NSH trade deadline

[kyuss]

Ideally, I'd like to add a center, a winger and a goalie.

But by the look of it, I'm not even sure I'll be able to upgrade one of those positions...

anyway:

- the goalie thing is all about Bob's uncertain status for this season.

- the center, to give you an idea, Trocheck is a player I identified as a good fit, but his GM is a buyer at this deadline.

- winger.. looking for an upgrade at a viable cap hit (I have enough wingers)


my current cap room is misleading.. when Bob comes back it will be tight again

looking forward to entertaining ideas.


On the block:

Colborne:
having his best NHL season to date, almost 2 hits per game, 58% on draws, some SHTOI especially as of late, just turned 26 could develop into a nice BBKL piece and has a cap friendly salary, BUT as of now his production is probably still too inconsistent for a contender.

Tlusty:
he is out for season, injuries ruined his year, could be moved if you have interest for next season

Gaborik:
I don't know how long he is going to be out, that's why he is on the block, not sure he will be able to contribute in the first rounds of playoffs..

Bobrovsky:
above average starter, and could be great under Torts (like he was before going down to injury again) next season, but at this point I wonder if he'll be able to help me for this year playoffs

Kemppainen:
faceoff and shtoi guy on his first season with the Bruins, not a good fit on my team cause he is not waiver exempt (unlike in the nhl)

Ekholm:
given his contribution since the Jones trade and the current low salary, I'd only move him before the off-season for an upgrade at a different position that doesn't worse my cap situation (so probably not too many options out there. He has been good)



feel free to bring up ideas on different players

Trocheck always available Mik provided valuation is fair.

Teockeck for ekholm+bobs

Like the valuation there Steve!

[foofnik]

If anyone likes Steve Mason we might be able to swing a 3way here. Inquire within.

lots of talks but nothing done yet

I'd like it not to come down to the last day like in the past, so throw me ideas today rather than tomorrow if you see something, thx

[Fraser]

Mik you've got a lot of youth I like. And in looking to sell. If ive got some pieces you'd be willing to pay for let me know

Ekholm

[kyuss]

was more interested in that 1st you used to own... and this deal would make my team worse for the playoffs anyway, rather than improve it, even more so considering their different cap hits.

Thanks for the offer though

Ekholm

Mason:
could be had in a deal for another goalie supposed to post better numbers (wins) in the rest of the season. I like his cap hit though.

Kemppainen:
faceoff and shtoi guy on his first season with the Bruins, not a good fit on my team cause he is not waiver exempt (unlike in the nhl)

Bob moved, a couple of more trades might happen (read above)

[Fraser]

Interested in Zacha

[kyuss]

bump

[kimmer]

Malkin for Perry

[kyuss]

one player is anything like the other, but thx for the offer

[kyuss]

still looking to add a center.

Preferably the deal would involve roster players (Colborne? Ekholm?), otherwise needs to be waiver exempt (would still need to stay out as total # of contracts)
