Stewart for Morin.
- mhp


Meh, Just does not do a lot for me. I want guys who are established. Perron at 26 could be a key.

We could add to the trade and give up a mid-level prospect with it.

Edmonton is looking for a Stewart like player so who knows.

Who knows what value Stewart has though?

Fenwick and Corsi does not measure heart
- homiedclown



It can also measure a goalie standing on his head and as the team gets dominated on possession while playing an outdated style of hockey and soccer.

As a ref, you know full well that we can't afford another Isles-sabres trade
- Sabresfan-365


I'm always over there yanking their chain. Reality is they don't have any picks to give up. Though I think they have Philly's 2nd?? hmmmmm

His value has to be pretty low atm, that's why a Stewart for Morin trade makes some sense. Both guys need a change.

True, been to the edm boards? Imagine making a big trade with them. You'd have your work cut out for you.

If we get either mcdavid or eichel, are we in a spot that we can offer sheet an rfa and give up 3 or 4 first rounders? Tarasenko, Yakapov, Toffoli, Reilly Smith, Etam, Atkinson, Silvferberg, Connolly are all RFAs. With our pipeline, it may be the perfect time for an offer sheet, especially with a lot of teams that will be close to the cap that may have trouble signing these guys.

Tarasenko is the only one of that group worth giving up multiple first rounders for. Also its never going to happen

Murray is a GM in the league for less than 5 years and this would poison his ability to do deals for another 5 years.

Doesn't seem like Murray's style but who knows. Giving up 4 1sts is very risky though. Those 1sts could be assets down the road and it probably doesn't help your rep if you start offer sheeting players like the oilers did a while back.

Just checked the numbers again and realized that an offer sheet for $5m is only a 1st and a 3rd pick. $6.5m is a 1st, 2nd and a 3rd.

Yeah, I think that's why the Oilers had to move Kevin Lowe out of the GM spot, although he still has some executive title in that Tire-Fire of management. I think he had some feuds with LA GM Dean Lombardi as well.

I think the Flames offer sheeted Ryan O'Reilly which inflated his salary and caused a lot of angst between him and the AVs. It basically doesn't pay to offer sheet anyone.
I think that was Jay Feaster...who I think also got canned.

Woulda been interesting if we had taken those four picks from the Oilers for Vanek, though.

The other side, is that there is no guarantee that they would have had the first overall with Vanek.
