Rumor: 2022-2023 Trade Rumors and Free Agency: Let’s Run it Back!

[Richard88]

Why do you think?

What I was getting at is how this sort of news rarely comes from the guys covering the Avs.

To be fair that probably has a lot to do with the Avs being tight-lipped so things usually only leak from the other side.

 

[Chiarelli]

Precedent was set to get a 3rd for kuemper. Joe will know what he’s looking for and can pass that info on to the team.

I hope so badly Edmonton signs him to a long term 6+ aav. That will blow up so badly in their face.

And nuke is getting close F yessssss

 

[Bender]

Getting Nuke extended well before free agency would be awesome. And kudos to Joe for the savvy move on the goalie front. Georgiev was apparently not going to get a QO from NYR but on the UFA market anything can happen, including having to massively overpay.

I think Campbell winds up in New Jersey, Edmonton gets Kuemper, and Toronto find themselves in a serious pinch, ultimately dealing to San Jose for Reimer or some other scrub.

Don't forget, you also have Washington that is looking to upgrade in goal.

I think this part has got to be making Dubas shaking in his shorts a little bit. They are the 'contender' and can't afford to be left haggling with Jaroslav Halak or trying to pry Jake Allen out of Montreal - to be their starter???

Not sure how Toronto can afford to let Kuemper get away especially since Husso just signed. What are they gonna do, make a trade from a massive position of weakness to get Bobrovsky?

We'd get breaking news if we had real guys covering the team (like Strickland).

 

[Chiarelli]

Joe learnt from last year big time. He got georgiev at the perfect time and the goaltending market has completely dried up.

Toronto only have a 2, 3, and 7 in this draft.

Edmonton are missing a few picks in the mid rounds the next two drafts as well.

NJ have a few extra mid round picks though, could see them making a move if they believe Kuemper will sign there.

[Ararana]

Take New Jersey off the list

 

[UncleRisto]

Unbelievable how easily hockey Twitter is entertained.

[hockeyfish]

Capitals about to make a move for Darcy. Book it.

 

[UncleRisto]

Take New Jersey off the list

That's very little.

 

[BobRossColton]

Add Bowers or Kaut to kuempers right? Get a younger player instead?

 

[The Abusement Park]

That's very little.

Not a very good goalie tbf.

 

[hughdreamz]

That's very little.

A 2nd and 3rd for a not so good starting goalie seems fair

 

[Bender]

After everything we've done for the Capitals over the years to alleviate their goaltending situations, you'd think they'd want to return the favor when it's their turn...

 

[Richard88]

Pick 70 that WSH just acquired would be nice value for Kuemper.

If that happened Sakic will effectively have moved Kuemper's UFA rights for Georgiev straight across, since the picks to NYR are about equal to pick 70.

 

[Muffin]

It's not a 2nd and a 3rd. It's a 3rd and Washington moved up.

 

[Pokecheque]

That's very little.

Not much goaltending coming back though.

 

[henchman21]

A 2nd and 3rd for a not so good starting goalie seems fair

There is a 2nd going with Vanecek too.

 

[Foppberg]

Lots of trades so far in this draft. Me likey.

 

[hughdreamz]

E5

Good point. Pretty good deal for NJ.

 

[Chiarelli]

Bend one of these teams over a barrel for kuemper rights joe. Get us a late second to speak into that whispering eye of DK

 

[CharlesPuck]

Joe doesnt want a pick, why would he deal DK for a lousy pick???
