<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Steinthekid</b></div><div>In order:

Detroit isn't going to take on that much salary for less then a third rounder MINIMUM

Vegas has no interest in Phil after getting Mark Stone and locking him up long term

GMJR basically said after the draft Letang and Geno aren't going anywhere so that is out the window

Ottawa deal is the most plausible one out of the bunch but given Melnyk is a cheapskate owner he would kill the deal most likely imho

Anaheim is rebuilding for the future at this point and literally laugh at that deal given in no reality is Nick Bjugstad worth 2 2s and a Third. At MOST he would fetch a return of a single 2

To think that we would get Tyson Barrie for a 2, an aging Hornqvist, a 4th rounder from a trade that doesn't happen and a Goalie like Jarry is at best laughable. There would need to be a 1 going back to Colorado in this deal instead of the 4th. Everything else MIGHT work in this trade but its still a BIG might.</div></div>

Given the reports that Colorado is shopping Barrie and looking for a tough forward I'd certainly see what else needs to be added to facilitate a Barrie/Hornqvist swap. It won't be this, but does something like Hornqvist, 1st, and a prospect get the conversation started? I don't really know, but I'd love to see Barrie on the Pens.
