Confirmed Trade: [NSH/COL] Ondrej Pavel and 2027 3rd for Juuso Parssinen and 2026 6th

[Soundgarden]

Is Parssinen any good?

Sigh* yes. Congrats Avs fans.

Nashville recalled Vinny Hinostroza to replace Juuso Parssinen‘s place on the Preds roster.

Of course we called up Hinostroza instead of keeping Parisian, he's over 30 and a career AHLer.

 

[Some Other Flame]

Trotz is doing an incredible job showing why coaches shouldn't become GM's

 

[Cypher]

This is just a ploy to get all the Fins and entice Mikko to re-sign. Plus the Avs have back-to-back games with Finnish hat-tricks.

 

[ClydeLee]

Thought the Preds were getting the old goalie at first. More of the, I don't know what the Preds plan has been since before Poile

 

[forever1922]

Pärssinen under Rantanen's and Lehkonen's wings will be the best spot for him to succeed. Easy to like it for Avs.

 

[LokiDog]

Parsinen is going to be great in Colorado. Liked him in Nashville and definitely see Preds fans looking back on this with more resentment for Trotz. Fabbro, Tomasino, Carrier, Parsinen. Guy’s clueless.

Maybe they can all be paired together. We’d be able to cross the Finnish Line

 

[dirtydanglez]

really interesting to see the preds trade away so many young guys. i get they got pavel back in the deal but im not sure he ever plays in the nhl.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Trotz strikes again!

Preds fans:

Pretty sure this also means I'm entitled to dinner with Sanna Marin

 

[Turin]

Barry doesn't have a plan.

McDonagh, Tomasino, Fabro, Parssinen, Askarov, Wedgewood, Glass (paid to get rid of him) gone and you don't resign Sherwood, and all you get back are some prospects/picks while you sign old expensive guys in FA.

 

[MNRube]

If I’m a GM, I’m calling Trotz daily and buttering him up. Dear lord, the man is a butcher

 

[landstuhltaylor]

Sounds like good depth and size to be that much harder to play against in the post-season. Haven't seen CMac with this much swagger since 2022.

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

There is literally nothing to be excited about or look forward to as a Preds fan at this point. Old, soft, underachieving team with a bunch of NMCs and anyone we looked forward to getting dealt for table scraps. Can't wait to see what career-AHL shit and 2027/2028 picks we eventually get for Evangelista and L'Heureux.

 

[AintLifeGrand]

Parsinnen becomes a 60-70 pt guy(if playing with good supporting cast) for the avs easy… kind of like a poor mans Anton Lundell

 

[dirtydanglez]

so i guess that makes evangelista then next move.

 

[Soundgarden]

Probably Novak. I doubt he moves Evangelista.

[Forsbergaura21]

If I’m the owner of the Preds I quickly tell Trotz he is not allowed to trade for all of 2025…what a nut job

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

IDK what Trotz trying accomplish.

So much for the so called top tier prospect pool

The quicker they get rid of the Gm the better, but with the way Nashville deals he’ll have a long long leash

 

[ThirdPeriodTurtle]

My first reaction was WTF Palat is a New Jersey Devil.

This is honestly how my brain still interprets this trade and it's been 5 minutes. Palat for Pärssinen would kind of make some sense for both teams. Sadly one of those teams is not part of this trade.

I mean we still have Molendyk, L'Hereux, Kemell, Wood, Svechkov, Surin, Schaefer, Edstrom, from the first round and three 1sts + two 2nds this year.

 

[NOTENOUGHRYJOTHINGS]

If this guy plays more than 50 cumulative minutes in the playoffs I'll punch myself in the crotch.

 

[Marlowe Syn]

Is this guy any good or should I just continue drinking?

Yes
