Thread: Canes send at the deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>etpeck</b></div><div>There are certainly other center options, O’Reilly for example. Do think the canes need to go after someone who can be at least partially the second line center for the playoff run. I still have belief that kk can be it at some point but for now having him as a 4C is just great depth</div></div>

Agree. If it comes down to it give me Toews over ROR all day. I just don’t think ROR is gonna be able to regain form after the broken foot, rough year before that and changing teams in a short time period. Plus the cost to acquire will be higher for him versus Toews.

I wouldn’t mind Henrique but I actually don’t like that he has an extra year left in this situation bc I’d rather see Necas shifted to C next year after full offseason preparing for it and getting another top 6 guy with the cap space versus having it tied up with Henrique. KK I see as long term 3C at this point with an outside shot of figuring out 2C. Either way I’m fine with that outcome at his cap hit.

Thread: The Kids Are Alright

That is in no way an overpay for Necas. Zadina is at the point where he is a bust. The second is magic beans. And the Canes have more competent LD prospects than McIsaac. In what way is that an overpay. An overpay that would make the Canes consider would be Raymond, but we all know that won’t happen. Outside of that, there really isn’t anyone else that would make sense for the Canes to target if they trade Necas.

Thread: Hurricanes Offseason

I know you’re not a canes fan but don’t know where to start.

Bear isn’t getting that much anywhere and likely won’t be back. Necas definitely isn’t getting that, likely a bridge deal around 2x3.5-4. Cole is absolutely not getting a raise from canes. Troch probably gets that but not from CAR - likely a shorter cheaper deal if he wants to stay. Nobody is giving up that much for TDA and you didn’t replace him so now there’s a glaring hole in roster.

You get a failing grade just because you created a team with Aho, Laine and Puljujärvi and didn’t put them on the same line.

Thread: If not this year then next

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>greytcanes</b></div><div>I don't really disagree with you. One issue Calgary will be facing is needed inexpensive ways to fill out and hopefully upgrade their defense, due to the amount they will have to pay for Tkachuk and Gaudreau and to try to keep up with Edm and Colorado. I can't see how they keep Mag, but that news will get out and bidding will be higher than I propose

For both trades I try not to include Morrow, but probably would have to</div></div>

I think there’s quite a bit you can do before throwing Morrow in. If morrow is included in a deal it should be for a higher end goal scoring winger imo.

Thread: Garland

Cool concept but 6 more years of OEL scares me (even with some retention). Feel like I’d rather give Hamilton 7 years at 8M and find a second pair LD for 3-4 per year instead (if we were to move Skjei or he gets taken in expansion). I get that it’s just another exercise to see what Canes could do if Dougie does walk though, good work.

Thread: What I would do

Going for forsberg would be a really good move. It would bolster the canes offense even more than it does now. Plus forsberg would score a lot more as a cane than a pred. The preds leading scoring has mainly been josi and his point production has dropped. With the injury concerns that have surrounded forsberg this trade would be a fair offer. Whenever injury concerns are brought up for a player you will never get top dollar as we will most likely see in an Eichel trade soon.

Thread: Potential Part 8

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>etpeck</b></div><div>Yeah i pretty much agree with all of that. I guess my biggest concern is that im not sure Bean is ready to play on the 2nd pair. If you go with Oleksiak over Martinez, it forces bean to play in the top 4. I still think bean is a year or 2 away from that</div></div>

Agreed. Bean may not be ready, but I feel playing with Pesce can make him "ready". He looked great alongside him this season. I think if he trains hard in the offseason, he can become "ready" and that will determine what the bottom 4 d looks like.

I guess there are two ways to look at the bottom 4:

Bean-Pesce
Oleksiak-Hakanpaa

or

Martinez - Pesce
Bean - Hakanpaa

I'm really fine with either way though.

Thread: Very Aggressive Move - Trocheck

Canes aren’t moving Troch for future picks alone. They’re getting right into their prime and that opens up a huge hole for them when they should be adding to their top 6/9

Thread: Canes 21-22 Playoff Push

There's a major hole in the top 4, you don't address the issues Dougie or Skjei leaving provide, you don't address the lack of scoring from the offense, most of this is just very lateral.

Thread: Eichel

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Philly79</b></div><div>Necas or Jarvis or Aho or Svech need to be in the trade</div></div>

Aho is straight up better than Eichel... Necas and Svech are younger, more cost effective, and don't want to leave their team already... AND haven't suffered with serious injuries. Jarvis is probably fair to ask for, but that's where Carolina probably move on.

I wouldn't feel too bad if I was you. The your 81 million dollar team lost to a 90 million dollar team thanks to the NHL accepting lack of cap space as a legit LTIR injury.

As opposed to the joy of making unrealistic offers and getting bent of shape when called out for it.

Chill kid. This a good community. You are new here, not making a good first impression.

Depth chart, roster makeup matter. Canes have 2 NHL right shot D on their roster. Only Pesce signed beyond this year. Moving him with the uncertainty of Hamilton is downright stupid on their part. Don’t know what the original offer was but his trade value is 1st and mid level prospect or 2nd and high end prospect. But getting fair market value does not mean it’s a good deal for them.

A. Sign me up for Svech at 6 million for 6 years. Ain’t happening

3. We would probably convince Francis to take Nino faster than Gardiner
4. You gave us the worst goalie tandem in the league

I’m not saying the trade isn’t close to fair value, just that the habs aren’t interested. Mostly because I’m sure that the organization and myself both see more in Drouin than what his trade value might be throughout the league.

Thread: new one

Dude... Its just not enough.

I don't know how many times I have to say this.

If you want Pesce, it will cost more than that.

Carolina has ZERO desire to move Pesce. NONE! Why would they?

Time to pick a new target if you must, (I see no reason to at this point as the team is pretty much set for the next season).

This offer is akin to Carolina asking for Rielly or Muzzin and offering a backup goalie, a lower pair D and a 2nd round pick.

Its just not worth it for them or the construction of their current team. Understand?
