Wings traded Ulf Samuelsson's rights to Atlanta so they wouldn't take someone the Wings left unprotected (I forget who). So Thrashers got an extra pick out of it and then took the Wings backup goalie. Not saying it happens but it is a possibility if it comes to that.

if you forget who it was, then he wasn't as important or as promising as Matt Murray...

Read somewhere the offer has improves to OEL, first round pick and Strome for 1st overall. Geez. That is a hard offer to pass up.

That's fine but that's not where the conversation started. I brought it up as a possibility cause that has been used in the past, and because someone in the media also brought it up in the last few weeks. You said they couldn't make the deal with Vegas and yes they CAN but would they is a different argument.

Yotes that desperate to get Matthews? If that was offered, it would be tough for TO to pass it up but I also think it would be dumb for the Yotes to give that up.

As people on twitter have said, he's giving up some UFA years signing for 8 so you gotta pay up to get that. A little high now, but if he continues to be what we think, probably worth it in a couple years.

Yes, but give up a #1 D, a top level prospect and what could become a top level prospect to get one guy who is good but would be a marketing ploy? If he was from the midwest do you make that deal? That's how I would look at it. Are Matthews skills worth those 3 assets? My philosophy would be make your team the best it can and forget the rest of shit.

In all fairness, marketing for the Blackhawks is quiet the different beast than marketing the Phoenix...sorry...Arizona Coyotes.

I'm not saying I would do it, but they seem pretty hell bent on getting him as their cornerstone, and that has to be a huge reason why.

I get their team/fans will look at it differently than you or I would but I just think it could backfire.

It's gotten quiet out there the last few hours. Need more rumors and news.

Rumors Bishop is asking for 7x7 from Calgary, TBL gave permission to talk, and Calgary might turn attention to Howard. If true, thanks Bishop.

Re: The NHL Thread
 
I think they go with Bishop. If they're already at the stage where they can talk to him about an extension, it's close.

If they can get Stamkos for that $8.5 million to stay and it means shipping Bishop off for picks and players I'm in favor of the move.

Honestly, fucking ecstatic with the Shaw trade. Hell of a return. Ryan Hartman should slot right in and do 90% of what Shaw did but with a little more skill and power than pure grit and scrapiness.

Will always and forever have a soft spot for Andrew Shaw, though. That little pest brought some special moments and had a hell of a personality along with it. Hope he gets paid, he deserves it after what he sacrificed for Chicago. Never forget "I LOVE SHIN PADS!" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wk7eU0wSpew
