I think very likely he will be with Vegas.
Canucks already said they arent moving their big pieces ( Hoglander, 1st 2025, lekky, Willander) for a rental.
I think the Canucks called up Podkolzin this week to showcase him.
Canucks likely best offer for Geuntzel is:
Podkolzin, 1st 2025, 3rd round pick
with a high chance of an extension for JG.
Then you're not getting Jake Guentzel.
Again, for the millionth time, why do Canucks fans seriously think the Canucks are the only team interested in Guentzel? Every Guentzel thread for the last month has been Canucks fans making bad offers and trying to convince Penguins fans that the offers aren't bad. If the Canucks are going to try to be cheap and not be willing to trade any of their big pieces for Guentzel, they will simply be out-bid by other teams. This isn't "I want an unrealistic return for Guentzel", it's realizing that other teams simply have better assets that they'd be willing to trade.
Carolina gives up two A prospects for a rental but the other teams give up scraps?
I think you're severely overrating Carolina's pieces if you think that is accurate.
I like Nadeau, but he's not even the best prospect of that group there. Samoskevich probably is.
