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

What a circus the trade has turned out to be for the Canes. First it was deemed incredible for a brief moment and now just endless trade speculation.

You keep saying this as if him not extending in 1.5 years means his value is low.
Who cares whether he was going to sign in Carolina or not? He’s still an extremely valuable piece to a bunch of other teams

Sure, but Mikko does have value still as well. Maybe it's a futures package that you can flip later. Or, maybe you take the bet and trade for Pettersson AND Demko from Vancouver. I don't f***ing know.

If Carolina trades Mikko now, it will look silly. Absolutely. But to claim it's going to be a disaster value wise is far from certain.

CMac's hung over after Team USA's loss. He had three Stella's and he was drunker than you were last night. He's about to dip into his 4th and keep her goin, because he's got Sakic talking shit to him in the group chat.

We gotta wait till next Friday for trades.

Nah, hes busy negotiating McJesus for Mittelstadt, but Oilers are unreasonable and cant see how money they save on the salary difference between them can help them improve their depth - they could have even 2 mittelstadts!

Mikko Rantanen's future plans reportedly revealed as he doesn't want to sign in Carolina

Not only has there been buzz that the Hurricanes could potentially flip the pending UFA in the coming weeks, but now, it appears as though Rantanen doesn't see his future in Carolina either.

With Beds further burying Mitts, CMac needs to make a move now to get Mitts off the team and a better fit for 2C in.

I agree, but what's the move? It takes two teams to trade. Lots of teams are within a few points of a playoff spot so they likely won't be sellers

I imagine if mikko is moved he’s gonna come back west, or a bottom feeder. I’m gonna guess Chicago is gonna be that team as a bottom feeder. Imagine him in Dallas or Edmonton.

No way the Oilers get the cap space

I do see non-playoff teams taking a swing this summer if he's available: Chicago, Montreal, Seattle, Utah, Buffalo...

If you ever need a jolt of dopamine, watch the Kadri hat trick game against the Blues after the death threats. Or the game winner against Tampa with a broken hand. Unbelievable gamer and player. Makes me want to read his book now just thinking about it.

How we ended up replacing him with the most stale, bland, and dry piece of toast in Mittlestadt is Cmacs most damning mistake.

 

[Balthazar]

I thought that guy was on his last miles in the NHL when we acquired him years ago.

For a run they could get a team to take half mikko salary to get to around 2-5 to 3 million and send out that much salary it’s not hard not even a little bit
