They don't really have anything exciting left to offer. If he goes there, I'd expect something like Myers and Alnefelt, perhaps a pick.
It would mostly be to get "something" for him, with the added benefit of clearing up some space on the blue line for next season.
Of course there's always the possibility of a Hughes hand-picked prospect or a 3-way for something we actually desire.



I can't remember if they actually played together, did they?

Why is everyone not getting the returns they should. Is our value meter off?

It’s almost like the fans actually don’t know as much as we think we do

Well 2 of his like 4 career goals are against the hurricanes, so that should be fun

But when compared **** to other stuff it isn’t making sense

Supply and demand. The demand has dropped significantly with so many teams making big moves early.
Seller prices have to come down to adjust to the decrease in demand.

What’s TB giving up? Their mascot and a bag of peanuts?

Last week was the seller's market.

Now it's the buyers one.

Probably the fastest change of pace I've seen.

Because as much as we fans have an opinion of a player's value, supply and demand + desperation mixed with "intangibles" create discrepancies

Duke, Schmidt and if Yzerman is willing to be patient 2026 1st

PITT - GMan? OR are they Jarry-De-Smith'd?

McJ going for the next-50!!

Reminder it’s still Wednesday 8pm

As the buyers buy, there are less of them. The fewer there are, the lower the prices?

Or - the price of cap space has gone up because there are less people willing to take it/there is less of it as it has been spread around?

Or the currency is spent?

The lightning have 0 first rounders for 3 years and 1 second in 3 years.

The leafs have 2 firsts over 3 years, but also traded 2, they have no seconds over 3 years.

New Jersey doesn’t have a first for 2 years. (Meier condition)

Boston doesn’t have a 1 or 2 this year, or a second the next 2 years

Florida has 0 firsts the next 3 years, they’re also missing a second

Ottawa has spent their first, second, third this year

The islanders spent their first this year

It’s nutty really.

Then there’s the Sabres and penguins. Why I predicted them to buy today. Fomo is real.






Idk something like that maybe.

for some reason Nuge doesn't have a "A" on his jersey tonight, no idea why

Not the best first impression for McCabe. Early penalty leading to McDavid goal.

These Wilson trades are so awful

We will pay for anyone to take Hextall. Name the price to rid us of this monstrosity.

The next deadline = College FA...

** Who/whom are some of the top college free agents to be considered for NHL playoff rosters; anyone?


Related - what is the playoff roster size or limit?

Lol you're right. Mixed Lars up w/Plecky.

There is no playoff roster. Any contract of the 50 each team is allotted.

We thought 2023 picks would be sold a premium, and prospects sold at discount. Turns out opposite is true.

Not one top-50 prospect has moved

Over a dozen top-64 picks have moved (even more in 2024, 2025)

McJ-asus says: HOLD MY BEER to Gretzky/Ovi milestone(s) by the time we get to 2038!!

Surprising given the "perceived depth" of the next draft class/picks!
But as you say - 2024/25 picks are up for grabs...

Just need Dorion to get a rental 3C and we good (Bjugstad , Pius Suter , Bonino) all good options. Ideally Backlund or Henrique but can’t afford them with another year left
