                            Another piece like who? We cannot afford to trade any more picks


                            If you added Micheal Ferland to the deal, I'd strongly consider it.


                            What about Smith + Valimaki + Stone for Rinne + Hudon?

                            I have zero interest in Stone, my defense is already stacked. If you want Hudon as well, I’d need Ferland and Adam Fox

                            Ferland is not available ATM as we are weak on the Right Side

                            Besides Ferland who would we have to add to Smith + Valimaki for Rinne ?

                            I couldnt see giving up much more TBH Valimaki was just drafted in the 1st round and Smith isnt that much of a downgrade from Rinne.

                            If I add Hudon and you add Ferland, you still have the same amount of RW. Balances there. Hudon has more value, so could I get Adam Fox as well in the deal? It balances out what you said

                            But I wanna touch him

                            Ok I probably will stop bothering you about him, probably


                            Lmao the only way I move him is if I'm upgrading on him.


                            At center and all around player, barbashev would be an upgrade. As a scoring winger kunin has the edge. That's why I'd add(a Bortuzzo). But if it's pulock I'd need something coming back(pick).

                            In terms of potential (what I'm going for), Kunin has the clear advantage

                            After Lindholm, I'm flexible with what the return is. Basically anything but another NHL defenseman fits the bill for me. What works best for you?

                            Lindholm and Beauchemin?

                            lol. He said "anything but an NHL d-man" not "anything, but and NHL d-man".

                            So, not a defenseman, and I'd still need more. Josi is a Norris caliber defenseman on one of the best value contracts in the NHL, so he'll cost a pretty penny.

                            Absolutely not. I watch Orlov every game, and he’s not the guy I’m looking for

                            I'd need either Carlson or Niskanen, a first round pick, and then some

                            Does anyone from Detroit interest you in a Fiala trade? Admittedly it's a pretty sad list, but I could try to work something around Green, Nyquist, Eakin, or Bjugstad...if it takes someone like Reinhart/Zacha I'd rather not, but just wanted to see what may fit.

                            A guy like Nyquist would usually fit the bill here, but I'm really not a fan of him in particular. I find him quite overrated, just my opinion. Not sure if there's anything to be worked out here if it's not Reinhart or Zacha. Thanks for the inquiry though

                            Hey Krakowitz, r u interested in any depth forwards? I have lots of them to choose from. I would be interested in a 5th or 6th round pick depending on how many people you take.

                            I just took a look at your team, and there isn't a guy I really like for my team. Thanks for the inquiry though
