GDT: Trade Deadline Day

[Divine]

Throughout this whole fan created saga, it's been widely reported that no, they have not and that they don't want to.

You sure about that?

There’s no way that’s real. I cannot see them ever asking him to do that

There are other reports that Carolina didn’t want to trade within conference, so one of the reports is false.

It’s confirmed. He was asked to waive. He declined.

 

[Rocker13]

Treliving said he was going to rebuild the D and he did just that. What an incredible job.

McCabe - Tanev
Rielly - Carlo
OEL - Myers/Hakanpaa (if he can play)

So much better than anything we've seen over the Matthews era.

They still need an offensive dman, but yes solid d core

Should have gotten Karlsson for Dewar and Timmins

i could honestly see that happening in offseason for 50% retention if Marner walks

That’s big. He had an opportunity and for some reason didn’t take it?

I’m guessing Carolina wanted an extension done and he wasn’t willing to sign one.

Doubt Carolina was forcing an extension given that the player they're trading was going to leave as a UFA anyway

Maybe, but if Carolina was the destination, why wouldn’t he go?

I’d would also think that they learned their lesson and wanted a guarantee.

They aren't getting a guarantee for a rental. They wanted a win-now player and had to give up on it because they had no leverage.

They'd have been better off trying to re-sign Marner than Stankoven and 2 late 1st's. They did not want Marner extended. They did not even have the opportunity to talk to Marner because he said no to the possibility of going there. Friedman reported that Carolina was the one who wanted Marner.

 

[JEI]

I'd put money on him coming back to this moment if he walks.

Looking forward to the off-season, the only real competition will be for the 3RD spot. Also nice that there’s depth signed for +2/3 years on the cheap (Myers/Benoit/Rifai and one more year with Benning in a pinch).

I’d love Dante Fabbro in that slot, though it’s hard to guess what the market would offer him. Or maybe Topi has a big summer.

No likely he didn't want to move to red neck country .. and owner of canes is cheap cheap cheap .. think of Jacobs on steroids' .. all these kids know it
