I'd love to get Vanek cheap to just play WR to Eichel's passes to the front. Plus we could have a 2nd PP with 2 guys that are great just outside the crease. (Moulson & Vanek) Thus we'd have 2 differing styled PP attacks with ROR/Eichel shooters to Reinhart's screens with Okposo and Risto aiding. The 2nd having a more old school get the puck to the net and between our deflection and jamming we should get goals there. Plus there'd be a better chance an opponent could counter such differing PPs. Plus Vanek devours the Bruins

Kane? Do they have any D prospects we should be interested in?

I'd say yes to a degree, the fact his contract is also his number tells me at very least something was done to help the team going forward. Out of his ELC he signed a 5 year 8.7 mil contract. Then he signed a 12 year 8.7 mil contract. This one definitely seems that at least to some degree he didn't want to hand cuff his team.

Varying on his asking price, yes

I'd be tempted to offer Grigs a 1 year >1mil contract to C the 4th line due to his faceoff ability. That is if we can't get a Bonino or a Boyle to fill 3/4th Center and can't get the wingers to play Reinhart on line 3.

Kane and "54" for 21?

Shattenkirk, offensive dman with little skill in his own zone most nights and had a horrid playoff. Seeing as he and Risto both get their points on the PP, I see no use for him

I'd lose all respect for Botts if he trades Reinhart and keeps Kane. Kane is a cancer that needs to be cut out

No way Jose, O'Reilly is a core piece and untradable

Here's an interesting question would you trade #8 for #13 and #15?

He's probably taking Ullmark and if Peterson leaves we'll be rather empty goalie wise

Can they please end this ads on the jersey thing, it makes me sick

I think we're trading him to Vegas to be honest based on the lack of a press release and his off ice problems plus Gallant's history with the guy. However I don't think it's to save Ullmark but rather to get another Dman that Vegas grabs.

Any interest in Methot?

Regardless I'd still trade him if only to help rid any anti practice sentiment he brings

I'd give him a 1mil x 1 year contract, Botts would know who he is and may hope to reignite the 25 year old injured guy.

I refuse to trade Reinhart, I'm trading Kane but no one else in our top 6

Since it's the player not the team refusing to sign.

Leave the loophole but give the teams some type of compensation

I'd love to get de Haan, get Housley, and until Guhle gets up to the NHL we could run de Haan-Risto McCabe-Bogo Gorges/Falk-Antipin Tell Bogo to forget being a defensive defenseman and to play open like the 30 games near the end of 15-16 and with Housley's help we could have 5/6 Dmen capable of jumping up into the play, and then when Guhle comes we'd have 3 D pairs with the ability to cause chaos from anywhere.

FYI: Housley's captain on the WJC Gold he won with the US was none other than Jake McCabe

Ennis, CHI's 2nd in 2017& ours in 2018 plus a B prospect like Karabachek for Eberle Kane and Min's 2nd for 11, Martinez, Brown(50%) 11 and Marcus Foligno for Boone Jenner Girgs & WSH's 3rd to Chicago for Kruger and their 2nd

I certainly wouldn't

Officially no, unofficially they won't because they want full attention on the final

To be honest I see 11 as just another asset, like a way to exchange funds. For instance Kane won't fit on the Wild but the 11th overall would
