Islanders say no thanks, Canes might entertain the option depending on what Hronek's next contract demands are (and same goes for Necas).

Thread: canes FA

Buffalo isn't trading Tuch unless it's an extreme overpay, he'll likely wear an A or potentially the C next year and is an important leader for the team.

Thread: Markstrom

Cory Schneider was 27 when he was traded, and posted a .927, .929, and .937 save percentages the three years before he was traded.
Markstrom is 34 if he is traded this offseason, and has had .892, .905, and .922 save percentages the past three years.
I don't see the comp at all?

Perhaps a better comp would be Marc-Andre Fleury to the Wild
Flower was 36 when he was traded. He had posted .905, .908, and .928 save percentages the three years prior. The return was a conditional second that become a first if Minnesota made the conference finals and Fleury had 4 wins in the first two rounds.

Or Cam Talbot to Ottawa for Filip Gustavvson
Talbot was 34 at the time of the trade and had recorded .911, .915, and .919 save percentages the previous three years. Gustavvson was a recent second round draft pick. I don't know team's prospect pools well enough to give a comparable player, but let's assume it's a second.

The market rate for good, aging goalies seems to be right around a second. Not a top 10 pick or a team's best prospect.

You can probably get more for Necas

San Jose and Minnesota decline.

Thread: Utah Mammoth

Mammoth is one of the better names for the new team I think - this would be a mammoth steal by Carolina.

I could see Necas for that package and still think the Canes win the trade.

Thread: This years Kevin Fiala

Necas could be moved to make room for Guentzel, although they can still afford the two of them with a weaker blue line. I still have my doubts that Guentzel will end up signing in Carolina - Tulsky et al have a valuation and max term they are going to offer, and Guentzel can get more on the open market, particularly in terms of contract length.

Jarvis is an arbitration ineligible RFA, so his contract will be dependent on what other signings/moves are made. If need be he can get a bridge deal at a lower AAV, but I can almost guarantee he won't be moved.

Thread: New LOOK

What has Bertuzzi done this year to earn a 30 million dollar contract? That seems like a mistake the moment it's signed. In a similar vein, why would Domi - who I would argue has been almost as good as Bertuzzi - sign a 10 million dollar contract for 5 years? He could almost certainly get a similar amount on a much shorter deal in free agency.

Thread: TDL pt deux

The Islanders would not trade Dobson and Barzal for a center who would not resign with them after trading their two best skaters.

That offer probably would have landed Guentzel, but I was under the impression that Podz was not on the table to be traded. Add on that Bunting has been better this year than Kuzmenko and is signed both cheaper and for longer. Guaranteed first is better than conditional though.

Thread: KK and Zegras

It's a bad deal for Montreal obviously, but if Carolina moves Kotkaniemi it will be for cap relief, so taking back a contract that is more expensive - even for the better player - doesn't make sense. This is especially true for a LHD - Matheson would be 3rd on the depth chart behind Slavin and Orlov.

Thread: Realistic Maybe

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MyTeamsSuck</b></div><div>Yall need goaltending pretty damn badly. Marky at 34 is still a top 20 goalie in the league. Rn he has some trust issues with management and needs a change of scenery. Say he’s worth a second on his own, throw retention on and he’s valued at a late first. Throw in VAN first and pair that with the fact that NJ doesn’t need the pick, and that trade gets done, no?</div></div>

Markstrom in his age 33 and 34 seasons has been right around .900 save percentage - that would put him in the 30-40 range. Given the history of goalies I'm not sure Markstrom would:
1) Be worth a top ten pick even if he was a top 20 goalie in the league the past two seasons
2) Get any better for his age 35 and 36 seasons.

So why would New Jersey pay the top ten pick now?

Thread: Moritz Seider Trade Comps

Ironically, I think rather than K'Andre Miller as the Dougie comp for the first trade, I would say you could use Adam Fox.

Thread: Rebuild with 1 - Using Cap Space as an Asset

The cost against the cap for a Kotkaniemi buyout is 835k per year - less than a league minimum player. If the ask is more than a 4th round pick to dump him - which consensus seems like it is - they are better served to buy him out.

Thread: Radical NYI

Not that the value is wrong or anything, but I assume the Canes just keep Drury instead of the second, particularly if his contract ask comes in under 2M.

Thread: Them the shakes

I'm not sure that Carolina can fit both Guentzel and Marner, and they would probably rather try to resign Guentzel. That said, why are you signing Necas to a 1 year deal? He takes that and walks to FA where he will be paid more next summer. I also doubt Marner waives his NMC.

Florida declines your offer for Lundell.

I know you hate KK with a passion but the Semin signing is easily the worst for the Canes - he was a worse player than KK and his contract was nearly 11% of the cap versus Kotkaniemi's 6%.

To add on to what other fans have said, I don't think Pesce signs for 5x5 in Ottawa. He was reportedly offered that contract in Carolina and turned it down.

Canes decline - Jarvis is not available. Kings probably match that offer sheet as well.
