Thread: Mock Hronek trades

I like Hronek but the Hurricanes probably need a forward back a trade for Necas... if it was future assets then sure let's talk about a Hronek deal

I don't get Chicago's fans' hatred of Kuzy... sure he's had his problems off the ice but it made him stronger and that's a type of person who'd be a great mentor for Bedard

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>knowerofpuck</b></div><div>Andersen had a shaky playoff but I don't think CAR has to just give away a goalie coming off a .932 SV%, even more so attaching a pick to him.</div></div>

Shaky playoffs is a bit of an understatement... He couldn't stop slipping and he gave up a bunch of softies. I think this is more about ensuring that PK gets a legit shot at being the starter

That's a bad contract for Hronek and you forgot to sign Jarvis

Thread: Necas and Draisaitl

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DenisPotvin</b></div><div>No way Carolina does that unless Necas has a terrible season. They'd want a first-rounder coming back.</div></div>

They'd want a close to ready NHL prospect with top-6 potential

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GuyGuyGuy</b></div><div>Yeah sure, but Newhook isn’t a project nor injury prone. He is an etablish second liner</div></div>

No offense to you but I wouldn't say a guy who's scored max points in a season 34 an established second liner... I consider a second liner more in the 55-60 point range

Congrats on making a massive mess of the team

Thread: 24-25 V3

You don't have the prospects or roster pieces to swing Necas

Thread: Necas for Ullmark

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac555</b></div><div>You might have a market of about 5-6 teams actually willing to trade for an RFA who needs a contract (this gives 70% of GMs stress farts). You cut that down now because he’s a wing.

Hope I’m wrong.</div></div>

I think you're wrong for few reasons...
1. A bunch of teams is really looking to get over the hump or become relevant and a lot of them have very lucrative prospects or young centers and Necas is a very intriguing option
2. Don usually wins trades
3. We still have a crap ton of leverage... Necas hasn't said that he won't sign and we can always try to fix our problem in-house

Thread: les habs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GuyGuyGuy</b></div><div>Newhook and Necas were almost identical offensively this year, but Newhook is better defensively. Necas has the upside, but Newhook has the cheap contract</div></div>

But another winger or reclamation project or banking on fewer injuries isn't gonna be particularly palatable in Carolina after the KK experiment

Thread: Necas for Ullmark

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac555</b></div><div>Not happening.

Canes ran this to the end of the line, and now the expectations should be a decent pick + roster filling pieces to fill UFA spots.

PLD ruined the market for RFAs with Arb looking for long term deals. Not going to find takers.</div></div>

He's shown a consistent ability to score and doesn't have character issues like PLD... There might be some hesitancy but your probably gonna find a sucker

Thread: Necas for Ullmark

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac555</b></div><div>Let’s temper these expectations. You aren’t getting a “top 6 center” for a RFA with Arb. I’d be happy to be wrong, but I don’t see many options available for a top 6 C for Necas swap.</div></div>

I'm willing to send some pieces and prospects with Necas but the returning piece shouldn't be less than a top-6 center or a prospect with top-6 potential... Like in Seattle you have three potential options that you could deal for

Thread: Next Season Brainstorm

I would rather have O'Reilly and then go after another goalie with a first

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 4:34 p.m.

Thread: Necas for Ullmark

The Hurricanes need a top-6 center in return for Necas and Boston doesn't have one anywhere in its organization

Thread: No NMC Waived

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NazKat</b></div><div>Not completely opposed to Necas + for Cowan, but what would Carolina offer?</div></div>

I think a 3rd+4th might make sense considering the cap implications but I'm not opposed to more

Thread: les habs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GuyGuyGuy</b></div><div>I’m not saying Carolina would accept a future based trade, but what I said is what fair value would be. I think a Newhook for Necas swap makes the most sense if Necas was to be traded to Montreal.</div></div>

I think Newhook might be a reclamation project but I don't think that as a base for a Necas trade makes sense... Dach feels like the easiest trade piece considering age, position, and salary

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 2:32 p.m.

Thread: les habs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GuyGuyGuy</b></div><div>Necas would get less than a Fiala package. So like 18th and a Faber like prospect. If you take into account that going from 23 to 15 cost 48 and 138, going from 27 to 18 cost around the same. A fair package would hence be : 27, 57, 69, 133 and Engstrom for Necas</div></div>

I would agree with a mostly futures based package if the Hurricanes were in the position that the Kings are but they probably need a roster player at this point of their window

Thread: les habs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ht42</b></div><div>Delusional</div></div>

Not really... he's been stuck on a line with a couple of fourth liners for most of the year and he still managed to plot 25 goals which is more than Dach has ever produced by about 10

Forum: Armchair-GMYesterday at 2:15 p.m.

Thread: les habs

Dach at a minimum would have to be coming back in exchange for Necas

I would rather it be Necas + for Cowan rather than it being Necas for Minten +

Thread: Setting the record straight with Necas

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>Thinking that's a bit aspirational unless Carolina is adding. Necas needs a new contract and presumably wants to get paid. Add his defensive deficiencies to only having one season past the ~55 point mark is gamble that he's going to open up in a more.free flowing system.

He's probably a fine complimentary winger with his shot and his speed but he's not driving the plays himself, he's riding passenger.</div></div>

He's a very good play driver and I'd be fine paying more if it doesn't come in the form of roster players or our four big prospects

I would like Hill... he would be a great choice for the canes
