2nd/Little

Faulk D
Aho F

Hurricanes needs Goaltending bad and there no better piece than Comrie for the future to be had at this time. He's now the toop guy on the Moose, Helly was the top guy last year but now he's the Jets starter. Comrie should be ready next year or even a backup this year for the Canes.

Rest of the pieces need no introduction.

About the worst possible deal for the Canes. Also, I wouldn't count on them being willing to trade after the game today.

What do the Canes need then?

After watching them last night they have major issues. Fix them.

Offering one of the most valuable pieces in a True starting goalie and going from there seems pretty fair; the last 2 pieces are where the adjustments are balanced.

We lost Little for a couple months and I'm sure when he returns it will be to soon and will be hurt again, it's the same story over and over with the Jets; so we need another Forward.

If I'm Carolina, I don't trade Faulk alone for that package.

Why would Carolina downgrade their D and F just to potentially upgrade their goaltending? Comrie is far from a sure thing, he has zero NHL experience thus far. Carolina is assuming all the risk in this proposal, and frankly, the reward isn't that great.

I somehow highly doubt the main goal of this trade was to fix the Canes issues. Jets get the best D, the best forward, but hey Canes get a maybe goalie for the longer term. You made them far worse in the short term, an added a goalie that's far from a sure thing. Goalies don't have anywhere near that value, especially unproven prospect goalies. No offense to Comrie who I've liked for a while.

^Not sure the Jets do that, sounds like they want a D, they've got a solid young group of forwards, and the swapping of 2nd's doesn't really have much purpose at this stage of the season.

But as a Jets fan maybe you would, who knows.

Nor is it yours, I'm trying to get someone to respond but only the HFBoards junkies that poopoo things are posting.

BTW Trouba for Aho is over payment but of course that's lost on you.

Anyway that's enough Trade fun for this thread from me, enjoy the rest of the poopooing.

Canes need scoring and have a strong young defense. If anything they would move a D for a F, not the other way around.

OP is awful, wouldn't do it for Faulk alone.

Connor and Trouba's rights for Faulk?
Actually I'm not sure why the Jets would be targeting Faulk since he's a RHD but I don't think the OP knew that

Yes, offering a true starting goalie would be appealing to the Canes. You didn't do that. You offered a guy with no NHL experience who might work out well, but is far from a sure thing. No reason for the Canes to downgrade their D and give up their top forward prospect for that. None.

As to the second proposal, the Canes have a good D already with more guys in the pipeline, but not much for top end forwards. So a F for D swap is the exact opposite of what they'd want to do.

Nice selective reading skills

Buddy no one is going to get you winning today, especially with Slavin doing snow angels late in the game and giving up goals, not even Price.

Absolutely awful proposals from a CAR perspective. We'd much prefer to keep the better d in Faulk and asking for Aho too??? Ridiculous...

CAR needs to fix their dumpster fire in net and work through some issues playing with the lead, but there's absolute no need to dump Faulk or Aho for a goalie fix or for an overrated malcontented d without a contract.

That flat out sucks. I wouldnt trade one of those players in the Canes package alone for their package, even if value favors Canes. They need offense and it doesnt really seem like they are getting any. And how is Comrie an upgrade at all. They already have Nedeljokvic, who is miles better. Awful proposal all around. If Faulk is traded, it would be for Marc Schiefele or Patrick Laine if Carolina even considers trading Faulk.

The Canes have a future goalie in Alex Nedelkovic already, no point trading for another one. Especially not at the price you're asking.

Buddy no one is going to get you winning today, especially with Slavin doing snow angels late in the game and giving up goals, not even Price.

The Canes were one of the best teams in the league in shot suppression last year, with Slavin being a major part of that. So yes, better goaltending would have them winning more today. League average save% would have made a big difference, let alone Price. Stop acting like the Canes are destined to tank this season away, they didn't do that last year. Even with awful goaltending they were a lot closer to the playoffs than to the bottom of the league. It was a bad proposal, accept it and move on.

Miles better? I understand that the trade sucks.... But Nedeljkovic is by no means "miles better", in fact I wouldn't say he's at all better. He's a good goalie prospect who's hype mostly comes from a single good year at WJC's.
