Johnny DangerFace Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Oops. Messed that up. Thanks for the welcome. I probably won't post much. Just my thing.. I have not seen much posted about Deslaurier and believe he has a bright future here. I hope TM drafts well so I can get some good local hockey for a year or two until they hit buffalo. And I like Nic with #44. Kinda symbolic of that one two combination he has. Oops. Messed that up. Thanks for the welcome. I probably won't post much. Just my thing..

I'll take one Gustav Nyquist. What's that, Holland hung up on me? Damn, fine, I'd target Anthony Mantha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Haha! :lol: What, what!! In the butt! But do the Red Wings know about the Marfan's issue? :rolleyes: Insider Trading: Free Agent Fishing <3:55> Did the Leafs inquire about Jason Spezza? How many teams are pursuing Paul Stastny? Will Evander Kane find a new home in Philly? The Insiders discuss. This is the TSN segment where Dreger mentions Detroit's interest in Myers at just before 3 minutes.

MattPie Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I guess I'm all in. I don't see Hodgson or Foligno on a contending team, so, while the shop is still open they may as well sell. I dunno, Hodgson is 49th in points for centers this year on a terrible team. If the team gets better and he picks up 15 (to 60-ish) more points he's be in the low 20s. That seems like a solid #2 Center. That would put him at #6 or so second-line center standings. That kind of points out what the good teams are doing: they have two centers in the top 20 in points. Hodgson could be a decent #2 (given that 15 more points is reasonable). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played RW for a while at the end of last season at and world championship with some success. I wonder if they keep him there moving forward.

I'm honestly starting to think Spezza may be possible... Has Spezza ever really been considered the type of leader you want to influence a young team? Sure there's the Murray connection, but I'm not at all convinced his comment points to Spezza (especially when you consider the rumored asking price).

TrueBlueGED Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I think LeCavalier or Kesler fit closer to that bill If we give up assets for Lecavalier's rotting carcass or Kesler's increasingly decaying body, I'll snap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if capgeek is correct, Lecavalier also has a NMC, so I'd say that's out the window as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to sound like a typical Sabres' fan, but I would prefer Moulson or Ott over Spezza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm honestly starting to think Spezza may be possible... He said he had no idea about a blockbuster trade, but thinks there must be one happening due to lack of commitment from other GMs. Trading for Spezza os definitely a blockbuster trade; so i doubt he is trading for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I doubted Spezza, too. But there's been nonstop talk about a "mystery" team in the East. Since just about everybody has been mentioned I started wondering. I just don't think Ottawa would do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
