Speculation: 2024/25 Trade Rumours, Speculation etc Thread

Top 4 RHDs are the hardest position to fill, and Pionk is without a doubt our best. Remember our D core when Trouba was traded, Buff retired, and Myers walked? It would be like that again with DeMelo-Miller-Salo down the right, with nothing in the pipeline. Pionk really seems to like Winnipeg, he gels with Samberg, why not pay the price?
Bookmark this post: Neal Pionk will re-sign with Winnipeg. I'd be gobsmacked if he didn't.
 
I may have been bitten by 4 mosquitos since I've been in Tampa. I got bitten 4k times last time I was in Winnipeg :P
Yeah, I've been to places in the U.S. that are as bad as Winnipeg but civilized/paved Florida is not among them. Though the likelihood of a fatal disease being vectored in Winnipeg is considerably less than in Florida, so from that perspective the 1000s of bites in Winnipeg present more annoyance but less lethality. :skeptic:

I would be more worried about being bitten by an alligator in Florida, to be honest... :sarcasm:

That's a crazy return for Bjorkstrand. Considering that he was traded to Seattle as a 28 goal scorer for a 3rd and 4th round pick.
Columbus really screwed up their end of the trade by putting themselves in a bad financial position. A good rental usually gets a 1st. Considering he has another year, it's more than fair IMO.

I’m still thinking Cozens could happen…I don’t know why but I keep going back to him…
I just dont think he moves the needle for where the team is at right now. A 24 year old thats still trying to find his game with zero playoff experience. Just not what Chevy is looking for IMO.

Same dude, I have had that feeling for a while and whilst not really something you would think Chevy would do before the TDL it does make sense, kid is young, still has high ceiling, will fill our 2C slot for a long time if risk pays off and on top of that has no trade protection.

Nelson I believe is going elsewhere.

He's a summer type deal imo. That way you have tc and the entire year to integrate him. It doesn't make sense for a playoff run.

from everything reported it seems it's all in on nelson and if we don't get nelson we look for more depth

That is what it appears to be. Will be interesting to see if we get him and if not where he goes.
 
The drop off from Nelson to the other C candidates (that we know about, publicly) being available is pretty steep.

I see Chevy circling the wagons and paying up to secure him as long as Lou isn't on Mars still trying to sign the guy.

Those Florida mosquitoes are surprisingly wimpy too. Tiny, frail Heinola mosquitoes, as opposed to the Byfuglien like mosquitoes we get here. Winnipeg's had a pretty good run when it comes to mosquitoes over the last decade, though...nowhere near as bad as it was in the 90s and before.
