I don’t see how it couldn’t be. My biggest fear is that they’re in on Horvat. Would be great but this team is still 2 top 6 players away after that.

Could be a trade coming.....I think the most exciting thing is seeing what the market is going to look like. With so many playoff bound teams cap strapped it will be very interesting to see if prices for rentals/trades are down from years past or if they continue to rise.

As much as I'd love Horvat, he'd just be a rental unless we clear significant cap space this offseason. The more I think about it the more I'd prefer Dumba is moved for picks/prospects with an NHL defenseman coming back. That would allow us to either acquire a rental if Guerin is convinced this team deserves one, give us ammo to acquire a forward in the offseason, or just keep stocking up the prospect pool.

BG did this with Zucker. He cashed in early when teams still had all their assets. That’s how you maximize the value on a guy like Dumba, I think he would actually get less if he moves closer to the deadline.

Beat reported Joe Smith. Evason confirmed no changes other than goalies.

Pens decline. Also, I saw Russo reporting that the coaching was scratching him for his recent play and that it wasn't good enough.

Not twice in a row. Yesterday, sure. But not again. There’s a trade coming.

Interesting. I saw Dregs saying that the Horvat chatter was really picking up and a few teams are trying to make moves early. Will be interesting to see what Dumba gets in return.

Two in a row is weird - the first scratch after WASH was a little sus, but also kinda whatever. But running the same lineup after losing and giving up 5? Has to be something in the works.

A performance based scratch would bring down his value, it has to be a trade. They’re not that dumb 😂

I don’t think they trade him unless the return is quite large. But it’s the Horvat stuff that gets me. He makes sense for the Wild right now but it would be a long term mistake for the team. If they can get multiple top 40 picks in this years draft, they could set themselves up like the Kings or the Devils in the coming years. I would much rather have that than a couple months of Horvat.

I would bet that the messaging was done for Matt’s sake. It’s also something BG would do, I respect the way he handles people more every day.

Wonder if it’s Dumba + 1st and 2nd for Schenn and Horvat type trade with both guys extended

You know I was just looking at twitter and someone commented that a reason why Dumba is being scratched is because there is a trade but they are holding off on trading him till after the dad/guest trip the team is doing in FLA...

I’m sorry, but they cannot fit Horvat without moving Brods or Spurg. Horvat would be a pure rental. Also, not having any 1sts this year would be a massive blunder for the org.

I think they’re moving Greenway regardless. Probably before the deadline. He doesn’t allow us the space to really get another contract but it does give us a buffer to ensure we can keep Gus and Addison.

Any chance for the delay being because they're having trouble negotiating the extension with . . . Andrei Kuzmenko?

Naaah, Dumba to a non-contender doesn't make sense, so I don't think that you have to worry about Horvat.

I’m worried they get a 1st and flip it for Horvat. But I really wonder how much VAN wants to move on from Boeser. He’s the guy I’m most interested in on the Nucks.

Not to change the subject but Dorion was in attendance for the LA game last night. You guys have RD , and the Sens need RD without spending more than 3 mill on one for next year

I wonder if he was looking at Addison. I know you guys are high on Pinto but that’s my left field framework.
