i was listening to nhl radio a fan proposed a trade with arizona. our 6 + a 2nd + one of gelinas/merrill/severson.
they thought they would turn it down.
if shero can get the #3 without having to give up the #6 to get it then i would give them whatever they want. if this draft pans out the way everyone thinks it will then you would land 2 legit nhl players that would be top 6 on this team.
why would the coyotes do this? well they aren't going to be in arizona after this year heck maybe even after this summer. so maybe the owner wants to make the team more attractive? by adding a legit nhl player like camalari? + whoever else fans in whatever city they go to would have a better on ice product immediately
why wouldn't they do this? well they would make the team more attractive to potential new owners since they have less payroll. since they are moving whatever fan base gets them will want all their young players intact.
without hesitation i would offer camilari +1st next year + 2nd this year + 2nd next year. and throw in gelinas....try to get a pick back in return maybe like a 3rd or 4th rounder.
draft your franchise center in strome or marner. you can then afford to draft your prize d man at #6. oooooor draft strome hope marner falls to you. man you would have 2 franchise players youth on d and goalie all set.
i would then turn around and look at bringing in kessel. HEAR ME OUT.
save the 5 million in camalari salary i believe kessel gets 8? so thats taking on 3 million which we can afford. with that price tag on kessel i believe the market is very limited as it was for kovalchuk. so the leafs will be traded from a weak position since everyone knows they WANT to move him. offer two second rounders this year and merrill that would honestly be enough to get him if not an OVER PAYMENT.
so the devils would go into next year with
strome/marner kessel as additions minus gelinas and merrill. defense is always something that can be plugged by UFA. but we do have young d that can step in. scarlette? bourlon? or bring back oduya on a cheap deal
marner and kessel fill the void on RW. strome the #1 center we need. throw in boucher and stefan and there is our revamped top 6
