Just throwing that out there.

Careful lol, Kings hitmen might hunt you down giving away that tidbit of info.

Another great example why you don't focus on one goalie of the future.

Get three to four and let god sort em out.

This is off a Chicago Board on the same subject as here:

How can they have such high demands when they know their potential trade partners are so limited? You gotta assume Pitt is out after their 2 big moves. So basically Calgary is saying to L.A., Boston, & Chicago "Give it up or GTFO"

The above was me quoting others, I would not call requests for Iginla "insulting"...but I, and many 'Hawk fans would not want to see the best of our prospects traded for a position which is not a critical need.


The thread was mod-locked as I was in mid-edit...the above was quoted fro other CHi fans, I wouldn;t call offering Iginla "insulting"...but agree with the sentiment that, as RW is not a critical need, I would not offer Calgary the cream of our prospects, a feeling shared by a lot of 'Hawk fans.

though might just be a negotiating tactic to start high...it's almost insultingly high.

a) Iginla is gone at the end of the season, and they know it.
b) If they don't move him prior to the deadline they get nothting.
c) This is their best opportunity to get prospects for re-tooling.
d) The other 3 teams he is willing to accept a trade to know this.

At the end of the day I see them taking a pick and a prospect in return. I saw it written the Hawks gave them a choice of any prospect with the exception of Saad, Danault, or Teravainen. Also saw that the Flames wanna deal him outta the West. Talk about paintin' yourself into a corner. With the inept power play the Hawks have been exhibiting, if Bowman stands pat it'll be a major mistake.

Thread re-opened. If posts continue to target other posters (or their style, or their "intent"), then people will find themselves unable to post until after the trade deadline.

I survived the review!

Good stuff. Thanks for reopening the thread.

If true, then I doubt the Hawks get Iggy. Who do you have left for good prospects besides those?

[GreenLantern]

They got a couple Hayes boys, I am assuming they are brothers?

One plays with Gaudreau at Boston College. I wouldn't put them as the corner piece but could be a good secondary prospect.

Mark McNeil is having a good year for the Raiders in the WHL, 6'2 200+, big center.

Insultingly high? Paul Gaustad netted a first round last year. It's crazy how entitled Chicago media and their fans are. Like they expect a HOF player for a 2nd tier prospect and draft pick. Go back to your Hawks forums because Iginla isn't going to Chicago as those fans don't deserve him anyway.

[dammage79]

MMmm if CHI isn't willing to let go of Teravainen I would suspect that the Flames will go elsewhere with their baubles.

Mark Mcneil is 200% a Darryl Sutter player (Yes I said 200%).....he would be all over that. Jay Feaster likes small and slick. I dunno personally I would take Mark Mcneill in a hearbeat.

[PeteLFan]

John Shannon is awful, seems to have no sources just blows stuff out.

[bubbsy]

Curious, how would cp react if we traded gaudreau...

Iginla, gaudreau, 3rd rounder

For

Seguin, conditional 1st if iggy re-signs

[dino7c]

3rd or 4th line role on the Hawks for Iggy...my god sportsnet

McNeill projects to be a 3rd line NHL player maybe 2nd line at best. He's an okay player but not exactly what I would call a top prospect.

If that trade happened we would jump for joy. Not a chance Seguin is being dealt

Anyone who isn't happy with that return get a lifetime ban

[GreenLantern]

I wonder how they feel about giving up a roster player since they are so deep. Maybe Kruger?

Iggy + 3rd for 2013 1st, McNeil and Kruger?

Or Iggy for 2013 1st, McNeil and Kevin Hayes?

Gaudreau-Arnold-Hayes line the all Boston College All Flames line..

Ugh I don't see anything to 'hang your hat on' in that trade tough..

[bubbsy]

Ya that's brutal my bad. Lets throw in giordano to make it interesting....

Well, you have to do that one, but I doubt Boston would touch that with a forty foot pole
