Nashville will probably do something for a top 6 winger. David Poile is all-in on this roster and I'm sure sees their peak window as this year and next year and basically the whole roster is already locked in for 2018-19. Mike Fisher is coming out of retirement but is probably waiting to sign until Monday to give Nashville contract limit flexibility at the deadline. Also Poile has said they are planning on bringing KHL/Olympic stud prospect Eeli Tolvanen over after the KHL season ends. They have like $13m in cap space so can probably add anyone they want. Stuff they can give up: - They have most of their picks for the next 3 drafts except for the 2018 2nd and 2019 3rd. Expect the 2018 first to get moved. - Dante Fabbro: the 2016 17th overall. D man for BU with 26 points in 30 games. Seems like he is likely being dangled as a high-value prospect. - Pontus Aberg: Has skill but hasn't shown a ton at the NHL level, though hasn't gotten that much of a chance. Good record in the AHL. - Mikka Salomaki: Seems to be kind of a disposable 4th liner but had one good AHL season, someone might want to take a chance on him. - Emil Pettersson: Older brother of Elias, the Canucks prospect, who seems to be way better. Emil is leading the Admirals in points though. That's probably it for interesting assets. I think the likely big pieces will be picks, Fabbro, and maybe Aberg. Rumored Targets: Rick Nash - There was a bunch of talk about this a few weeks ago but he would cost a lot and I think I saw Travis Yost (does he have contacts?) saying he heard it wasn't happening. Tomas Tatar - There was some talk about this from Friedman and Dreger this week. edit: I just saw some stuff about Poile talking to Ottawa about Karlsson, which is hilarious. Untouchables: Probably everyone on the NHL roster not mentioned above unless something crazy happens. Also probably Tolvanen. Thufir fucked around with this message at 17:59 on Feb 22, 2018 |

ThinkTank posted:The Canucks are desperate for defensive prospects. Does Sven Baertschi fit the top six winger bill? He's a second liner, but a pretty consistent threat offensively that tends to mesh well with whoever he's playing with. He's also decently reliable as a checker and an RFA at the end of the season. I would not be opposed to Nashville adding him but I don't think he would return Fabbro. I think that would give Nashville the most Swiss players ever on a roster though!

A 3rd seems like a lot but also Dale Tallon is dumb.ThinkTank posted:it's so strange that all three of Vatrano, Khoklachev and Griffith all failed to pan out. They're all pretty small I guess? Not sure you can say Khoklachev didn't pan out, he just barely got a chance in the NHL, hosed off the the KHL and seems to be pretty good there.

DO YALL WANT A BOXC posted:can nashville afford Nash and Zuccarello? if so i would do both for tolvanen, but zuke is Not Allowed to go to any other team They have 13m-ish cap space so they probably could but Poile said he wasn't moving Tolvanen.

El Gallinero Gros posted:It's probably due diligence but the idea of a D with Karlsson and Subban is some poo poo Yeah it's kind of absurd. I have to think Josi or Ellis or Ekholm would have to go back the other way though? Melynk would love the cost-certainty of Josi or Ekholm's deals, but they're both left shot? I dunno, it's a crazy idea.

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:How does Vegas have 50 contracts already? They can't have that many AHL guys. Roster, not contract. Ottawa is too. E: like maybe VGK had plans to put someone on IR and add Cole, but in order to retain on Brassard he also has to come on their roster on paper, so they need one more roster spot.

I don't know how this would be the reason for taking Reaves but someone on Twitter mentioned a few days ago that teams might already be keeping a Seattle expansion draft in mind so I dunno, maybe a reason for some things that might otherwise seem odd.

El Gallinero Gros posted:The Preds (14.1) do but they'd have to give up too much long term assets I'd think Vegas too. Don't think Nashville would want that Ryan deal under any circumstance though. Milwaukee scratched Yakov Trenin tonight so I guess he might be a trade piece.
