Thread: (NSH/PIT) - Granlund for 2023 2nd RD pick

They take full salary? That’s surprising.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Doshee</b></div><div>Risky deal for LA, if Korpisalo can't get his game back, this might be awful, the conditions make it more stomachable tho
Good for Columbus</div></div>

He already got his game back. That’s why this trade was possible. His hip is alright now and he’s been solid behind a really bad defense.

Thread: (CHI/ARI/NYR) - Kane, Zech for 5th for Welinski, 2nd, 4th

Honestly i thought they’d have to give up someone from their active roster.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>Not sure what Carolinas thoughts are here, Puljujaevi doesn't have any chance at reclaiming his potential languishing in a bottom 6 role and unless he comes out in a big way for Carolina, he's going to have a hard time moving past 3RW unless I'm reading the roster wrong.</div></div>

There’s the Aho factor.

Thread: Vancouver Canucks signed J.T. Miller (7 Years / $8,000,000 AAV)

I don’t think he got paid based last season alone. His overall career stats are close to Filip Forsberg. Also he’s been very consistent with the Canucks and sometimes you just need the right team to reach the potential that is expected from a 1 st round pick.

Thread: Edmonton Oilers signed Kailer Yamamoto (2 Years / $3,100,000 AAV)

Can’t they run a full roster without trading anyone? I think they can with Klefbom and Smith on LTIR.

Thread: Edmonton Oilers signed Jesse Puljujärvi (1 Year / $3,000,000 AAV)

Before Jan 29 2022 Puljujärvi scored 24 points in 36 games averaging 17:22 ice time and after he scored 11 points in 29 games averaging 14:43 time on ice. Given his entire 2022 was pretty bad points wise you still cannot ignore that date.

Don’t bet against Zito

Comparable DeBrusk making more money with very similar production.

Thread: Vancouver Canucks signed Brock Boeser (3 Years / $6,650,000 AAV)

He scores in every third game so not a bad signing.

Thread: (FLA/MTL) - Smilanic, 1st, 4th for Chiarot

So far Zito hasn’t made any mistakes so it will be interesting to see If he’ll prove everyone wrong.

Money’s where it should have been on many of the recent defensemen signings.

Thread: Minnesota Wild signed Kirill Kaprizov (5 Years / $9,000,000 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CSStrowbridge</b></div><div>Way too much for a player with only 55 games under his belt. Furthermore, it takes him to UFA status, so the Wild have no leverage to keep him after this.</div></div>
He’s 24 so they got 2 ufa years from him. Or one.. I’m not sure what you mean by leverage but it’s not exactly the same as with Aho or Matthews.

Thread: (MTL/ARI) - 2022 conditional 1st round pick and 2024 2nd round pick for Dvorak

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KSIxSKULLS</b></div><div>Robbed is bold because Kotkaniemi played 3rd line last year and still had a - WAR with a 47.9% faceoff wins. The only positive about Kotkaniemi was that he was a 3rd overall pick, but that means nothing now. Canes are the only true loser from yesterday's transactions.</div></div>

Robbed meaning they got a player they didn’t have rights for. Not robbed as winning a trade hands down.

Thread: (MTL/ARI) - 2022 conditional 1st round pick and 2024 2nd round pick for Dvorak

If you look at the big picture CAR is a winner here. They matched Aho offer sheet and robbed KK from that team so I doubt anyone making that move on them anymore. They played well and thanks to their good scouting and developing they afford making a miss with KK.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Saskleaf</b></div><div>This reminds me of the Kuemper trade. It's an overpayment for a guy they desperately needed.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I'm surprised at the people who say "great AAV but too much term." Why do they think the AAV is that low? Eight years at $6.5 million per year is better than 6 years for $8,666,666, both for player and team

People seem to forget the initial reason for making long term contracts.

This is a great deal for St. Louis (as long as Parayko avoids injury). And it comes a year early!</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hockyluv21</b></div><div>Nashville's going for a rather interesting retool here. I like a lot of their recent draft picks, and they seem to be going for a mix of vets and youth as a sort of transition. If Askarov pans out as a star goaltender, it wouldn't shock me to see Nashville back as a postseason contender relatively shortly. I also like their swing on Cody Glass.</div></div>

You don’t trust Saros as a goalie for a contender?

Thread: Nashville Predators signed Eeli Tolvanen (3 Years / $1,450,000 AAV)

2 years with that low cap hit would have been good for the player. It’s almost like he doesn’t trust in himself.

Thread: Carolina Hurricanes signed Jesperi Kotkaniemi (1 Year / $6,100,035 AAV)

I simply can’t vote lol This is great for KK money wise however he doesn’t deserve all that money, not yet at least. In Aho’s case it was different as he did and does deserve it all. If KK used this as a tactic and secretly wants to stay with the Habs this is weird way showing it. I don’t see him having future there after this. Their fans are going to rip him apart unless he starts playing up to his draft status

They can always trade him so it’s not for free.
