Thread: in the hot seat
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Carolina sends you back with nothing. A first and a cap dump for Skinner? You're looking at a 1st 3rs 5th + for Skinner and more for the cap dump</div></div>

Both Lucic and Skinner are both coming off of underwhelming years. I think there's a possibility for a one for one there... Milan is still good for 50pts and he brings something that the canes need<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MG1986</b></div><div>While I think it's a relatively fair deal, your STL and EDM trade, I don't see their captain going anywhere. As for your Carolina deal, I just don't see them willing to take on Lucic's contract unless they take a contract back, one that is not Jeff Skinner, who is a UFA after this season. That Lucic contract is going to be awfully tough to move. It will certainly be interesting to see what type of deal of Edmonton can pull off and how many additional assets they need to include to get it done. A 2019 1st round draft pick, which I would assume is protected (???), would not really benefit Carolina in the immediate future, especially if the pick gets moved to 2020 because Edmonton remains in the top 10 in 2019.</div></div>

I suppose protect it, but, honestly, Edmonton is not the team that they were on paper last year. I would be shocked if they missed the playoffs again, even without significant trades. Just need Talbot to bounce back...
