Rocket-68 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Here is an interesting question, could Vancouver and Pittsburgh make a trade along the lines of the following Step 1 Kuz to Pittsburgh and Crosby to Vancouver ... yes, will probably need a 1st attached to Kuz along with at least a B-prospect Step 2 after season is over, Crosby goes back to Pittsburgh for Kuz Somehow I don't think Step 2 could be part of a formal trade agreement and at best have to be a wink-wink handshake "let's connect in July and do the second part of the trade" Bored and asking from some trade experts that I am sure float around this forum what the answer would be. Yes, hopefully giving up a lot and "renting" Sid for one year gets us into the SCF. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skill Scoring 55.2% F/O percentage Two years removed from a point a game, +61 season. Honestly, that would be coup if we could get him. I guess the question much like Petey is what is he going to look for in a contract? Better yet, would Calgary be that dumb to let him go, and what would they want? No point going all swedish house mafia. We got enough in the pond. RELAX. The only thing Calgary could give us is Huberdeau with retaining %50. Then we could give them lotsa choice who they want back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t think Kuzy has the skills that Tochett is looking for in a forward that can be learned quickly. Defensively responsible and can score. Right now Kuzy isnt even being a threat to score consistently which makes it difficult to play him. They need a big scoring power forward. I hope they can get one eventually.

I have also seen these Guentzel proposals but I don't know how that's even a possibility. The Pens are two points out of a payoff spot. They're not trading anybody unless it's for an upgrade.

Yes, agreed which is why I said in a separate post Sid the Kid is a pipe dream. Guentzel is at least within the realm of possibility although I personally think Lindholm would be more likely than Guentzel. As a wise man once said "everything is for sale, it all depends on the price paid and circumstances surrounding the transaction." Just ask Peter Puck and Wayne Gretzky.

Tusk Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Just now, BPA said: I would go Hogz + 1st for Lindholm. He's a UFA. You want more of that? so its June or bust? no thanks man... slow up a bit. If we can get a long term forward on a long contract that someone needs to dump, that is our target. Looks like Toronto will have a few they are willing to retain on come TDL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
