What motivation does TB have to make that deal? Seems bad for them. Fantasy IMO.

Terrible deal for Boston. Zero chance they'd be interested in anything like that. Wet dream IMO.

I'd love that deal if it happened. Not sure Tanguay is tradeable or what his value is.

Not convinced Johansson will be better than Backlund long term. I'd stick with what we know and not dump Butler for nothing.

I like it. Don't think its unrealistic either.

Doesn't really improve us long term unless we re-sign Colaiacovo. Stempniak is one of our best leaders up front IMO. I'd deal him if we're getting something nice for the future but I don't really see the point of this deal.

Don't see why any big name UFA's would sign here at the point we're at in our franchise cycle. Why wouldn't Horton, Clowe or Murray go to a playoff team?
Love it if we landed Clowe. We desperately need some size and strength up front. Horton would be a good fit. Murray doesn't really make sense long term.
Not really sure what the Flames will do in the UFA market this year, should be interesting.
