What's keeping Vancouver from trading Vrbata?
@travisyost Travis Yost
No one really wants him.

@imacVanSun
Brace yourself Vancouver: it is possible neither Hamhuis nor Vrbata gets traded.

That would be amazing.

I wonder what the going rate for Yakupov is at this point. A 2nd maybe? Highly doubt an NHL GM would pay a 1st for him.

Not that I'd want Treliving to trade for him, but Yakupov might actually be a nice reclamation project.

I wouldn't trade a 2nd for him...

I can't imagine you'd need to give up a 2nd for Yakupov at this stage of his career. Maybe a third, like Schultz.

Meh...I just get the feeling he's a selfish player with a not great attitude. That's just my uneducated assumption. I'm glad there's no chance of him landing here.

I'd trade a 3rd or 4th to get Yakupov. Why not see if you can fix him. At worst he'll disappoint and be a marginal player. No different that what you would get in the 3rd round anyway.

I would trade a 3rd for sure.

The Flames would likely have to overpay. I would give up one of our 2nds, since we need an RW or 2.

He is only 22. If it only took a 2nd rounder to get him I really hope the Leafs would be all over that.

I want no part of Yakupov, regardless of the price.

Yeah EDM isn't going to ship us Yakupov for the same price everybody else is offering, they'd make us overpay slightly. Having him blossom here would be painful for them.

I'd imagine they'd ideally ship him out of the division at least.

There are rumours that everybody not named McDavid, Draisaitl, Klefbom and Nurse are available.

I actually believe his attitude is decent and he does work hard. Problem is that he's gifted physically but not between the ears. His hockey IQ is in Comeau, Bourque territory.

Garrioch says Boedker turned down a 5 x $5.5mill AAV contract from Arizona

Quote:
There were some eyebrows raised when winger Mikkel Boedker, who is almost certain to be dealt by Monday, took the ice Saturday afternoon in Philly because many felt the Coyotes should protect the asset. If Eriksson isn't dealt, then Boedker is the next best forward available, although, the market was a little flooded before Saturday's action. A report by Craig Morgan of Arizona Sports indicated Boedker turned down a whopping five-year extension worth $5.5 million per season ...

The fake LeBrun FLAMESRULE posted above has 12 followers, but you have to do some checking to find that out first.
Why is anyone other than sureloss posting tweets anyway?

If it's worth knowing it's worth waiting for him to post it.

Brutal. Boedker is going to be the next Clarkson. He's not worth 5.5 million. He either knows that and is just finding reasons to get out of Arizona, or he's out of lunch and overpricing himself.

Yakupov doesn't have attitude problems. My sister manages a DQ in Sherwood Park. They had Yakupov come in on miracle treat day a couple years ago, he showed great attitude all through the day. Then not long after that he picked up a homeless man from downtown Edmonton and brought him out for supper.

If it's one thing I don't question about Yakupov it's his attitude.

Your decision-making would probably falter too if you ran out of lunch.
