Rant doesn’t play center and hasn’t in at least a few years. Drai won’t get to UFA. There’s a reason the cream of the crop rarely get to UFA

Eklund put up 40 points in his 1st nhl season and Zetterlund scored 25 goals… no rookies seen. Not saying they are better than Jarvis, but Nadeau both are

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>seanrushton</b></div><div>I see Granlund as a temporary solution for a year and then we can figure out something for 25-26 plus the market is going to be amazing Leon Draisaitl, Mikko Rantanen, and Mitchell Marner are all up</div></div>

I get it but if you want a 1 year solution just sign Henrique for half the money for a year or just let Drury or kk do it.

Alwqys like granlund but his production is erratic. I think he gets moved but it's a deadline thing not a solution.

Thread: necas

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>seanrushton</b></div><div>I'd be fine adding some assets to make up the difference but it doesn't make sense for Carolina to move him for futures</div></div>

I think Necas is better than Caufield and has a higher ceiling than Suzuki, but I just don’t think the Habs want to trade those guys. If we’re trading Necas for an immediate upgrade I’d target a RD like Rasmus Andersson or a forward like Nick Schmaltz

And I’m just being realistic, I’d love to get someone like Kyle Connor but the jets seem committed to becoming the western conference leafs

Well yeah, I assume any trade includes an extensiom

Thread: Positive Offseason

Carolina can just give him a qualifying offer and trade his rights if they want to move Necas. They don't and WILL NOT let him walk away. You'll have to give up something of interest. Plus, Carolina can force a contract because of his arbitration eligibility.

Goyette is closer to 2 years out. Likely needs to spend at least 1 year in the AHL before transitioning to the NHL, but he has the skill set to make it in the NHL, just needs a bit more time.

Yes for sure. I would take Necas instead of Lundell and move Savoie and pieces

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>seanrushton</b></div><div>I blame Necas discrepancy in production on Rod not being able to just leave the damn lines alone this last year. Your prospects or 1st round picks are probably the only things of interest to the Canes when it comes to Necas. I don't see a scenario in which he goes to Chicago and not one of your like top-5 prospects come back to Raleigh</div></div>

Saw a deal earlier today that had Necas to Chicago for Murphy (50% retained), Kurashev and a 2nd. That seems like a deal that both teams might consider. But yeah, I get your position too.

The Sharks might take Burns back, if he'd agree. We'd rather have Burns than Kuznetsov.

Couterproposal #1: Burns for Burroughs.

Counterproposal #2: Burns, Kuznetsov and a 3rd for Burroughs and Cane's choice of Addison, Benning, Rutta, or Zadina (pick one)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cmarch</b></div><div>Why would Minnesota trade for Askarov when they have Wallstedt?</div></div>

They wouldn’t. It’s just ACGM fun.

Would be interesting tandem though.

Thread: canucks

No need for all the filler, if there’s a Necas for Hronek trade to be made its very likely 1-1. Doesn’t mean I like that possibility as a Canes’ fan, but that’s about the only realistic VAN player, outside of Hoglander, that the Canes might be interested in.

With the Kotkaniemi buyout being so cheap, the Canes would have zero interest in Mikheyev.

Points aren't everything. He PK's, he's our best defensive forward, and he was on pace for 54 points if he played the full season.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>seanrushton</b></div><div>That's a fair point... I think he does have the tools to eventually be a center somebody just needs to put them together</div></div>

I'm not saying he's a bad trade target or can't become a center at the NHL level. Just not to expect it. He most likely pans out as a winger

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>seanrushton</b></div><div>Why don't you think that Goyette would translate to center at the NHL level?

He's already playing wing last I checked. Dvorsky centers that line no? Also at 5'10, unless he becomes a star forward he's pretty unlikely to hold out as a center

Gee, Canes have Andersson, why do they need Ullmark, especially at that cost..

Well that’s embarrassing.

Ullmark for the 1st is fair value.

Dumping JK does not cost them Necas & Martin.

Elias will cost more than Necas

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>seanrushton</b></div><div>I do not want anywhere near Norris's contract unless you guys stupidly decide to retain or he can stay healthy</div></div>

Man, Norris isn't getting moved until the trade deadline where he proves to Ottawa or other teams he can stay healthy anyway and isn't held back by yet another shoulder injury. As much as I would love to exchange him for Necas here there's just no way any teams would give us value for him. If he got moved right now it would be for pennies.

I think Carolina would rather just pay Necas - Norris level money than trade him for Norris haha.
