Dreger: Blue Jackets "not done" yet

[Natey]

Can we offer you a nice Marleau or Zaitsev in this trying time?

If you give me Johnson

 

[SI90]

not saying Jackets aren't a good team but i doubt anyone is really scared of the Blue jackets and their zero playoff series wins under Torts. The top dogs in the east still remain Tampa, WSH, BOS, TOR and I'd even put Isles on there before CBJ.

I was making a joke referencing what he said about Panarin

 

[Calad]

I'm going to laugh so hard if they load-up, don't trade Panarin, and they lose in the first round. I like how aggressive Jaro is being to improve his team, but holding onto Panarin is non-sensical if he has made it clear he won't re-sign.

I mean he's a rental in essence

 

[Fatty McLardy]

Hoffman and Brassard + for Pananarama & Bob?

that's not really loading up, that's more like unloading

 

[Royale With Cheese]

Why is Panarin called Bread?

Help me out here someone.

Why is Panarin called Bread?

Pan is bread in Spanish and Italian

Panarin sounds like Panera

It's a play on Panera Bread, which is a restaurant in the US.

 

[EdAVSfan]

Going to be super difficult.

They wouldn’t be able to trade either of the 1sts in 2019 and 2020.

not sure if you’re joking but...

Panera Bread (food chain) = Panarin “bread”

 

[Connor McConnor]

If he can somehow flip Panarin for Huberdeau and then resign Duchene that is a pretty decent top 6 moving forward with a norris candidate Dman and blue chip d prospect still on the roster long term.

You can somehow flip Panarin for Huberdeau...by adding Werenski.

 

[CupInSIX]

They're not flipping Duchene for a better return than Ottawa got, right?

Thanks. Definitely wasn't joking, I don't live in the US.

 

[danielpalfredsson]

Just a note, Hoffman and Duchene have wicked chemistry....

 

[Viqsi]

What trade chips do they really have though for a big move?

Lots. Part of why we took that futures hit is because we have a very nicely stacked pool - no runaway star types, but lots of very promising looking guys.

That said, I wouldn't expect much more.

The funny thing is, we might actually consider Marleau, if offered for cheap - we could use a LW.

Zaitsev, of course, remains a "nope, no way no how, go away".

Wenneberg?

Possible.

Well, we haven't really given anyone a reason to fear us yet. Obviously that's going to have to change first.

But we now have two high-octane weapons each at both C and D. That helps a lot.

Depends on the price, but I'd consider it.

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

I mean the Duchene trade just speaks that they're going all in. But I think the smart thing would have been to trade Bob and Panarin, but for all we know JK didn't get offers that he claimed was good enough.

But anyway now that Duchene is in Columbus, my guess is that Columbus goes after Henrique.

Kind of wanted Carolina to make the playoffs though... because I want to see Don Cherry's reaction.

Nor do I...

 

[I am not exposed]

Thanks. Definitely wasn't joking, I don't live in the US.

Thanks for asking. I didn't know either haha

 

[Gh24]

Why is it when we get these "not done yet" posts after a big trade, almost nothing happens?

"Nashville not done"
*McLeod for 7th*

 

[ottawa]

Toronto would have to page their 1st with either one of those guys

Yeah, I'd be surprised if they don't have something in the works with Panarin. If they think they have a chance of re-signing Duchene, then they trade Panarin, replenishing what they gave up for Duchene they are in better shape long term. I just can't see a team on the bubble willing to lose 3 high-end UFA's for a single playoff push.

 

[LoveCBJ]

Jarmo has now set the price for Panarin. If you want him, come with your best offers, if not, we keep him.

 

[Lion Hound]

I feel this same title follows every confirmed trade thread...

"(Insert team name here) Is not done yet!"
