Why would the Leafs give up Hainsey for practically nothing? Nielsen was traded from the Leafs to the Flames for a waiver-cleared Klimchuk. While they've been trying to upgrade their defense so it's not the case, Hainsey has been a top 4 player for them this season getting 20 minutes a night.
And why would the Oilers want Nielsen in a trade for Nurse?
"Hey Dubas, sure you can have Nurse...on one condition, get us that nothing AHL player back from the Flames and then we can talk."
The only way it makes sense is if Dubas forgot he traded Nielsen and included him in the trade as a throw in and then was like "crap, I need to get him back."

This rumour probably isn't even a rumour. Its probably nothing because it's so crazy.
But...I don't know. Maybe the Oilers are interested in Nielsen but also Connor Brown and the 2nd round pick? And because the Leafs want Nurse, they are willing to get what the Oilers want?

Love how every trade deadline show thinks the SJ are better than us. Will make it that much sweeter when they get bounced in the 1st rnd.

All quiet on the #Flames front so far this morning. Wonder if it might stay that way....

Not surprising to hear Calgary and Nashville are also checking in on NYR’s Kevin Hayes. Stone, Simmonds, Hayes all moving targets for a number of clubs.

At this point, I think I would be pretty happy if that is indeed the case.

It would be totally on-brand for the Oilers to request Brown and Nielsen from the Leafs for Nurse, not realizing that Nielsen was traded to the Flames earlier this season.

Yeah, I would be happy too given the prices I've been hearing. However, given the price the Sharks paid for Nyquist, I'm hoping the Flames are able to wait until the last minute and pick up a bargain.

I feel we really need to try and get a difference maker, but in saying that, not at all costs. Unfortunately San Jose has moved their needle even more with picking up Nyquist, and I'm hoping that the Flames can do the same.

Devils with the first move of the morning. Marcus Johansson will go today as well. New Jersey looking for a 2nd round pick.

I gladly pay what SJ just paid for Nyqvist IMO I don’t think what Zuccarello got was too much cost either regardless of the u fortunate injury he just had right after acquisition. I’m hoping we add something, it’s the first time in a long time we’ve been in a position at deadline day where it made some sense to add.

As much as I enjoy trades, I'd love it if the only trade today was Kinkaid just to watch the media flailing around.

I guess there's no point letting them talk if your asking price hasnt been met. Perhaps other GMs are expecting Dorion to blink first.

Some tidbits from Specs hockey
Quote:
Michael Russo reports the Minnesota Wild might not be done dealing.
Russo thinks it’s possible Mikael Granlund or Jason Zucker could be moved. League sources claim Wild GM Paul Fenton has shopped both players heavily
The Nashville Predators, Fenton’s old team), is said to be very interested in Granlund. Russo wonders if a swap involving Predators winger Kevin Fiala as part of the return might be possible.
|
Quote:
Unless the Detroit Red Wings are willing to accept a second-round pick for goaltender Jimmy Howard, Ansar Khan doesn’t expect he’ll be moved today.
|
Quote:
Jim Matheson believes the Oilers are likely to retain winger Alex Chiasson and attempt to re-sign him. GM Keith Gretzky is said to have “no stomach for taking a draft pick or another team’s B or C prospect for his top-six winger.”
