Speculation: 2025 Trade/Free Agency Thread (TDL is March 7th)

[Anaheim4ever]

I still will never forget when Arizona's GM said Soderstrom was Top 3 on their draft board and they traded up to draft him. Now he goes for a 6th lol.

Still waiting on the Vegas trade

Uhhh.. 45 mins ago (11:45 PT) Zegras posted an IG story with him walking down the hallway like he was leaving.

Why does this feel ominous??

GOD DAMNIT... Sharks got Ostapchuk... Sharks continue to kill it.

I was praying the Senators would be interested in Lundy/Leason/Fabbri. I wanted a young guns line of Cutter-Ostapchuk-Goalngelo

I’m a little surprised they gave up Zetterlund. He’s a really nice young player

Yeah, based on these current prices I'd would have thought a 1st would be involved.

Man, I was scouring the league for that big centerman who could win faceoffs and would likely be moved and really hoped we were in on Ostapchuk. But obviously Zetterlund was a big get for Ottawa.

Welp... I guess Verbeek slept in today.

Toronto is mismanaging this deadline once again

 

[TheGoodShepard1]

I can’t believe I’m still here. The HF IT teams are the big winners of deadline day because the site is still standing

It’s definitely a strange post by him. Let’s see

Funny how Carlo turned into Chris Pronger as soon as he became a Leaf. TSN is hilarious.

I’m going to go with “he’s a troll” and move on with my day.

Like I said, Vancouver is an absolute dumpster fire.

Cannot believe the Penguins are holding onto Rakell, just ludicrous

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Boston is really blowing it up. Their roster is now just Pasta, McAvoy and the declining Lindholms.

Maybe he means he was offered a lot and didn’t bite?

Gibson refreshing his search for his own name on Twitter:

Crazy that they're blowing it up after just signing Pasta to an 8 year deal

to be fair to Verbeek he just doesn't have much to work with this year, and for good reason. Fabbri injury was a nail in the coffin for that deal likely. Leason and Lundy don't have much value and don't necessarily need to be traded now. Gibson injury likely scares off buyers and is a hard deal to make regardless. and who knows what the deal really is with Z. the rest of the roster is practically all young players who shouldn't be traded.

the only vets on the team are Gudas (should be kept and traded next deadline situationally), Trouba (should be kept and traded next deadline situationally), Killorn (minimal value and term), Strome (term and should be kept since he can occasionally win faceoffs), and Vatrano (re-signed). Next year can be a decent deadline with Trouba and Gudas as potential pieces but this one was always going to be dependent on solely Dumo, Fabbri and Gibby really.

Does Pitt have any rentention slots left ?

It was time. They haven't been world beaters since Bergeron left and Marchand isn't getting any younger. Keep Pasta and McAvoy and go drafting. It's the only way forward.

A lot of teams just making moves just to tell their fan base they made moves.

Idiocy
