Why would anybody want Foresberg, the guy has a f***ed ankle he is injury prone and hes getting paid 5 mill so in a salary cap era your going to give up alot for a guy who is an unrestriced free agent at the end of the season, and he the most injury prone player in hockey today.

| I would take Anson Carter. Chances are, if I am a GM and my team is in the playoff race, I have a pretty good core of players. A guy like Anson Carter is a perfect compliment player, he can play the PP and PK, he isn't prone to injuries, and he is a team guy. The price is right at about $900k for the rest of the season. And, he's a UFA at the end of the season so I have to obligation at the end of the year. The other thing is I could probably get him from Columbus for a couple of lower round draft picks, especially if they are out of the playoffs. That’s the smart move in my opinion as he can play any forward position and gives you depth into your 2nd and or 3rd lines. |

I hate to say it, but I voted for a Leaf. I'd pick Sundin, he's the only decent player on Toronto. As GM of the Sabres I dunno who I'd give up  I'm sure I could find someone though :)
I would've picked Forsberg if he weren't so prone to injury. |

I have to say i agree with u Mik, if the right deal was there i would take Sudin in a second, even though he plays for the dreaded leafs

Yep, definatly Carter. He has been horrible for Columbus and would go cheap. The deal would look something like this:
To TOR:
Anson Carter
To CLB:
Andy Wozniewski
3rd round pick in 2007 DRAFT
5th round pick in 2007 DRAFT

| I think that would be too much for Toronto to give up, unless they were planning on keeping Carter after this season. |

I dont think ppl realize that carter is UFA after this season, so u dont want to give up to much for a guy that can walk at the end of the year

obviously anyone would want to pick up foresberg
hes one of the best players in the nhl and you dont even have to pay his full 5 mill salary
you only pay the rest of it after you get him which would be around 1.4 1.5 mill
even though he always gets injured hes be worth the 1.4 1.5 mill to have him for your playoff run
i dont see how anyone could pass on him |

| Forsberg was on a postage stamp in Sweden back in his better days. Yes he's still good today but the Flyers are last in the league and it seems he's always out with an injury. |

| As GM of Colorado i would have to pick to go with Brad Stuart. The Avs offence seems to be reliable on most nights (leading with calgary for most goals in the tight northwest) and Peter Budaj is on his game lately between the pipes, a nice solid defender like Stuart would round them out nicely. I think i would offer something to the sound of Ossi Vaananen(has struggled to maintain a spot in the line-up this season) and Brad May and maybe a draft pick for Stuart. Seems reasonable to me. |

I think out of the group Stuart is the least likley to be traded, because is been made public that he wants to play the market since hes UFA at the end of the year

| Well, seeibg as I would be the GM of toronto and can't say Sundin I say guerin. Hes got that offensive flair and throw hiim with 2 other guys that have a scoring touch and I bet he would put up big numbers. |

| I pick Morrison. He isn;'t a high salary player but he can get the job done, pp pk and even strength. He's got speed talent and never gets injured |

I think he makes about $3.5 million a year. About $116,000 per point so far. Which I guess is a lot better than Naslund's $150,000 per point this year. |

I think that fellow was just comparing production.
Anyway, I think the fact that Stuart is a UFA at the end of the year makes him more likely to get traded. It happens every year. I the team is out of the playoffs and the guys is a UFA, they will trade him for draft pick. Then, the go after him in the summer. Look at Carolina last year picking up Weight from St. Louis and Recchi from Pittsburgh. Where are they playing now??? |

so if a defensive defenceman is making $5,000,000 and gets 5 points, the GM is only paying him based on his point total and he ends the year with 5 points, does the GM then say im paying u $1,000,000 per point at the end of the year

| No, I think the idea is that IN GENERAL, players who get more points get paid more. I don't think any player is paid strictly on a performance-basis. |

I would. for 5 million you better be getting more than 5 points! besides you guys weren't talking aobut d-men, you were talking about Morrison and naslund. and d-men get paid by the point too, a defensive minded dman who also gets points = more money. sorry to burst your bubble.  |
