Washington seem like a potential landing spot for Chychrun.

TVR and Hendrix Lapierre/pick? We’d at least get a legit 2nd pair guy with TVR, but for only a year.

Chychrun for Ekblad, make it happen!

I was thinking TVR and Connor McMichael. Think they probably want to keep Lapierre after being named Calder Cup Playoff MVP.

Chychrun is a Florida guy so he’d probably re-sign. Problem is Ekbblad makes too much for what he is now and will probably want a big contract after next year too.

If we took on all of Ekblad's salary, could we get him for something like our 2025 2nd+3rd?

 

[Gil Gunderson]

What are the odds we’re not on his 12-team NTC or he’d waive for us?

If we can sign Ullmark for 7M x 5YRs, we should do it now.

Gotta think this number helps with Ullmark negotiations when they get there. Years are a lot though.

I said it earlier in one of these threads - Nashville is a very conservative team when it comes to goaltending. They didn't move on from Vokoun/Ellis/Mason until Rinne was ready to take the reigns. They didn't move on from Rinne until Saros was ready to take the reigns. It would not surprise me at all if they decide to platoon Saros and Askarov, and then move Saros in a few years when Askarov is ready to take over.

Ekblad is breaking down and will want the massive contract next year.

if saros gets 7's we should be getting ullmark in the 6's at most.

saros has three straight years of 60+ games.

That’s true, but what RD doesn’t come with risk at this point, other than maybe Matt Roy? We’d all love Chris Tanev, but even he’s turning 35 during the season and his body has been through hell over the years.

Bruce mentioned the Panthers are one of the teams talking about Chychrun. I wouldn’t be surprised if Staios inquired about Ekblad.

 

[Hale The Villain]

Saros is getting almost 8M.

And you're putting way too much emphasis on games played.

Maybe Greig could get us Tanev from Seattle. I think they would probably have to add though.

 

[BondraTime]

I say this with absolutely no malice, but has anything Pagnotta talked about led anywhere?

I’ve seen like 10 rumours a day from him for the past year

Genuinely can’t remember the last time he broke something

Probably need to send our 39th overall as well

He's been first or right about stuff before in previous years, but I can't remember a specific thing.

He is not associated with either Rogers or Bell, so I think that sometimes factors in with how these guys go about their reporting. The legit top tier professional guys have to manage relationships more because access is important to their prime gigs.

The third party guys can just shoot their load everywhere because it's not like they have to worry about a GM or player not wanting to interact with them on TV or whatever.

At least, that's my theory.

I think Ekblad was always the odd man out regardless.

I'd do it if Norris is healthy, since Greig would be buried in the lineup. Tanev could bring physicality to the 13th forward spot, and Greig is due for a huge raise next year so it's a good cap move.
