From what i read Columbus us asking for 2 NHL quality players with upside, or younger up and comming players and 2 grade A prospects or high draft picks. The opnly deal i can possibly see from the Pens is

2 quality, Kennedy Desprse (ok Desprse isn't all proven but i think its safe to see he is NHL quality. Kennedy, it the only younger forward with psosible upside)
2 prospects (Morrow and a first rounder) or (Harrington and Roupp) Roupp is the guy from the Michelek trade.

Now this i think is what they want, but i still feel other teams have more to offer. And honestly i don't know if this is worth Nash.

I think this deal would fly for Ryan, but again can another team offer more?? And again i do question if Ryan is worth all this.

If we do complete a trade, we're trading out a 30 to 40 goal scorer. Defense is probably the strongest part of our team if we look at it today. So we're looking to get some NHL forwards back first and foremost."

That means there is no way in hell we could ever acquire Nash.

I think if you take out Desprse and throw in Lovejoy you might have a deal....

Agreed, Kenndy is the only plug and play guy we got who is not untouchable. Dupuis and Cooke are to old they wouldn't want them. We got no other guys unless you make it a 3 way deal, it just gets to hard and Ryan is almost just as good as Nash with a much less cap hit. Not sure what Anaheim wants but we would have a much easier time dealing with them if they would like a Grade A defence prospect or hopefully Martin.

What's funny is that if we had the pieces Columbus wants for Nash, no one would even entertain the trade to begin with. They want a couple good, young forwards with lots of upside... exactly what we want. :lol:

That's why the whole ordeal is so insane. Nash is good, but is he really good enough to give up a number of guys whose production will probably top his? No!

Columbus wouldn't do it. We wouldn't think of it. What an awful idea.

I think that Columbus could be trying to get a little 3-way action going to expand the list of teams he could be traded too - for instance you could see Nash go to Edmonton for a couple of their young forwards... then they flip him to us for a couple of our D. That would make sense for everyone involved, if Pittsburgh was interested in Nash.

Nash has a NMC he's not going to Edmonton (if it's a rare "get him and flip him" deal). Nor would "a couple of our D" offset the cost for them that they gave up to get Nash...the latter point is most important...

Nash could waive the NMC if they explained to hm what was happening. And of course it would depend on what they got from Edmonton and what Edmonton wanted from us. But if the interest was there for all 3 teams I would think it would be possible.

Nope. But I read it.

It makes sense. Everyone knows Edmonton is looking for young defenseman and Columbus is looking for young forwards. Maybe something like that could work, not just for us but for another team that Nash would be traded to.

Despres and Tangradi? I thought it was just us overrating Despres, but apparently he's interesting to other teams. Guess other have seen what Pens managed to make out of Goligoski and Letang. With so many great young d-men in the organization I don't think Shero can say no to this offer unless he was planning on giving him a lot of playing time this year.
