(DET/WSH) - Mantha for Pánik, Vrána, 2021 1st, 2022 2nd
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>krakowitz</b></div><div>I couldn't emotionally handle coming into this thread without some time to decompress. From a pure hockey standpoint, the Caps got a better fit for Laviolette's system, cost certainty for the next three years, and someone who (I believe) was just on a 30+ goal, 70+ point pace last year. Giving up the picks isn't ideal, but I could care less about draft picks while we still have a shot to win. Ultimately, this deal made the Caps better today.
But my love for Jakub Vrana can't help but make me mad that this deal went down. My favorite non-Ovechkin player on our team is gone. I even have his jersey hanging up in my room. This is a tough one to emotionally swallow for myself and a ton of other Caps fans.</div></div>
A lot of us are scratching our heads in Detroit trying to figure out why Vrana fell out of favor in WSH. Mantha will probably put up 20-30 goals a season and 50-60 pts for the Caps. He has the potential to do so much more, but refuses to put in the effort. A lot of Wings fans were sick of watching a 6'5" pylon glide around the ice and wait for opportunities rather than creating them. When asked about the trade on the broadcast that night, Mickey Redmond deadpanned "Well Mantha had some trouble picking up his feet this year." Mantha was even benched earlier in the season because he was spending entire shifts just floating and waiting for pucks to come to him.
Vrana can skate like the wind, has a wicked shot, and can't be any worse defensively than Mantha. I could see them trading the pair 1 for 1, but giving him up along with a 1st and a 2nd is just madness to me.

Yep, no idea why would you want a 4th line center on an expiring deal who leads the league in face-off wins and who can also kill penalties

St. Louis Blues signed Jordan Binnington (6 Years / $6,000,000 AAV)
This will be an interesting deal to watch age. The AAV seems about right. But the term is probably 1-2 years too long for my taste.
My wife is originally from STL so we watch a LOT of Blues hockey. Binner isn't exactly setting the world on fire right now, but Husso probably isn't NHL starter material, so what options did they really have?
I feel like this guy will always be judged against his rookie year. Which is reasonable, but he was always going to regress from that season. I really don't think anyone reasonably expected him to keep up that pace. People also seem to love to overlook the fact thst he backstopped this team to a ring. Last I checked, that's the entire point of this exercise.
Also let's not get revisionist about Jake Allen's time with STL. The guy was frustratingly inconsistent and lost the starter job largely because he seemed like a complete head case in net. I'm glad to see he's bounced back, but St Louis was always going to move on from him.
It's amazing to see what a difference a year makes too. Last year I thought the Faulk deal looked absolutely terrible. Now he looks like a centerpiece of that D core, even with that ridiculous mustache...

I’ve already cooled down from this take, a bit. It’s more that the team has had consistent issues for the past few seasons running, and having gone through this “star player wants to leave” narrative a few years running, it’s just feeling like something has to change.</div></div>

What would Winnipeg want
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rooney</b></div><div>I think Detroit could potentially be a good trading partner for Roslovic. In the article, it was rumoured they want a Top-4 D in return but I don't see Detroit providing that. Would asking for Rasmussen in a 1 for 1 type deal be fair or am I off base there?</div></div>
Maybe a 1 for 1 with Cholowski? Though DET needs every strong D prospect they can get and Cholo has another year on his ELC. Also depends on who each teams wants to protect in the expansion draft

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsForEver</b></div><div>Whoever voted Ottawa winning this trade, please explain yourself. I'd like to hear that mindset</div></div>
It wasn't me, but I'll take a crack at it. Seems to me that OTT figures they have an abundance of prospects AND draft capital. So they took a flyer on a guy who has a decent chance of bouncing back and stabilizing their top 6 and probably flip at the deadline for a future asset.
That said, I voted ARI wins this one. They traded a guy who wasn't going to put them over the top and became cap compliant in the process while also getting a 2nd rounder for their trouble. A pick they BADLY need to help keep their prospect pool full.
