Thread: Hmmmm

Leafs fans really still salty they protected Justin Holl over Jared McCann

Thread: Hmmmm

Seattle declines. McCann is on record that he will not waive his NTC to go to Toronto. Still bitter about them trading for him and exposing in the expansion draft.

Thread: 2024-2025 Flyers

Given their depth at wing, Philly would probably be politely offered a 7th. Seattle's not giving up a first for 34yo winger.

Thread: Hawks fine tuning

Seattle would decline that. Borgen is the Kraken's second pairing RHD and much more valuable to them than Blackwell, who would be the 12th forward at best, and an AHL winger.

Thread: fulfilling the TJ and Willy rumours

Seattle should stay the course. Giving up the years of control they have over Tolvanen/Wright, plus their LD2/PK1 in Oleksiak, for a pair of rentals is rushing something that isn't quite there. I don't think the value is terrible, I just think that it makes more sense for the Kraken to continue building depth throughout the organization instead of going all-in in their 3rd season of existence.

Also, I feel like Winnipeg will move on from Stanley for much, much less than that. And if you're just looking for a big 6th/7th D type, why not sign Patrik Nemeth or Nathan Beaulieu from UFA instead of spending assets for a basically fungible player?

I said he doesn't have to go to seattle, brodie is still worth a lot. maybe not 2 picks but he can definitely get a second out of him.

Really well thought out.

I know you said any team and I'm sure Oshie's family would love to see him in play for the Kraken, but I don't see how it fits on the roster there as it's their deepest position.

Thread: Why Not

Feels like wasted resources. Sign Sprong, or trade for Yamamoto but don't do both. Preferably do neither. You'll either get Sprong back for less as a UFA or you start giving the farm some chances for that 4th line role.

At 3M just bring Soucy back, younger and plays a more defensive style that DH is looking for.

Why because Calgary is not trading their 1C for a winger, especially one that's just as much a rental

More a blindfolded dart throwing thing, if we can move him at half, great! Otherwise, we buy him out. Can do both under this scenario

Thread: PLD plus Karlsson

Seattle might be interested in Edmundson as a veteran stopgap to replace Soucy until Ryker Evans is ready, but certainly not at the price of a first or second round pick. If that's what Montreal would want there are cheaper and arguably better alternatives available for the Kraken to pursue. Edmundson's a solid defensive defenseman, but he's also injury-prone and only a year away from free agency; I think the Habs are looking at a mid-round pick at best in return for him.

Thread: Only way it works

I think that would be a doable extension for Hellebuyck. I think he'll find the market just won't support the salary he wants. Unless Pittsburgh gets in there and does something desperate.

Thread: Reeling in a Giant Hani-finned Squid

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Quillanrocks</b></div><div>Always enjoy your builds . . . the thought and detail you put into them. Nicely done here, again, and look forward to the next one. Hanifin would be a solid add, though at the expense of Oleksiak would be disappointing.

Now . . . Curious what Flames fans feel sabout the deal. (?) I know they want to add on RW, but is there any hesitancy to trade within the division? and for a RW who has struggled with consistency his entire career and is somewhat one-dimensional at times. (?)</div></div>

To your point here, I don't think the value is off by much but I don't think the Flames would look at a guy like Sprong as they have Dube, Mangiapane, Pelletier, Coronato, Coleman, who all either do or should be putting up similar production next season. The Flames have enough of what Sprong already brings. If they're moving Hanifin I think it will be in a deal that's worked around a more sure thing forward or futures I don't think they're in a spot to take a chance on a guy who hasn't consistently produced throughout his career.

Thread: Seattle-Carolina Blockbuster

Interesting blockbuster trade idea. There's a lot of moving parts involved, but purely based on value this seems reasonable. However, I ultimately don't think Seattle would do it. I think they would have interest in upgrading their defense, so pursuing Pesce makes sense on some level. However, I can't see the Kraken giving up McCann to do so. Trading their leading scorer like that would downgrade the offense such that it would cancel out the benefits of adding Pesce. I believe Seattle is more likely to pursue defensive upgrades that don't involve subtracting significant pieces from the current roster.

Thread: Realistic Oilers

1.) Keep Foegele.
2.) Seattle has no space for Yamo even if it might be a nice "home-state, feel good" story. They're loaded on the Ws. Most likely scenario seems to be trending towards a buyout.
3.) CHI wouldn't have interest in Ceci and certainly wouldn't pay a 2nd for him. If you want to keep a Ceci trade within the domain of realism that exists on CF, then Ceci to ANA for a 4th typically goes over well with Ducks fans. Some DET fans are open to Ceci, but others are vehemently opposed.
4.) In what world does it make sense to pay to trade Desharnais away? He's on a below league minimum contract; even if you think he's a burden and a waste of a roster spot, just send him to the AHL.

Thread: Bye Bye Pesce

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Koskinen_The_Great</b></div><div>He's a RHD that makes little money. There is always a market for that especially in a year with a barren free agent class and a big need at RHD with Seattle unless they sign Soucy to a higher AAV. A bunch of Kraken fans have already said it's more than reasonable. KrakBirds23 KrakenTheCode </div></div>

After seeing some of the projections for UFA contracts this morning. Soucy for 2x2.75 may be out there which I think the Kraken jump on. It's in their cap realm for the next two years but stone walls some of the prospects. I still think Soucy is a high demand FA but I also think Seattle will be fine if they re-sign the RFA's (Dunn and Borgen).

Thread: Because its the canucks

The Kraken aren't going to consider that trade proposal. They have plenty of depth on both wings already and Garland isn't an upgrade on what they already have. He'd be stuck in a bottom six role in Seattle. It makes no sense for the Kraken to trade away Borgen, who is their second pairing RHD, along with a second round pick for an unnecessary winger who wouldn't improve the team in any meaningful way.
