Convincing Buff to Play For a Cup Contender

Created by: Hockyluv21
Team: 2019-20 Carolina Hurricanes
Initial Creation Date: Dec. 8, 2019
Published: Dec. 9, 2019
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Note: this proposal is a HUGE longshot. It basically assumes that Buff is willing to stop his leave of absence in order to go to a top cup contender for two years before he hangs it up.

Hurricanes make an unexpected push to acquire Dustin Byfuglien, further leveraging their 2-year cap window to build the single best defense in hockey. Winnipeg, in exchange for Buff and Roslovic, acquire an entire pairing's worth of defensemen and extend both of them to reasonable contracts.

More extension nonsenseshakes head . Waddell tells two members of his team, you're not wanted, we want to trade you, but you can only be traded if an extension is in place. Hurry up and sign and get out of Carolina. But if you can't reach an agreement with Jets....you're welcome to stay with the Canes on our Cup run.
Jets need Roslovic, maybe even at centre a lot more than Gauthier.

The whole point is that Winnipeg needs an entire pairing's worth of defensemen if they actually want the playoffs to be in their picture. Their offense and Hellebuyck are the two things that are keeping them above water. I personally expect, BTW, that Carolina extends Edmundson and trades TVR. This trade is only on the off-chance that Buff actually wants to play in Carolina.

Not sure Buff is even healthy at the moment. I know his ankle was messed up. Also I think he will need lots of time to get in shape if rumors are true.

I will say that I do like Neal Pionk a lot, that was a great pickup by Chevy considering how little leverage he had. Other than him and Morrissey, though, it's still a bit of a hot mess.

We're not trading Roslovic and certainly not for that package of meh.
