So because his brother is a pretty good player it means he will be? His brother will make the NHL and he’ll probably stay in it for at least a couple of years, but I doubt he’ll make an impact such as a Chris Pronger does.

That Chorley chick used to be my student teacher in high school. She was actually hot back in the day but i dont find her attractuve anymore. i would sooner do Jennifer Martin then Chorley since i have seen both of them in public before.

I tend to exaggerate my trade proposals in this situation a wee bit, but you have to keep in mind we're talking about Chris Pronger who is completely proven, you know exactly what you get, and for 4 years at a 1 million dollar discount.

The Rangers have only just brought themselves back to the post season after what some would say an unexpected season, but they are rebuilding with strong Czech leadership. Those guys aren't going to be around much longer, and they've got some really solid goaltending in Lundqvist.

Pronger (or the like) was exactly what the Rangers were missing last year.

Marc Staal is unproven at the NHL level, yes, he's a Staal, and by your deductions, the 2nd crappiest of the 4, but Chris Pronger with a 4 year contract would be worth a trade, and considering people think Lowe is in Sather's pocket (which I disagree with), maybe at the end of Pronger's deal, Sather could make a move to get Staal back into the works after the Oilers developed him for 4 years or so.

Prucha is a skilled winger, no doubt, but he is tiny and succeptable to injury. Didn't he miss about 15 games with a shoulder injury last year? So his durability is a question mark

Maybe offering those 2 is more than 60% of the way there, but it's definitely not a good offer without adding more.

Staal Prucha Tyutin? Nooooooooo thats way to much. Tyutin is a proven defenseman whos already great at his young age. Prucha may not score 30 goals next year but at least 20. Hes a great finisher. Staal can go because hes not proven anything yet. Staal Immonen/ Sauer + 1st round pick and montoya is what i would give.

Prucha had 30 goals as a rookie, hes tiny but he hits and can score. Not even the old rangers would make that trade. Prucha Staal +++??? And what that + might be is a first round pick and montoya or sauer? They might as well throw every other prospect in with that trade because they are already giving away their future if they do. Even Staal immonen 1st Round pick and Montoya…. those are 3 great prospects + a first round pick.

Dude Staal and Prucha only 60% of the way there? LMFAO do you have any idea what your talking about. Staal is gonna be one of the top defensman in the league. Staal, Sauer, First round pick and Montoya should be enough to get him

Yeah, but wouldn’t Lowe find it preferable to trade Pronger to the East? Obviously, if a western team makes a substantial offer then, yeah, jump all over it, but I see the East to be less dangerous trading partners. A trade to SJ could end up coming back to bite Edmonton.

It's nice to see Kevin Lowe has his priorities straight.
