Rumor: 23-24 Trade Rumors and Free Agency Part Trois: The Road to the Deadline

[expatriatedtexan]

Shit...we're getting Jost back aren't we?

Someone's EX

 

[hockeyfish]

I had to look it up. Yes, the Avalanche do infact have an AGM.

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

EJs coming home!!!

 

[NateTheGreat]

Hopefully Girard has a good game.

Fixed

There's a guy "AntiAnalytics" on CF GM who absolutely insists mittelstadt isn't getting traded. I hope we trade for him, just to spite this guy.

 

[JLo217]

Mitts plz

This reminds me of a very annoying Sabres fan that used to be around HF like 4-5 years ago...his name was TheJackAttack.

They wouldn't want G. He can't play the right side.

Stick my nuts in icy salt water if CMac pulls of MacFarland

I asked who their AGM might be scouting, here's his response.

Tough to say
Byram might be a possibility, but we need Right shot defensemen, not left
Colton maybe? We could use a decent 2way Center

Not really sure who else u guys have that would make sense for us
Manson would be an obvious fit if he weren’t so old


Would Manson waive, if he knew it help would get us mittelstadt?

 

[GoNordiquesGo]

Where did you create this cap space?

I didn't do the exact math but the idea is that RyJo must be shipped in one of the trades and you will need to pay Byram + to get Guentzel. The rest should be workable with retention.

Bura did exactly what we needed him to do - provide secondary scoring and creating opportunities out of nothing, but the rest of his game was worse than Drouin's which is why Bura only played 15-16 minutes a game.

I'd still take Bura for the cup run, but if I needed a top 6 winger i'd easily take Drouin.

Bura was also good at getting the puck in the zone’s

Buffalo is probably scouting the canucks who are super active this year +shrugs+

They’ll trade Ian Cole for Mittelstadt and Dahlin

What now?

What now?

Exactly

On another note, I'm surprised (at myself as well) that Granlund's name hasn't come up more. SJ is also a place that would probably be willing to take on Johansen as well, so in effect you can go from Johansen to Granlund for 1M/more per season. I'd assume at least a 1st would have to be included.

He's not perfect but he's kind of a Stastny-like player that would probably look good between the 2 towers of Nuke and Rants. Maybe another Finnish brethren would get Rants head on straight.

SJ has a few other pieces that we could benefit from too, like Sturm for example.

I mentioned him awhile back, people didn't like it.

All I'm gonna say is that his 2yrs remaining lines up perfectly with Ritchie stepping in to be the 2C (because you just KNOW that is exactly what management is banking on)

I wouldn't re-sign Drouin for over 3M x 3. Good luck having this kind of success elsewhere. To me his NHL future is pretty much Colorado or bust, so he should come in at a friendly number.

Just take in a few San Jose games… you’ll see why very quickly.

Can we get this guy from MassMutual to be our backup. I like the way he thinks... No goals.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

I can’t wait for the inevitable useless former Blue Jacket addition at the deadline

 

[BobRossColton]

Jenner wants to help his team?
He can do that in the long game, get some playoff hockey the next few years, he gets his team assets, and he then re-signs with Columbus at the end of his current contract as the grizzled playoff veteran

Danforth it is.

I don't know why they keep scouting Roslovic, they already know he's their man

Well if it was for him it worked...
