Confirmed with Link: Trade deadline thread

[Malkinstheman]

Imagine if Carolina flips a first and Stankoven for Rakell

 

[Jaded-Fan]

It’s going to be nice to have prospects again.

17 picks in the next three years in the first three rounds. Should be able to get at least a handful of NHL players out of that.

Its a pure numbers game given how difficult it is projecting NHL players at age 17. Dubas is playing the game.

NHL Draft Pick Probabilities

Whenever an NHL draft is approaching, the excitement level and hype around the players go through the roof. It’s an exciting time for sure but it seems like most people don’t have realistic expectations when it comes to the draft. To help with that, I decided to

Carolina has taken two big swings and come up empty.

Guentzel trade last year, couldn't re-sign him.

Rantanen trade this year, can't even get past the deadline with him.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

I don't think it happens today to be honest!

I think Gryz, and maybe Acciari / Heinen move for depth

I also wouldn't be shocked if he traded a pick or 2 today to acquire a young player

Yeah I said the other day that I doubt Dumbass would trade Rak

This org is so frustrating to support

Stankovan is a good player despite his size. I watched him live in Columbus a few weeks back. Makes something happen on every shift.

Canes didn’t do half bad given the situation.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Nadeau or Morrow as the centerpiece for Rakell or piss off.

Bring back Jordan Stallllll!!!

I imagine it's gotta be a hard decision as a top tier player to give the rest of your career to such a boring, cheap overrated team so I get it.

After missing out on the two biggest UFAs for two years straight, Carolina getting a guy signed long term like Rakell makes too much sense.

Give me a 1st + Stank

Completely agree. I don’t particularly like Dubas but he’s doing this right at the moment.

 

[The Old Master]

we can take those fir

we can take those 2-1sts for rake

Feel like it would be Nadeau and one of the 1sts that Carolina just got. They'd want to keep Stankoven.

 

[IcedCapp]

Unfortunately, I don’t think the difference between Raks and Rants is only a 1st. We’d get a 1st and a lesser player. Doubt they even do Stank straight up

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

I guess the hope is that Rakell has this kinda season next year and you can trade him then, or you can deal him at the draft. Both situations seem foolishly optimistic to me, but eh.

 

[Empoleon8771]

This feels like Dubas negotiating through the media. Up your offer or you're not getting him.

 

[Fogel]

Stankoven, 2 1sts, 2 3rds for Rantanen was a nice plan B for the Canes.

Go see my "PensXYZ Guide to the TDL" and hang your head in shame.

100% not trading Rakell for 2 late Dallas 1sts.

The Penguins have 17 top-3 round picks in the next 3 drafts. They need young NHLers or top prospects if they're trading Rakell. They have plenty of high picks already.

I want to fleece them so bad, not only Stankoven and a 1st, I want another top prospect like Morrow or Nadeau on top of that. Rakell is signed another 3 years at a great cap, pay up bitches!!

Excuse me, it's called manifesting

Feels like Yohe pretending he knows something, but leaving himself an out no matter what happens.

Do you just not know who Stankoven is lol

 

[Bishop7979]

Rakell for Nemec please?
