First thing I thought of as well. See ya, Cole.

Hopefully he's packaged with another asset for a significant return. I don't see Cole bringing back anything of real value.
I dunno. Pending UFA yes, but tough, hard-nosed D men who will sacrifice the body and played a crucial role in his team winning back-to-back cups probably has value

If Cole gets traded, Oleksiak is the clear replacement for him. I actually really like that trade, especially for that cost. That's a good move for Rutherford.

Well, he's kind of at a similar point in his career that Cole was when we acquired him, but I was never a fan of his even when he was a prospect. But there's some upside there.

This guy doesn't have to be very good to become the 3rd best LD on this team.

I think Cole's value can be two things, Cole the rental and Cole the trade and sign. If someone sees him as a 4D and re-signs him I think his value could be fairly high. Even so, I assume he’d be part of a package and that 1st better be f***ing protected.

Laying the ground work for some bigger moves I take it. I don’t mind Oleksiak and that’s cheap.

Heard rumor that a deal that may shake the pens and fans to their core might occur. What is the policy about rumors from people who work in the industry?

Now that’s intriguing. Spill the beans, please.
