Trade Deadline Predictions

[TheScorpion]

Ok folks here are some of the top trade targets available for the deadline. Let's play a game and predict where they land!

Either pick a team or say they won't be traded. We'll tally up scores after the deadline passes and we'll shower praise on the winner!

The players (in no order):

1. Chris Kreider (NYR)
2. Wayne Simmonds (NJ)
3. Alec Martinez (LA) -- VEGAS
4. Travis Hamonic (CGY)
5. Alex Galchenyuk (MIN)

10. Andreas Athanasiou (DET)
11. Mike Hoffman (FLA)
12. Eric Staal (MIN)
13. Ron Hainsey (OTT)

Heard Palmieri is indeed on the block.

If the Flames mandate from ownership is to go all in (which probably wouldn't be wise, but out of our control), I hope it's somehow to snag him.

If the Flames are more focused on defence... perhaps Dillon?

Wow I hope not. Athansiou and namestnikov are not as good as they may appear on those basement dwelling teams and neither knows anything about playing a 200 foot game. Athanaisiou plays a 50 foot game in a straight line! And you've traded kylington for him!

Demelo is meh.

This would be a disastrous deadline imo. I would very much jump on the fire brad train.

[JurassicTunga12]

Leeman4Gilmour got Martinez to Vegas right!

[FanIn80]

I don’t have time to fill the whole thing out right now, but my big predictions are:

Dillon to WSH
Toffoli to VAN
Scandella to STL
DeMelo to WPG
I want to say Martinez to VGK, but I’m not sure yet so I’ll hold off on that one.

and for the bonus round, I’m going to predict that Matthew Tkachuk stays in Calgary.

[Leeman4Gilmour]

Leeman4Gilmour got Martinez to Vegas right!

I've taken the remainder of the day off to bask in my glory.
