Dickinson my top target

Hartman has a NMC this year and in the offseason (first year of his new deal), with a 4m AAV.

To pricey for the Sens imo unless he’s in their top6 - and again he has a NMC.

I'd be into it

I don’t think Hartman would be available cause he just signed an extension plus he has a full NMC in his deal. &
I can tell you for sure than Jarnkrok isn’t available right now. Appleton might be a hard get because his line is playing well for the Jets and they’re fighting for a playoff spot. So the only realistic option is Foligno and I can’t imagine he’d cost more than a 3rd and a sub tier prospect

Totally forgot he'd signed his extension ahead of time. Though next year it's not Totally impossible to fit, though it would mean saying goodbye to Stinko.

Leafs are in no rush to move out jarnkrok he brings a lot for that 2.1M cap hit

If you want physicality, Blais and Duhiame are good options. So Foligno fits? so its physical your looking for not skill ight.

How about Pinto on the third line?

Ryan Hartman already has an extension in place, and is a big part of Minnesota’s forward group.

Both Appleton and Jarnkrok are key depth pieces from playoff teams, I don’t know why they’d sell them to a non-playoff team.

Foligno might be available when comes the deadline, I think he’ll be sought after though, driving his price up.

Only Foligno in that list should be moved. HE shouldn't be expensive either. 3rd rounder tops.

My main priorities would be a guy who can take care of business defensively while still bringing offensive utility to the 3rd line. Things like speed and physicality are nice, but not my main focus.

I like Duhaime as a 4th liner, not a 3rd liner. And Blais I'm not a huge fan of tbh.

You guys can have jarnkrok in the offseason for 2 3rds but doubt you wanna wait

Still got 22 games before he's an option, and frankly I'm not expecting him to be up to speed right away. In my opinion you start him at 4C until he shows he's ready for more. I just don't think it's enough to just wait, considering that 22 game stretch is make or break for the entire season.

I don't think the Jets will want to break up their Niederreiter-Lowry-Appleton line. They are playing very well.

Doubt the Hawks trade Foligno unless he specifically asks to be traded. And the Hawks won't want Kubalik back. They'll want a pick or a prospect.

Dickinson would be good but I’d rather see them target Laughton if they can figure a way to make his cap hit fit

I was going to say this... He's coming back in 20 games and Kubalik will most likely be gone by then, just a bit ahead of the trade deadline

Tarasenko - Stutzle - Batherson
Tkachuk - Norris - Giroux
Greig - Pinto - Joseph
Kelly - Chartier - Kastelic

An offensive dynamo line, two very good 2-way lines and Kastelic with 2 AHLers


Well, the plan (which was Dorion) is to have Kubalik in the meantime, I doubt they'll make a change for 20 games


0.5 more than Kubalik, so would need retention... and based on the crazy demands from Briere and some Flyers fans, I don't know

Dickinson is better anyway, would cost less to acquire and we could maybe sign him for less than 3.0 AAV if he fits with the team
