If you ever had a failed career in the WHL... you'd know there isnt enough foot speed on that line to be exciting.

The puck movement would be "special"!!!

2 of 3 are in the KHL I think...

So we're not getting Karlsson now?

I could live with something like that.

Vegas must have a lot to offer or different packages that would be more appealing.

Whatever the move Ottawa makes, they must want to finish higher than last season so they don't give away a top 3 pick to Colorado. we are struggling right now, can't see what we can offer to make them immediately better.

but agree with you, JB has to always be talking to other gm's. has to know the market.

Eriksson, Sutter, Gudbranson, Granlund and our 2019 1st for Karlsson, Ryan, Gaborik and Smith

They get our most competitive and foundational players to ensure Avs don't get a good pick.

Ryan Horvat Boeser
Baertschi Smith Pettersson
Roussel Gaudette Virtanen
Gaunce Beagle Schaller
Gagner

Edler Karlsson
Hutton Tanev
Del Zotto Stetcher

Not even Benning is stupid enough to trade our 1st when we host the draft.

And that's the only thing Ottawa wants is an unprotected 1st round pick from a trash team

Giving that 2019 first to Colorado is gonna just kill Ottawa when they miss out on a franchise center


Colorado in the meantime will become a league powerhouse once again

Too much risk. Those three aren't Shink-McCann and Jensen. lol

No just say no

Build through the draft. We suck now we will suck with EK. Keep the promising young guns

I agree

I don't even think he's that dumb, and I think he's really dumb!!

LL traded their 1st for schneider when they hosted. Its even more possible with a guy as dumb as benning now in complete control

Yep but they got a "great" character player in tkchuk.

I'm curious if Duchene walks after next year too.

I think fans would get over losing their first to acquire one of the best players in the game.

Ya Duchene could walk and they have no 1st or 3rd from that trade

It wouldn't be the 2019 first that fans freak out about. It will be the A/A+ player/prospect they lose.

Only to lose him to free agency.

If brock/petterson/hughes are involved, id pass. I know karlsson is top 5 dmen in the game, norris winner, etc. But the dude is almost guaranteed to hit free agency. His life in ottawa has been trash the last year, ownership and management have been garbage, i would want out too

Until they finish bottom 10 instead of bottom 5 and realize it was a stupid move.

The Canucks wouldn’t trade for one year of service lol. Jesus

- classic321

The offer is contingent on him signing an extension.

Peterson and a 1st

Or take Bobby Ryan and the 1st turns into a 2nd and a third.

That's from my source, the same guy who had Dobson as the 4th ranked D.

Only to lose him to free agency.


- classic321

Benning would be dumb enough to trade without a new deal in place.

Has anyone checked in on Vantel since this EK rumour surfaced?
