Willander and Hughes for Ferraro and Rutta, who says no???
Willander is a perfect player for the Sharks to target. The issue is a trade only really works with us if the Canucks are interested in picks or prospects. Unfortunately I think they are more likely to trade Willander in a package to desperately get a 2C. But if they are open to a more futures package I would be willing to deal something like the Dallas pick + Bystedt
Is Willander not one of the few if not last valuable trade chip they have? If they trade him they probably want to get their top6 center Rutherford is apparently on record for saying, maybe not as a centerpiece but in a package even. I don't see the Canucks doing a favor for a division rival, if they did the price would be higher. And I don't think Musty+Chernyshov is what they're looking for or even the caliber of trade they're looking for.
I wonder what San Jose would have to give the Islanders to swap picks?
So he’s a rich man’s Eric Pohlkamp? Same draft class and similar defensive partners. Pohlkamp had 11 more points this year and I don’t think Willander’s floor is as good as that old scouting report. Sharks need someone further along and a more sure thing if they’re going to trade a decent asset. Ok topic though
I would do Halts + Dallas pick. I was hoping for a bigger jump from Halts this year and it didn't happen as much as I hoped. We need the D more than we need a 2nd PP 3rd line winger.
JD, if Schaefer goes to the NYI, do you think SJ is definitely taking Misa ?
Really like this Episode, JD. I'm currently high on the Sharks targeting K'Andre Miller. I think there's opportunity for the Sharks and Rangers to be trading partners.
Willander and 15th pick for pick no 2.
The Canucks are consistently inconsistent in all aspects so you never really know, but they do seem to be in the here and now type of position, although they keep trading or letting good players walk and don't replace them with equal talent, so maybe they are willing to do that here too!
I think cagnoni sounds like the type of partner willander has thrived with in hutson, hutson, and pellikka
[van] willander + 15th overall pick > [sjs] 2nd overall pick
