Thread: Carolina-Tarasenko and Offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>A_K</b></div><div>Exactly, Nino would produce more than any UFA that would sign a 1 yr deal. So you get someone to play up and down lineup at LW, chip in some offense, and buy another year for Kyrou, Thomas, Kostin, Neighbours to develop without sacrificing the long-term cap. Not the sexy return that Tarasenko could've once brought, but maybe as good as it's gonna get.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheEarthmaster</b></div><div>If we're trading with Carolina the Nino-Tarasenko swap is my personal preference. Adding one more top six forward wouldn't force Kyrou or Thomas into a top six role they may or may not be ready for, and it's only for one year so we retain flexibility going forward.</div></div>

Carolina are not looking to swap top-6 forwards they are looking to add. Why would Carolina give St.Louis a healthy Nino for an injured Tarasenko, that literally makes zero sense. I think Gunler (considered a top-15 prospect in 2020 draft, he fell due to attitude) and a 1st for Tarasenko is good aslong as we can get half of his salary retained, but I want to move Martinook so bad because I want Drury to play on the 4th line. Drury played good in a league that is better than the AHL, so it literally makes zero sense for him to play there. It's just very confusing.
