Speculation: 2026-27 Trade/FA thread/Roster Thread - Waiting for the SCF to be over….

Byram getting 12.5 is just stupid. He isn't even good.

Everyone's picks being moved around like a hot potato

I think that tells you a little about how this draft is perceived. No one was moving picks so easily in 03 or 23.

San Jose's development of defensemen has been ass. I'm not worried about them yet.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but the Ducks have exactly 2 legit NHL D on the roster right now and only one of them has a contract.

This guy is a Chel YouTuber based in Chicago who has broken some news involving the Blackhawaks before (notice he tweeted the eyes emoji 3 minutes before Friedman broke the trade). He seems to believe that Byram will extend with the Hawks for 7 years at $12.5M per year, which might be one of the worst deals I've ever seen.

Fake news from Lucas.

Why does San Jose get such good luck all the time

 

[Static]

I'm betting they are signing tuch as well

It's also interesting how Misa is assumed to be another star. I mean he could, but he could also top out as a 60 point guy - there are some very cursory and rote aspects of his game.

 

[Leo2Cutter]

got to be more going with byram? lol 4th for byram seems eeeeh

 

[Rasp]

These trades are nuts. So many over pays for players

Im not super high on Misa tbh.... i think he kinda caps off as a solid 2c (which is more than fine for san jose)

4th overall and a massive extension for BOWEN BYRAM? The Andersson extension in Vegas ain't looking half bad right now.

I think it says a lot about the draft tbh.... teams feel like its really weak.

NOT THE 18th PICK THO !

[Leo2Cutter]

Byram for 4th another pick and a player?

LOL im dying

[Rasp]

I think we are getting pick 1 for McTavish at this rate

 

[AngelDuck]

This is one of the most insane days that is non-draft day/non-trade deadline day/non-July1st in NHL history

 

[Leo2Cutter]

LOL buffalo GM so shocked that he got that deal done... he was like screw it let me make a 2nd deal with this idiot.

I feel like it has to be the rights to tuch right?

 

[The Duck Knight]

Hellebuyck for 4?

 

[Static]

 

[AngelDuck]

Buffalo is going to be a wagon next year. Good for them.

 

[All Mighty]

Might be one of the worst trades I've ever seen.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Sure I guess we'll take fourth overall off their hands

 

[Leo2Cutter]

Okay real talk... we need to sign Carlsson before Davidson gets his hands on bedards contract.

Hes going to screw us over
