Dropping like flies
I'm not convinced all these injuries are actually injuries. Maybe they're dinged up, but some of them are being held out for trade purposes

They look more like they're re-tooling than selling, and Buch is young enough to be a part of that...no reason to sell without a massive overpay on that contract (though I would love to get him). Same with Forsberg, Nashville just resigned him and has no reason to sell unless they're doing a total tank.Or St. Louis for Buchnevich IMO. Heavy LW who is over ppg for the past 115 games. Signed through 2024-25 for $5.8 million.

Off the radar once more..lurking in the shadows
I would think Week to week is more indicative of a real injury versus that usual day to day. Could hurt the ability to move Henrique.I'm not convinced all these injuries are actually injuries. Maybe they're dinged up, but some of them are being held out for trade purposes
I know im late but here are some different advanced stats for Schmaltz
“then we shoot a balloon”We are there, we just are the F-22 Stealth team. Everybody looking over their shoulder for us to see what we do with our shot....
....then we shoot a balloon.
That would be a substantial let down considering the cap space and the pronouncements made by the owner.Adam Gold on the radio 30 min. ago. "Canes will probably trade for Craig Smith (with an adder) and might not do much else.

Craig Smith would be a fine press box addition. Carolina shouldn't do it without getting a 3rd minimum. It would not stop them from completing any other additions.Adam Gold on the radio 30 min. ago. "Canes will probably trade for Craig Smith (with an adder) and might not do much else.
Seems to fly in the face of what Friedman was saying about a "good offer" to the Sharks for Meier....unless the Sharks have since said they prefer another offer and we declined to match or better it.Adam Gold on the radio 30 min. ago.

Really wouldn't be a pressbox addition if we get another player. We'd be at 23 with him, so any other additions require someone to go to Chicago.Craig Smith would be a fine press box addition.

Its Adam Gold. He knows very little but exclaims a lot
Maybe he forgot to add today on the end of that.
We don’t leak information to anyone. Im not worried
I like Vrana as weaponization of cap space much more than getting a pick for Smith.Trading for Vrana encompasses the entire word cloud of the GMBC's philosophy. Elite sniper, distressed asset, weaponizing cap space, player with term, out of left field, etc. etc.
There have been more than a few times where I get into the car after a game and turn the postgame show on confused if he watched the same game that I just sat through in the arena. His perception is very often disconnected with reality, and he often talks down the hypothetical fans who disagree with him.Schmaltz is a guy that's been high on my target list for a while. My only minor concern is if he's a big fish in a small talent pond and could get lost a bit over here in a more complementary role. But I'm not overly worried about that.
Vrana would be interesting depending on the terms.
I think it's clear that Gold gets the occasional nugget of inside info, but most of what he says is garbage. I listen to his Canes podcast sometimes just for lack of Canes content, and man is he a moron on some things. And he's not above putting his weird opinions out as fact sometimes.
