Trade rumors popping up in other places as well.

If E. Staal is available, I'd imagine that other highly valuable players would be as well.

Figured I'd add this, based on the same thing and earlier reports. 

 

 

 Darren Dreger: The asking price for Eric Staal would be enormous. The Leafs and Hurricanes have talked in the past. Would cost them a first round pick, either Tyler Bozak or Nazem Kadri and likely Jake Gardiner. Dreger thinks the Leafs would pay that.Bob McKenzie: Staal likes playing with his brother and has a no-movement clause. A trade would only happen if he wants it to happen. Sames goes for Jordan Staal and Cam Ward.

TORONTO - Eric Staal is apparently willing to waive his no-trade arrangement for a deal that would land him with the Maple Leafs.

The question is: Have the Carolina Hurricanes reached the point in which they are willing to trade their best and highest-paid player as part of both a salary dump and the beginning of a possible rebuild?

I don't see how this one doesn't get done, Staal wants it and the Leafs want it to get done. Does J. Staal gets traded as well and to which team. 

 

 

Only really other possibilities is Semin (not likely, don't think he's worth much.) Ward (high price, might be worth something though to someone.)

 

 

 

Then maybe Skinner because of injury issues...

Just adding to the fire sale rumors circling the team right now. Seen some reports that the Staals would be traded together as a packaged deal of some sort to the same team. (only a few teams able to take the cap hit) Also Andrej Sekera is likely to be moved as well.  Jeff Skinner is also highly probably to be moved if a good deal surfaces for him. Some of these rumors have been swirling for a while, this season would be a good time to sale off and build for the future with picks and talent. 

 

 

 

 

Should be an exciting season even with a bad team.

I've heard about Sekera to Philly.  It would take a massive trade for someone to acquire Skinner.  He's seen by most as our biggest young talent.

No lie, last year I traded both Staals together to Colorado in NHL 13. Got Duchene and Stastny in return. It was much better for the cap :P

      They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
