Would have to be a mutual contract termination, if that's what you're thinking. Like with Brandan Saad. Can't do buyouts in the middle of the season.

Yes, that would be the correct terminology that I was speaking of. Then off to Vegas Taylor Hall goes just like Saad.

This is such interesting wording. The fit hasn't looked great. Is this a deal like a trade? Or a contract termination?
If it's an extension, I'd be really surprised.

Strickland is just a bad communicator. I figured he meant contract extension. If he comes really cheap, that perfectly fits with what the Hurricanes want to do.

Kind of weird for either party to prioritize an extension right now IMO.

You'd have to think management would have those conversations with his agent, at the very least this off-season...if they feel the need to move on from both Demko and EP, you'd have to think they are reaching complete tear down mode and Hughes will likely prefer to use his years productively and the team would likely try to extract as much value as possible rather than lose him for nothing. If you can retain on his salary for his final 2 years you can probably get a very tidy haul. Obviously this isn't a desired outcome, but its a possible one.

Mikko Rantanen trade destinations: Could Canucks enter mega-sweepstakes?
If you posited the notion Mikko Rantanen could be swapped twice in-season, somebody would worry you’d stopped wearing your helmet at beer league. But with his name entering trade discussions again, Ryan Dixon looks at some possible proposals for the Finnish superstar.
Canucks are involved in both proposals.

so...they arent going to be able to re-sign rantanen..to make up for it they are re-signing the cap dump they got in the deal to save face?

Vancouver’s participation in a Rantanen trade only makes sense if they are flipping him on to another team. I don’t see wanting to sign long-term in Vancouver.Mikko Rantanen trade destinations: Could Canucks enter mega-sweepstakes?

Those are gross, especially the second one. Good Lord. Someone needs to put down NHL 25.

But it's just fantasy.
Inside everyone there are two wolves moderating a forum...
i think a lot of us can be frustrated with work, i think having 8M usually soothes over some tension

And what exactly do you expect Quinn to say? No UFA in 2027 is gonna give you a straight answer.

Rantanen will be getting paid 14 million from ages 33-37.
As a win now for Carolina sure... for us idk better start thinking about the possibility of being able to unload contracts and players
I have zero interest in a deadline deal for Rantanen
As a UFA I guess we could look at a couple ways. Sign Rantanen get Pettersson a winger
Instead of Boeser ages 32-35 you have a better player and you also get someone to deflect away from the 11.6 deal

I have no idea what to think of both deals but I don't think HF servers would be able to handle it.

I see about a 10% chance that he stays here, a 20% chance he asks for a trade, and a 70% chance he walks to go play with his brothers in NJ.
