Line Combos: CBJ Roster Discussion/Line Combos/Injury Report

Pettersson doesn’t seem like a guy that will blossom in our not yet developed offensive system

The expected price? Do we have any idea what the real price is (genuine question)?

Would you make a small offer for him?

I think his trade value might be minimal. It's a high risk move.

I think the price is high. Our 1st (top 4 protected), Minnesota’s 1st, and a Russian. Might need to add a Luca to get it done.

A late 1st with a small plus seems reasonable to offer for a young defensive forward like Kakko. He doesn't have much offense but has consistently gotten good defensive results. The Rangers have done well with him on the ice. The draft status is kind of ancient history at this point.

Personally I think we do need more forwards like that. We especially currently need guys who can step in to the top six, and that is something I'm not sure if Kakko can do, I look more to guys like Maccelli as good pickups that might blossom in the ice time we can offer this year. But long term we have a need for strong Kakko types too.

I doubt we need Maccelli but Kakko would be good. Also he has offense potential. But NYR would want too much for him.

I think the Jackets should target Panarin. He would fit right into the hole left by Gaudreau. We have the cap space to fit him without retention.

He liked Columbus well enough but dreamt of playing in New York. He has done that. Plus, he would fit in very well with the other Russians on the team.

Not sure he waives for any team, he’s kinda set in NY
