Mickstix:
I don't have anyone in mind.. BM found Kempny, who paid off pretty well.. Does his job. Maybe he can pull another rabbit out of the hat?


edit: Burt and a pick for Jake Muzzin.  (yes, I had google help)  :snicker:

That is who I mentioned a bit ago as supposedly being on the block.  Burakovsky makes sense for LA -- he is a sniper, which they sorely need, being last in the league in scoring and their forward lines made up largely of tough grinders who could get him the puck (which he's never really had a chance to play with here.)  The problem is that Muzzin carries a $4M cap hit and is signed through next year, which may make this offseason's needed signings tough unless the salary cap really jumps.

The other issue is both Phaneuf and,as I just found out. Martinez is on the IR. Until they get back it’s unlikely they trade any D


Another target. if NYR they’d part with him, is Brendan Smith.  He has more strength, thoughness, and aggression than anyone on DCorps, probably more than several combined, and will play the woman’s rule game the Caps love to market.


He’d be about 4amd change, but long so with Bura  and change a good GM could pull it off.

Mcquaid:  everything were lacking in our DCorps, if NYR will part with him


Martinez: an upgrade in everything, if LAK would part part with him


But let's be honest, in the postsiton of need, with limited access, GMBetaMale isn't good enough to pull this off.

    I'd have no problem adding Chara

Maacoshark:
    I heard the Canucks are interested in Burakovsky. I was thinking we should ask about Edler.
