Welp. I’m totally expecting Simmonds now, and honestly I think he’s this year’s Chris Stewart.

I'm happy Tre is not buckling under the pressure to pay the high price for Stone. I think Vegas ends up with Stone as a pure rental and pays a pretty heavy price.

I'd be happy with someone like Johansson for a 2nd +, or staying put.

Can I ask why you think a player on pace for 20 goals is equivalent to a guy who couldn't crack an NHL lineup on a regular basis and was waived?

How are they similar?

The more this drags out the more I hope the team sits tight or does something small. I'm actually excited about our team the way it is. Combine this with the flames adding picks in the offseasons by moving a player or 2. A great chance to win this year still and could look awesome next year both in the nhl and prospect ranks!

Wonder what non-rentals (say 2020 UFAs) are out there that may be available.

Kreider
Granlund
Hoffman
Toffoli

I wonder what the price is for Toffoli, having a bad season and if the Kings want to clear cap could be an interesting place to look.

Dont get the Stewart comparison to be honest

There's only one comparison I think you see and it's not hockey based

You don't watch the Flyers very often do you?

Stewart scored 28 in 2009-2010, 28 in 2010-2011 (in 62 games), 15 in 2011-2012, and 18 during the lockout shorten 2012-2013 season.

Starting to think that Stone stays in Ottawa, and Tre makes him a good offer in free agency.

Staal is my pick for an under the radar trade. Low acquisition, no bidding war and an upgrade on the second line RW. I'm pretty sure he can play both positions.

There's so many great forwards rumoured to be available. I really hope the Flames do not end up with Simmonds.

With Maloney telling us that we had something big last night but fell apart, do we still believe adragon023's twitter speculations?

I'm not advocating making trades for the sake of making trades... but it would be pretty disappointing to be rumoured in on EVERYONE and then standing pat at the deadline.
