2017 Trade Deadline Discussion Mega-Thread

[jameslacarte]

I liked Franson. Wish the Leafs would'nt have given him up. He was our best defenceman at the time & had a crap load of points that year. Another Leaf head shaker!!

Two deals to report already this morning:

Brendan Smith goes to the Rangers for a pair of draft picks to Detroit

Viktor Stalberg leaves Carolina for the Ottawa Senators.

Discuss.

a 2nd & 3rd seems like a lot for Brendan Smith.

At least the Red Wings are making deals.

Still hoping to see the Oilers add 2 or 3 pieces before the deadline.....

A backup goalie
Add to Center and/or Right Wing depth.

Don't expect them to add anyone huge, don't expect anyone big to be moved out, don't think they should be moving out a 1st or a top prospect... but bringing in some vet help for the playoffs would be nice.

It's funny for me to see the Wings being sellers this time of the year. Usually I'm hoping they're going be buyers to make a playoff push. This has been a down year for the Wings. They're probably going to make a couple more trades before the deadline tomorrow. Hopefully they'll reload and give the new arena a proper opening next year.

Halak?

[30ranfordfan]

I'd be happy to take Halak... depending on what they move....

Mark Fayne & something (The Monster??) for Halak & something (depth dman in the AHL) ?? Halak's salary makes me not love the idea, but if the Oilers can dump a bad contract, or the Isles pick up part of it... I say go for it.

There was an Eberle for Halak & Strome rumor floating around yesterday... which makes zero sense. I'd be fine with an Eberle trade, but not for that.

Halak?
