Thread: Skjei to Florida and Cates and Tippett to Carolina

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hockyluv21</b></div><div>I'll tell you why; a lot of people see a Hagel-esque situation brewing for Cates and Tippett. If the Flyers are going to stink for a long time, both may not even be in their primes when they are good again.</div></div>

That makes sense, but I still think we are keeping them.

Thread: Skjei to Florida and Cates and Tippett to Carolina

The value is fine I guess but I don’t think the flyers accept it anyway because they expect both to be a part of their core moving forward

Thread: Parlaying Pesce and Necas Into a 40 Goal Scorer

I mean I get the Kempe deal but 40 goals and signed at that cap hit for 3 more years I don't think LA moves that.

Thread: Dallas Acquires Hanifin

Hanifin for Harley doesn't really help the Stars given their current situation. Right now, Dallas has two top-4 caliber defensemen: Miro Heiskanen & Thomas Harley. They need to ADD someone like Hanifin to those two players, not necessarily swap him into the lineup in exchange for Harley.

Thread: Defense for Forward Trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hockyluv21</b></div><div>What realistically-available options are better than Lindholm? I'm guessing not that many. Coyotes have clearly stated that Keller and Schmaltz are not available.</div></div>

It's pretty slim, but Lindholm is a mediocre 2C analytically. Canes won't pay what the Flames want for him and they won't pay his extension.

These are two I wouldn't mind at the right price. Backlund is just a disgusting player

Thread: The Canes Dont Actually Need to Move Any Defensemen

running Burns on the 3rd pair looks so weird but I don't think he needs to log big minutes to be extremely impactful (like Karlsson does), so I guess this works. I would imagine DeAngelo gets 3rd pairing role

I'd target Ullmark or Hart if you are trading for a goalie. The ducks seem to be content keeping Gibson because nobody is trading the moon for him because it is no longer 2017 when he was a good goalie.</div></div>

Tell me you’ve never watched a Ducks hockey without telling me you’ve never watched Ducks hockey.

We think we'll get a 2023 or 2024 first-round draft pick for Henrique, but if you replace Ronan Seeley with Anttoni Honka, we would probably accept that package for him.

well san jose kind off did it on burns and the kings did it for carter for 2 years, so it possible. but this is not worth if for nashville to do it though.

Detroit takes that and runs, But it's sounding like 90% chance as of right now that Yzerman resigns Walman. He's been the perfect partner with Mo Seider.

Thread: Panthers Make One Deadline Move

I don't see that getting a Gavrikov trade done. The Jackets are looking for a 2023 1st for sure, which Florida just doesn't have to offer. If this were as a pure rental, it might get the deal done, but with an extension in place and other teams able to offer that 1st, it'll cost more. Probably looking at throwing in the 2024 3rd or possibly the 2023 2nd to get it done.

Not for rentals. For guys that have term, they've never had that issue. Trocheck, Skjei were both deadline pickups before Covid, Nino was about 2 months before the deadline too. They don't spend big on rentals.

Thread: Another Interesting Potential Add

Texier isn't away from North America because of the team he's on. He's not in North America because he went through tremendous loss of family and can't bring himself to be away from the people he has left. We really don't know all the details yet or even if he'll ever return to the NHL.

Thread: Granlund Might Be a Good Fit in Carolina

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hockyluv21</b></div><div>As seen recently with how close they got to acquiring Tkachuk, Canes are willing to give the 8 year contracts to guys that they truly think are worth it.

I feel he is. Sure the final 3 years could be bad but by then Canes could have a cup or two so who cares. I feel Horvat would age well into the contract anyways

But man Horvat as the Canes 2c with Patches on his LW and Necas RW would be fun to see this playoffs

Lysell and Lohrei are nice pieces, but if Horvat was willing to sign that contract, he’d be extended already

Thread: Buffalo Sabres signed Mattias Samuelsson (7 Years / $4,285,714 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>EmpressKayla</b></div><div>It's one thing to do this for a guy who played a good full season, such as Alex Tuch in 2018. It's another thing to do this for a guy who has not even played a full season.

If Samuelsson actually becomes a viable 2LD, this contract could look like a bargain. But for now, it's a needless gamble. At least they'll get the 1/3 discount on a buyout if he turns out to not be that great (see: Hodgson, Cody).</div></div>

Unless Samuelsson also has a rare disease, I think it’s safe to leave Cody Hodgson out of this particular discussion.
