idk about that... we know he wants out, but howson can't just take a deal on him. nash is the face of the franchise and the franchise can't afford a rebuild with no star. if they don't get a star for him the whole club could fall under. (forbes ranked them #28 in profitability) if anything nash is going to play like crap or violate his terms in every way possible to bait a move.
or less likely - - he's going to request to be taken off the market. i'm sure the guy doesn't like any of this.
...you guys are killing me with that mess avatar. we lost lol.
I still predict Nash dont get moved no one is paying that price w that cap hit
This is what I'm feeling. I don't think he gets moved. Howson wants (what he thinks is reciprocal value), and no interested team is willing to give too much with his atrocious cap hit.
Dubinsky, Thomas, McIlrath and the NYR 1st in 2012
AT THE SAME TIME
Offer for Ryan and the rights to Schultz
Staal, AA, Fogarty, a 2nd rounder in 2012 and conditional NYR 2nd rounder in 2013 (conditioning being Schultz signs)
We add 3.7 million in salary.
We lose some assets in terms of prospects and 1st & 2nd rounders, but we still remain a very young team and retain Miller, get Schultz and a 2nd in 2012.

Again, pipe dream, but so what.
That sounds like one of those great NHL 12 trades some of us' do in our basement lol. I mean, I would not be extremely opposed to that, but that would never happen , at least tomorrow it wont. But I love the way your thinking lol.
My ideal trade package is Dubinsky, Miller, Thomas, 2012 1st. With Ryan and possibly BOTH Kane's available I'd just tell Howson like it is. Something along the lines of "You're not the only show in town anymore Tex, take it or leave it. I got Anaheim on hold [/exhale cigar smoke]."
I could visualize it clearly. God I miss those stogies; gave em up once they outlawed smoking in bars.
why is everyone so confident that nash will be traded by tomorrow? Just looked at the comp for first time all day, busy day at work
nash's agent is in a meeting with howson now, howson is having a press conference at 5, tomorrow is the draft. so with those 3 reasons people would be surprised if nash isnt gone by the end of tomorrow
Dont want Nash on the Flyers but at least we wont have to hear about this ******** anymore.
Really dont understand the flyers. They are all kinds of stupid. They need defense in the worst way. Didnt they learn anything from the Pens series...guess not
If Nash was actually to hurt their team and make them worse going into next season, than the Flyers getting him would be exactly what we want. That is of course if it really does make the team who trades for him worse.
I'm sure though that they could just sign some D from free agency. Its not like the best D available after Suter is Andy Sutton. There are players to be had.

No, of course not. Sutton re-signed. Now it's Staios.

Depends on what they give up, if a trade for Nash guts the Flyers I will be happy.
