Diddle Andrew Ladd. The guy's Canadian and he would refuse to play in a Canadian market? Diddle him. He wouldn't want to play in Ottawa either if that's the case.

Wait, Dash I'm pretty sure you read that wrong:

LeBrun cautions not to read into this as meaning Ladd, a restricted free agent, doesn’t want to play in Winnipeg if that’s where the team ends up, but rather the two sides simply haven’t yet been able to agree on a new contract.

Right, call a guy who's 20 and who's never had a fair chance "Kovalev".

Giving up a 3rd for a guy like him is an easy decision.

He'd look great next to Spezza.

If he is so good... why do they want to trade him?

Because they are impatient? Because it's Columbus?

how can people say the Sharks are choking? They are SUPPOSED to lose this series.

Filatov also wants to play in the NHL and Columbus risks losing him for nothing if he leaves for the KHL.

How about a 2nd? Too little?

Nashville 1st + piece (not too big a piece though). Perfect player for Ottawa.

not too long ago i would of jumped on Filatov. if he can agree to play a full year in the AHL and follow the program then i`ll give him a shot. but i don`t want him jumping ships after a few months back to the KHL.

why would you care if all you gave up was a third round pick?

well i would rather have a pick that might turn out then a guy who'll never see the NHL. I know the kid wants to be a star but will he ever be? besides i don't think a 3rd will cut it. he's no longuer worth a 1st but a 2nd maybe. to some.

i'm not saying we should pass up, i'm just saying he needs much more evaluation and be interviewed before making that decision.
Aslo i doubts BM picks up a russian with issues.

Seems steep for Ladd who seems (to me at least) to be a "big fish in a small pond" in Atlanta. I doubt he replicates that kind of success elsewhere unless he's given all the big minutes. It's only this last season in Atlanta that he's had top minutes. He has historically been a 3rd line type talent.

I'd keep the pick. It seems likely that you'd get at least that with a mid first, and have the benefit of not having to pay him Ladd dollars for a few years.

Ladd with Spezza = good times IMO. Perhaps 25 goals, maybe even 30. I really, really like him a lot - from his attitude all the way to the way he plays the game. I understand what you mean by wanting to keep the pick though.

I think I agree. I'm not completely sold on Ladd yet and I really want to see what our scouts can do with the 6 in 65.

Ladd would be a good second line center IMO but i'm not willing to part with a 1st rounder. maybe another deal that doesn't see us losing a top prospect and a high pick? a 2nd + weircoch? maybe too low eh?

Remember how a lot of us were hoping Ottawa would sign Glencross (who just scored his 15th against the Sens tonight)?

He would have and still would be a good top 6 forward for Ottawa.

Yeah, he would have been a nice addition, but he chose to stay.
