With Bailey and Grabner coming back, somthings gotta give...are we really prepared to play Grabner or Bailey on the 4th line? and are they prepared to except those roles?
I would love for Snow to trade for a legit 1st line LW for Johnny and Kyle
Dont know if TOR would do it, but what about somthing around Strome and JVR?
I'd hold off on making any trade like that until I see what Bailey can do in that spot. I've been waiting to see him there for a while now. Thought it would happen last year after the Olympic break, but Johnny went down. Would love to see it this year once he comes back.
If it works, we'll be set, and we can move Grabner for a future or two. Would honestly rather just keep Martin than stick Grabs on the 4th line.
Don't know if this is a topic worthy of it's own thread, but I read a tweet where Eklund is now saying there might be a trade between Winnipeg and the Isles for Evander Kane, he is giving it an E4. I'd assume someone like Lee or Strome would have to be one of the key prospects going back.Then Bailey or Grabner, as well as a top dman prospect as well. That would be my guess as to what would possibly get the highly doubtful trade done. I think Friedman was the one who tweeted it.
Kane could make more sense this year. We appear to be actual contenders + he's young enough to fit in long-term + we have the pieces to get him. Would still rather wait and see if we could fill that spot from within, but if it doesn't work out I'd consider taking a flier. Will probably be expensive though.
