Predict 'em - Flames Trade Deadline Moves

[nik-]

Adam Larsson

It would likely be Bouwmeester + for him. Not necessarily out of value, but organizational attachment + value.

[Bourque's Twin]

To Pittsburgh: Iginla
To Calgary: Olli Maata, 2013 1st round pick

[djsFlames]

It's been stated by all GMs involved that Iginla is clearly too slow for Boston, LA and Chicago's style of play. It's also been reported after second viewing by Pens scouts that he is in fact not only too slow, but too physical for Pittsburgh's style of play. Pittsburgh also has a strict limit of 500 goals scored for incoming players, as it is feared it would instill jealousy in its two young stars. Unfortunately, Iginla exceeds this. Also, there is a large concern that it would disrupt Crosby's fragile relationship with his linemates, as it has been long speculated that there may have been a "bromantic relationship" developed between the two men during the 2010 Olympic winter games. This on top of Iginla having a long reputation of being a cancer in the dressing room.

-Nobody ever.

Sorry but I have not heard that anywhere.... LA is not a fast team nor is Boston. Hawks and Penguins are quick.

Remember Penguins just acquired Brendan Morrow.... I would not view him as a quick skater.

I predict the Flames make a bunch of deals no one saw coming.

I would suggest you search the user Rudee and you might have a better understanding.

Unless this was a sarcastic post.

OK I’ll give this a crack.

I predict Iggy to LA or Boston
- If it is Boston the deal is Iggy for Eddy+Knight+1st
- If it is LA the deal is Bernier straight up

Stajan/Tanguay/Cammalleri stay – teams won’t want to take on their cap hits next year

Bouwmeester stays as the team believes he can be part of the solution going forward

Kipper stays both because he wants to go, and because the organization wants to treat him right and abide by his wishes

Sarich for a 5th, maybe to Boston

Jackman for a 5th, maybe to SJ

Gio stays – and is named the new captain next year

Glencross stays

Comeau for a 4th

Stempniak goes East for a 2013 2nd and a 2014 2nd.

[David Struch]

To Blackhawks: D Jay Bouwmeester
To Flames: C Mark McNeill (18th '11)

To Maple Leafs: LW Mike Cammalleri
To Flames: D Matt Finn (35th '12)

To Penguins: RW Jarome Iginla
To Flames: D Derrick Pouliot (8th '12)

[JurassicTunga12]

Iginla for Khokhlachev, Knight/Caron/Spooner, 2013 1st

[Vinny01]

In the Boston/Iggy deal.....who is "Eddy"?

[Canada 02]

Iginla to Pittsburgh for Harrington, Dumoulin and a 1st

Sarich to St. Louis for a 3rd or 4th. Blues need a guy like Bouw, but their new owner is running the team on the cheap

Stempniak to a low scoring playoff team like Minnesota, Ottawa or New Jersey; I'll guess to Minnesota for a prospect like Jason Zucker

Ah I see. Through this whole possible Iggy trade ordeal, I've been scouring the interwebz and feel like I know every Bruin/Penguin/Hawk and King prospect inside and out haha. Right away I was like who is "Eddy" and how did I miss him?

Krug is an intriguing prospect. He's got a high ceiling IMO, but due to his size he may end up struggling just like Kris Russel. He's doing really well for a 21 year old rookie in the AHL though.

[TheKurgan]

To Boston: Iggy
To Calgary: Spooner + Boston's 1st in 2013

To Finland: Kipper
To Calgary: a kick in the nuts!

Comeau, Jackman, and Sarich for crappy picks.

[dammage79]

Chi: Iginla
Cgy: Bolland and one of Pirri or Teravainen?

[Rerun]

Iggy gets traded, along with a couple of fringe players, for minimal return but other than that nothing of significance happens that changes the dismal character of this team. Team ownership lacks the boldness or foresight to make the needed changes to this team. Deep in their hearts they still believe that most of the answers, and the key to winning an eighth place finish (next year), are still in the locker room.

Yep... that's right. I've lost all hope for this team under current management.

[Canada 02]

Iginla is the only significant piece that matters now; everyone else of consequence is under contract, and can be moved at the draft, or next years trade deadline

The Hawks should be looking at a deal to push Bolland down to the third line center where he really excels - although 2nd line centers available on non-contender teams looks limited. With Kane, and Hossa on the right side, and Sharp and Saad on the left they got decent wingers, it's not a huge issue (when healthy). Kane and Sharp can play center, but the Hawks seem to want to avoid that, so moving their de facto second line center when they're already weak down the middle, compared to the other contenders, doesn't seem like a great hockey trade.

I could see Bolland becoming available in the off-season as he's a bit expensive for what should be a third line center, especially with how he is playing this year, but unless the Hawks grab a second line center in another trade, I don't see them moving him this season.

I could maybe see a Grabovski-Boland trade. Grabovski has shown more of an offensive flair, he might still not be an ideal number 2 center but he fits the role better than Boland. Leafs grab some cap relief to re-sign Bozak without having there third line center making 5.5M.
