I really think Kane will be traded this offseason, so this is a realistic option. What do you think the return would be?

Going to be honest no clue but I wouldn’t mind trading a 2nd or 3rd +wahlstrom

We aren't ever going to trade for Kane. He's not a locker room player. Isle's really favor community type players.

And he has facial hair...

We all know Lou doesn't like that

Pageau?

boston would ask for a first.

Kane really does seem like he's changed his life around, ie he's very involved with the local community and charities. But it seems like he's worn out his welcome in the locker room.

I would do either, preferably the Wahlstrom one.

The only reason I wouldn't is strictly because I'd want the sure thing. Pageau gives McLeod the opportunity to remain on Draisaitl's left flank permanently and finds Edmonton their best RHC since Strome/Letestu. Having that #3C locked down with a cheap solution at #2LW is a wonderful thing to have.

Wahlstrom would come in as a cheap bottom-six winger, already competing with (assuming they stick around) Brown, Lavoie, Perry, and likely a free agent option to contend for middle-six work. Maybe he does well up the lineup? But it comes at the cost of Carrick et al being the best option we have for a RHC and likely means that both top-six wings alongside Draisaitl are in need of names to play those roles. The free agent pool this year is poor.

Ultimately the draft pick in return with Wahlstrom isn't doing a lot for me either. Having a healthy prospect pool is a good thing yes, but again, it's Mission Stanley until Connor and Leon aren't Oilers any longer.

Robertson is yours for a 2025 2nd

What does his next contract look like?

Like 1.25-1.5 mill for multiple years

Would probably move the 2nd and put him with horvat and barzal

Sabres aren’t looking to trade Krebs
Especially not after we just traded Mittelstadt

Just a player I think the islanders would look at if we move jgp/nelson(highly unlikely)

U can look into him, but it’s pretty unlikely we’d move him

That's why the price seems so high... And I think he retains RFA status for 3 years

The penguins are ready to trade. What are you offering.
Bag of pucks you say.
SOLD!!!!!!!!!!

1 mil retain for jgp and Rick dipietro

I can't justify retaining on that for 4 years. Especially for no return.
In 4 years this team will be selling assets for rebuild, and it will need those slots to move guys out for assets and make sure they get 1OA picks.
If it was a 2 year retention I'd be all for it. But I foresee picking top 5 in the next 3 years.
