That, surprisingly, nearly fits. I think the 1st round pick is a little much but it does give CJB the NHL ready forwards they are looking for. It's a bit much on the salary side for Van but Nash with the Sedins would be pretty sick.
Sadly, I don't think Bobby Lou is waiving his NTC to go to the hockey and cultural mecca of Columbus, Ohio.
Daniel Alfredsson is the MVP of the universe. All hail the Ottawa Senators!!!!! |

Not to mention the fact that Vancouver isn't on Nash's "wish list".... |

Yup but this is a trade that would probably make both teams better, and yeah Nash with the Sedins would be sick!
Anybody with ability can play in the big leagues. But to be able to trick people year in and year out the way I did, I think that was a much greater feat.

I think Nash would maybe amend his wish list if it brings him to a legit cup contender espcially once they add him and Doan

I guess maybe if the Canucks got Doan and Nash figured that was enough, but not long ago he didn't have them on his list? So, is Doan enough to change his mind or is there a reason he chose all American teams? |

| I like this trade too - I have long felt that a straight up Luongo-for-Nash would be perfect for both sides (needs wise and cap space wise), although neither one seems to want to go to the other. The other bits are OK as well, although I think the trade favours CBJ. I think its too early to give up on Kassian, and the first round draft is too much. I'm also not sure what VAN will do with Mason after this season, he's RFA and 2.9M in cap space... |

I'd be okay with Kassian OR the 1st rounder, but not both for Nash, though i'm not that keen on the Canucks taking on that salary in the first place so i was actually pleased to hear that they weren't one of his preferred landing spots! |

The thing that gets me on this one is Steve mason, a guy I thought a couple years ago was developing into a star but then dropped off the face of the earth recently. In the end he could develop into the best player of this trade.

I actually like this trade proposal, though I do think you need to lose the draft pick, or perhaps Kassian. I don't think Nash will have a problem accepting the move to Vancouver, but I'm not so sure Luongo would agree on Columbus.

Pretty good proposal. If the jackets were getting cody hodgeson instead of zach kassian, then it might actually meet howsen"s ridiculous asking price, oh well. We'll just have to what till the rangers give CBJ: dubinsky, del zotto, kreider and a 1st rounder for Nash or the much more likely; Nash tells howsen he's sick of waiting around and then they'll lower they're asking price.
I just want something to happen though, the market has been dead since parise and suter landed in MInny, and that's when it was supposed to heat up.. whatever, the hockey pundits were wrong again....
