[Sens Vader]

what would it take?

Guaranteed more than you would like to pay. Canes biggest needs are goaltending and scoring, they aren't trading away their best scorer.

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

ottawa would like the fit, but not the price.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Do you have a young, 30g scoring forward or a young C with #1C potential you are willing to offer? If not, there's no incentive for the Canes to move Skinner.

 

[Legend123]

i would assume stone or Ceci and Brown?

 

[Stickpucker]

Not happening, thanks for getting us all drunkd.

i would actually consider offering up colin white for skinner since he has term attached to him, unfortunately his contract is backloaded in actual dollars so it probably becomes a no go here

If you put your self in the Canes shoes, why would they take that though? They are trying to build off of last season and make the playoffs. You are offering up a recent draftee, who is still in college, never played a single professional game so is unproven and even if he hits his potential, likely won't help the team for 2-3 years. In return, you are asking for the Canes best forward.

I was talking more about a young NHL player that can contribute now, but that has that potential, not a prospect that is a couple years away.

Those are laughably bad.

It would cost more then we want. But man those are bad

OP: see it this way... Would you take Aho and a 1st fof Hoffman?

Aho, Slavin, and Hanifin are untouchable. That won't change until they show where they settle in. Similar to Ottawa with White, if I read that correctly. Too much potential there.

what's he's saying is, skinner ~ hoffman in value. we're in a similar spot as the hurricanes where we're trying to do better than last season.

why would we trade a proven offensive talent in a position of need for futures? it wouldn't make sense for us in his proposed hoffman trade and it doesn't make sense for the canes with skinner.

It was jus an example, not a proposal... just to tell him kinda what it would take to ory Skinner out of CAR

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

skinner is one hit away....

trust me hf

you do not want him

trust me

lol I doubt Carolina would ever do Skinner for Brown and Ceci.
As for Stone, yeah, Sens wont do it, but thats what they would ask I presume.

Dont see any deal involving Sens and Skinner

Real question is why would ottawa want skinner? Hoffman is better and isn't a Band aid.
To humor the OP.
Curtis Lazar + 1st round pick.

out of curiosity

what do you mean by "band aide"

you either do not know what a band aide is

or you are using it//them for the wrong purpose

this doesnt get you anywhere near skinner

cringeworthy.
lazar would be lucky to return a 2nd at this point, and the first isnt likely to yield a skinner like player unless its top 5 ish

 

[NyQuil]

We already have one concussion prone forward in MacArthur.

Done...no takebacks!

Thank you! I am glad someone has been paying attention. With his lengthy injury history and the need to eat all his pre-game meals with a straw, no way would the Sens take that cap dump contract. What if the Canes throw in a first round pick next year, would that get us Phanuff? We really need some more LHD.

Stone + Brown would be great value imo.

ok fair enough, i definitely agree a prospect is always more of a question mark, thats just white's projected upside so i wanted to see if i was in the ballpark value wise since i understood future 1C as a prospect

ottawa cant really trade a winger right now (most sens fans would say hoff and skinner are relatively close) and our future Center that can play now went to NYR. So unless you like pageau a bit too much i dont really see a deal here. Thanks for a reasonable response
