The Atlanta Thrashers are currently seeking an affordable Left Winger to play on their top line with Derek Roy and Johnathon Cheechoo.
We are willing to part with draft picks, prospects and maybe a player or two, depending on the deal.
This player has to be affordable, under 30, have scoring prowess, and not have a name that ends in OV.
I do not plan to break the bank, but I am prepared to pay fair compensation for a player who can score, and has plenty of upside.
Contact me soon!

Just because you have nobody that ANYBODY wants, doesn't mean you have to take your issues out on my budding (struggling) franchise. In Atlanta, we have standards. I know you can't say that in St. Louis, but in Atlanta, we're building something special.

YOur "Standards" That sounds like another way for prejugdiced.... I mean everyone knows I love American players but that doesn't mean I'm prejugdiced against any Euros or Canadians. If you're a good, hard nose hockey player I don't care where you come from.
Don't have anyone? Lee Stempniak would fit your bill nicely, problem is people don't trade players like him for draft picks.... And as far as no one wanting any of my guys... I can't tell you how many offers I've gotten over the past year for Liles, Blake, STempniak, Zajac (more recently), Suglobov.....

Hey I'm not prejudice. I have preference in the way I'm wanting to build a contender. And that's home grown North American talent. We play the game the way it should be played, and we're getting there.

Dave has not intention of trading... he is just messing around... we all know Dealin Dave is Dead...
I can see why the Blues organization would be offended by the coment of last names ending with "OV". half their roster names end in "OV".. Not that their is anything wrong with that... New Jersey like St. Louis organization are not a Prejudice organization..

I was wondering how long it would take before "Carol" struck again!
Dealing Dave is looking at making a big splash here. Problem is, he doesn't have a dance partner right now. Can't dance without a partner!

The Problem is you want a dance partner who will drive you to the dance, be designated driver, pay your entrance to the dance, buy you drinks at the dance and carry your drunk a$$ home after the dance..
What I am is saying put some good talent on the trade block and lets dance... ;D
what kind of response do you want when you come out with: "I want a 1st line scoring winger, who is young and cheap, must be North American and I will offer you draft picks or maybe prospects".......
If someone has a 1st line winger who is young and a scorer and is cheap.... why would the want to trade him?
Tell us what prospect in your system you are willing to trade lets get R Done....

Carol, this is the kind of response I expect from you. Notice the other heavy-weights around the league are keeping silent. Almost everyone on Atlanta can be traded. It's just a matter of what the return is. The only two prospects who are untouchable are Staal and Cogliano. The rest of them are negotiable. As you know from previous dealings with me, I am a fair GM to trade with. Everyone I've dealt with, with the exception of Spencer, knows that I ask and pay fair value. Now, just because you're looking to fleece me, say Brad Stuart for a bag of broken hockey sticks and a picture of your fat, down syndromed mother, and I won't go for it, doesn't mean I deal unfairly.
You, my friend, need to deal a little more fairly!

Dave is willing to pay. Just not Carol's rates! And here you go again, padding the Forum stats again, with number 1202.

Well there is a reason no one wants to trade with you.. They know you will try to penny pinch as much as possible to get the one sided deal. I have no issues trading when I want to....
I will make you an offer you cant refuse: If you trade with me I will send you a ton of Salmon so your mom can finish bulking up before she has to hibernate for the winter. Deal or No Deal?

It's fishing season up here. There's already enough salmon to go around. Besides, it would never get here, after your mom, sister and gramma got through with feasting first.

And I was going to offer Prospal or Huselius. I suppose Dave doesn't want either of those players. Discrimination is alive and well in Western Canada and you oughta be ashamed of yourself!
