GDT: Trade and Free agent Rumours thread | Chayka off-season edition

[Superstar]

I wonder if the Leafs and Wild could hook up here if they were in on Tkachuk pretty heavily.

Makes you wonder...

Makes you think there's now a 99% chance Larkin is going to the Wilds.

 

[DarkKnight]

Because he went to the White House when he won the medal. Like ever other gold medalist ever? It's the people's house. Not the president.

Maybe dig a little deeper, it's way more than that bud lol.

 

[Leaffan1991]

which American is next to be traded?
Larkin, Helly, Werenski, Matthews?

 

[SprDaVE]

Dylan Larkin is 100% going to the wild then. They must have focused on brady first.

Offer the same or similar package to Larkin

They have a huge center need so makes a ton of sense

 

[Crazy Monkey]

Matthews is a little different than the rest of these guys, as much as he acts like he had an attitude in interviews. He likes the limelight, I don't see him enjoying a Florida or Tampa. He would go to a hockey market where the lights will be bright if he ever does leave here.

But realistically speaking with Florida loading up, If I had to take a guess Matthews and McDavid team together in 2 years. Where that maybe... who
Knows

To me, Matthews does not come across as an asshole and is actually a decent human from a good family. Brady and Matthew come across as the entitled, slimy all American white boys that are frankly gross humans

Knies, hopefully, if this is the return for a power forward who got to choose where he is going...

 

[Jmo89]

Even if the Americans from the Olympic team have stench to them like @Stephen says, they're still not doing scumbag moves like Marner. It was the Canadian who got to play for his hometown team who screwed his team over the most.

Side topic, Good for Bobby McMann on getting that contract, but that's an awful deal for Seattle, continue to pay top dollar for average players.

I said earlier, that franchise is so poorly ran.

 

[Leaffan1991]

After seeing all of this occurring why would we want to get Rid of Knies who actually really likes it here and wants to stay?
Unlike Matthews who's 50/50 on what he wants. We should keep players who actually want to be here

 

[Rare Jewel]

Well, there it is.


Bobby McMann, nearly $6m...

 

[1specter]

I hate this f***ing division. Ottawa is a cuck team

 

[Superstar]

Can the Panthers fit them all in?

Matthews had never given a single indication he doesn’t want to be here.

 

[Duffman955]

Sign Ross Johnston for the league minimum. Need someone like that for select games

Ya play him like 30 games a year against Panthers, Bruins, Tampa and MTL

They paid him like a 2nd liner, last couple years he’ll be paid like a 3rd liner. I think it’s a great deal for both

I figured he was getting $5.5

I actually think it is a pretty fair deal.

 

[MSZ]

Oh my, I have been busy all day and just found out about this news. The Sens should just fold and move to Houston already.

 

[Menzinger]

That Brady return really isn't all that great. 2 of those 1sts are going to be pretty late......

And what are the Sens going to do with the rest of their guys who are entering their primes? Seems like they're going to have to start trading those picks for win now assets unless they look to really blow things up

Includes assets such as:
2029 1st
2030 2nd

I don't think they have a choice...they want to keep the fan interests and the UFA crop is not great this year.

Seattle is an organization panicking to try and get better but they keep fixating on mid-tiered guys.

Wonder if the Leafs could exploit that

[LeafChief]

I'm crying laughing watching all these Sens bloggers post their videos to Twitter. They are absolutely shocked. Who would have thought a moron like Tkachuk would be dying to get to the southern US.

 

[OVO16]

Outside of Johnston we need to add guys who can both skate and play the physical game

Boone Jenner
Mason Marchment
AJ Greer
Brandon Duhaime
Colton Sissons
Ryan Lomberg

 

[Buckley]

The endless Ottawa rebuild...sad.

The harsh truth is that it's a franchise that never should have existed. Forever losing money and spinning its wheels on the ice.
