Tread deadline thread

[mrmel29]

I don't see a big dump next year as I expect us t challenge for the playoffs with the right additions. Don't think future captain Kreids is going anywhere. Lundquist could certainly go along with shattenkirk and namestnikov. Rangers love fast although wouldn't be upset if he went. I think quinn likes the way vesey plays and would be surprised to see him go.

I'd like to see them extend Kreider.

Me too and I think they will

McQuaid to Columbus for a 4th/7th.

Edit: And D Julius Bergman..former 2nd rounder in 2014.

I'm surprised Ottawa didn't get more for Stone who already re-signed in Vegas. I would've thought a 1st along with a top prospect if he signed.

The prospect they got was a top prospect. He is a very talented defenseman prospect. They suck on defense and need all the help they can get.

Only three guaranteed 1st round picks were dealt this trade season (only one today). Makes the return for Hayes and Zucc look really good.

Now this summer we start phase 2 I think. Ton of cap space and five picks in rounds 1 & 2. Seven 1st round picks in the past three drafts (could be 8 if TB wins the cup). Let's roll.

Yeah i know Brannstrom was a great get but figured with Stone reupping they would have a stipulation for a 1st also. Vegas really made out well on the surface.

They paid out of their ass for him. They are going to have big cap problems soon.
