I know, huge mistake. I've been asking around if anyone would entertain making a deal for a first.

No one has budged.

I have 3 firsts and would be amenable to moving 2/3
Edit: my own is the one I'm keeping because my team has no heart and is a bunch of (frank)ing whiners

It's all about finding two people willing to dance...











...And somehow persuading you to give up Malkin

Tanev is my favourite Canucks defenceman, I love how he's playing.

We can wish for Seabrook but most likely will end up with Oduya.

I know you probably don't want my advice, but if I were you I'd put up Marleau and Hossa up for bid(separate deals, and not at the same time) sometime soon where the best deals win(only for younger players, no one 30+). Maybe even see if you can trade one back for your own first, if not then target other firsts round picks that have the potential to be top 3 picks, I wouldn't pay too much for picks outside of the top 3 or so, guys who don't make the NHL right away sometimes don't play regularly for another 2 years. You can buy them lower later next year if you really want one. Unless you really think the top 10 guys next year are gonna be NHL-ready.

I'd also be scouting the waiver wire or cheaply through trade for any young players currently in junior/AHL that have a chance to become nice young NHL players next year. So then next year you can keep them or flip them(your choice).

It's just that guys like Marleau, Hossa, Glencross, Hudler, Ribeiro, Versteeg as your core up front aren't gonna get you into the playoffs, and they're only gonna lose value next year as they get another year older. They have more value to the playoff contenders in this league than they do for you, and it's vice-versa with young guys. They hold more value to you then they do for contenders so there's deals to be made for you.

Just my two cents.

I don't remember who I traded my first to. But my god would it be nice if I could get it back.

If I was the rest of the league , I would leave the Hawks rot in cap hell unless they had a sweetheart deal. Rape and pillage with offer sheets

I see why Chompsey got out.


I'm trying to build something though. Some useful younger pieces coming on

Only problem is that the bottom feeders are too desperate, they can't afford to pass up a generous deal. I'm sure STL/LA/STL would love that though.
