24/25 Waivers/Rumors/TDL Thread.

Husso is a free agent after this season. His cap space can only be used in a trade this season

Ah right. Thank you.

Maybe our coaching ruined them.

Maybe it's Maybelline

I will say without a moment of hesitation that Lalonde has been the #1 mistake made by Yzerman…Nothing comes close…Lalonde was f***ing terrible.

Maybe but his free agent signings have been dogshit too. Aside from Kane. He is basically the only one that has been good. Everyone else is mediocre to God awful.

Rantanen come on down!

Rantanen come on down!

not gonna lie it’s been floating around in my head.

then again I’ve been very depressed today and not myself.

Na I think the whole moving walman debacle was cause he was planning on adding trouba and that fell through

Never made sense to be in such a rush to move walman you had to attach a 2nd. We never should have wasted a 2nd on moving him,if anything we should have got a 2nd or at the least a 3rd

We could have used his offense on the back end this year if anything he could have been involved in a deal for another defender. Anyways nothing we can do about that trade now I just think moving maata was the best for the team as it gave Johansson the chance to shine

Who knows what might of happened if he stayed? Just use the 3rd we got for maata in a deal for another dman now. Faster the better

Edvinsson would have stayed down, and not promoted up until Määttä is traded.

And Johansson proably lost on waivers.

So, both moves enabled pretty good things happening. Ed did play from game1 and Johansson stayed as extra. Got his chance after Määttä was gone. We got a 3rd pick. And the circle went around, we got a pick for a lost pick (Walman). And that lost pick was get from Gibson <> Kiiskinen + 2nd as extra.

All in all, our kids took the roster spots.

Maybe everybody understands now and can stop the damn whining.

A whole lot of TBD. But I have no idea how the Hurricanes made that trade without more confidence that Rantanen would extend in Carolina.

Could Rantanen be on the move again? - Video - TSN

Bryan Hayes, Jeff O’Neill and Jamie McLennan are joined by TSN Hockey Insider Chris Johnston to discuss the Carolina Hurricanes acquiring Mikko Rantanen without a guaranteed extension and could the former Colorado Avalanche be on the move prior to the trade deadline if they can’t reach a new deal.

Theres no way Johansson would have been on waivers, he was one of our better dmen in g.r and yzerman wouldnt have exposed him

Edvinsson would have been up regardless. Maata's deal gave Johansson more of an opening. If walman stayed gustafsson wouldnt have been signed

People were saying the maata trade was a mistake and I simply said it wasn't and opened up a spot for johansson and losing walman and a 2nd was the bad move

You dont agree? Cool ... I'd rather have had walman + kept the 2nd and not have gustafsson

 

[Henkka]

At least Walman has higher Goals against numbers at San Jose vs. any of our current "bad" (Gustafsson, Petry, Holl) defenceman, so maybe someone would like to have a worse team.

He was just carried by Seider.

Countdown to TradeCentre: Big changes coming for Boston Bruins? | TSN

The NHL's March 7 Trade Deadline is approaching, and teams are making decisions on whether to buy or sell, and on which players can make the biggest difference and hold the greatest value. Check out today's trade rumours and speculation from around the NHL beat.

Now that I see there is a source mentioning the name and I'm not just making it up, I once again ask would it would cost to bring in Morgan Geekie?

I see now that he is listed as left winger with Zacha and Pastrnak, but has also taken a lot of face offs. I'm looking at him as center depth in the short term and an undervalued player in the long term if he works out and re-signs

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

SY, just don't spend assets or cap space on non medium to longterm players.. we dont need anyone over 30..if the guy won't help in 2028 than nevermind
