GDT: Let the Free Agency Madness begin

[Brock Anton]

Slavin - Burns
Orlov - Karlsson
Chatfield - TDA

Pesce & Skjei traded for assets to help us land a top forward?

3 of our top 5 scorers would be defensemen.

 

[Stickpucker]

Pesce for Nylander
Trade for Karlsson retained
Tarasenko joins his comrades.
Skjei for futures

Team becomes a cheat code.

 

[chaz4hockey]

That seems like a lot for Orlov? Is he really a 7.75 mill defensemen?

Imagine Skjei might be moved out now?

Orlov needs to take out Staal, Antii, Freddie to the Angus Barn for contributing to his deal through team friendly transactions.

Sorry to see Patches go to DC but I really like the Orlov deal.

Btw: canes becoming a Russian and Finnish organization. Damn good hickey players from those countries.

f***ing christ that would be ridiculous if we could pull that off

We need the highest scoring defense in nhl history!!!

Statbois....who is it currently from a goal and then total point perspective?

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

MaxPac Gonzo

I woulda done that, depending on other moves

 

[Stickpucker]

BORG WE NEED NYLANDER AND TANK!

ADD 2 40GMEN

 

[CandyCanes]

f***ing christ that would be ridiculous if we could pull that off

My only thought is TDA is kinda pointless as he wouldn’t have a spot to QB a power play lol.

 

[RibFrabcus]

who tf knows how it shakes out but Orlov is a really good get

 

[Ole Gil]

It's not borderline, he's a 1D and has been for awhile.

Yup, was getting the same TOI as McCavoy and Lindholm in Boston.

 

[Lempo]

We couldn't do this?

Optics, I guess. We lost a season due to Pacioretty being a dud.

 

[Zezima]

would love it if the legendary pesce for Nylander trade actually happened

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

the real story is crazier than @Unsustainable 's

 

[SvechneJerk]

Slavin - Burns
Orlov - Karlsson
Chatfield - TDA

Pesce & Skjei traded for assets to help us land a top forward?

***IF*** that were to happen, Morrow might be tripping over himself to play here next here to play in that lineup.

 

[Lempo]

May be we don't do that now.

 

[CandyCanes]

Same.

 

[User13452]

Carolina got a advantage with so much cap if guys wanna take lower term and higher aav which seems like what’s happening

 

[TheOllieC]

Slavin - Burns
Orlov - Karlsson
Chatfield - TDA

Pesce & Skjei traded for assets to help us land a top forward?

Who even needs forwards with those offensive Dmen. Goodness.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

we likely gave Patches more guaranteed money but no Bonus money. We likely do not want to carry cap to cover his bonuses this season and definitely dont want to carry his bonuses next year. Capitals dont care.

 

[Brock Anton]

I’ve been against the EK stuff from the start, but f*** it. All of Burns, EK and TDA would both raise our collective blood pressure but at the same time be fun as f***.

 

[WreckingCrew]

Bit pricey on Orlov but great term and we can afford it.

I think now you re-sign Peace given Burns gone in 2 yrs and Morrow unknown. Sell high on Skjei for assets. Nikishin replaces Orlov in 2 yrs. Sign a scorer. We could still do TDA but not necessary.

Slavin-Burns
Orlov-Pesce
Chatty-TDA-UFA

 

[Sigurd]

He's legit, and our top 4 on defense is stupid

Patches to Washington

Love those comments from JFresh about Orlov. Sounds like a great player even with our stacked blue line.

Slavin - Burns
Orlov - Karlsson
Chatfield - TDA

Pesce & Skjei traded for assets to help us land a top forward?

That sounds f***ing amazing, and especially if we can trade one of, or both of Pesce and Skjei to get a legit top 6 forward that provides much needed offense.

 

[Brock Anton]

May be we don't do that now.

LeBrun said it’s still going through on 7/9.

 

[Chrispy]

If skjei brings scoring power and we keep pesce so be it


We couldn't do this?

Im guessing the bonus was the sticking point. If they max out cap this year and Patches hits the bonuses, they roll over to next years cap when the hard decisions happen.

 

[Stickpucker]

THIS JUST IN....

THE BORG LIKES THEIR BACK END ##JUICY!!
