I would love to see Hedman and Ekman-Larsson play together

To Arizona
Valtteri Filppula
Slater Koekkoek
2015 1st round pick (New York)

To Tampa Bay
Oliver Ekman-Larsson

Let me know if I'm off.

you're off

someone would need to really ooverpay to pry OEL out of arizona as he's one of the few bright spots they have.

I can see what you mean. Who do you think would have to be traded to Arizona?

i have no idea, probably a top end prospect and a 1st, probably somethign more as well. anyways, speculating on an oel trade is kind of a waste of time since he's one of the last guys Arizone would even think about moving.

@Shankar: I agree, that he won't be traded and all. But you're saying it would require a 1st and a top end prospect. 1st is there, Koekkoek is a top-end prospect. Plus Filppula, who's definitely one of the league better two way players.
So, besides that ARZ wouldn't move him, I don't think TB does that, either. Filppula is very important to the team and Koekkoek + the 1st are basically two top tier prospects.

If OEL is being moved I would expect Arizona to start with Drouin. If TB says no then a package like Tyler Johnson, Kucherov and a 1st.

Keith yandle would be traded not OEL.

@Draisaitl_94
That's where I was getting, Filppula is a great centre, the first, and Koekkoek is a top 10 draft pick in 2012. But I see what you guys mean, value isn't there.

IMO, Filppula, Koekkoek, 1st is too much value going back to ARZ from a lightning point of view.
Also, Drouin+ or Johnson, Kuch, 1st is too much.
Why would either team do that? ARZ does not want to move OEL, and they're right.
TB doesn't really need him, since TBs D has really improved, and already carries 8 NHL-caliber defensemen (Hedman, Stralman, Garrison, Carle, Gudas, Brewer, Sustr and Barberio)

And you're the guy who calls people blind and biased right lol.i agree with Shankar.good post


10.) 12 Nov 2014
OEL is the most under rated player in the NHL.

From PHO standpoint he is untouchable.


11.) 12 Nov 2014
This is one of those proposals that doesn't even warrant discussion. OEL wouldn't be traded unless it was a huge overpayment, and the package TB is offering up isn't only not enough, but they probably wouldn't offer it anyway given how well they are doing without OEL. It's a nonsensical trade. May as well discuss discuss a Crosby + Kunitz to CAR for their top 2 forward lines trade. Fun, right?

@The_dude_jets: What and whom are you even talking about?
Your comment is beyond useless under this post.


13.) 13 Nov 2014
OEL is the one guy the Coyotes won't trade, unless it's for someone elite like Crosby.
