Kari Lehtonen, 2 2nd round picks (ours and Habs), and Havelid.
The Thrashers score more than enough goals to win games, they need to improve their team defense and their PK.
A better start would be to find someone willing to take Chris Thorburn, Eric Perrin, Eric Boulton, and Jim Slater off our hands.....I would also try to trade Exelby, and re-sign Havelid.
Your not going to get the return your hoping for if you package all those pieces together. Maybe someone like Spezza could come back but I doubt it, as that still leave Ottawa with lots of holes.
Your best bet is to split this package up for some smaller deals. I would like the Blues to go after Lehtonen though.
Biron is UFA, you can just let him walk. Lupul is locked up for 4 years, and Kovalchuk-White-Lupul would be pretty sweet. Jones makes the same as Havelid and is signed through next year. He would help your power play unit. How much do you expect Lehtonen would expect as an RFA?
ummm the Flames acquired the Habs 2nd rounder in this coming draft as part of the Tanguay trade (and was traded to LA in the Cammalleri deal)... could the Habs second possibly be a 2010 pick?

lehts will probably want 3.75-4 million but it has been reported that atlanta is trying to resign him and seeing as he is an RFA it would make no sense for it to be a sign and trade so he is most likely off of the tradeblock at the moment
We'd have to send one of our goalies, wouldn't we?
no
atlanta has lehtonen(RFA) hedbergh(signed through next year) and pavelec(not entirely sure but i think he is signed through 2011) and doesn't have to get a goalie back in any goalie deal
that so i don't expect any of our goalies to move anytime soon

But they could take Biron for two months if Lehtonen is out the door. Pavelec can stay down, and they could roll with Biron and Hedberg for this season, and then it would only Hedberg and Pavelec would be signed for 2009-10.

yes, but the thrashers don't NEED a goalie back. they can take one but they don't have to

Because that was a 1st that was traded for Tanguay, not a 2nd.

Actually it was Tanguay and a 2008 5th (i think) to Montreal for their 1st in '08 and 2nd in '09... then the Flames traded their 1st in '08 and Montreal's 2nd in '09 to LA for Cammalleri and a 2008 2nd (which happened to be Calgary's from teh Conroy trade)
20-Jun-08 - Calgary Flames traded Alex Tanguay and a 5th round selection in 2008 to the Montreal Canadiens for a 1st round selection in 2008 and a 2nd round selection in 2009.

No offence, but I am not quite sure Jones would even play if Thrashers PP, which is one of the few things in the team that actually works pretty well. They've got Kovy and Hainsey playing pretty much the entire two minutes, even Enström gets very little ice time. And they've got Bogosian too. If Flyers want to dump salary, Oystrich for Jones might work. Oystrich has played OK, he is kinda of like Kukkonen but better skater and has some upside. I expect Atlanta to keep him, but they might be interested in swap for someone with bit more experience.

Yea, I'm sure what they want is Antropov plus a few bad contracts in exchange for a young goalie and some good draft picks. That makes all the sense in the world for a rebuilding team
