NHL: Around the League 53

Offer Jones + Hawks 2026 1st (Top 3 protected)

Nucks have wanted a top RD for a while who can move puck

If they don't want that deal well then, we simply aren't a match

Man what absolutely sucks the most about Jones is that NMC. I think he only accepts Dallas and other big US cities who are also contenders...

True

On flipside it's easier to sell Vancouver to a US player I imagine than rest of Canada

No thanks to EP40. He seems like he has a terrible attitude and is a part of the problem on that squad, not part of a solution. They were an exciting team on the upswing last year, they probably would’ve beaten Edmonton had they had healthy goaltending.

I haven’t followed too closely but that team as a whole outside of Q. Hughes seems like they’re less than the sum of their parts.

Pettersson seems too apathetic and I hated his post game interviews during the playoffs when he was questioned on why he was playing so poorly. Maybe he’s injured I don’t know but he had 24 points in his last 30 games to close out the 23/34 season, 6 points in 13 playoff games last year, and 28 in 34 this season.

Personally, something stinks with him and I’d rather pass.

For the cost I don’t have the slightest interest in EP.

Rather they take the changes on a big UFA that only costs money. If they all happen to get extended or have no interest in coming here then figure out a different plan.

Necas after his torrid start has slowed down

1 assist in last 8 games

If I was Canes I would be in no rush to talk contract. The 2nd half of this season + playoffs will decide his future in Carolina

I’m glad the Stars got fined for that stupid “optional” practice. DeBoer is a jackass.

That practice gave them an edge to kill us last game. I think it’s only fair we get their second round pick in 2026.

Just a 2nd?

Make that a 1st + 2nd

I thought he got his contract. Was like 8 million a year with a deferred year iirc

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

He got 2-year deal that sees him as UFA in summer of 2026

So this summer he will be looking for big $ longterm extension

I am saying if I was Canes there would be no preliminary feeling out stuff (As we know goes on) and wait to see how 2nd half/playoffs go before deciding on his future

If he falters you look to trade him at draft

Think that was Jarvis, Necas is up next year

You’re right I was mistaken.

This guy needs his teeth fed to him.

Hopefully Trenin got him good

Slew foot is the dirtiest play in hockey.

Isn't that the same piece of shit who injured Colton Dach? I know he's been suspended multiple times dating back to junior. That scumbag needs to be out the league.

Yup, that’s the sucker punch guy

 

[Pez68]

Guys like that just need to be ended. A nice flying elbow or a crosscheck up high. A big leaping charging penalty. Players who have no respect for their opposition deserve no respect in return.

Limited sample size but Kakko has looked good for Seattle

"Never called around the league": NHL insider Frank Seravalli offers new insight into Red Wings' trade to Sharks involving $10.2M defenseman

San Jose Sharks defenseman Jake Walman was traded this offseason from the Detroit Red Wings along with a 2024 second-round draft pick.

www.sportskeeda.com

There were teams that would’ve paid less or some would’ve even considered taking on Walman for free, I’m told, had Steve Yzerman put in the work and made the phone calls.

Walman has 5 goals and 20 assists thru 31 games for Sharks
