Thatd be a tough draw for Marchment, downgrading from Florida to Dallas just before Florida won the cup, then downgrading to Carolina when Dallas has their best roster yet
If I’m Carolina that does not move the needle. Love Marchment but he’s not more than a complimentary guy and Stankoven hasn’t shown that much at the NHL level either.
 
The caterwauling is insane as far as the hockey world is considered when it comes to the Hurricanes. Necas only had one more season of team control and rumors were flying for years that he wanted to play elsewhere. The Canes made the best out of a difficult conundrum.
They dealt Necas for 10 games of Mikko Rantanen

That is not the best of a difficult conundrum

I think this deal ends up very underwhelming for Carolina. I also don't think it's Marchment, Dallas needs some checking type forwards.

Granlund seems like a Hurricanes type of player. I agree about Stankoven too
 
Said yesterday Robertson for an extended Rantanen makes the most sense for both Dallas and Carolina. Would not be shocked if that is the deal here.
Yeah i agree but Rantanen would have to be willing to sign right after for it to be worth it for Dallas. Just don’t think Dallas would give up a Red hot Robertson either and for Carolina I’m not sure Robertson would fit Rod the bods system well.

Pretty late for this to be coming out tonight, no? Hard to imagine it gets finalized/details get leaked this late.
The Agent will have all the info from Colorado/Carolina and what Rantanen wants. Should be pretty easy to get done if Rantanen/Stars want to do a long-term deal.

Whoever knew about the trade agreement in either organization leaked it (I’m guessing Rant’s agent). Carolina probably gave Dallas permission to talk to Rantanen, and they are probably talking extension before this wraps up. Trade call will probably be in the morning, there might not be anyone at NHL HQ to answer the phone.

Robertson also wouldn't make sense unless they don't think the player will age well but he's basically a Rantanen lite, not sure why would you go with the older guy in that scenario

I'd figure whether it's a sign and trade vs just a trade, the return for Carolina would be significantly different.

Damn this is late for a leak

i am guessing Wyatt Johnston, Oettinger, Heiskanen, Harley are not in this deal. I also doubt jason robertson is in this deal either

i doubt it's granlund as they just got him

this leaves any picks, stankoven, bichsel, bourque on the table from an outsiders perspective

should be interesting to see what carolina gets

2 first then ?

If it's happening it's like Dadonov , younger roster players that aren't the big guns , picks and other prospects. I can't see Stars moving Robo , Hintz , Johnston or Harley . They're the ones carrying the team. Also no defensive roster player going back like Bichsel because we're paper thin on defense and can't afford to lose anyone back there right now.
