Carolina says no Lindholm is worth more than a 4th liner and a second.
Dallas trade does not make sense, not sure how a 1st can be pick #40 when there are 31 teams. I would think just a straight sway Strome for Janmark would be even if Dallas wanted to do that.
Carolina might like that trade but cant see them wanting to take on Sekera for free basically. As you are trading the 1st for Faulk and then throwing in Sekera so they would probably need more.
Not sure who Safin is so I cannot say much about the AA trade but think he will get at least 3 mil from someone in an offer sheet maybe, Janmark and Lindholm will get paid more as well.

Carolina says no to both

I’m a canes fan. I’m not against giving up Faulk but you need more then that. Sekera doesn’t want to go back to Carolina and Carolina don’t want seekers back. As for the Lindholm trade. You need more as well. A fourth liner and a second for a Fifth overall pick isn’t fair value. Lindholm can be an elite player some games. Others he goes missing but when he’s own he’s unstoppable. IMO Carolina says no to both. Just one guys opinion though. Well thought out and the pieces you want would be available.

Thank you for the feedback. I figure Edmonton would probably have to give up a little more but tossing in a first round pick might be enough, possible a younger man in Caleb Jones as well. Oilers imo need to be able to recoup picks in this deal as well. I agree Lindholm has value but based on the comments from Tom Dundon, he seems content on his team looking for more "grit".. trust me as an Oilers fan that shouldn't mean a sacrifice of skill. If you substitute Victor Rask instead of Lindholm is that more reasonable?

Thank you for your feedback, and I corrected that mistake, I meant the second round (pick 40), just forgot to change the initial part, it's corrected. IMO faulk based on his underlying numbers is not good 5 on 5, you are essentially trading for a number 4-5 dman that has offensive upside (has only produced over 40 points once in his career.. Yes he has a great shot, but he is not good defensively and that alone doesn't make him worth a top 10 pick if there is no salary retained the other direction.
Fair point on Lindholm, I understand Carolina under Tom Dundon appears to be looking to get "tougher", so i figure they are looking for kassian type players, Lindholm is probably overshooting things, but is Victor Rask available?

I agree that someone will probably offer AA an offer sheet and Detroit is kind of hooped against the cap if I am not mistaken.. Hopefully that team is Edmonton.

Rask isn't as skilled as Lindholm for a start and Lindholm is more versatile. Lindholm can play any attacking position. Rask is skilled enough to be a 2C but with rask's grit and ability and will to win the pucks back in the corners or to lay a guy out, I don't think dundon would want to move him unless they were getting a deal that was robbing the other. So theoretically this trade could happen because Peter Chirelli is a mad man. For value it differs. Lindholm is much more valuable. I could only see Rask getting moved out if you are paying for Lindholm if that makes sense

Ah that does make sense. So what you are saying is we can expect a massive Chiarelli overpayment in the near future if a deal was to happen, buckle up. If there was a player from Carolina most likely to be traded aside from Faulk, who do you figure that might be? Skinner?

Skinner seems to be the odd one out after winning the draft lottery. Faulk Skinner and Rask are the three that had poor seasons last year but the first two have proven themselves to be better then that years prior. Slavin and Pesce might as well be joined at the hip. They are going nowhere. Hanifin isn't moving. I can't see Bean or Fleury or TvR moving. Any goaltender you want except Nedeljokovic is available. #aho Tuevo and Staal stay. Necas Zykov and the second overall pick if thats Zadina or Svechnikov, isn't moving. Williams has a NTC. But so does Skinner. McGinn and Lindholm I don't see getting moved. Maybe they move Derek Ryan at the draft. Lee Stempniak as well. Other then that I think the roster will be the same next season. Idk how they make Skinner fit but they could get a lot for him or they could make this one HELL of a team

For Edmonton I could see them trying to aquire Rowland Mckeown or Justin Faulk. Both good RHD and both very talented offensviely but Mckeown is better in his own end than Faulk. In any case if edmonton make a trade with Carolina, I'd expect a D-man going to Edmonton and Al Montoya coming back the other way
