Rumor: 2024-2025 Trade Rumors and Free Agency Talk | Part Deux

Just when we thought we were safe!

I quite enjoy his Ryan Graves moments, and I hated Graves.

If only Graves had a dial where you could turn him off of hero mode, he would have been fine here. He just completely read the script wrong and believed he was the main character while Cale Makar was sitting right next to him. When he wasn't trying to be Cale Makar, I thought he was actually a pretty damn good partner for Makar.

 

[Balthazar]

I wonder if it's double retention or a real 3 team trade like the Duchene-Turris-Girard one.

Thank God for Toews

Manson is at his best at playoff hockey were he can get away with hard hits and play his physical game.

He makes gaffes in the poss season though too.

There aren't many players producing more reliably than Pettersson say over the last 5 years. I don't think we can expect anyone better than him from a Rants trade.

He doesn't really produce that much though. Mikko trade aside.

EP is actually tied for 27th in the last five years with exactly 1.00 pts/gm. And that includes his two best outlier seasons.

Miller is 15th with 1.09 pts/gm. Also includes his two best outlier seasons.

When was the last time Colorado was part of a threesome?

Maybe Carolina is the budget team retaining on Jones while Chicago is retaining on Hall.

Congrats. This lose string that turned into this was your call. Good job.

Agree, RIAL? @RoyIsALegend

Nuke every weekend.

But trade wise? Duchene trade

Jones (9.5M AAV) is a righty so he'd have to replace Manson (4.5M AAV).

How much better than Manson is Jones these days? Hawks would have to retain a ton of money and we'd have to pay them dearly to do so.

For a team with no cap space and almost no assets left that move just doesn't make any sense to me.

I don't think they have to replace Manson with a Jones trade. Maybe in the offseason if they need cap space, but even then they have other candidates for that. Especially if they don't re-sign Mikko.

If they move Manson, they'll just have to replace him anyway this year. They need at least two big bodies that can also PK on the back end for the playoffs and I think they know that.

Bumping Manson to the third pair for a guy like Jones helps the team out a lot too. Improves the third pair and takes the reliance off Josh with his injury history.

Only on the weekends is massive improvement.

They were the front runner for Miller. Wonder what's happening now.

Coincides with that report that Vancouver didn't like the offers for Miller and are considering moving EP.

Cane fans think they aren't done, especially if double retention on Hall. We'll see.

So Carolina gets Hall, we get Jones?

I consider those good numbers.

Sucks to be a Canes fan if they were expecting Miller or Rantanen and get old washed up Taylor Hall instead.

 

[hockeyfish]

Holy shitballs!

 

[The Merchant]

Good on Carolina for finally adding that superstar to put them over the edge

 

[Balthazar]

The thing with EP is if he does get back to where he was pre-Miller incident, you get a 1C level star for the rest of his prime for relatively cheap (considering he's signed for 7 years and the cap is predicted to go up significantly)
