Trade Deadline Thread: Chaos Simmering

[Peter Griffin]

Never understood this site's moderation.

I think they just didn’t want to deal with the fallout which I understand. The Pens poster thumping his chest all week about how Vancouver HAD to include Hoglander or no deal was insufferable.

 

[God]

Hoglander was never going to be traded for Guentzel. He's a Hagel-type asset right now.

Given that that's what Guentzel went for, I suspect the Toffoli price won't be that high.

Nadeau is who I would have wanted from Carolina. Quality over quantity.

Thats bannable for slander!

He was putting on quite the show too

 

[DimitriL07]

The boys buzzing tonight makes me want to add something even more now,
Let’s get cooking you bald sexy bastard!

 

[BoHorvat 53]

One of the reporters were suggesting Toffoli's return could be a 1st + an A/B prospect - whoever that was needs to get their credentials taken away and should be considered a joke looking at what Guentzel just went for

 

[PG Canuck]

I got banned too. Just posted lol Dubas. Pens fans are down bad

Same. That Ryder71 guy ended up looking like a complete moron after an entire week of garbage.

Lekkermaki 1st!!!!

 

[andora]

I like how ty smith was just snuck in there too.. never know

 

[Orca Smash]

Have to wonder if theres any unwillingness to trade with rutherford and allvin, I know someone reliable claimed the flames didnt want to trade with treliving unless they were blown away. Sounded like the higher ups were not happy he left.

No idea though. Pure speculation.

Although I bet rangers fans and florida fans are saying the same thing wondering why they couldnt beat that package.

 

[andora]

There has to be a dubas / lube joke

I really don't like what the Penguins got for Guentzel but it really comes to personal preference. They got 3 of Carolina's top-10 prospects (according to Scott Wheeler) but didn't get any of the upper echelon prospects. Bunting is a good player on a fine contract and probably fits in really well next to Crosby like he did with the Maple Leafs' stars. Picks are a big load of meh and should mean nothing to the Hurricanes.

I'm not surprised that the Hurricanes pulled the trigger and were able to offer up the biggest package. Lots of quantity over quality like with the Trochek trade from a few years ago. This feels like a baseball trade.

 

[Donuts]

Thats all for guentzel ..toffoli should fetch less

Woo + 4th. Get it done allvinn

 

[Vector]

Also, no top-10 team prospects had been traded until the last two trades: Jack Thompson (#3 on Tampa Bay), Ponomarov, Koivunen, and Lucius (6,7, & 9 on Carolina).

 

[aquaweenie]

Let’s move now JR

 

[DimitriL07]

Idk what this does with Toffoli. Maybe NJ’s gm sees that return and is like might as well just keep him.

 

[MS]

Wow, they didn’t even get a 1st in all likelihood.

Bunch of B/C level prospects.

Awful return for Pit after all the big talk.

 

[Bonham]

How do the Pens not get a guaranteed first in a trade like that?

Seems very underwhelming considering what was being proposed the last few days.

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

Cruz Lucius. Sweet name.

Its dubas - this guy is death by a thousand cuts

Seems like Dubas did a Benning and considered a negative-value asset in Bunting to be a big prize.

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

Get blown out 6-0 to hated rivals. Get horrible return for best asset.

Solid day for the Penis.

 

[Baby Pettersson]

I feel like we could have beat that package still

Definitely quantity over quality. Better fit for the canes since we definitely are the inverse of that.

 

[ahmon]

Nadeau is how I would have wanted from Carolina. Quality over quantity.

no kidding, probably rather Nadeau than those 3 they got.
Carolina really didn't pay a high price at all

 

[Cancuks]

One of the reporters were suggesting Toffoli's return could be a 1st + an A/B prospect - whoever that was needs to get their credentials taken away and should be considered a joke looking at what Guentzel just went for

• 2022-Feb-14 Traded from Montreal Canadiens to Calgary Flames for Emil Heineman, Tyler Pitlick, conditional round 1 pick in the 2022 draft and round 5 pick in the 2023 draft
• 2023-Jun-27 Traded from Calgary Flames to New Jersey Devils for Yegor Sharangovich and round 3 pick in the 2023 draft

He won't get what he did in 2022. Probably a 2nd + B prospect.

Sometimes the answer is pretty simple, Dubas is a dud
