Pittsburgh Trade Deadline
PostedCOLON Wed Feb 24, 2016 10:42 am
Looking to upgrade at Wing and Centre.
Below are players I'm actively shopping/looking to upgrade on, but all players are available in discussions.
Centre:
Mike Fisher - would add for improved stats
Nik Spaling - not sure of his new role on SJS given they already have so many centres; would add for improved stats. young and cheap.
Wing:
Farnahm/Rinaldo/Randell (exempt) - NHL bodies to be paired with picks/prospects for an upgrade
Kevin Porter - solid peripherals and contributing at C with PIT.
Defense:
Michal Rozsival - old fart, playoff fill in.
John Moore - young, cheap, and does well in all categories
Nick Schultz - block/SHTOI master
David Schlemko - Great season with NJD, cheap, will definitely get another solid contract next year.
Jarred Tinordi - getting some time with ARZ, hopefully more after vets are moved at deadline.
Prospects:
Jason Dickinson (C) - fantastic year this year in AHL with Texas. Likely NHL next season I'm thinking (depends on spots opening up on the big club)
Axel Holmstrom (C) - a couple years away
Markus Hannikainen (W) - should be back up with CLB before season is over - season been affected by injury
Greg McKegg (C/W) - getting some NHL time now with injuries to FLA
Jerome Leduc (D) - good season with AHL Buffalo
Kasimir Kaskisuo (G) - great numbers on a poor team; always a good sign. Good size; likely to be signed once college signings start.
Other bodies (haha) - really not a whole lot exciting prospects, but happy to discuss everyone
Picks:
2017 Car 1st - would need something better than Ryan Ellis to move it
2017 Car 4th
2016 2nd - Owed by CHI; happy to have you take my place in the deal / offer it as a "conditional pick"
Lemme know if you see a fit. Cheers.
