Thread: Re-Build If they don't win the Cup
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>robnas94</b></div><div><i>I agree with the rebuilding part, but they'd never take on Clarkson's contract (or get rid of Girardi), they're (unfortunately) not going to trade Stepan (which sucks cause I can't stand him), that Edmonton deal won't happen, and Zuccarello is not worth a first round pick. Only thing that actually might happen is the Klein deal, but I highly doubt it. I'm a Rangers fan btw, so not hating here lol.</i></div></div>
I added Clarkson, because Columbus doesn't have much money so they might be willing to give better assets in return for someone taking his salary. As for the value of the players, yeah most of them I over valued, but i think Stepan could land a middle to late first round pick, second, and a middle six forward, considering what Buffalo gave up for O'Reilly. Your right with the Zucc trade they probably couldn't get a first, but he does have value. Finally, I could see them trading Girardi considering he is getting up there in age, and try to move him before he gets into the back-end of his contract where the Rangers are going to get into trouble.
Why don't you like Stepan?

Thread: Rebuild Continued
1) I could see a package of maybe Chris Tierney and two mid to late picks. Also what ever player the sharks would need to get rid of to fit under the cap. (Mike Brown if SJ doesn't want him)
2) Maybe Chris Tierney again and picks. (Mike Brown if SJ doesn't want him)
3) To get both JVR and Kadri it would have to be a large return no only because of the talent but also because SJ would have to clear cap. So maybe a package of Tierney, Wingles, Dillon, and maybe one of the big guns in Marleau/Thorton.

As you said the sharks are in a win now, but I also do not see them giving up Hertl or Nieto or another really good young player and Toronto does necessary want Wingles because of his age.

In all all three of these trades are unlikely without Marlea/Thorton because Hertl and Nieto are RFA net year and the sharks don't want to be up against the cap and not be able to sign them. I also don't see Toronto wanting either of these guys so a third team would have to be involved. All in all its not impossible but it is unlike that one of these trades is able to be spun.

Would you make any of these trades?
Who would you want SJ to give up for JVR, Kadri, or both?
