If NSH was optimistic enough about their playoff chances to be a buyer, they'd want to hold onto Trenin.

Fair enough. What do you think you'd place instead of Trenin then in terms of futures if buying?

Down bad huh?

Rangers easily offer a 2nd for Henrique

The rangers also require 3 million dollars in retention. The devils do not.

There's cap to spend, why not use it

Woefully bad evaluation of Adam Henrique's value, with or without retention.

Adam Henrique has a cap hit of 5.8 million dollars. If there were 2 years of term instead of 1 it would be considered a cap dump

Duck fans were fine with a 2nd and 4th for Henrique at 50% retention

Or rangers put chytil and Kakko on LTIR until playoffs

Maybe if Henrique could score a goal or two against us.

(He scored three. Ducks decline).

Deal. (assuming pens sell)

Yes. 2nd for the 3 mill in retention, so 4th for unretained henrique.

If Kakko and Chytil are out till playoffs go ahead. But Chytil has started skating again. He won't be out for 5 more months

Concussions are the hardest thing to predict. He could be good to go tomorrow or in a month or a year or never play again

Minnesota declines as they're not trading Gus until Wallstedt is settled in to the NHL

That’s why you’re getting another goalie in Lankinen.

Yeah. Which means using him as LTIR is a bad idea as he could come back at any time and then you’d be forced to find a way under the cap

No thank you.

Wasted no time huh Gibb? 🤣

Huh? That whole sequence with CHI makes no sense. CHI sends a 3rd to NJD for nothing and then you use that same pick to buy Dickinson... And you said something about retention. Why would we be paying anyone for retention in the first place? There is no reason for that. I'm confused.

Regardless, a 3rd for Dicky without retentions seems to be the consensus "fair value". In my opinion, I'd rather see if he wants to extend with CHI than take a 3rd for him. But that is just semantics.

Chi is a placeholder for any team. Any team who wants to pay us to retain money. Just used Chi as a placeholder bc there's another trade with them I was already putting in

OH! Ok. Gotcha. That makes a lot more sense.

yeah, I looked into Clarke and he's having a better AHL season than anyone in WBS lol, so plug him on the 1st line and put him in the "hat to draw from when we need a call up"...

but the offer is pretty fair, well done @dgibb10

I have no idea if Pettersson is on the table in real life or if he’s on NJDs list of targets, but he’d be a perfect fit back alongside Marino again, so I want him BAD

as of now, he's not... like he's literally the most important D-man to PIT's success as crazy as that sounds, but if we are out of it at the TDL and Dubas decides we are not going for it again next season, then he'll be moved... if not then it's a conversation at next season's TDL when we are out of it again... next year is I think the last possible season we try to go for it...

No i 100% believe you he’s a stud

No chance Preds do this. We don't want Toffoli. We really like Trenin and Lankinen. And we definitely aren't giving up that first with those guys included.
