Speculation: 2024-25 - Free Agency/Trade Thread

Could PV be more tempted to retain on Gibson now?
The landscape for Gibson might have changed. Earlier this week I was listening to the NHL guys on Sirius and they were basically saying that the Ducks could get a ton for Gibson from a team that needs a goalie (Carolina seemed to be the target they were talking about). IMO the Ducks don't need to (and don't want to) retain on Gibson to get a good deal IF IF IF they even want to trade him now. The cap going up also means that other teams will be more easily able to fit the final two years of Gibson's contract into their budget. Another reason that retention most likely isn't on the table.
 
Don't get the dooming talk. Big UFAs weren't going to sign here unless it was ludicrous money and we can still take advantage of a cap-strapped team this TDL.

Don't think Verbeek wants to be a buyer beyond this year anyway.
 


It appears EP (for now) is the winner in the power struggle. Will be fascinated to see what the return is

Hilarious that the Rangers' plan to improve the season/morale is to trade away a guy who was beloved in the locker room (Trouba) and acquire a guy who causes problems everywhere he goes
