Confirmed Trade: [SEA/DAL] Mason Marchment for 2025 4th, 2026 3rd

[Turin]

No salary retained.

Dallas has their backs against the wall.

Yea but the cap is not a problem right now. He's not wildly expensive and brings an element that a lot of teams lack

 

[KrakenSabresMike]

Dallas need to get the cap space and people underestimate the attraction of Seattle as a city and they’re ridiculously nice arena and practices plus proximity to Vancouver… and no state income taxes

 

[Mogo]

What a steal by Kraken

 

[OrrNumber4]

Marchment had an NTC, so it's quite possible that many of the teams that "beat" this offer were on that list.

 

[Maurice of Orange]

How do we sign Granlund? Not sure I agree with this lineup.

What's the cap hit of this roster?

How was Dumba... dumped?

One of the bottom feeders will probably take RD Dumba for FC just to stay above the cap floor.

Without Dumba Dallas would have around 8.7 mil to sign Granlund + others.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Absolute steal for Seattle, maybe Toronto is on his 10 team no trade and there is nothing he could have done.

But on the surface Treliving missed out here.

 

[TotalHomer]

Good memories of him in FLA but he was terrible in the playoffs this year.

 

[Jared Grayden]

Why was it Marchment being moved? You want this player in the playoffs.

I hope this was sarcasm.

 

[The Duck Knight]

This is low. I wonder if this has to do with past trades

Really isn't. It's what a trade looks like when you have no leverage and/or trade protection involved. Similar to the Stastny/Schmidt/Fleury/Pacioretty trades Vegas made to clear cap.

 

[JeffP]

if only he could have reigned in taking penalties and/or kept his scoring touch
i was prepared to be keeping him with a new coach to talk sense to him

diet tkachuk without the scoring or the flavor

 

[Ivan Friggin Drago]

Pittsburgh will gladly take on Matt Dumbas full cap hit next year for that 2026 3rd rounder

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Surprised no other team offered more

Well he does have a 10 team no trade clause So maybe some teams did and he wouldn't waive.

Regardless I have a VERY hard time believing THIS was the best offer for a big top 6 20+ goal scoring LW

 

[The don godfather]

Jim nill is overrated.

 

[Aashir]

Why the f*** did we not beat this offer?

I thought the same thing for the leafs

What a laughable return

 

[Bubbles]

I swear Seattle are kings of the "send a bunch of crap" and get a decent player trades. Didn't they get Kakko and Bjorkstrand for similar capital?

 

[gprep93]

The 4th Seattle gave up originally belonged to Dallas. It went from Dallas to NYR in 2022 as part of the Lundkvist trade, and then from NYR to Seattle in 2024 in the Wennberg trade.

 

[SEALBound]

Great trade for the Kraken. Decent Bjorkstrad replacement. At the same time, Dallas gets to send him to a place where he's not likely coming back to bite them.

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

Steal by Seattle. Some say an improvement, but I think this keeps them where they were this season.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

He was putrid in the playoffs. The Stars had a lot of passengers this post-season, but all throughout the Stars-Jets series I thought to myself "man I'm sure glad that guy isn't on my team". The dives were non-stop, the refs clearly hate him, his production was awful. Just a roach of a player. I'm not surprised the return sucked.

 

[Kcb12345]

solid trade for SEA... the guy hits a lot and block the occasional shot and is a half decent offensively.

Will likely net them a better return in 8 months

Not as physical of a player as you'd think. Throws the occassional hit but it isn't consistent

 

[Zirakzigil]

Excellent trade for the Kraken

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Kind of surprising Nill didn't try to get rid of Dumba first so he had some leverage for this trade.

 

[NoShowWilly]

Good little piece of work for seattle. Even if just for one year..probably flip him for more if things go awry.

 

[trellaine201]

Wow he came pretty cheap IMO. Mind you he only has 1 year left on his contract. Maybe his 19pts in 59 playoff games hurt his value?

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

Well I said a couple hours ago Marchment had positive value. I was right but way underestimated how little of positive value he would have.
