Trade makes sense for both sides, pretty fair deal in my opinion. I can't help but feel that Winnipeg might go after Stone instead of Duchene though.

I agree, but I still have optimism for keeping Stone. Should know in the next couple days. If we're trading him, yeah, ashville offers he best package for him. I'd say this package (swap him for duchene obviously) plus a 2nd.

I saw something on Twitter like they wanted all three of the pending FAs (Stone, Dzingel and Duchene), could you imagine the haul for that lmao.

There would be nothing but scorched earth as a farm team in Winnipeg if they went after all three. Not to mention the cap trouble all three would cause presently and in the future. Good lord those line combinations though. A TBL and WPG final would be madness.

Prob not Dzingle as Ehlers is pretty much a internal tdl deal...the other two I can see(it will hurt in the years to come tho)

Hmmm... did you mean if WPG went after Duchene, Dzingel and Stone that Ehlers would be included in the deal that brought them over or are you saying WPG would leave Dzingel alone and trade Ehlers down the line?

To WPG -> Duchene, Dzingel, Harpur and Stone

To OTT -> Ehlers, Vesalainen/Niku/Green/Stanely, Kulikov and *insert random contract* + 1st in 2019 / conditional 2nd in 2019?

No, No, No...OTT keeps Dzingel as we will be getting Ehlers back soon

Understood! My fault. That's good news for WPG though!
