I think you've heard wrong. He was asked for his trade list, but that happens a lot around this time of the year.
That one just happened to become public
I'm not convinced he's "available" just yet.
7:03
Though I guess you could call anyone that right now.
His value definitely isn't UP because of that situation, but 30+ goals covers up a lot of blemishes.

Are the Kings looking to trade Doughty to help the rebuild now or at the draft ???
Gavin Lee
7:04
Don't think a Doughty trade will happen for several years, if ever.

Why would the Islanders sell? You said you’d sell if you were their GM. What gives? They’re in first place and a lock to make the playoffs.
Gavin Lee
7:05
They also have very valuable expiring assets that are surely going to be overpaid if they extend them.
I wouldn't do a tear down, but I think I would move out some select pieces.
Joe

Good point re: Islanders. But how often are teams actually in position to win like this? No guarantees they get this goaltending again. Isles fans have waited a long time. Time to go for it!
Gavin Lee
7:07
I wouldn't expect fans to want anything different! They've done such a great job this season turning that program around.
I just think that there might be a longer vision of success if you cash in a bit.

Where do you think Eric Staal ends up post-deadline?
Gavin Lee
7:08
Just for fun I'm going to say Calgary.
(No inside info here)
Pawtucket

Do the Canucks resign Edler or let him walk?
Gavin Lee
7:09
They are really trying to work something out
Joe
7:10
Not to monopolize this convo, but what would a guy like Eberle even bring back? He’s on a down year; I see no way he or Brock Nelson would bring back a first round pick, and Lee is the captain- can’t imagine they’re letting a second captain walk again. Thanks for the chat!
Gavin Lee
7:10
Not monopolizing, it's a good subject.
I don't think Lee is going anywhere, that's for sure.
7:11
It doesn't need to be a first round pick to be valuable.
Is the next few months of Eberle more valuable than say, a 2nd and lottery ticket defense prospect?
I'm not sure.
Cardinals
7:13
blues - buyers AND sellers? Have some expiring pieces and maybe an upgrade on the blueline
Gavin Lee
7:13
Their expiring assets aren't super valuable, so I'm not sure if it would be worth rocking the boat.

What does Buffalo do about Skinner?
Gavin Lee
7:14
Try to sign him.
You paid very little to get him, and he is a great fit.
7:15
Alright folks, that's where I'll shut it down for tonight.
BUT
We have a special chat happening on Monday morning.
Come join me and chat about all the moves from the weekend (hopefully) and those still to come!
It will be extra long.
7:16
Good luck to all of your favorite teams.
