Rumor: 2024-2025 Trade Rumors and Free Agency Talk | The Slow Crawl to the Season

[hockeyfish]

I don't believe the NHL publicly gave them a timeline, though.

Looking it up, it was just that they would get there is "reasonable time."

It's probably just next years cap compliance deadlines. That would make the most sense.

Gonna be real nice to have an actual top 6 again. If I’m the Avs I run Nuke and Drouin on the top line. Gives us two great lines:

Drouin-MacK-Nuke
Lehk-Mitts-Rants

Then we have two fourth lines:

Kivi-Kelly-LOC
Ivan-Prisch-Kovy

What’s nice is that we still have essentially a full third line that could be all back in the new year:

Landy-Colton-Wood

I would like us to get a true 3C, but overall the depth up top is nice.

Assuming Landy can come back at around 80%, Landy can help cover a lot of Colton's deficencies.

I agree, we only have to get Bednar to agree to split up Mack and Mikko. Easier said than done.

Cale looks like he's been hitting the gym quite a bit

 

[Sea Eagles]

Full strength, we are delicious (I'd also bring back Ritchie to be surrounded by experienced vets):

Drouin - Mack - Rants
Lehks - Mitts - Nuke
Landy - Ritchie - LOC
Wood - Colton - Kovalenko

Toews - Makar
Girard - Manson
Ludvig - Malinski

I don't think you can bring back players that are not in the AHL.

Unless that's the playoff roster fitting both Nuke and Landy together will be interesting.

Gibson made his 1st start of the year tonight. Got to wonder if we had scouts there.

He was incredible in a 4-2 Ducks win.

Big 40 save night on his return.

Get this man and get him now.

Two different posts on the Ducks board said “pick up your phone, Sakic!”

Maybe both sides can wish it into reality.

Blackwood also with a 44 save SO against the Devils.

Send em Georgiev and Wood, then talk picks and prospects the Ducks would need to move him. Toss Kylington in there to balance out salaries.

Send em Gulyayev for him. F*** it.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Wonder how much Gibson @ $3.2M would cost. If they trade for him at the deadline that would be about $7M in real money retention. That's slightly more then 1st round pick value...

 

[AvStock]

People like me? You mean all the GMs in the NHL? Because no GM would value Girard more than Byram

Girard is so good we won the cup because he got injured and didn’t play for us!

 

[Pokecheque]

Right, exactly, so the Avs traded the right guy. Doesn’t mean they traded the better player, they traded the guy with the better rep.

 

[UncleRisto]

You guys are f***ing blind. It's Phoenix. The Yotes are back baby!

And apparently they doubled their franchise value.

Nice traps, he's been deadlifting

Well this deal could be good, if they could reduce Gibsons salary and take our shit. Id be willing to pay pretty penny for that.

Not that sold on Gibson though. It's a risk.

Literally every goalie they try and get will be a risk, if not a massive risk.

That’s why they will keep Georgiev
