2023 Trade Deadline (03/03/23 3PM EST)

Lol no. Gavrikov is way better than Orlov. I’m just disappointed it hasn’t happened already

way better than orlov? lol wut. gulp. hot take central.

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

Lol no. Gavrikov is way better than Orlov. I’m just disappointed it hasn’t happened already

Uh, no. Orlov is a first pair Dman. Has been that for a contender, forever.

 

[I3LI3]

have a suspicious feeling Gavi will be heading out west to wear black white and silver.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

I’ll take Gavrikov over orlov but I appreciate the insight

 

[BB88]

Im sure right now we can still get a 1st, but I am seriously worried Jarmo will be stubborn asking for 1st+ to the point where he wont anymore.

To be fair any 1st they get will be better than Bostons would be

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

 

[CBJWerenski8]

i will say that even if I would prefer Gavrikov, it appears Boston had him as their backup plan once orlov became available. We got left at the alter.

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

Some writer said that NYR can afford Kane with some cap magic involving moving these two guys.

... so i guess that could be happening? Big boost for CHI in the Tankey Cup finals

 

[I3LI3]

honestly, I might be in the minority with this take but, I really like this whole ‘scratched due to trade related reasons’

kinda adds excitement (minus the fact that the players end up sitting for multiple games usually but still)

I think with it we just sacrificed our soul and our reputation only to get the rug yanked out from under us.

Because nobody's going to remember that so many teams did it. They're only going to remember that the Coyotes and the Jackets - two teams towards the bottom of the League - did it, and so "they deliberately tanked and so they deserve nothing" is going to be a perpetual refrain for the rest of our natural lives.

Wait are you serious?

I think Orlov is much better than Gavrikov…

I dont really care whether they play or not, but I love the honesty from the teams. Saying the trade chip is suddenly day-to-day was lame

 

[MissADD]

I wonder if Hathaway was the kicker for Boston because he replaces Smith, but cheaper. They Jackets didn't have that so that may have pushed them to Orlov over Gavrikov, I rate Gavi over him Orlov as well, but when look at this trade, doing this was prob cheaper

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Difference of opinion I guess. Boston seems to agree with you.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

So if Boston is done. Where’s he off to now?

We know the Kings want a D but want one with term. So I assume he’s off the market there

He’s been linked to Edmonton before. Is that the new favorite?

I disagree. Its protecting a trade asset. Look at what happened to Nyquist. He could have fetched at least a 2nd, if not a 1st. He got hurt and he may get nothing now. I only say may because I read he theoretically could be ready for the playoffs, but I am not sure how accurate that is.

Edmonton seems likely. I wonder if Kings would be interested in getting both Gavrikov and Korpi

 

[ViD]

Just put Gavrikov in, he’s staying

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

I generally like the openness and speculation of "for trade related reasons". But it becomes a problem after the third day or so, it shouldn't last that long... (I sort of get the protecting assets part of it but maybe that should be handled differently/worded different.)

At least we can take solace in the fact that Boston's 1st is going to be very late in the round.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Just put Gavrikov in, he’s staying

lol no he isn't. calm down

It should be Edmonton.

Karlsson is unrealistic and Klingberg is a damm mess.
& Edmonton is a defensive mess

 

[Youngguns1380]

I am just pissed - Jarmo playing the dentist and not reading the tea leaves. We may also now miss out on Chychrun.

Chychrun is now being rumored to Senators

 

[JohnnyJacket13]

Are we nervous that Gavrikov will still be returning a first?

No

 

[I3LI3]

Chychrun is now being rumored to Senators

good, I hope we do.

 

[Youngguns1380]

good, I hope we do.

Tell me who do we get with decent term (not 31 yr old Orlov looking for 6 years) that is the same or better than Gavrikov without overpaying for worse talent this summer. We needed this last year and didn’t get it done. I feel Jarmo is a decent evaluator but sucks at negotiations.

I would have preferred to keep Gavy - just for the record
