We shouldn't pay to get rid of Kulak, just get a mid-pick from some team.

JJ Peterka was drafted 34th overall, they are not giving him up with a 3rd for a rental bottom six player

We aren't giving up a 1st for an unproven prospect like Gunler, we could have just traded up for him if we wanted him that bad.

habs say no to the rangers trade and the Carolina trade and Buffalo says no Peterka was a second so he’ll get value for about a second and Armia isn’t worth that much

Once either Suzuki or Kotkaniemi turns into a legit 1st Line center I can see this team being pretty good. Also, it's pretty funny to see Shea Weber and P.K. Subban on the same team.

Why does any team want Subban at 4.5m. Habs might need cap 21/22 with the new contracts to Gallagher and Petry

1. My thinking with Kulak was on his own I dont know if he gets Pajuniemi. If he does great or even gets Pajuniemi + mid pick would be nice but IDK.

2. I would consider a 1 for 1 with Armia resigned maybe we add the 3rd as well. I had to move money out and Armia seemed like a player the Sabres might be interested in.

3. I don't mind giving up next year's 1st for the risk vs reward of Gunler. Imagine in 2 years a line of Gunler-Kotkaniemi-Caufield.

Look at the long term outlook. If we use Tatar as a rental this year we have 15.3 mil cap space next year. If we leave Chiarot and PK unprotected Seattle likely takes one of them freeing up an additional 3.5-4.5 Mil, giving us 18.8-19.8 Mil cap. We let Tatar walk and move Taffoli or Gunler to 2LW (Taffoli is my 1st choice). Resign Danault at 5.5 x 7 years, KK at 3.5 x 3 years, Lehkonen at 2.75 x 5 years Perry again at 700 k x 1 year and Mete at 1.0 x 3 years for a total of 13.45 Mil leaving approximately 5-6 Mil left to resign Suzuki and Romanov the following year.

Noel Gunler just got dumped by Lulea. Why is he getting more value than a 34th pick and a player with 26 goals in Liiga with no character issues?

Who does he bet at out for that spot? Buch, Kreider, Lafreniere, Panarin, Kakko or Kravstov? I guess maybe Kravstov then we could trade for him instead.

Kreider. He's gone somehow. We have to make room for Pajuniemi. This offer isn't bad considering he's just a prospect but I've watched him intensively and believe he's got great potential.

Fair enough but If the Rangers are contenders over the next 3 years as I suspect they will be. I think they would keep Kreider for his combined toughness and scoring abilities. I was not trying to under value Pajuniemi I think he will be a great player but the problem is N.Y. already has 6 great top 6 wingers ahead of him.

I didn't hear about Gunler until just now and figured the Canes would want a 1st back for their most recent 1st round pick I would be willing to change that to a 2nd

I don't see why they'd give up on him this fast. They could've took the other studs available at #41.

For sure. I just think Kreider will not age with grace. We all know how bruising power forwards regress faster than anyone.

Absolutely they could have but given his attitùde issues as you put it. They might not want to go forward with him either IDK. Also I figured the Canes will need some cap space and because McGinn is sort of a cap dump but not truly a cap dump adding Gunler for a couple high picks might balance out the deal.

If they wanted cap space they could dump Gardiner. Can't see them giving up on Gunler this early regardless of his poor work ethic. Unrealistic imo.

That's fine we don't even need that trade, it was more of a nice to add but not necessary move lol. I reverted the deal.
