Almost September trade block: TBL

[Nick]

I can smell hockey in the air; saw my own men's league charge to my credit card this week, that means it's almost time


I'd like to grab an early waiver pick, and am interested in 14 & 15 2nd round selections.


Save a year of waiting with Gabryel Paquin-Boudreau, SJS's 2nd round seleciton in the most recent draft.
Chris Conner signed with PHX for 0.55 - nice cheap option.
Fresh off of a strong mem-cup showing, Troy Rutkowski signed with COL for 0.80 - a long shot to make a team, but it's a little more likely on the avs, hahah.
Riley Boychuk was traded 1:1 for Talinder, I'm not asking that much in comparison, he's signed for a very reasonable $.581M
Chris Terry got his first NHL taste this past year, on Carolina he's a depth option for just .525


I have NYR's waiver which I would be interested in moving up, or MTL's '14 2nd rounder which I'd be open to moving for an earlier pick in the '15 draft.


Note: I'm able to do any deal that is +/- 1M in cap.

In terms of bigger pieces: Could be a deal for Kulemin in the works, and recieved some interest in Downie yesterday.

[The BBKL Insider]

hey Pete

got a dman to trade?

[The BBKL Insider]

kule+downie for burns

i'd probably do it

[Nick]

2.65 + 2.8 < 5.5 + another player.

Could be worth following up.

[kimmer]

will add 13th overall waiver

[The BBKL Insider]

will add 13th overall waiver

with downie's injury + the Avs not sure how his recover went, that could be straight murder on u

good deal for nick

[kimmer]

Burns makes 5.760

[shooker]

could be the end of an era if paul trades burns here lol

[The BBKL Insider]

we went through it with Arian

What's your source for "not sure how recovery went" ? I've been following news on him and havent' seen any mention of it. Typical Steve the friend of a GM stuff or something substianial I've missed?

[The BBKL Insider]

nope, just HF boards.

my GM buddy doesn't know anything about the Avs.

[shooker]

we went through it with Arian

I don't know if I could get over it this time. I am too emotionally invested.

[Nick]

I don't like the cap/# situaiton, even if Burns is a much better player than either of Kules or Downie. I'll be passing on it.

Train's leaving. It's completely up to you to assess the player + validity of Steve's continuous comments/recommendations being a troll or a truthful one. All I know is that I'm offering him up on my own power and decision.

You know who to come to, Paulie Walnuts

truthful buddy

[Nick]

Ye. It spends all of my cap and potentiall more, depending on what Coho signs for. Additionally I made the choice to add depth and wingers who's h2h contribution exceed their value, trading them away before camps start seems like a short-sighted move to me
