the deal?

Why would we want Sharp though....we need a C not another LW.

I'd do that in a heartbeat... ROR is great IMO, there is our 2C while giving up a guy yhat isn't very good IMO.

ROR played wing all year. Has not been great at C....In fact was not great at all without Duchene as his Center.

and there's a big big difference between leaving your team at 27 after 7 seasons and leaving your team at 21 before playing a single game.

again, imagine Nurse somehow found a loophole then signed for a max ELC in Vancouver. Is he looking out for the best in his career? or is he a greedy (frank)?

- TheNugeIsHuge


Would not happen.

Again. Its mostly on the GM for not having the guy signed.

The asking price for Coburn was allegedly the 37th and 56th pick EDM had last year, and now PHI fans wouldn't take him for Perron straight up?

Also, sounds like Petry for Nielsen is the rumour circling around oil blogs now. They better find an improvement on Petry if they plan on sending him out of town

Wow 2 2nds for Coburn? And we didn't do that, instead we traded our 2 2nds for like 6 low round picks? That was not BOLD

Philly wouldn't do that deal because we don't need wingers, and Coburn is our best defensemen.

Kind of like how you wouldn't trade Petry for some players, because all it does is open up a huge hole on your squad. Deal makes the team worse, not better, despite being fair value.

That's fair, but the argument was that Perron is inconsistent and has concussion problems

A reasonable argument, but what player isn't inconsistent at times? A player with no concussion history at all could see their career end in a split second due to a concussion. Moot points IMO.

I think a fairer point would be that in today's NHL, Coburn is more valuable because he is a defensemen who can eat significant minutes. Perron is more of a fringe 1st liner but bonafide second line scorer on all 30 teams in the league. Even then, I don't think that would stop a deal involving the two.

It all really depends on the teams needs, but those players are certainly close in terms of value, at least IMO.
