<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>grodziQ</b></div><div>he may be gone like Julien Gauthier</div></div>

Disagree, unless Kuemper or Korpisalo is a realistic trade. Even so, I don't expect it until the deadline. Carolina just seems like a really patient organization for the most part. They didn't pull Fleury out of the AHL until his game was absolutely perfect, it seems like. Looks like they're doing the exact same thing with Bean.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>A_Habs_fan</b></div><div>Great deal. He’ll do well with the defence core in Carolina and will get a raise after this deal</div></div>

Our organization really does slowly trickle young players in, particularly defensemen, but when they're in, they're very good. Would not be surprised if Bean is given one more AHL season before getting in for good next season!

Thread: Carolina Hurricanes signed Haydn Fleury (2 Years / $1,300,000 AAV)

Great deal for Haydn. Came into his own as a legitimate middle-pairing guy this year. Hopefully Foegele is next. Any savings relative to expectation either should be used for one of Vatanen/Granlund/Hoffman on a short-term deal (preferably Vatanen, who did really well this post-season) or to buy out UFA years for Foegele.

How about not. The smart move in this environment is to add salary, not to subtract it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsFan9</b></div><div>What happened to this guy? He was doing great in Chicago</div></div>

He actually had a career-best AHL season in Charlotte last year. It's the reason why Carolina QOed him. He could be our #7 this year if Jake Bean still isn't ready (I doubt it, but who knows).

Bean's going to be the #7 this year with us. That's pretty much in the bag. He likely makes it full-time when Fleury or Skjei is selected in the Expansion Draft (likely the former).

Gust was really good in Charlotte last year as an AHL signing. Good for him to get an actual two-way deal this year.

Again, our brains aren't fully developed at 18. I've done and said a lot of regretful stuff at that age. We grow from it. None of TDA's bad behavior is recent.

There's no evidence out there that he's a bad teammate now, though. When he was, ahem, 18...yeah. Humans aren't static creatures, though. They can learn.

Having different political views than you doesn't make people like TDA bad people. You guys are really going down that trap, aren't you...we all grow from when we were 18. He probably has, too.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>Not when Winnipeg is giving up Laine and Heinola. There would need to be something else for taking on Johnson and not filling team needs for Winnipeg.</div></div>

Cirelli and Sergachev have a combined market value, IMO, of about 3 firsts. Laine and Heinola, to me, are worth about 2 firsts combined. To me, that extra first and Little's LTIRetired contract are plenty compensation for Johnson.

Cirelli and Sergachev IS hefty compensation. Both make Winnipeg better right now! And the Jets would LOVE Cirelli. He'd be their first true long-term 1/2C option since Scheifele.

It doesn't have to be Johnson. Could be Killorn or Gourde, too.

They don't have to. Make it a 1-year rental, and decide between keeping Stamkos or Laine next year.

Petro is a much more proven defenseman than Dougie, AND it's an 8-year term. Track record will matter here.

Florida's prior regime royally misused Wally when they got him at the deadline (why in the world do you play a good 4C on the wing?!), and the arbitration fears from his services in Carolina led to his non-tender by their new GM. Glad that he has a spot to show his talents.

I would say that the Isles are going to be worse off without Toews, and they probably will, but again...with Barry Trotz...they'll be alright.

Reimer's hit is $3.4M...and he isn't a backup but a platoon guy. That's fair with the year he had.

Highly misleading cap hit. Reimer's only due $800K in real salary because his bonus has been paid already.

Thread: Trades Galore

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stan_Bowman</b></div><div>Why are we giving up a prospect with similar upside and high second to get him?</div></div>

Because I don't think that the pick will be that high with Strome/Dach/Cat/Boqvist continuing to develop, and he would come with a 5 year extension. Cost-controlled, solid two-way forwards are what your club needs. This isn't some redundant forward for prospects and picks like what some users on our page are trying to do, this is a very good 24-year-old that would be difficult for us to trade.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stan_Bowman</b></div><div>Chicago says no.</div></div>

Apparently Bowman wants another middle-six forward. I think Foegele would look great in a Hawks uniform, he's quite young (only 24), and had a good season last year both on 5-on-5 and PK. This isn't a "junk for your gold" type-of-trade, if that's what your afraid of.
