Around the League - 2024-2025 Part II

Rantanen isn't looking good without Nate .
Seems like they are having a hard time signing him , shocking.

Either sign him or go all in and keep adding. Need to win a SC if he walks for cap space.

that was filthy

Marner thinks he is worth $4+m more that this guy.

He is.

I think Marner really wants to stay but the Rantanen move could be a warning to him that a new situation could result in a big dropoff.

Sign Rantanen instead of Marner

Sign Rantanen instead of Marner

Have you seen his stats since going to Carolina.
Not very good.

Necas is matching the production for half the cap hit and looks a better fit for the Avs speed game. Think the Avs knew Rantanen goes as Mack goes. Shrewd move.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Carolina flip Rantanen before the TDL if he keeps trending this way and the team can't lock in an extension.

If I was a cup winning 100 point center, asking for big money in a rising cap world and got shipped to Carolina all of a sudden, I could see how that sudden change would tank my season.

Not very good.

They look like Marner's stats against Boston last year.

I'm not writing him off after 6 games after being traded.

This idea Rantanen was a biproduct of MacKinnon is crap. He has produced at a high level on the Avs without Mac as well as with him. He’s not gelling in Carolina yet, but it’s a small sample and a lot of guys struggle to adapt to mid season move, especially when blindsided by the trade.

 

[ToneDog]

He is.

LOL. I thought I was quoting the Makar highlight.
