As long as the Sedins are here I don't see Edler waiving.
If they are not extended after next year who knows?

Doesn't have to waive . You could make a deal for a draft pick with Vegas

Oh totally.
Very likely that Edler plays out this year and the next.
Pure speculation.

He looks like he could be exciting . I would leave him until you know what you got
- VANTEL


i thinks he's looked very promising lately. Still won't be surprised if he spends beginning of next year in AHL. Hope he can add some muscle over the summer. JV's transformation is promising as well. We need his style of play. Also, be interesting if JB can get Dahlen over next year to play in the AHL as well. Looks like the SEL is luring him in tho.

Bo is as good as we have, but if the price is right you move him.

It's not like we're moving Crosby, McDavid or Matthews.

Agreed.
No one player to blame for the season (or coach for that matter).
Collective effort.

Although i don't expect a total overhaul, the only players i would not move, given their age, value, contract is:

Granlund, Bo, BB
Stetcher, Tree, OJ
Demko

i'd be willing to part with anyone else i think for the right price.

Y'all bandwagon tankers are taking this thing to far lol.

There has to be some semblance of bonafide NHL experience/leadership left on this roster to eventually aid in taking this team out of the basement.

Bottoming out is the easy part here folks.

More than likely. He will be Hamhuis 2.0 and walk for nothing. This is your one chance to move him for a pick if he refused to waive.

Other teams will try this also to move contracts

I agree with DCT on this he needs better line mates but he looks NHL ready

Yup, but even that was harder than normal because they were a very good team before the slide. Adding UFAs just prolonged the process.

Did you see the first 13 games


We are on a seven game losing streak I would rather take my chances with other combinations . Too many games where we scored one or less

Oi!

Never been a tanker.

If you read my post, i said i don't expect everyone to be traded, just listed those i would not move.
I also said today that we need vets on this team.

Agreed. He will probably walk.

It's a long shot that he'll be moved, fun to speculate tho.

The Sedins and Edler will never be moved. Ever. Now that that's settled, should we move Tanev?

That's why I blame the guy who signs the cheques, why would anyone keep paying for the same crap.

Speaking of Hall, he's been pretty darn underwhelming in NJ...
I know he ain't got much to work with, but just 20 goals on the season lol?

I know we ain't in much position to boast but....Christ that NJ roster is dismal

Seriously though, look at this garbage.

Poor kid, seems like he would be a big game player.
