I just get the feeling that Anaheim is going to land Marchesaault on Monday. He is a perfect fit here the next 3-4 years
I’m a bit surprised we weren’t in on any of the trades today.
I have always felt that this was the year Verbeek had pegged to start turning the corner and going for it. I don’t know if he would have included the 2nd in the Gauthier trade if he felt it was probable we would be a bottom dweller again next year.
We have a lot of work to get out of the basement and I expected us to be busy, but now I’m not so sure.

Would not doubt if they circled back to him but he already made his mind up. They clearly just don’t value him as much as you’d think.

No one can sign him for 8 years. Only the Kings could have.

Ya meant to type 7, the offer was correct just clicked 8 instead of 7 on the last part.
But idk that id be comfortable giving him 7 regardless, would rather pay a bit more to keep him at 5 or 6.

So if the Ducks are looking for a top six, right shot RW in free agency, these would appear to be the options:
Reinhart
Stamkos
Marchessault
Toffoli
Perron
Roslovic
Arvidsson
Not sure if Roslovic qualifies as a top six guy, but I think he’d be the “fall back” option if they can’t land any of the bigger names.

Some really handsome and cool guy wrote about the best right-shot offseason targets if you want to read more about most of the names on that list.
Offseason Targets: Right-Shot Forwards
Near the end of the regular season, Ducks’ General Manger Pat Verbeek specifically mentioned targeting two types of players he wanted to acquire this offseason: a right-shot top six forward, and a …

Groulx, Jones, Leason, Lundestrom, LaCombe, Lindstrom, Vaakanainen, McLaughlin, Nesterenko, Regenda, and Tracey are all RFAs.

LaCombe, Vaakanainen, Nesterenko, Lundestrom should be qualified. The rest…meh
No chance lundy gets qualified imo. He’s the exact type of player verbeek is hinting at when he says we need to upgrade the bottom 6 with more grit size and skill

I have a feeling we’re gonna land two of the big fish but we may not like the contracts at face value

Is it bad that I'm hoping Tampa pulls this off so the our chances at Stamkos improve?
I think we're looking at more of 3x9 mill or so.
My general feeling is that when a poster says "book it" and then it doesn't happen, the poster should be banned for 30 days. But we'll see about Stamkos...
1 short term RW (2 years max) and 1 longer term RHD (5-6 years) please! We have Colangelo and Sennecke who might be ready in the next year or two (maybe 3 years for Sennecke). Vatrano has a year left, Strome and Killorn have 3 left, Strome the only one that's a RW though. Luneau, Hinds, and Solberg should be ready in the next 1-3 years.
Forward is easier to accommodate, Strome can play 4C for a year if Colangelo plays his way into the lineup. Sennecke won't be here full time for at least 2 years probably. There would be 1 year where Luneau is struggling to get minutes until Fowler/Gudas are FA'S unless Fowler or LaCombe are moved (if he plays that well). There will also be injuries for extra minutes for those guys.

No way he’s signing that low

Yeah, or that short.
I honestly would love to get Stamkos on like a 3 year contract. But I think Nashville will beat us to the punch and offer longer term.

In a perfect world
Marchessault on a 3 year deal
Roy on a 5 year deal
A penalty killing 3/4c
- trade gibson
I’d go high money low term… but I imagine Nashville will give him term and good money
