Thread: EK65

I have no idea what the trade would be. I am almost to the point I just want it done now though. These NHL GMs have procrastinated for far too long with the trade market at this point.

Thread: Roster construction more similar to Vegas

Expecting Cal Foote to hold a NHL roster slot on a contending team is like taking a Ford from Sacramento to New York.

It <em>might </em> get you there, but it’ll probably break down in Nebraska.

Thread: Flaming Cs

Penguins decline at this point. Had they not signed Graves I could've seen it.

The only way they'd trade for Hanifin now would be if they had to ship out Pettersson in a Karlsson deal (which I don't believe either of those happen).

I think the Karlsson trades have hit their expiration date lol.

Thread: Canucks

Pettersson is the best LD on PIT. Dubas would counter with more than Allvin would likely want to give up. Garland and Rathbone are both luxuries to PIT. Pettersson is a necessity in their lineup with no comparable replacement.

Thread: Trading Down Rumor

The Pens probably have two or three guys they really love that they feel have a realistic shot of being available at 14. If all of those guys are off the board, I can see them trading down. Wouldn’t happen until they’re on the clock, of course.

Thread: Taking the cheese

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Haymaker26</b></div><div>Honestly, I don't like the Pens deal.
I detest the idea of using the 14th overall pick on cap dumping a player(s). I think we would get a lot more value out of trading it for an impact player or just picking someone ourselves.
Granlund's buyout is really easy to deal with and I think the only reason it hasn't happened yet is Dubas wants to see if he can unload Granny for a more reasonable cost than this.
The list of available options to replace Petry at 2nd pairing RD is insanely slim. Dumba, Mayfield, maybe Klingberg are the only players that caliber. I'd rather just keep Petry over the hope that we'll win the bidding war for one of them.</div></div>

I respect what you're saying but to be fair you do have a guy running things who makes trades just like this.

Thread: D and F

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>math731</b></div><div>We could always buy Carter out (promise him before the trade), then he could sign with whoever he wants. Anderson would fit nicely with PIT and seems to be the kind of guy Dubas would target.</div></div>

I probably should have prefaced this by first saying I'm a Pens fan haha.

The issues with Carter though are 1) he still has to waive - which I don't see him doing for MTL and 2) Buying him out saves no money.

As far as Anderson I don't want that terrible contract anywhere near this team - with all due respect haha. I'd rather bite the bullet with Carter playing one season as 4th line/13th forward than pay heavily for Anderson at 4x5.5mil

Thread: Suter Granlund Mantha and Hart

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Haymaker26</b></div><div>Fair enough. Any idea why Labanc would be in the doghouse? He had a pretty poor '21-'22, but has otherwise looked like a pretty solid two-way middle six guy.</div></div>

He was injured most of 21-22. He’s a super talented player but both Boughner and Quinn relegated him to 4th line minutes which is weird/dumb to most sharks fans. He’s good on a power play. Dude had a ton of personal distractions last year and admirably played through it. I like Kevin but think a change of scenery would work wonders for his career.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Haymaker26</b></div><div>The Pens accept. Honestly not sure why San Jose would.</div></div>

Labanc has been in the doghouse for about 3 years and a 2nd round pick is useful in a rebuild, granlund isnt a bother as were not competing for a couple years anyway.

Thread: More realistic

Don’t think these goalies fix our issues. Rather keep Jarry/DeSmith at that rate. Switch Barbashev and Steel. Can’t be using Rust and Rakell on 3rd line.

Thread: Creative moves

What on gods green earth is this Guentzel trade? Why are people so headstrong to trade him? Especially in this deal lol. People said Jake had a bad year last year & he still scored more goals and more points than Ehlers has scored in his entire career. Stop the madness.

Give him an 8x8 contract and be done with it.

Thread: Trade pieces to get a piece

I think Pittsburgh turns the first one down. The others should be no from our perspective. I will continue to say we have no reason to trade for Dubois and the trade with Buffalo doesn’t help either team.

Thread: saros gets freedrevamped 3rd line

No thanks on Suter and Nyquist. Hard pass on those guys. That Bertuzzi offer gets outbid as well.

I’d love Saros, but the chances of him getting moved are slim to none, especially with how well Nashville’s young guys played down the stretch this year. They could be in for a relatively quick retool.

Carter isn’t waiving his NTC and we shouldn’t give up that much just to move him anyways. He only has one year left and we’re going to have to eat it.

Thread: Youth with Guentzel on the way out

Can we please stop with the Petry to Detroit trades, furthermore he has value, we don't pay for him with the 14th overall. No need for Tarasanko, Nylander will be a fine fit on the second line. And I don't know my feelings about the Calgary trade.
