Carolina Hurricanes :
- Martin Necas

Winnipeg Jets :
- Nikolaj Ehlers

Sounds like the Canes are aggressively pursuing Ehlers.

Winnipeg adds, necas is 5 years young, and also plays center. Ehlers is LW only, which is an actual need for carolina.


2.) 06 Jul 2024 01:04:24
I can't see Winnipeg just making a lateral move when they trade Ehlers. It's only 2 years of control for Necas and his next contract will certainly be more than Ehlers contract next year.

It just doesn't make sense for Winnipeg.

Are you saying Laine is a cap dump or do you really think Lunderstrom is worth a potential 40 goal guy and a 1st. This is awful. Laine would land a good pick even at his cap hit. A team like Chicago can take the risk because the reward could be huge.


2.) 04 Jul 2024 00:22:29
@vbb I’m calling Laine a cap dump in this deal. Back to back 50pt seasons and then missed an entire season while making 8.7M for the next 2 seasons ain’t exactly a steal.


3.) 04 Jul 2024 00:42:39
You called Mangiapane a cap dump, so why not Laine?

Laine makes 8.7M and registered 52Pts playing on the 1st Line and PP.
Mangiapane makes 5.8M and registered 40Pts playing on the 3rd Line.
- Both played for a defense-first system on bad teams
- Mangiapane is significantly better defensively
- Laine missed the entire season
- Laine requested a trade so they lost their leverage

Kevin Hayes was dumped with a 2nd, Mikheyev dumped with a 2nd and Walman dumped with a 2nd. It’s a huge risk for any team especially after missing the entire season with that cap hit.


4.) 04 Jul 2024 03:13:08
NotACasual maybe take a look at the GP. He was near a PPG on a brutal blue jackets team and same as the year prior he was pacing for 82 PTS. Yes he has injury problems and has off ice issues but Mangiapane is no where’s near a healthy Laine. Are you really trying to say he is?

Like I said 2 years in a row pacing at or near a PPG, still young and completely healthy going into the season. That is the definition of a buy low. A team like Chicago would be stupid not to take him why wouldn’t they.


5.) 04 Jul 2024 05:28:20
I’m not saying Mangiapane is as good as Laine but Laine carries a lot of risk that may scare off some teams. Jackets have everything working against them in a potential trade for Laine. Maybe they don’t have to pay for a team to take him but I just threw an idea out there.


6.) 04 Jul 2024 15:13:30
They won’t have to pay for him. Like I said their is zero reason why Chicago or San Jose wouldn’t take the risk.


7.) 04 Jul 2024 16:22:19
Well considering Chicago only has around $4mill in cap space they can't afford him without maybe giving up AA, but even still they'd have under a mill in cap space after the fact.

As for San Jose why add that contract when there is potentially going to be some big names available next year at free agency that they'd have a tonne of cap room to utilize.

Laine obviously could have a great year and he could also have a mediocre year or just not have a year at all. There's too many unknowns and $8.7mill on a player with that many unknowns just doesn't seem like a smart gamble to make.


8.) 04 Jul 2024 17:26:32
Taking a guy that can score 40 is a no brainer for a team that can easily fit his cap for the next two years.


9.) 04 Jul 2024 18:44:43
Laine isn’t worth a bag of pucks.


 

 

03 Jul 2024 09:16:08
Flames need a defensemen, Avalanche need cap space and some cheap depth.


Calgary Flames :
- Brayden Pachal (775K @ 1 RFA)
- Kevin Rooney (1.3M @ 1 UFA)

Colorado Avalanche :
- Samuel Girard (5M @ 3 UFA)
- 2025 2nd Round Pick (NYR)


J Drouin - N MacKinnon - M Rantanen
G Landeskog - C Mittelstadt - V Nichushkin
M Wood - R Colton - N Kovalenko
P Kelly - K Rooney - L O’Connor

D Toews - C Makar
C De Haan - J Manson
E Brannstrom - B Pachal


A Kuzmenko - N Kadri - Y Sharangovich
J Huberdeau - C Zary - A Mantha
B Coleman - M Pospisil - M Coronato
J Pelletier - M Backlund - R Lomberg

M Weegar - R Andersson
K Bahl - S Girard
J Bean - D Miromanov

1.) 04 Jul 2024 16:25:59
Colorado is in cap hell going into Rantanen's contract year so I won't be surprised if they explore a deal to clear cap space like this.

They really need to have the conversation with Landy about his playing future, especially if he gets injured again this year. Great player and leader, but can't seem to escape the injury big.

Winnipeg Jets :
- Rutger McGroarty

Columbus Blue Jackets :
- David Jiricek
- 2026 2nd Round Pick

using the Cutter Gauthier trade as comp

NotACasual

1.) 23 Jun 2024 03:57:16
I doubt very much that Columbus trades Jiricek for a player that was selected Ted 8 picks after Juric2k, never mind adding a 2nd AZ well.


2.) 23 Jun 2024 10:32:09
I agree, I think Winnipeg adds the pick.


3.) 23 Jun 2024 13:42:29
lol what? No from Columbus Jiricek has developed pretty solid. He’s a good 2 way dman that should be in the NHL full time next year. Rutger is not even close to his value. Besides Fantilli, Jiricek is there most untouchable player and it has been stated multiple times that he’s the dman that they're building their Dcore around and keep in mind they say that with Zach Werenski there so the bluejackets (prior to kekoleinen leaving) value Jiricek higher then Werenski.

Jiricek doesn’t have flashy offensive tools but he projects to be a Jacob Slavin type dman.


4.) 23 Jun 2024 15:31:43
I'd like Jiricek for the Jets but I don't see Columbus doing it.


5.) 23 Jun 2024 16:46:05
The Jets would be foolish to trade McGroarty as he is going to be a top line forward in a few years.


6.) 24 Jun 2024 04:17:17
Islandjet, he doesn't want to be there and would rather play out his college career and become a ufa. Hes not gonna be a jet unless they make him guarantees. He sounds like a pre maddona already. Talented players but another Laine. He needs to be on a team that keeps him under control and Winnipeg doesn't have the right players to do that. If they had wheeler still maybe.


 

 

16 Jun 2024 03:45:13
Calgary Flames :
- Rasmus Andersson (4.5M @ 2 UFA)
- Andrei Kuzmenko (5.5M @ 1 UFA)

Toronto Maple Leafs :
- William Nylander (11.5M @ 8 UFA)


Leafs save 1.4M, acquire a solid RHD on a great contract and a slow skilled winger. Flames acquire an elite forward which they severely lack.

Nylander, 28
82GP | 40G 58A | 98Pts

Andersson, 27
78GP | 9G 30A | 39Pts

Kuzmenko, 28
72GP | 22G 24A | 46Pts

NotACasual

1.) 16 Jun 2024 14:05:07
I like the idea but it wouldn't work for many reasons. Nylander has a full no move clause and seems very happy to be playing in Toronto for the next 8 years.

Calgary already made a long term commitment to Huberdeau which turned out to be a huge mistake. If the Flames are as bad as they were this season WITH Andersson and Kuz, I dont even want to imagine how bad they'd be without those 2 and Nylander instead.


2.) 17 Jun 2024 23:00:57
That would be good to be terrible for the Flames. No team wins without top end (top 5) draft picks. Need that skill.

So we heard from multiple sources that the deadline deal for Markstrom was Holtz + + for Markstrom, now we’re hearing the deal was Bahl + conditional 3rd wtf. We had like 7 people saying different things, quite happy with the deal. Doesn’t blow me away but glad he waited it out if that’s the case.

29 Feb 2024 08:29:26
Chris Tanev for Artem Grushnikov, 2024 2nd & Conditional 2026 3rd
Sean Monahan for 2024 1st & Conditional 2027 3rd
Elias Lindholm for Andrei Kuzmenko, Joni Jurmo, Hunter Brzustewicz, 2024 1st & Conditional 2024 4th

What do we think Noah Hanifin returns for the Flames? I’m thinking a 1st + prospect + roster player for rental, more if he comes with an extension.

NotACasual

 

 

29 Feb 2024 08:24:00
Flames basically got two 2nds and a 3rd for Tanev, you’re telling me Treliving couldn’t do better than that? It was rumoured that they were asking for a single 1st, why wouldn’t he pay that considering Tanev lives in Toronto in the off-season so there’s no doubt he’d resign, you’re getting him 75% retained and he improves your defence drastically for the playoffs. Flames fans know have seen this from Treliving for years “runner up” constantly lol.

Not a bad return but also not as good as everyone anticipated, I’m pretty sure it was VB who was pretty spot on about his value.

NotACasual

1.) 01 Mar 2024 00:41:36
Isn’t the condition on if Dallas wins the cup? I’d say it’s closer to a 2nd and 3rd as a return.


 

 

01 Feb 2024 01:13:11
what a haul for Lindholm

NotACasual

1.) 01 Feb 2024 13:37:34
I thought other teams could have used him more, but definitely not offering that much for him.


 

 

08 Jan 2024 14:09:45
Auston Matthews - $13.25 @ 4 UFA
William Nylander - $11.50 @ 8 UFA
John Tavares - $11.00 @ 2 UFA
Mitch Marner - $10.90 @ 2 UFA

yikes dude, this team will never win a cup with contracts like that.

NotACasual

1.) 09 Jan 2024 02:26:29
Tavares will sign a league Minimum 700k deal then they will be fine.


2.) 10 Jan 2024 15:10:23
Tavares could sign a Giroux / Pavelski deal easily. So he’s gonna leave 20M off the table?


3.) 12 Jan 2024 01:44:09
Nylander might end up being similar to the Nurse contract.


4.) 02 Mar 2024 17:45:02
After Tavares and Marner contracts are up I suspect Marner gets in the $12mill range and Tavares is let go unless he take a nice Jason Spezza like deal.


5.) 13 Mar 2024 00:22:16
The exact opposite will happen @mg69.

Lindholm rumoured to have turned down 8x8 from Calgary and 7x7 from Vancouver
Montour will probably get 7.5M +
Pesce will probably get around 5M +
Leafs will sign Tanev

Idk how realistic this is

@Sosahabs24! Sennecke ranks #16, Habs rumours are all over the place. Apparently they want Lindstrom if he’s available and if not they’ll take either Iginla or Sennecke. Idk how credible those rumours are though.

Retention on Kadri would be a huge no from the Flames, they weren’t even willing to retain on Zadorov. Kadri just had a 75 point season, if it’s Minny coming to Calgary asking for Kadri then Flames have all the leverage.

Habs apparently want Beckett Sennecke at #5 which is crazy, Demidov should be their selection if he’s available. If they want Sennecke why not just trade down and grab some assets?
