That's a horrible offer for Hamilton especially when RHD are at a premium right now.

Treveling laughs at Lou and informs him he should probably retire to an old folks home.

Didn't expect that the overpaid dud Hamilton would require more than that for a trade, especially since Calgary needs a #2 center pretty bad and gets another Dman outta the deal.

Ok I gethcha. RHD needed back then.
Trade tweak.?

Roman Polak
Nazem Kadri

for
Douggie
Shinkarek

Another great post K99. Keep up the great work man. Absolutely killing it with these.

The one with Polak is much worse!

Hamilton is still a younger developing d-man that should improve. His major detriment is his contract. He is worth more than the Tor package now.

You really are clueless are you? You say Calgary needs a #2C eh? What do you think Sam Bennett is/ will be? They also have Backlund, who is more of a 3rd liner but could jump up and play 2C if needed.

That last offer is probably 10x worse than the other one. I am guessing that they would want someone like Nylander in return for Dougie tbh.

K99 what are you taking about Calgary desperately needing a 2nd line center? They have Bennet, he is young and very capable of playing on the second line. Also Hamilton is not an overpaid dud. He is still young and has the potential to be an elite defense man for years to come. Next will it be Gio for Yak?

11.) 31 Aug 2016

What BJ said. Bennett will be there this year or in the very near future. Dougie does have an expensive contract, but he put up 43 points last year and Kadri put up 45 so I'd take Dougie anyday over that package.

Also the second proposal is probably worse as Polak is a bottom pairing dman and Shinkaruk has offensive potential.

Kadri for klefbom, yak and a second.

WOW. You have a great imagination. but facts are Sam Bennett is a decent career 3rd liner grinder at best and not a 2nd liner let alone a 2nd line center. lol. Backlund is a 4th liner that fits in well with the current roster of low skill high effort 4th liners on the team. ( excluding mono and little J of course) Instead of getting mad and insulting. we welcome YOUR trade rumors if you think there is a better trade for the overpaid underachieving Hamilton that YOU think works better for both teams? Salary in is very close to Salary out for this proposal already.


Islandjet,
agreed. Fact . yes he is way overpaid for what he gave back last year, but granted is young and may improve to be closer to his salary value. I will add . Don't forget that Kadri is young too and also has the same potential to improve as Hamilton.

What do you think TO should give up with Kadri to make the trade even?

I'm just shocked that you think subbing polak into the trade for marincin somehow justifies the flames needing to add a young prospect and a pick. I don't think the first offer would fly, but the second one is so much worse. Kadri is a very useful player, still pretty young, marincin isn't terrible, but a year ago he couldn't make the oilers, that has to mean something. But Hamilton does have a decent chance of being very good. And young RHD with offensive potential is going to bring a better package or he stays put. Need a good prospect or good pick added from leafs.

K99 just stop. You are brutal and think you know hockey but you just don't. Backlund is a good 3rd liner, he had 47 points last year. He was on track to have over 40 points the year before. What are you talking about Bennett being a career 3rd line grinder? That shows you are clue less. He is 20 and is already very skilled . I predict he gets atleast 50 points next season. Do you also think Sam Reinhart. Mitch Marner, and Dylan Strome are career third line grinders too? Please just stop.

It's hard to tell if this K99 guy is trolling or actually that clueless most the time. Hoping he's not %100 of the time being serious. That would be embarrassing.

The fact you try and "state facts" already a makes me laugh a bit, but if you seriously think Bennett is only a third line player you are just digging your hole deeper and deeper. Also like I already said, this is a horrendous offer for Hamilton. I get your passionate about all your thoughts and comments but you have no clue what you're talking about.

How is Hamilton over paid? He scored 43 points as a 22 year old. K99, your hockey knowledge is brutal. Considering the Hall-Larsson trade, to get Hamilton your looking at Marner +.

Unbiased. Who from the leafs is a RHD worth 2 mill to sub for Polak then? Salary in = Salary out as a guide for the trades.


Xcing Sorry but Bennett will be most effective as a 3rd line grinder on any real contending team. He's currently promoted to the 2nd in Calgary due to no forward depth on the Calgary team. If you think otherwise then it is you that are fooled. The Flames forwards excluding Johnny and Mono are ALL 4th line hard working less skilled forwards on any contending team, that are thrust into 2nd and 3rd line duty Me thinks you better get the NHL center ice package and watch a few more Flames games there bud because your assessment on the Flame players needs a little tweaking.

yup
No I'm not trolling. Value of the players is bang on having watched almost every Flames game in the 2015/ 16 Season.
Polak's ability. Ok. maybe I'm a bit out of sync with. I put him in the deal only to make the salary dollars out = in. There might be a better RHD on the leafs to use for the trade? Trust me. when it comes to the Alberta teams. I know what I'm talking about talent wise.

Yeah after that Bennett statement I honestly think he's trolling but he's writing lengthy replays so who know. Better off ignored.

K99 I watched almost all the Flames games they are my favourite team. That being said I may be a bit bias onwards them but I try not to be. Maybe Bennett was a 3rd liner last year but he is entering his second season and if you have watched any Flames games you would know what this guy is capable of. He is extremely skilled and can most definitely play on the second line. He got 36 points in his rookie season which is respectable. Is Brouwer a 4th liner because he wasn't on St. Louis who made it to the conference finals. What about Frolik? Also the fact that you said "Me thinks" says enough. But of course you are always right and everyone else on the site is wrong. Forget Treliving that should hire you. Your first trade:
Gio, Hamilton, Brodie, Monny, and Johnny for Yak and a 7th.

K99 nobody lol just because they need RHD, doesn't mean if you offer your best RHD (even if sadly it's Roman polak) they have to take it lol I'm fine with people throwing ideas out and then others have their input and build off a starting point but you can't build a gem off shit. The whole trade needs to start again but I can only assume the next one is t going to be any better.

Xcing.
Makes sense as to why you have the mindset you do. The world colored red glasses are on all the time over rating the 4th liners the team has. Good thing you're not a GM with those evaluations.
